Flightbeam's San Francisco 2.0 screw up!
Anders Bermann:
Got mine working with version 2.0.0.2119!
Installed FlightBeam KSFO 2.0 in OFFLINE mode! (this is version 2.0.0.2119 however it's not working!)
Then I installed Hawaii version 2 OFFLINE - which also has 2.0.0.2119 - but I noticed a size difference in the Couatl folder... the SFO version is 25,2 MB and Hawaii2 couatl-folder is 25,3 MB...
Anyway - I uninstalled both sceneries, and removed addon manager and Couatl-related files!
Then I installed KSFO 2.0 with version 2.0.0.2119 which isn't working for some reason -deleted the folder: 'couatl' in FSX\fsdreamteam\couatl and installed Hawaii2 (with the same version; 2.0.0.2119 (but with a larger folder)) and it's working now...
When new sceneries are installed, the couatl folder should be replaced everytime, with the Hawaii2 version...
Maybe something is corrupt in the couatl folder?! I don't know...

I think your report was very useful, this seems to confirm my idea it's not really the couatl.exe the problem, but something else.
Can you try it with the latest version (see the link in my previous message), without touching anything else ?

I can confirm Musjo's method worked for me. Uninstalled KSFO and hawaii v2, removed addon manager and couatl. Reinstalled KSFO, deleted couatl directory, and reinstalled hawaii v2 offline. Now all airports are working including KSFO V2.

Ok, we might getting there, perhaps there was something in another of the many files that relates to Couatl (the couatl folder). I still don't understand why KSFO works for me with its own installer, online or offline, though.
However, to ensure every file is the latest version, I've recompiled the whole Stand-Alone Addon Manager installer, which comes with a full couatl folder, not just the exe.
Can anyone try this version and see if it improve things ? Just install it over a non-working Couatl install.

Got it working with version 2.0.0.2141 now!!! :)
The trick is installing Hawaii2 in OFFLINE MODE AFTER ANY SCENERY! :) Otherwise it won't work... not even copying couatl folder in, afterwards...
So procedure:
Install ANY FSDT/FlightBeam scenery in OFFLINE...
Delete couatl-folder in FSX\fsdreamteam\couatl
Install Hawaii2 in OFFLINE! (<-- important step apparently... it won't work, if you install Hawaii2 intermediate and copy couatl-folder in afterwards!)
This method is working with version 2.0.0.2119
Copy couatl.exe (v2.0.0.2141) from Umberto's previous post, and overwrite in FSX\fsdreamteam\couatl
Hope it helps! :)
