Couatl engine hasn't started - How to report a problem

[virtuali]

Yes but I have an external Usb device that is samsung that has msfs on it and the community folder

Which as already explained here:

http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,26874.0.html

Cannot be used with Symbolic links, because they are not supported on exFat drives.

So the only way to fix it is to reformat the entire usb Hard Drive
There is no other way?

Thanks...

I'm did an uninstall/reinstall, and then applied the offline addon manager... booting MSFS now to test at EDLP (the jetbridges were above the airport building). Went into the config and found EDLP to deactivate in the lower list (I think thats GSX world?)

Looks like I fixed whatever was happening. After the offline addon manager was installed, the menu is now displayed and I was able to simulate a deboarding.

As as been already explained in the other thread, you have 3 options:

- Try to use the Addon Linker, and see it can be used instead of the FSDT Installer to link both GSX packages to the Community folder

- Try looking for utilities that will allow you to convert from exFat to NTFS

- Format the drive in NTFS.

Hello,

I've been having similar issues -

Tried uninstall & re-install, then just the manual install without update.

I am now receving the error "unknown" has crashed COUATL.

Additionally - none of my 3rd Party Airports showing in the CONFIG and trying to click on GSX Jetway World produces an unavailable error.

See log attached, any support?

This, and the error in your log, confirms your problem is an incomplete installation, surely caused by server overstressed by the release, follow to the instructions here to do a complete reinstall:

You don't have the same problem, your problem is completely different, and I can't explain it in public. Send a PM and I tell you what it is.

I've just PM you, did you received it? Because I already did it few days ago but never received a message back from you

Your log shows a perfectly normal startup with no issues.

I see the cache being regenerated. Is this happening all times ? It shouldn't but, if you change the scenery library configuration (add/remove sceneries or enable/disable them with 3rd party utilities), this will trigger a cache regeneration each time, and during that time you can't use GSX so, maybe you only had to wait a bit.

I restarted after more than one hour but still the same message "Couatl engine  hasn't started". See the new logfile.

Your log shows the same: Couatl is working just fine and has completed loading. Have you restart the sim at least once when doing these tests ?

[stjansbe]

Yes I restarted the sim between. Then I rebooted Windows 10 and restarted the sim and now it worked! (see couatl1).
After that I closed the pc and after about one hour I started up sim. Now I received the Couatl engine hasn't started message again (see couatl2).
