problems.

Man O man, thanks Geoff.  If it wasn't for you and the people on this
list, I wouldn't even now about things like this.  We, and Adobe, owe
you BIG TIME!

here's the word:

 

"Yes, this is a known issue. We migrated the main sites macromedia.com
to adobe.com Sunday night, and there seems to be a DNS issue where
fpdownload.macromedia.com is incorrectly resolving to an adobe.com IP
address."

 

so for now, I recommend just disabling ExpressInstall, so your users
will see your upgrade message or alternate content, and when the issue
is resolved, flip it back on.

 

(to disable it with swfobject, just remove the 'true' after you specify
the background color in the constructor)

Another person IMed me ealier saying it was down, and he got in  

contact with Emmy Huang, who is the Flash Player product manager at  

Adobe - I haven't confirmed this with her yet, but I guess Adobe is  

migrating the Macromedia servers/urls over to Adobe.com today, so the  

upgrade is broken.

 

I tested on my test expressinstall.html page, and I get the 'download  

failed' dialog as well - normally that page works fine.

 

I'll let you guys know as soon as I get more info from Adobe -- or if  

anyone on this list would like to share more 'official' info, please  

feel free :)

	The macromedia info box pops up, the blue thing spins for a bit,


	then says

	"A download error occurred. Try to download again?" - is this a


	problem with

	the swfobject script or is the Macromedia server down?
