Hi Sagga, no, the license is associated with other hardware information (e.g. NICMAC address) but not the IP address.

Matthias, EFB shows the procedures exactly as they are provided by either Navigraph or Aerosoft. By far not every arrival/approach consists of exactly this sequence, IMHO it's more an example of what can be expected (e.g. Arrival from RILAX into runway 14 at LSZH. There are several STARs but none of them offers a transition). Will be available in version 2.0 By all respect, but EFB has never been built with the idea in mind of being a flight planner. There are many great programs like PFPX etc. which are designed as flight planning tools. EFB is a process oriented software with little capabilities as a flight planner.

Wil, can you create a screenshot where I can see all the folders below "C:\Users\[username]\Documents" on your DataProvider's computer? And can you please send me a) the settings files (DataProvider_UserSettings.bin) and all logfiles from the DataProvider (Folder: "C:\Users\[username]\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB\Logfiles") to support@aivlasoft.com. Thanks.

Clive, Castle.MicroKernel is a so called "Inversion of Control (IoC)" container. It's an open source framework and is part of the EFB architecture. More details can be found here on the project website http://www.castleproject.org/ or here at Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_Project From my experience I can say that whenever such errors happen, this sounds to my ears like "reinstall your operating system" ...

Hi Sagga, I'm sorry but I have no idea why this error occurs. Have you ever installed an earlier version of EFB before?

Wil, I cannot reproduce what you have described. It works properly here. But I can describe which steps are performed by the DisplayUnit and the DataProvider, maybe this little description helps to figure out why it doesn't work on your system. 1) Folder for FSX flight plans: There's only one folder which is relevant: C:\Users\[username]\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files It might be that the name "Flight Simulator X Files" is different depending on the operating system language. 2) Settings Only the settings on the DataProvider's side are relevant: Tab "Simulators", set the folder for the flight plans according to 1) and tick the check box below "Load / update Garmin GPS ..." 3) Activate a flight plan Whenever you press the button "Activate" from the RouteSetup dialog, EFB DisplayUnit sends the flight plan to the DataProvider which creates a file named "EFB_current_garmin.pln" and saves that file into the flight plans folder (see 1) and 2)). Then this flight plan will be loaded into the Garmin GPS system. 4) Change flight plan If you change the already activated route (e.g. selecting a Direct-TO waypoint), EFB again creates a new flight plan using the aircraft's present position (PRVPOS) as the first waypoint and then appends all the remaining waypoints from the flight plan. This new flight plan overwrites the previous "EFB_current_garmin.pln" and then the flight plan will loaded into the Garmin GPS again. That's all, nothing more and nothing less. @all, Maybe there are other users of EFB who have experienced this behavior? Thanks for coming in ...

Clive, Still the same question ... what has changed on that system? I mean if it has been running OK since day one and now it does no longer run OK, something must have changed on that system. But what?

Wil, EFB has nothing to do with FSUIPC.ini. If you want to do a proper installation, just run the EFB uninstaller before. The uninstaller is available from either the Windows Menu, or from the Windows Control Panel.

Wil, I need some more time to try whether it is reproducible on my system. Will get back to you soon.

Hi Clive, what has changed on that system that this error occurs? IIRC the system has been running before?

Hi, I cannot imagine why all these folders that you mentioned are not available. Usually after a successful installation and a first run of the program they must be there. Otherwise I must assume that they have been removed by any other program (anti virus, spam, backup ... or similar). Can you provide a screenshot from what you can see after you have pressed the buttons "Airports" -> "All Airports"? BTW, as per the forum rules, please sign your posts with your REAL first name. Thanks.

Hi Rene, I'm afraid, unfortunately no (at least I don't know it )

Hi, please verify whether the file names are set according to the screenshot below: [attachment=0]vatsimFiles.jpg[/attachment] Unfortunately there is no official site where to download the latest worldwide definition files on a regular basis. Therefore some definitions might be outdated and listed in that window you mentioned. BTW, as per the forum rules, please sign your posts with your real first name.

Hi Rene, first simple question: did you run the "Scenery data update" from the DataProviders menu after installing the FSDreamteam scenery for LSGG? If you open the "Airport Information" dialog you can double-click into the free area left of the "Close" button. This will indicate which BGL file is used for the depiction of the airport layout. See here:[attachment=0]which BGL file.jpg[/attachment] Sometimes scenery designers are using picture based information instead of information saved in the BGL files. It this is the cause at LSGG then EFB cannot read this information from the BGL files. Maybe this is also a reason why some information is missing in EFB?

Hi Martyn, thanks for the logfile. I had a look into the file but there is no trace what might have happened when the DataProvider (or the DisplayUnit) could not connect with each other. But I'm glad to read that it works now.

Hi Matthias, did you download the dll from herein (a posted link in the forum) or did you run the update 1.5.1 which contains the latest version of all flight plan handlers? Here is how it looks on my system: [attachment=0]flightplanhandlers.jpg[/attachment]

Hi Wil, please read this viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1660

please read this viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1660

EFB can load the current flight plan into the Garmin GPS in FSX/P3D. To do so, the following prerequisites must be fulfilled: 1) Version 1.5.1 must be installed 2) DataProvider settings (Simulator's tab): - Set the flight plan folder properly. This folder cannot be set at your discretion, it must be the same folder where FSX/P3D saves its own flight plans. Usually this is "\Flight Simulator X Files", whereas "" means the commonly known "My Documents" path. The name "Flight Simulator X Files" may vary depending on the language settings of the installed operating system. - Tick the check box "Load / update Garmin GPS system" If these prerequisites are fulfilled, EFB always loads the latest flight plan into the Garmin GPS system, when you press the "Activate" button on the RouteSetup dialog.

Tom, please try the following: 1) Run the uninstaller of EFB. Do not remove files manually, do not manually clean up the registry 2) Locate the file "C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\AivlaSoft\EFB\AivlaSoft_Efb_V1.dlsc" 3) Delete this file 4) Run the installer (http://www.aivlasoft.com/_downloads/Aiv ... _1_exe.zip) again. Next time when you start the DataProvider it will prompt you to enter the license. Enter your personal license key and press "Install LICENSE". Hope this helps.

Hi, The cause for this could be that EFB coincidentally is using the same port number that another program is already using. Try to change to port number (DisplayUnit settings, DataProvider settings, TCP Communication). Details about the port number please see the "Installation and Configuration" manual. Can you send me the logfiles to support@aivlasoft.com please? Maybe there is a trace about what happened. BTW, according to the forum rules, please sign your posts with your real first name. Thanks.

Hi, from my point of view and from what you describe I think you only have to 1) install the DataProvider on your new P3D computer and ... 2) to uninstall the DataProvider from your previous FSX computer. 3) Then run the DataProvider for the first time so it can build its database. 4) In the DataProvider settings verify (on the TCP Communication tab) that "Server Mode is set to ANY" 5) On the DisplayUnit's side verify the TCP Communication settings that "Server Mode is set to REMOTE" and properly set the computer name of your P3D computer in the text box below "Server mode". Alternatively (if you have fixed IP-addresses in your network) you also can enter the IP address instead of the computer name. 6) On the DataProviders computer make sure that the DisplayUnit has access to the "DataProvider folder". For details see here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=217 Hope this helps. BTW, as per the forum rules, please sign your posts with your real first name. Thanks.

Tom, did you run the full installation or the update only? Did you copy/paste some items manually?

Hi Wil, please verify whether the DisplayUnit settings at "Charts", "Traffic": - Is the checkbox named "Show AI / Multiplayer traffic ..." ticked? - Is the checkbox "Show online traffic ..." ticked? - Are you connected with the online network (RouteSetup dialog, button "Check")

If you get an exception like this "Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E" (Module not found), it might be a hint that "SimConnect.dll" is not (or no longer) installed properly. You can try this link to solve the problem: http://www.flight1software.com/files/SimConnect.msi
