Question

Could you please help.
I am using the django-amf-gateway application (http://bitbucket.org/wolever/django-amf-gateway).

I defined the gateway this way:

from django_amf_gateway import register_amf_service
from goserver.models import Game

class ChangeService(object):
    def state(self):
        game = Game.objects.get(id = 1)
        return game.move_number


register_amf_service('state', ChangeService, [Game])

And when I called the service from mxml this way:

updateService.state();

<mx:RemoteObject id="updateService" endpoint="{Config.updateGateWay}" destination="state">
    <mx:method name="update" result="onSuccess(event)" fault="onFault(event)" />
</mx:RemoteObject>

I got an exception:

> [RPC Fault
> faultString="[MessagingError
> message='Destination 'state' either
> does not exist or the destination has
> no channels defined (and the
> application does not define any
> default channels.)']"
> faultCode="InvokeFailed"
> faultDetail="Couldn't establish a
> connection to 'state'"]   at

Answer 1

Either the mx:RemoteObject method name is wrong or the Python code needs to be updated:

class ChangeService(object):
    def update(self):
        game = Game.objects.get(id = 1)
        return game.move_number

Note the change from ‘state’ to ‘update’.
