What do you mean by 'hang forever'? Do you mean the browser locks up?
The HTTP response is never sent? -- in which case does any response data
get sent? How is your Struts application configured? Is the .swf file
being served by Struts or directly by Tomcat?

If you're not sure how to answer those questions, I would suggest using
Firebug or some other tool that lets you monitor the HTTP conversation
to get a clearer picture of what's happening.

Laurie,
   
  tks for your advise.
   
  hang forever, ----> browser lockup if use IE
   
  but, if use firefox, just nothing happen(return blank screen), but browser not freeze.
   
  above test under regular Tomcat, which is http://localhost:8080/sample.html ( it contains sample.swf inside)
   
  after test above, check the logfile under /home/apache-tomcat-5.5.23/logs, but not showing anything.
   
  if use regular apache web server, the sample.html(sample.swf) running fine.
   
  any configuration need to make in tomcat before run flash .swf file?
   
  tks in advance again.

That doesn't answer most of my questions. You need to determine what is
being sent to the browser (if anything) when it requests the .swf file
from your web application, then post details of what you find out along
with the relevant configuration details (including web.xml and
struts.xml excerpts).

John,

Install Live HTTP Headers / Header Monitor plugin into Firefox and then
watch the HTTP traffic between your browser and the server.  Your answer
will most likely be there.  My assumption is that the MIME Type .swf is not
enabled in your Tomcat but that is just a wild guess.

regards,

Doug
