Help needed!

[Unregistered]

Ok, I'm stumped. I have been fighting with this thing for days on end and working into the night... but I cannot get Flash Media Server to work.

I would love to call tech support, but they won't help because I don't have a support package...

I'd be willing to hire a consultant to set the server up - stephanie@reddoormarketing.net

Here is what is happening:

We have installed FMS and used all of the default settings.

I created a "sample" folder under the applications folder. I also added a _defInst_ folder:
C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash Media Server 2\applications\sample\_defInst_

I then went to Flash 8 and created a test Flash Document and attempted to import the flv video file... however I get the following error:


================================================
Failed to load FLV: rtmp://[IPAddress]/sample/sample.flv
================================================

I have also tried - rtmp://[IPAddress]/sample/sample (note the omission of the .flv at the end)



What am I missing?

I'm not trying to do anything fancy... I just want a video to play from the server.


I'm extremely disappointed that Adobe did not provide a sample with the FMS install.

Please Help!

Here, give this a shot, they've got a sample file you can download http://www.flashcomguru.com/articles/fms2_basics.cfm I'll see if I can track down anything else on the matter.
