Answer 1

I solved editing this line on ZeroClipboard.min.js

return a+"ZeroClipboard.swf"

to:

return "//YOUR/PATH/TO/ZeroClipboard.swf"

Answer 2

If you extract the project exactly, the .SWF file is located here:

moviePath: "../zeroclipboard.swf"

Answer 3

After months I finally found a solution:

ZeroClipboard doesn't work out-of-the-box in CommonJS environments in the browser, even it says it does.

The fix for that is assigning the module scope variable (e.g. ZeroClipboard) to the global window object:

ZeroClipboard = require("zeroclipboard");
window.ZeroClipboard = ZeroClipboard;

I created a bug report on this: https://github.com/zeroclipboard/zeroclipboard/issues/332

Would just like to point out for anybody else who finds this question first: ZeroClipboard does not work when looking at the file locally i.e. file://path/index.html. This is because of Adobe's security policies blocking the file:// protocol.

If you're already using Node.js at all (even just for the package manager) you can spin up a basic web server on the command line to test ZeroClipboard with npm install http-server -g and http-server /path/ (assuming that npm stuff is already on your path).

I'm not sure if this would help~ but have you tried changing your moviePath a little bit? Like this:

{moviePath:"//YOURSERVER/path/ZeroClipboard.swf"}

I was trying to use ZeroCLipboard in the whole month and most of the time I fail because I got the path wrong in one way or another...

Good luck anyways~
