Flash problem on FreeBSd 8.0 AMD64

O

overmind

Hello,

I've installed Flash using tutorial from How-to section on a FreeBSD 8.0, amd64 and I don't have a clue why is not working.

On my i386 system it works ok.

The error I got when I launch firefox (3.6.2) is:

Code: 
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin
/libflashplayer.so [/usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so: unsupported
file layout]

I have the kernel compiled with support for i386 and I have lib directory for 32 bits version. Any Idea what should I try?
 
Not quite understand why engage 32bit libraries on 64 for flash. Native 64bit ones work just fine.
Anyway I had something similar as mess after upgrade. I deleted all the symlinks to libflashplayer.so, then checked if linux_enable="YES" is in my /etc/rc.conf and linprocfs mounted in /etc/fstab, then returned to
Code: 
# /etc/rc.d/abi start
# /etc/rc.d/sysctl start
# exit
% nspluginwrapper -v -i /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
Everything worked then.
 
Kind of works now. Still i have that error, and from time to time i also got:

Code: 
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** WARNING:(/usr/ports/www/nspluginwrapper/work/
nspluginwrapper-1.2.2/src/npw-wrapper.c:2534):invoke_NPP_HandleEvent: assertion failed:
(rpc_method_invoke_possible(plugin->connection))

And for a while firefox freezes.

@zeiz: I've done all things you've mentioned.

Maybe this is "normal" behavior? I can see that error by launching Firefox from command Line. It appears after a while.
 
I'm a newbie under freebsd, but I installed flash (working great with firefox) simply like this
Code: 
pkk_add -r -v swfdec-plugin

and it works without any errors.
 
It is working, as they described in that how-to you've mentioned. Still i got those error, if I run Firefox from console, but at least it works.
 
What happens if you run # portsclean -C
The warning you've posted related to .../work directory that supposed to be deleted after installation.
 
For me gnash is reasonable solution if your main aim is watching videos. Advanced Flash projects including flash games and apps which require latest version won't work though.
