On looking back at this post I noticed that the XML shown had been escaped into < and >s at some point, so obviously it would not work as shown. I've corrected that now. It is important to note that you need to replace the default flashpolicy.xml that comes with the download with the code shown in the post for it to work. On following my own instructions I found a couple of gotchas... the command line to start the policy daemon needs to run as super-user (ie , sudo...) or it will not work ( I get an error saying that 'permission denied' though it also says that it is listening. Once I had the policy server daemon running, I tried running the app in this page, but it still came back with a server error, even though the command line said that it had handled a valid request. I realized that I had not started the WiiFlash Server, so I did that, and pressed the 1 & 2 buttons on my wiimote so that it appears in the list of Wiimotes connected in the WiiFlashServerJ panel. NOW it finally worked when I reloaded the page and I was able to control the fish. Here is how the command line conversation went: ~/flash/flashpolicyd/Standalone >: ./flashpolicyd.py --file=../flashpolicy.xml --port=843 Listening on port 843 (13, 'Permission denied') ~/flash/flashpolicyd/Standalone >: sudo ./flashpolicyd.py --file=../flashpolicy.xml --port=843 Password: Listening on port 843 Connection from 127.0.0.1:64006 Valid request received from 127.0.0.1:64006 Sent policy file to 127.0.0.1:64006 Connection from 127.0.0.1:64021 Valid request received from 127.0.0.1:64021 Sent policy file to 127.0.0.1:64021 Connection from 127.0.0.1:64058 Valid request received from 127.0.0.1:64058 Sent policy file to 127.0.0.1:64058 ...
