Persistent Shared Object not being persistent

server chap fixed it in no time

as JayCharles suggested earlier FMS was accessing the folder as one user, however the owner of that folder was set to another user

changing the owner of the folder to that of the user used by FMS solved the problem (though being a stranger to linux I couldn't tell you the exact steps to do this)

hope this helps

I am having a similar problem. I created an app that works like a champ on Flash Media Server, running on a Windows 2000 platform. But when I run the same app on a Linux platform, neither a new instance nor the shared object is saved.

Here is the code I'm using. Like I said. Works on Windows 2000; not on Linux.

var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/appname/appinstance");
var my_so:Object = new Object();
nc.onStatus = function(info) {
trace(info.code);
my_so = SharedObject.getRemote("cuz", nc.uri, true);
my_so.connect(nc);
};
/// I enter a string in an input field and send it to a data slot for my_so.
input_txt.onChanged = function() {
my_so.data.myinfo = input_txt.text;
};
/// the onKillFocus event makes sure the information is saved.
input_txt.onKillFocus = function() {
my_so.data.myinfo.flush();
/// the output text shows the information I entered into input_txt.
output_txt.text = my_so.data.myinfo;
};

Like I said, it works in Windows... but not on Linux. Could anyone give me some advice?

Are you also having problems recording streams? I'm wondering if the user FMS is running under doesn't have permission to write to the /applications directory.
