Enabling Flash for Oracle Enterprise Manager Express in Chrome

Enterprise Manager Express has a problem where it doesn't try to start Flash, so you are not prompted to enable running flash when you go to the site.

If you explicitly execute flash, you can enable it for the page, and then it will be fine. You can do this by inspecting the page and finding the code that runs the app in the Javascript following } else if (hasRequestedVersion) { and executing it in the Console.

The following works for me, and is probably specific to the version of EM Express and/or database, your mileage may vary.

AC_FL_RunContent(
      "src", "swf/emxLogin_c407706053.swf",
      "width", "100%",
      "height", "100%",
      "align", "middle",
      "id", "emxLogin",
      "quality", "high",
      "bgcolor", "#869ca7",
      "name", "emxLogin",
                        "flashvars", flash_vars,
      "allowScriptAccess","sameDomain",
                        "wmode", "opaque",
      "type", "application/x-shockwave-flash",
      "pluginspage", "http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"
  );
