Parking isolated after update
« on: February 16, 2022, 07:53:42 am »
Hi,

Just ran the GSX update twice this morning and when starting P3Dv5 and once loading FlyTampa EKCH I get a message that "this parking is isolated. Ground services is not available" when starting GSX.

I not edited any AFCAD, only updated GSX to the latest version. It ran fine Monday morning prior to the first update.

I have tried running restart Couatl and rebuild airport cache without luck.

Does you message means you are only getting that message at FlyTampa EKCH, or that's the only airport you tried, or you are getting it everywhere ?

As for now I have only experienced it at EKCH.
Just arrived at Tenerife and here GSX works fine. Will check a few other airports later tonight.

Now it becomes interesting.
On my arrival back at EKCH I was able to open the menu and select the parking stand and when I arrived the ground equipment was ready.
After engine shutdown and called for de-boarding I received the message "This parking is isolated. Ground services is not available" again.

I have quickly tested a few other airports and they work fine.

So, again, it seems to affect only that airport ?

That is correct.
It only affect Copenhagen and it worked without issues prior to the update.

Is GSX using the correct AFCAD for the airport ? Check the name in the airport customization page.

GSX is using the correct AFCAD which was also used prior to the update.

It´s all of them.
I have also noticed that some of the stands I am getting the menu up, but the stand I am at isn´t listed. Previous they have been there.

Do you have a GSX .INI profile loaded for that airport ? Perhaps the AFCAD changed without changing its name, so the .INI profile is not usable anymore, that's a common cause for mismatched parking spots.

I´ve got a GSX profile and the AFCAD that followed.
They have worked flawless for a few years and I have also tried to reinstall them with the same result.

Try to move away the .INI from the %APPDATA% folder, restart GSX and see if it see the parking correctly without a profile.

With the moved GSX profile the problem remains.
