I'm using BlazeDS to display RSS feed items in my Flex SWF.
When I run the SWF under Eclipse's Tomcat 6 plugin, the SWF gets
RSS feed data from external web sites, like Yahoo. However, when I
deploy the same SWF file to a test server running Tomcat 6 as a
service, I get the following error:
[Flex]01/21/2009 10:13:41.006 [ERROR] [Message.General]

I'm using BlazeDS 3.2 libraries deployed in a non-turnkey
Tomcat instance. Line 320 from the HTTPProxyService file is:
((HTTPProxyDestinationControl)destination.getControl()).incrementInvokeHTTPCount();All of my other Remoting services work over the same AMF
channel from both of the environments. What could be causing the
null pointer? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
