If you need to troubleshoot Xcelsius 2008 runtime messages here is another link you might want to check out. I recently ran across an error message “2170” but was not able to find it on my original list of error messages, but then I finally found it.
Click Here for the description of the runtime message.
The solution to the 2170 message when using Xcelsius was provided via YOUR posted comments to my blog. Thank you!!
Most of the time, the issue has to do with the crossdomain.xml file.
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"> <cross-domain-policy> <allow-http-request-headers-from domain="*" headers="*" secure="false" /> <allow-access-from domain="*" secure="false" /> </cross-domain-policy>
For more information about installing the crossdomain.xml file, read my previous article. If you are STILL having problems check out these two posts.

What did you do to fix the error? I’m finding some of my clients are getting this error trying to use web services in an Xcelsius dashboard.
To be totally frank this is still an open question. As soon as we are able to determine the root cause of this message I will let you know. Thanks again for your comments!
I googled 2170 + xcelsius and your page came up. . I’m also having issue with the exact same problem.
Figured it out with the help of Andy on the BusObjs tech support forum (http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/cs/forums/thread/22717.aspx):
The latest version of Flash Player (9.0.124) added a new restriction to the security model. You need to add a new header to the crossdomain.xml file on the server your SWF file is trying to connect to.
Here’s the full crossdomain.xml file we’re using:

I am not able to access this link, can you please send the details on bhosale.vilas@gmail.com
thanks in advance…
Hi Vilas,
I checked and the link does still work. Do you have an SDN account? If not, you should be able to sign up for one. The bottom line is that there are multiple items that cause this message. Either an issue with your crossdomain.xml file, client side permissions for macromedia flash or using RESTful bsp method.
