ScriptUIFlexServer and Flashlog.txt

There seems to be a problem with PhotoShop CS 5( running x64 here) and the latest flash debug player.

If you are running FP 10.1.53.64 and run PS CS5 at the same time you may not receive any trace outputs when running Flash Tracer in firefox, and instead
see this output

Load Bundle at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Extensions
**********Running app: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Extensions\ScriptUIFlexServer-app.xml
ScriptUI is ready.
Host logging disabled Debug tracing disabled
Finished loading style definitions

While trying to find an answer to this problem I stumbled on a thread post on adobe forum : Flash 10.1.53.64 – no flashlog.txt logging.Seeing there was no answer found there I started to investigate it a bit myself, went in the flashlog.txt directory and tried to deleted and received an “File is currently locked by another process…” message. Did a quick search for an tool for windows to see what file handles an app is holding and found Process Explorer v12.04 ( nice little tool). Anyway check image below seems that the file is being locked by PS, go figure. Closed PS, delete file and reopened FF and walla my traces are back :@. Big fail on you Adobe

Pure evil
Recap:
To fix this problem you must do the following …..
Close Photoshop… thats all

To reproduce this file:
Open Photoshop why trying to debug trace.. LOCKED AGAIN!!

Bug : FP-5176

    Amazing! That explains it. I’ve been using Photoshop a lot lately while also running Flash Builder. I just closed Photoshop and now my flashlog.txt file is back.
    Thanks!!
