Hey! Just got a new computer and downloaded FlashDevelop and Flex SDK but when I double click the .as3project file in my project folder, I get this error:

There is an error in XML document (0, 0).

   at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Deserialize(XmlReader xmlReader, String encodingStyle, XmlDeserializationEvents events)
   at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer.Deserialize(Stream stream)
   at FlashDebugger.Util.SerializeXML`1.LoadFile(String filename)
   at FlashDebugger.BreakPointManager.Load()
   at FlashDebugger.PluginMain.HandleEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e, HandlingPriority prority)
   at PluginCore.Managers.EventManager.DispatchEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e)

Edit: And when I hit F5 (run), I get this error:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

   at SourceControl.Actions.ProjectWatcher.HandleTestProject()
   at SourceControl.PluginMain.HandleEvent(Object sender, NotifyEvent e, HandlingPriority prority)

Thanks in advance!

Can you start FlashDevelop normally (with no project)? If so, check that you have set up the links to Flex and to the debug Flash player correctly. This looks like a configuration problem of some kind.

The path in “Installed Flex SDKs” in AS3Context is set to the Flex SDK folder. The “External Player Path” in FlashViewer is set to FlashPlayerDebugger.exe in some long path inside the FlashDevelop folder.

Sounds like your new version of FD is having trouble reading the stored breakpoints or something. Do you really need this project file anyway? You could just create a new one and copy in the source, shouldn’t be too difficult. If you don’t mind, paste the text of your .as3project file or upload it somewhere.

Yeah, I’ll do that. And http://pastebin.com/rHvSWnR0 Edit: And the new project file http://pastebin.com/YVWRxdVU
It works now anyway, as supposed.
