I’m trying to access an mp3′s id3 tags… I keep getting an error when I run try to load any specific mp3. SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation Sound.id3
==========================================
On the start of my application I have a init() function that gets executed on creationComplete. I utilize this function to setup all of my listeners, and request of initial data.
The fix is:
==================
import flash.system.Security; public function init():void{
Security.loadPolicyFile(“http://domainname.com/crossdomain.xml“);
}
I happen to own the domain that I am requesting my mp3′s from, so I also control that crossdomain.xml file, so I want any site to be able to access this domain, so I created my crossdomain.xml file in my web root.
It looks like this:
<?xml version=“1.0″?>
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain=“*” />
</cross-domain-policy>
I tried quite a few different combo’s, I had thought originally that if a crossdomain.xml file existed on the server you were requesting data from that it would automatically be picked up by the flash player… most of the documentation that I found stated this to be the way it worked, but in my situation, it was untrue…
Now I am also aware that by declaring in my crossdomain.xml file “allow-access-from domain=”*”" means that any other domain could access it… but I could restrict that by declaring the file like so:
<?xml version=“1.0″?>
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain=“*.cfwebtools.com” />
</cross-domain-policy>
</code> That would also allow my domain “axel.cfwebtools.com” to access the file.

Thanks!!! I had done everything, but didn’t know where to put the loadPolicyFile.
It really helped me out!!!
Creating crossdomain.xml in my webroot solved the issue I was having – thanks for this post!

You must create a crossdomain.xml file. Solution is here: http://www.flexnedir.com/flex-ve-coldfusion-channel-connect-failed/
