Hi,

I downloaded the free developers edition of FMS2 last week to get my head around it before asking my company to buy it...only trouble is now I cant ping the server or even request server information! I had a look on ever FMS and FlashComm forum I could find to see if anyone else had a similar problem and only found one...

I read this post and realised I had needed to change the date on my local machine afew days earlier to test a Flash app I was working on and now I cant get FMS2 to work properly. The post said I needed to "have a package installed called 'seamonky_nspr' which is on disc 1 of the ES" but seen as I only have the developers edition...there arent any discs?

I've tried restarting the servers, uninstalling FMS, rebooting my machine...even using system restore - but nothing seems to work. Any ideas how I can fix it?

Thanks

    Hi,

    It solved my problem. thanks Darioandrade

    Hello guys. I ran into the same problem and found the solution.
    Using FilemonNT (www.sysinternals.com) I found out that there is a file at
    <Documents and Settings>\All Users\Application Data\fms\
    that has the timestamp info and we are supposed to delete it in order to make the server work again.
    Note that the file has an empty string ("") name (i.e. the file does not have a name).
    I hope Macromedia (Adobe) does not think that this is "hidden" hack to prevent people from messing with the clock.
    I'd really hope that they won't try to throw in another hidden "cookie"...

    ...I dunno what I've done but now it lets me connect for between 10-12 seconds then nothing again. Just thought I'd add that incase it made any difference? cheers
