FP 3.2.3 does not work for me - even the example code will not load

Posted: Aug 18, 2010

I have previously had great success using Flowplayer on my site at MarkleyBros.com. Today, I tried to update to flowplayer-3.2.3, and now I cannot get it to work at all!

I unzipped the latest 3.2.3 release into my web server's document root, right in the same directory where 3.1.5 had been.

I then updated all of my code to point to the new versions of the files. However, now, when I try to load any videos, I only get a blank/black screen.

At first, I assumed that the problem was (somehow) related to some API changes from 3.1.5 to 3.2.3. So I started pairing down my page until I had it down to just the basics.

In my frustration, I went back to the example code and tried to make that work. Even the included example is NOT working!

Please help me! I have never had this kind of trouble with flowplayer before! I did purchase a commercial license, but now I'm starting to regret it. :(

We had a broken 3.2.3.zip online for a while. Please redownload the package and it should be OK now. Sorry for this.

Still Broken

I just re-downloaded the zip file from here:

http://releases.flowplayer.org/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.2.3.zip

It is binary-identical to the broken zip file I was using before:

[alex@Pinhead flowplayer]$ md5sum flowplayer-3.2.3.zip broken/flowplayer-3.2.3.zip
3b59b47b980f23df6f74faef52ebf850 flowplayer-3.2.3.zip
3b59b47b980f23df6f74faef52ebf850 broken/flowplayer-3.2.3.zip
[alex@Pinhead flowplayer]$

For reference, I have unzipped this file into [ROOT]/flowplayer_test/flowplayer in my sandbox environment. You can see for yourself that even the included example does not work:

http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_test/flowplayer/example/index.html

I have also uploaded the commercial zip to a different folder, and the included example does not work there either:

http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_test/flowplayer.commercial/example/index.html

Any help in troubleshooting this would be much appreciated.

Thanks

That's the same commercial zip I already downloaded. (I have confirmed the MD5SUMs are the same.) You can see neither included example works for me:

3.2.3 FREE -http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_test/flowplayer/example/index.html

3.2.3 COMMERCIAL -http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_test/flowplayer.commercial/example/index.html

3.1.5 FREE -http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_test/flowplayer-3.1.5/example/index.html

Again, as you can see, FlowPlayer 3.1.5 FREE works fine in this environment, while 3.2.3 FREE and COMMERCIAL do not.

Flowplayer 3.2.4 Still Broken

Posted: Sep 2, 2010

Reply to: » Still Broken, from Anssi
I have just downloaded and unzipped both Flowplayer 3.2.4 and Flowplayer Commercial 3.2.4. Neither one seems to work at all in any browser.

http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_testnew/flowplayer-3.2.4/example/index.html

http://esandbox.markleybros.com/flowplayer_testnew/flowplayer.commercial-3.2.4/example/index.html

I have to say, I'm getting a little frustrated at the lack of support here, given the fact that I have purchased a commercial license for nearly one hundred dollars.

Given the fact that other people are also experiencing this problem, I can no longer imagine that I am doing something wrong. I am going to post something in the bug report forum.

Thanks,
--Alex
