I am making a starling app in flash builder 4.7 in actionscript 3 as mobile actionscript project. Everything was going fine until I decided that I wanted to change the name of the project and the name of the document class. Then I started getting the error message. I have already looked at a few posts, tried what they suggested, and still get the error when I try to debug it.

Error Message:

Process terminated without establishing connection to debugger.

initial content not found

Launch command details: "/Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.7/eclipse/plugins/com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722/AIRSDK/bin/adl" -runtime "/Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.7/eclipse/plugins/com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722/AIRSDK/runtimes/air/mac" -profile mobileDevice -screensize 640x1116:640x1136 -XscreenDPI 326 -XversionPlatform IOS /Users/bobolicious3000/Documents/Aclown/RuMenusDMT/bin-debug/HelloDMT2-app.xml /Users/bobolicious3000/Documents/Aclown/RuMenusDMT/bin-debug

What I have tried already:

  • Changing the parameter in the xml descriptor file: It was:

[This value will be overwritten by Flash Builder in the output app.xml]

and I changed it to a lot of things including:

<content>RuMenusDMT.swf</content>

Nothing worked.

  • Changing the header of the xml file.

I am use AIR 4.0 swc, and the xml file header looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/4.0">
  • Cleaning the project

I normally like flash builder, but this is really giving me a hard time.

  • Alright, if no one has any ideas I may need to just make a new project... – Jimothy Mar 13 '14 at 14:46
  • Ok fine. I am making a new project. But someone from Adobe should really look into this because you really should be able to change project names without the entire thing crashing down... – Jimothy Mar 13 '14 at 21:37

What worked for me was restoring my project's "bin-debug" folder (the directory where my compiled application is output) to a previous revision. Personally, I'm running Windows 7, so I just used the OS' revision control.
