Database Builder - Errors


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

i get errors while running the database builder:

 

"Database creation finished with 6 warning(s) and/or 2 error(s). ...".

 

The logfile shows some warnings about missing add-on.xml files but also the following errors:

 

2018-07-01 01:04:26.395   Debug   : Start scanning 23156 files

2018-07-01 01:04:36.045   Warning : Database creation finished with 6 warning(s) and/or 2 error(s).

 

If i ignore the errors and start the server a message comes up: "Trying to verify demo license but could not reach any time server on the internet.".

If i then click "ok" and enter my data again the license could be validated but a new error comes up "Could not read database due to errors. Please see the logfile."

 

The serverLogfilter.txt contains the following error (which is much likely caused by the issue of the database builder):

 

2018-07-01 01:08:30.200   Debug   : Loading database ...
2018-07-01 01:08:30.205   Error   : Die Datei "C:\Users\Florian\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Server\DbBuilder\Ready\P3Dv4NG\airports.bin" konnte nicht gefunden werden.     bei System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)   bei System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy, Boolean useLongPath, Boolean checkHost)   bei System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share)   bei z.z.g.u.g.nn(String A_0, Action`1 A_1)     bei z.z.g.u.g.nn(String A_0, Action`1 A_1)   bei z.z.z.g.i.m()

PS: I attached the debug package.

 

Any ideas?

 

Best regards

 

Florian

As above, same issues.

The database tool works from within the server, but not stand alone

 

For me it doesn‘t work - regardless of if i‘m starting the database builder from the server app or stand alone...

Yes, now it is the same for me. It is now going around an  eternal loop. Not a good start.

I am just trying the 1807 airac, copied over from EFBv1, and all good now. Must be problem with airac 1802. Still the Lic issue though

Gentlemen, you certainly understand that we cannot provide a 24-hours service ?. It's now 2:56 AM here in Switzerland. You will have to wait for Urs to come online on Sunday, July 1st,  to provide assistance for these errors in database building.

 

As far as the reported Warning messages about missing "Add-on.xml" files are concerned, there seems to be a problem within the installation of add-ons into P3D V4's package system. This is beyond EFB v2 influence. An improper (or manually changed) installation can cause havoc if not strictly adhered to the rules outlined by Lockheed Martin's SDK

http://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/sdk/add-ons/add-on_packages.html.  Neverhteless EFB v2's functions are not affected. The respective airport ground map will simply show the default layout.

Was not expecting an answer straight away Oskar. All good now though using airac 1807. I did not have the addon.xml error though, but would be a good idea for the OP to download Lorby's  xml app and that will check for errors.

Be careful with any add-ons that manipulate the scenery_add-ons.xml and scenery.cfg. We still recommend to use the standard installation method using Lockheed Martin's package system.

Addons like Lorby's Organizer or SceneryConfigEditor may work the way it is intended, however be advised that whenever they edit one of the mentioned files, EFB v2 will ask you to rebuild the database.

I am having the same exact problem only with FSX-SE. Please help. RYAN

Hi Ryan,

Is this screenshot from the first run to create the database after initial Installation? Are you sure you followe EXACTLY the procecures laid down in the various User Guides? I see that you are in the "Update Simulator" tab.When creating a database for the first time you should be in the "Create/Select Database" tab.

STOP STOP STOP !

Please make sure that you follow EXACTLY the procedures laid down in the Installation- and Quickstart Guide. More thorough information about the database building process can also be found in the Database guide.

 

Please do also not do anything that is not explicitly recommended by AivlaSoft to avoid initial errors. We have checked the installers many time before release and we did not encounter any of the reported errors. We will have to analyse the reports to see what exactly caused these reports.

 

Furthermore we would like to remind you to our Forum Rules, where it is mandatory to sign your posts with your (at least first) real name.

 

Please also state in your reports the Simulator(s) used and whether EFB v2 is installed in the default path.

We will do our best to solve the encountered problems but we will of course also require as much information about your installation.

 

Thank you for your understanding.

First, the Database Builder throws "Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object" just after creating the navaids repository and before reading magdec.bgl

 

The next error is: "Error: Could not find file D:\jeff\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Server\DbBuilder\Base\P3D4\comservices.bin"

 

This is where this chokes each time.  EFB2 unusable at the moment.

 

EFB is not installed in the default path.

 

Thank you,

 

Jeff

Very strange. I just deleted my database and let EFB v2 rebuild the new database from scratch. I don't see any such behaviour.

What Simulator and OS are you running?

Ok I see. Thanks, Jeff, for the info. Could you do me a favour and de- and reinstall EFB v2 to its default path and check and report again? Should be a matter of a few minutes. Although we have also checked remote installs I would like to make sure where this strange behaviour stems from.

Hello Oskar,

 

Thank you.  I have already done this a few times earlier based on your reply to another user.  Thus, regardless of whether I have it installed in Program Files, or elsewhere, the behavior is the same.

 

It is the problem reported by the OP (error messages look identical save for language localization).

Thank you,

 

Jeff

Oh, and just another thought: wnat kind of AV software do you use? Could it be that the AV software deletes this "comservice.bin" upon creation? It wouldn't be the first time that AV software play havoc with binary files (not only in EFB) by deleting it without any warning.

Yes, I see the messages being identical, however this "comservices.bin" file is created within the database building process. Therefore it is hardly believeable that it simply "disappears"...?

Hello Oskar,

 

Thank you.  I understand.  Perhaps both the OP and I are experiencing the same problem?

 

Thank you,

 

Jeff

Yes. possible. In any case Windows Defender is not responsible for that as I use it here too. Could you possibly create an exception for the "comservices.bin"  file in your malwarebytes application to check? It is very strange that this file should disappear "just like this". So far I have never seen happening this and when I recreate my database I don't see any problems with that file either.

In any case we will have to wait for Urs to "come alive" here. He has more insight as to when exactly the file is created and under what conditions.

I re-ran everything without MalwareBytes or Defender running and behavior is not different.

 

Thank you for working with me and perhaps Urs can make it better.

 

Jeff

Ok, thanks for info. Gotta get some sleep now after this "night shift" ? I'm sure Urs will be around soon to take over to solve the problems.
