Hi,
What is the version of the flash player(plugin) you are using?
Could you also let us know if you are using the standalone or the plugin version of Flex Builder? If it's plugin, could you let us know what is your JVM version is?

Thanks!

Hello

I'm having the exact same problem with Flex Build 2.0.1 on Vista.

I get this message only after running the debugger once. The first time it works, the second time I attempt to run in debug mode, I get the error message.

It seems that the flash player is holding onto the socket. I upgraded the debug version of Flash Player from r28 to r45 and the same problem happpens.

This also prevents the debugger in the Flash CD3 IDE from working - I get a similar message that the socket needed to debug is not open.

I uninstalled Java 6 and the problem also happens if Eclipse is running under Java 5 (1.5.12).

This is a REALLY annoying problem as I have to keep restarting Eclipse if I want to use the debugger.

Thanks,

August

Hi August,
Can you try running TCPView and give us a dump of the output before and after the first debugging session?
You can download TCPView here:

thanks!

Here's my dumps!

Here's a synopsis of what I see running it in real time:

When I start debugging, these connections are opened:

TCP August-Notebook:7935 August-Notebook:0 LISTENING
TCP August-Notebook:7935 localhost:49346 ESTABLISHED
TCP August-Notebook:49346 localhost:7935 ESTABLISHED

Right after I stop debugging, these connections go into various states

TCP August-Notebook:7935 localhost:49346 CLOSE_WAIT
TCP August-Notebook:49346 localhost:7935 FIN_WAIT2

After about 30 seconds, the connections change to this state:

TCP August-Notebook:49346 localhost:7935 TIME_WAIT

Subsequent attempts to debug result in the JVM_BIND Error.

So, nothing?!?

My story is something like this: I installed NOD32 because I had problems with a virus attaking my Yahoo Messenger and after doing a full scan of my hard drives I get same pb as you guys. First it's working to do my debugging. When I close the debugging session and start it again the error occurs. I have to mention another thing that I just remembered: when I started first time Flex after all the scanning, Windows asked me if I want to unblock the connection! - maybe this is it. I hope someone will see this and post here the solution!

The problem is with NOD32. If I remove NOD32, then the debugger works - so this is not an issue with Flex. A

For those how are having this problem, it seems that the beta version of the next release of NOD32 fixes this issue. You can download it at http://www.eset.eu/download/beta
