cfform cannot be initialized

I'm checking the tag cfform in coldfusion, the codes are very simple:

<cfform name="testFrm" format="Flash">
    <cfinput type="text" name="abc" value ="">
</cfform>

But when running it says: "NetworkError: 404 Not Found - .../1405338045.mxml.cfswf"

The form cannot be shown.

Anybody here got this error? Could you help me about this, I have no any clues on this?

Thanks.

If you're using CF11, open the web.xml file in

{CF11}\cfusion\wwwroot\WEB-INF\web.xml and uncomment any configs that have to do with SWF or CFForm. Restart CF and try again.

Had a client with lots of legacy code that needed flash forms and this fixed the 404's for "mxml.cfswf" files for the client, so I figured I'd post here for the sake of anyone else searching on this topic.

I suspect you do not have a /CFIDE virtual directory mapping, which one needs if one is to use things like <cfform>.

Short of having that mapping, one can use <cfajaximport> to specify an alternative location for the resource files that <cfform> requires to work.
