Remote Debugging won't connect - actionscript-3

I sort of make shift followed this guide on how to setup remote debugging. Since I am using Adobe Animate to compile my app I assume it has done the majority of the build steps already as I get a similar screen described.
I don't understand though. Here I have port forwarding up on my router so that it goes to my PC. I have TCP port 7935 up and open. Windows firewall on or off doesn't seem to make difference. Windows firewall even prompted me to allow or deny fdb after I ran it. I can't get my phone to connect via remote debugging. I want to be able to send this to my client who is having issue with the app so I can see what's going on under the hood instead of relying on a giant sum of try/catch statements and screenshots. Any help?
I tried a dummy domain and it seems to know that it can't connect to it. When I try mine or my IPv4 it doesn't let me connect. It just freezes up the app.

I don't know whether it works or not in Animate CC, but it works via Flash Builder. I'm using Android real device and I have Android SDK tools installed on my PC
Yes, I have followed that tuts from official Adobe docs, but that doesn't work
First: Simply connect your device to your PC
Actually , you can debug your app remotely as long as your device has been connected with your PC. This step, doesn't necessarily requires FDB.
In my case , all I need was things like
adb connect 192.168.xx.xx:port
this will connect your Android device with your PC on your default network .
Second, set debug setting over network
You've done it in Animate CC, with addition you might want to check "install application on the connected device'
Third, just debug as usual
You can get all those debugging stuff including traces

Allow Chrome app through windows firewall

I am learning to make chrome app which will receive UDP packets from remote device. All works perfectly fine, however, in order to receive packets from remote device I need to turn off windows firewall.
Now the problem is that I do not see a way to add this app to pass firewall exception. Because I only see option to allow Chrome through firewall, not any of its apps.
What is the solution / workaround to this problem?
Thanks
Since I didn't get any answer, the best possible solution I could find so far is to add the port on which my chrome app will listen to firewall inbound rules. I didn't know this was possible until i read this article https://www.thewindowsclub.com/block-open-port-windows-8-firewall
However I still don't consider it the right solution because lets say I publish my app online for other people, it will not be convenient for them to be adding rules to their firewalls.
I am sure there must be a better solution.

Using getUserMedia() on insecure origins in Chrome

I am developing a webpage that uses camera. When I test in Chrome in my local network, camera doesn't work and I get warning in the console:
getUserMedia() no longer works on insecure origins. To use this feature, you should consider switching your application to a secure origin, such as HTTPS. See link for more details.
In the link provided there is an instruction to set some flags in Chrome. So I tried. My command looks like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure="192.168.0.15" --user-data-dir=c:\chrome-dev-profile
But when I run Chrome I get this message:
You are using an unsupported command-line flag: --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure. Stability and security will suffer.
What am I doing wrong?
Is there another way I can test in local network without setting up https server? I need this just for development.
Luka,
I've run into this bug just yesterday. I have not found out how to get Chrome to honor that flag on the command line yet. But I did find a workaround that works for my case.
I'm running my web services on a Linux machine that is running an ssh server. I'm testing on windows with chrome, and used putty to connect to the linux box from windows and then created a "local port forward" to make my remote linux box's ipaddress:port appear on localhost:port on windows. Depending on your platform this workaround may work for you. This approach isn't too cumbersome if you only have a few ports to forward.
In my particular case my setting for putty looked like
L8080 localhost:8080

Remote Control via TeamViewer on a Google Compute VM Instance

I am running a Windows Server VM Instace on Google Compute Services... I can access the instace via the "Windows Remote Desktop" no problem... I could install Team Viewer on the instance...
Because of Firewall issues I cannot run "Windows Remote Desktop" from my desktop to access that VM (google compute) Instance... Reason of why I installed Team Viewer on that VM instance...
The funny thing is that I can access that VM instance through Team Viewer Only, as long as it is connected through "Windows Remote Desktop" to a separate 3rd computer... (4G internet outside the firewall --of desktop trying to access the VM Instace through Team Viewer--).
Even if I minimize the "Windows Remote Desktop"on my laptop it will cut the connection through TeamViewer between the VM cloud instance and my Desktop computer...
Any help or ideas in there? It seems that either Team Viewer isn't able to start or somehow either the VM Windows Server screen only runs when the "Windows Remote Desktop" is running....
As I get this message:
"The screen cannot be captured at the moment. This is probably due to fast user switching or a disconnected/minimized Remote Desktop Session."
I did a complete version installation of TeamViewer as administrator, running on a Windows Server on google compute VM.
Hopefully someone out there can help me! I don't know if it may be part of the Google Compute Services Instance settings so as to limit the remote desktop only to the native "Windows Remote Desktop" program... Or perhaps a setting were since it's a VM the screen is de-activated when the "Windows Remote Desktop" program is off or minimized etc...??
My main problem is having TeamViewer work without having to initiate the native Windows RDP... In order for TeamViewer do it's job and take its place... as in the place where I am located (my desktop computer) the firewall blocks Windows RDP but does not block TeamViewer's.
I tried changing the listening port to different numbers....
According to the instructions here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306759 and here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304304/
Unfortunately.. when I changed it and then rebooted the Win Server 2008 VM, and checked to see if it made the change... I noticed it goes back to be on the same port again.... (of course to connect I had to do it through the original port)...
So it changes it but on rebooting it goes back to be on the same port again... I don't know if it's either because the new port was being used or there is a policy somewhere directing it always to the original port again...
I enabled those ports also to work for RDP in the Google Compute Instance interface, but still it made no difference...
It doesn't seem TeamViewer has a setting to change the port it connects with etc...
Hopefully I can find someone knowing about this issue.... The AWS instance used to work fine with LogMe In at the time.... I may end up using AWS (Amazon Web Services) again as Google Compute Srvs. won't do the job... but it's much cheaper than the AWS isntance... Thanks for helping...
In my case it happened due to slower network speed on the other side, of which I intend to take session.

How to run an Android VM on Google Compute Engine?

I am trying to run an Android VM on GCE. I have followed this tutorial to build my own vm image from Android 4.4 x86 iso image. I could start an instance using the image I built, but I cannot SSH to it or I couldn't adb connect to it. Can anyone help me how to make the Android VM work on GCE?
I'm trying to do the same and am wondering whether or not the fact that the Android x86 images are all 32 bit whereas GCE apparently only supports 64 bit images.
EDIT: Ravello Systems seems to have a KVM-like solution that is deployed to GCE as a custom hypervisor image that sits on top of your Android VM image, providing a nested virtualized environment. That's the only way I was able to test this out. Check the following blog article.
PS: I did install an SSH server on the image before uploading as well but I don't think the VM is even booting as I can't ping it either.
The tutorial mentions that you have to make sure that the image contains an SSH agent so that you'll be able to access it after it finishes installing. The Android 4.4 x86 doesn't have any SSH component so it's expected that it doesn't allow SSH connections. You'll need to add an SSH agent in the image in order to make SSH-able.

Unix: Keeping an instance of flash player running as a daemon...?

I'm pretty new to unix operating systems. I'm running CentOS 6.5, and I need to run 1 (or more ideally) instances of Flash Player continually in the background, I've no idea how to do this.
The reason is because in Flash I'm using the RTMFP protocol to send data between clients P2P, and it would be useful for me to have a few test clients running on my server all the time.
How would I go about doing this? The flash program needs to be visually navigated through its menus to get it into the state required. Currently I'm just using putty, what can I install to get a GUI to do this, and how might I go about getting Flash Player (10.1 up) to work?
Thanks a lot!
I think I have an idea what you're trying to do. To clarify, you want to have several flash applications running in browsers or via a flash player to act as test users to test your RTMFP protocol?
If this is the case, use VNC (something like running multiple instances of x11vnc on different ports) to log into several GUI accounts on your system and run the application (Linux is multiuser by default). You can close out the VNC without ending your session. This should work for what I think you're trying to do.
Hope this helps.
