Couatk scripting error message **SOLVED**

[follettj]

Just got a new PC and installed MSFS 2020.

Everytime I load into the sim I am getting the following error in the log

couatl v5.0 (build 5974)
panic log started on Wed Jun 25 22:56:36 2025

I have tried to reinstall GSX pro fully and run the live update to no avail any help appreciated

Same with me, just after the new update

[Seth2413]

Same here, thought it was just me.   Issue is the error comes up on loading and you cant shut it off as couatl script engine continues to want to start.  GSX Pro is unusable for me at the moment and have to turn it off all togther.  Have done 'live update' which didnt heklp. 

Here is bottom of couatl.log file

Switching to beta release solves it in the mean time.

[gilcon]

Same thing and same message as follettj.  Reinstall and Live Update doesn't fix it.  Started today.

[Ferradini]

Switching to beta release solves it in the mean time.

Thanks, this actually works. Did a full MSFS re-installed this morning and Couatl stopped working. After switching to beta, works now like a charm.
Thanks

[gilcon]

Switching to beta release solves it in the mean time.

Where do I find the Beta?

[Ferradini]

Switching to beta release solves it in the mean time.

Where do I find the Beta?

On the FSDT installer left side in a small box. Change it to BETA and click update.

[gilcon]

Right in front of me!  Thanks.

[Arnason]

What could be causing this?

[Ahmed_rady]

Same thing and same message

[Seth2413]

Changed it to beta which it now works but all the ground crew are pink.  Why do I bother. 

[Seth2413]

What could be causing this?

This is lots of people apparently - just started today, you'll see another thread on it.  Short term fix is to switch to beta if you want to risk it even more bugs!!!  Fancy GSX pro having a beta and a 'stable' version.  ha!

[virtuali]

Fixed by running an update CHECK now.

[radzio2]

Fixed by running an update CHECK now.

For me running an update didn't solve the problem. Switching now to beta version.
