SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.

When I try to load an external image from a folder called assets, this is the error I get:

SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.

My code is:

looks like a path issue, try installing an event handler for IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR on the loader.contentLoaderInfo for more details. You can check the example at the end of this page: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/LoaderInfo.html. for reference.

I didn't understand the soultion, can you show a code that I can use?

I'm pretty much a beginner

You can try the following in your case. The function ioErrorHandler should give you more details if there is a path issue.

import flash.display.Loader;

import flash.net.URLRequest;

import flash.events.*;

var loader:Loader = new Loader();

loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);

loader.load(new URLRequest("assets/boats.jpg"));

addChild(loader);

function ioErrorHandler(event:IOErrorEvent):void {

          trace("Error: " + event);

}

I got this:

Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2035: URL Not Found. URL: file:///C|/Users/PCName/Desktop/assets/boats.jpg"]

Well that's the problem.

URL Not Found. URL: file:///C|/Users/PCName/Desktop/assets/boats.jpg"

Just check the path, and change your code accordingly, that should work.

I put the full path and it still didn't work:

"C:\Users\PCName\Desktop\assets\boats.jpg"
