Flex Builder: Process terminated

Mar 10, 2009
  1. Is your Flex builder throwing the error "Process terminated without establishing connection to debugger" when your try to launch your Air Application?
  2. Did you recently upgrade your SDK or the entire Flex Builder application, maybe to SDK 1.3?
  3. Are you working with a pre-existing project?

Open up your projects "projectName-app.xml" file in your source root. The second line will most likely be:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.1">

Change it to:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/1.5">

Your project should run just fine on recompile

That 1.1 -> 1.5 change did the trick for me!

I spent quite some time installing/reinstalled AIR files trying to figure out what the problem was!

Thanks a lot!

That line change didnt work for me but i got some help from this to point me in the right direction... I dont have a clue what was wrong in my projectName-app.xml. It just stopped to work suddently. i didnt do any changes there for sure. Anyway I deleted my projectName-app.xml , created new project, renamed newprojectName-app.xml as old projectName-app.xml and copied that to my old project folder. Maybe this helps someone.
