Check the %APPDATA%\Virtuali folder if you have a Couatl.err file after the crash, and if you have one, (or you have a Couatl.LOG file) post its content.

Umberto,

There is no Couatl.err file generated for me. Please note that it appears its couatl crashing because when this happens all GSX/Couatl related option from the add-ons menu disappear and don't come back.

I am getting this error in the couatl.log in my FSX main folder:

How do you expect we "work on a fix", if you don't send the Couatl.err file I requested, which might explain WHAT is really happening ?

Umberto,

I am having the same problem but I don't have a couatl.err file.

Why might this be?

couatl v3.0 (build 3187)
panic log started on Tue Mar 08 18:40:23 2016

problem raised by addon <unknown>

Ok this is MY log. I was thinking about not posting it because of the date. I may be able to give you a more drawn out explanation to what's happening. I load up the sim. Load C&D in the Aerosoft A320 (And yes, I've tried in other planes). Open up GSX menu, select Request Catering Service. My sim is still responding and my aircraft sinks slightly down. I have jetways, blurry ground textures that look almost as if they are made of grass, and no buildings. Tried it over again, it crashes. I'm not sure how much more we can give you as some/most of us have either outdated .err files or even no .err files. That's all the information we have other than knowing that we can't use GSX with LAX.

Wanted to chime in and say that I too am experiencing a couatl crash upon requesting a service from GSX at KLAX.

I checked my couatl.err log and there was nothing in there relating to these crashes.

Exactly, it's an old log coming from an older version.

Note that, if you enabled Logging in the Trobleshooting section of the GSX Settings, any errors will be logged in the Couatl.LOG, not the .ERR file. Have done that ? If yes, you should post your Couatl.LOG instead.

The error is not very clear, please try with this updated file attached, to be put under FSX\fsdreamteam\Couatl\common, then try again and check the new Log, it should show a more descriptive cause of the error.

Please clarify what to do you mean with "crashing". An FSX crash with an error, a Couatl crash with an error, or Couatl just disappearing with no errors ?

And, could you please post the *entire* log file ? Don't copy it in a message. ZIP it and attach it to the post.

By crash I mean couatl disappears with no errors.

Try to clean all your GSX preferences, by removing this file:

%APPDATA%\Virtuali

Then reinstall GSX, using only the current installer. Note that, by removing that folder, you'll lose all your GSX airport and airplane customizations so, if you made some, you might want to backup the folder to a different place first.

I use AES for pushback at LAX during the pushback I got a warning popup that opened the couatl log with this error. couatl restarted fine but this seems to be another error that was overlooked.

That fixed file is part of the files that are being downloaded on the fly by the installers so no, there's no need to update it, because everybody running it after your report will get it automatically.

The error is an entirely different issue, and it hasn't been overlooked:

http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,13586.msg100904.html#msg100904

BTW, could you please elaborate a bit why you want to use AES for Pushback at KLAX ? If there something the GSX Pushback is not able to do ? Improving the Pushback will be the MAIN new feature for the next version of GSX, so we need all the feedback possible.

So from what I can tell this error is still being fixed?

I have been using AES since before GSX was released I primarily use it for jetways. I actually do prefer the pushback that GSX uses and will be using GSX more in a few weeks when I switch to P3D.

No, it was fixed this morning, just that I'm responding to so many posts, that I couldn't find the time to post here, saying it's already fixed in the current Live Update.
