I'm got a problem with the amfPHP HelloWorld example in chapter 29 of the Flex
3 Bible. When I atempt to run the example in the Flex 3 Builder I keep getting
the following error message in the console:

[RPC Fault faultString="[MessagingError message='Destination 'amfphp' either
does not exist or the destination has no channels defined (and the application
does not define any default channels.)']" faultCode="InvokeFailed"
faultDetail="Couldn't establish a connection to 'amfphp'"]

I've checked and recheck the instruction in Chapter 29 of Flex 3 Bible and
everything looks ok. When I run the AMFPHP Service Browser and the click
'check' everything works and I get the expected message. The Gateway.php looks
to be in the correct folder and the path given in the serves-config.php file
looks correct. My only thought is that I'm not setting up the channels
correctly and I'm not sure how to check this out.

Hi,

Can you please try following steps in the URL below.

Hope this helps.

First thing you should do when using amfphp is downloading Charles. It shows
you what happens when you call the gateway.php. I can honestly say that Charles
is our best friend when working with remoting.

Thanks for the Link, It helped a lot. By adding it the port # to the
localhost (localhost:80) used in services-config.xml file, the the error went
away. Now it is falling in the log in process. It seems it is not connecting
correctly. I'm not sure if I've done something in my fumble fingered effort to
solve the first problem or not. In any case I'm going to remove everything
I've done and replace it with the original example files form the "Flex 3
Bible".

What is 'Charles' and where do I find it?

Charles is a proxy tool and can be downloaded here:

If you test your app local using WAMP, MAMP or any other setup for a local
webserver, you can monitor the calls to the gateway.php and see what goes wrong
there.
