if you receive this error when trying to establish a local connection, don’t forget to add this to your code :
localconnectioninstance.client=this;
this is for redirecting requests to a different object other than the receiving local connection instance

yeah, when there’s a problem in the URL, you get this error. trace out the url, make sure your assets are in the right place.

Just wanted to add my experience here, I was looping through a bunch of URLs and downloading images from the urls with a Loader, I was getting this error and it turned out some of the URLs had changed and no longer contained the data I was trying to download.

Simple tip, as juanargento says, catch the IOErrorEvent and add a breakpoint on it – when you hit it, look through the data to see if you’re trying to download a null value!

The same issue happened to me when i was trying to call the save() method of the FileReference class. The workaround that I found to solve this issue is add a listener for the IOErrorEvent and just catch the exception that is trown:

Here my code snipped:

var byteArray:ByteArray = myPDF.save(Method.LOCAL);
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();
fileRef.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError, false, 0, true);
fileRef.save(byteArray, “MyReport.pdf”);

private function onIOError(event:Event):void {
//do nothing here
}

Hope this helps somebody else.

ok, just solved the problem,
my code before was
var xmURL:URLRequest=new URLRequest(“C:/Users/frankshan/Downloads”);
it’s suppose to be
var xmURL:URLRequest=new URLRequest(“C:/Users/frankshan/Downloads/timeline.xml”);

so stupid…. :(
