Debugging and Monitoring Applications > Using the Communication App inspector

Using the Communication App inspector

The Communication App inspector displays a list of the application instances currently running on the server. For any instance that you select, you can view detailed information about its status, including the following:

	A running list of log messages that are generated by the application instance on the server
	Information about the streams and shared objects associated with the instance
	Information about the overall state of the selected application instance, such as total uptime, number of users, and so on

You can also use the Communication App inspector to load and unload application instances.

To open the Communication App inspector, choose Window > Communication App Inspector from within Macromedia Flash MX. On a server machine that doesn't have Flash MX installed, open the app_inspector.html file located in the /flashcom_help/html/admin subdirectory of the Flash Communication Server installation directory.

To use the Communication App inspector, you must have full server administrator privileges or vhost administrator privileges.
