Title: Couatl Error **SOLVED**
Post by: grouner on December 30, 2018, 03:06:05 pm
I keep getting this error for KLAX only. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and killed all addons, that being ORBX SCA, weather, and ultimate traffic live. I have checked my antivirus and the Addon folder is selected to ignore. I am including the error file.

I am getting the same error at LAX.  DFW and CLT don't crash but there are no buildings.  This happened after the latest Windows 10 update, which has been the only configuration change to my system.

Correction:  KLAX is the only airport affected.  KDFW and KCLT are OK.  I didn't restart P3D after the KLAX error, so Couatl wasn't running when I checked the other airports.  My bad.

I uninstalled KLAX and installed the latest version, which seems to have resolved the issue.

 I am also receiving the same error. I just updated the airport using Live Download Manager. Hope it helps. Frustrating as hell to be on approach and start getting error popping up every 5 seconds.  I am posting the error files in case the developers want to see what's happening.

I cannot reproduce the problem, but it seems to be caused by the sim not finding the FSDT Simobject folders.

None of you said exactly which simulator they use, but on FSX this is usually caused by other addons corrupting the FSX.CFG, or restoring from an old FSX.CFG which was made *before* installing anything from FSDT, so it's usually fixed by reinstalling something from FSDT, which will restore the correct lines that were missing, which is confirmed by at least two posts that said reinstalling fixed it.

I am also getting this. I have tried to update, uninstall, AV off etc to no avail.

Your log shows you are using an old version of KLAX, one that was made before we updated it to feature SODE jetways. Normally, it's not possible to get an old version of a scenery, because the Live Update is supposed to update it.

But, I also noticed you ignored the suggested folder to install the Addon Manager, and changed the installation destination to be *inside* the P3D4 folder, which is not the suggested location, and in fact it might cause issues with the Live Update missing enough permission to update files inside the simulator. That's why our installer don't default to the simulator folder but, instead, to its own folder, but you changed it and chose to install into the sim.

You should Uninstall everything from FSDT, and choose the correct folder that, unless you don't have enough space on file, it's best left as default. Do this:

- Uninstall every FSDT product, both GSX and sceneries.

- Reply YES to the question "Do you want to remove the Addon Manager ?". This is the most important step

- Reinstall all the products you uninstalled before, which will now ask you for a destination folder, which can be on any drive. If you forget to reply YES to the previous step, you won't able to choose another folder.

- From the 2nd product you install, the 1st folder you chose in the previous setup will be used for all subsequent installs.

You don't have anything to do, provided you followed the uninstall/reinstall procedure I listed in my previous message, TO THE LETTER.

Yes I did that.

I'll search for... something KLAX-thing in my folders.

Solved. It was my fault: I was using an old setup file [facepalm]

I was having the same problem after upgrading from P3D 4.3 to 4.4. I didn't use the scenery in 4.3 version so I am not sure if it started to happen after upgrading to 4.3 from 4.2.
I used Virtuali's tip but only applied it to KLAX scenery. Didn't re-install GSX 2 Expansion.

Seems to be working for me.
