simmyjiff Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hi, I appreciate any help available for an issue I have been battling with for a couple of days now, I originally installed Aivlasoft EFB a couple of years ago prior to the launch of Steam, all worked well with the information available considerable, adding a real interest in to FSX. Earlier this year I downloaded Steam in the hope to fix a couple of historical issues, all went well until earlier this week when I decided to start using EFB. I noted it had been updated so I downloaded and installed a clean copy. The instructions of the Installation and Configuration document were closely followed, yes, by now I think readers will already anticipate what I’m going to say next, PROBLEMS!! The Scenery.cfg is my problem, after inserting what I thought was the path of the scenery.cfg folder and running the Data Provider, when loading the Display Unit, I find I have no Airports listed in the selector, well, that isn’t strictly true, I do have London Heathrow and Gatwick which are UK2000 add-ons, but none of the FSX airports and a couple of other UK2000. I spent a considerable amount of time in an attempt to source the issue but I am still at a loss, can somebody help please? I have attached a screen-print of the settings page of the Data Provider showing the path to the scenery.cfg, and a copy of scenery.cfg file containing airport files.(not allowed?) My apologies for any duplication but this seems to have been a problem for some years but and I am unable to find an answer. Thank you Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aivlasoft Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hi Jim, As far as I can see the settings are good. Can you send me the logfiles (from both the DisplayUnit and the DataProvider) to support@aivlasoft.com? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aivlasoft Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hi Jim, obviously I was not really attentive when I looked at the screenshot you provided. Sorry for that. After having had a look at the logfiles I realized that the installation path of the simulator is not set properly. The path ends with "\AivlaSoft" which I assume is not right. This wrong path will be taken when the DataProvider is trying to read the simulator files and as a result of this, the DataProvider cannot any file because they are at another place. Try to set the correct installation path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ODoyle7 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Hello, I am wondering if this was solved? I am searching through old posts. I am having the same issue, I have the correct path for the scenery config file but just cant seem to get airports to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruckerPaul Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 hi all, i read this post with interest as i have just downloaded this program after watching some videos on you tube about it. i was impressed hence my download 2 days ago, i still haven't managed to get this software to work, as i also have the same problem i have the steam ver of fsx and cannot locate the correct path to the scenery.cfg in fsx. i found one but read in a forum that this scenery.cfg is not the one to use in steam fsx ?. very frustrating indeed. i feel that in a few days time i will lose patience and not pay for this software as i have it on a 30 day trial so 28 days to find the solution. any idea will be very welcome, i also use as16 weather and i use the pmdg 737 ngx which is awesome so want to that that extra bit of realism to complete the fsx please advise regards Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
