Flash Debugger just started to "Fail to Connect"
I have been using Intellij, Flash, and the Firefox debugger in perfect harmony for the past year and a half.
A few days ago it started to time out.
So I rolled back my project, I must have broken something. Nope still times out on what used to work.
Ah, I installed Node.js, that might have broken something.
Move to another machine, clean Windows 10 Pro install, intellij IntelliJ IDEA 2017.2.1

Still times out, uninstalled and reinstalled Flash debugger, nope.
Uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox (release), nope.
Followed direction in post on how to add a jvm.config to my [Flex SDK]/version/bin, nope.
Any thoughts? I have been beating on this for 2 days and there is not much hair left on my head (not that there was in the first place, but still!)

Found the answer in Firefox 55 release notes:
IDE starts Flash apps as file://, so it doesn't work.
Workaround is to tweak "plugins.http_https_only" option in Firefox (about:config).
Same here. I failed to start any Flash app in Firefox on Windows with Flash Player plugin NPAPI 26 installed (tried both debug and standard versions). I can reproduce the problem without the IDE so it is not IDE-side problem. I tried to compile a simple Flex or ActionScript app from the command line (using Flex SDK 4.16 or AIR SDK 25) - output SWF works fine in Chrome but doesn't work in Firefox. No ideas so far. I guess something is wrong with either Firefox or with Flash Player NPAPI plugin version 26.
Alexander thank you for reproducing. Was driving me crazy.
I had been using the 26 plugin since it was released 7/3/2017 and it was running fine.
Guess I need to make sure automatic updates are off for everything.
I am able to isolate the problem to Firefox version 55, when I uninstalled and reinstalled older version (54).
I am now able to run and debug Flash content.
Robert,
Thanks for the update!
