Flash Remoting Throws an Error - BabelFish

[ColdFusionKing]

I downloaded the Babelfish sample application source code from the macromedia website:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/flashremoting/consuming_ws_using_cfmx/

Extracted the code in my CFMX

http://wwwroot

folder. Opened the file: Babelfish.fla in Flash MX, brought up the NetConnectionDebugger and exported the flash movie. For those of you who have downloaded this sample application, when I click on the 'Translate' button, I get the following error.

The gateway connection is : myService = gateway_conn.getService("

http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/BabelFishService.wsdl",

this);

Its not just this example, any exmaple that uses a wsdl to connect to webservice fails. I can however connect to a webservice if I use a cfc, for ex:
googleService = gateway_conn.getService("google_search.googleService", this);

I read this article on the macromedia site:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/enable_flash_webservices.htm

What is says is that by default access from Macromedia Flash to web services using the Flash Gateway is disabled by default in ColdFusion MX Updater 3. I did exactly what it said in there to enable access and now I get a different error: NetConnection.Call.BadVersion error.

I don't understand why this is disabled in the first place. I have updater 3 installed and the webserver is IIS on win2k

I would appreciate your help

Regards,
Allan
