Troubleshooting

  • If the Flash browser is working but it shows an empty map, see if you can load your freemind file in a webbrowser. I had to rename the .mm to .xml (and adapt the .html) because my provider won't serve file of which the mime type can't be inferred. It didn't know how to handle mm-files and instead showed a 404 error page.
  • for an "Apache" server, adding the following lines in the "htaccess" file may resolve the problem :

AddType application/x-shockwave-flash swf
AddType application/x-freemind mm

  • if your mindmap is called, for instance, "work_map.mm", change its name into "index.mm" : it will work
  • The browser works fine. I tried to put all FreeMind related files (.mm, .jpg) in a subfolder "data" and changed the line to

fo.addVariable("initLoadFile", getMap("data/index.mm"));

and everything worked fine, except images. After editing the .mm files and adding "data/" to all image URLs everything worked fine again.

  • If you encounter the following error "Flash plugin or Javascript are turned off.", check the following:

1) Verify that the latest version of Flash is installed, and Javascript is enabled.

2) Verify your version of Flash. If you have version 10, and have an older copy of freeMindFlashBrowser.zip (pre Oct 2008) installed, there may be an issue with your version of flashobject.js (See the message in the Open Discussion forum for more details. To fix the issue, re-download the Flash browser and update your copy of flashobject.js.
