GSX crashes on pushback after recent Live Update
« on: May 29, 2024, 10:14:05 pm »
Hi

I have been using GSX Pro with Level 2 Expansion for several years now without any problems. After I started using Prosim737 aircraft exclusively about two years ago
I only use GSX for pushbacks and nothing else and everything seemed to work okay. After recent FSDT Live Update, I cannot instigate pushbacks at
both Edinburgh and Gatwick airports regardless which gates I use. I get the following error "The addon is causing the Couatl Scripting Engine
to restart" as soon as the tow truck is ready to start pushback. I ran GSX Live Update several times, which didn't resolve the issue.
I have also uninstalled and reinstalled all the UK2000 scenery airports and Orbx scenery along with offline reinstall of all GSX products after uninstalling them first.
I am not sure why this pushback problem started as I've made no changes to my sim software other than running the FSDT Live Update. Can someone point
me in the right direction to resolve this issue. I attach Couatl.log file. Many thanks

Just to update, I have now restored GSX from a backup which I did in 2023. I didn't do any Live Update after the restore. Pushback problem has now gone. It seems something in recent Live Update may have caused the problem with GSX crashing on pushback. As a temporary fix, I will stop doing Live Updates for the foreseeable future.

A lot of people are having issues it seems right now especially if you use P3D or FSX. Haven’t heard anything from admin but has been broken since May 9th. Hopeful a resolution comes soon!!

Running P3Dv5.3 here. Thank god I didn’t run the Live Update before coming here and reading all these posts.

Whilst Live Update might seem a convenient way of updating all your FSDT products it fails when there’s no option to revert to the previous build unless you have a backup and even then it’s far from straightforward.

Are there any official instructions on how to manually restore? I’m not aware of any.

And the lack of any official help is worrying. There should at least be an acknowledgment of a problem with a promise to fix it.

But if the latest version of Python is incompatible with FSX and perhaps P3D an official warning should be issued.

A sorry state of affairs.  :(
Cheers,
Ray.

Although I back up my sim quite regularly, I keep Addon Manager on a separate drive and unfortunately I simply forgot about it being there so my last back up is dated  2017! Apart from not having GSX at that stage, I suspect restoring a backup that old might cause additional chaos so I am very reluctant to do so, leaving me with a non-functional GSX-Level 2 as well 20 FSDT airport products which I haven't been able to use for almost 2 weeks now. Frustrating to say the least!

I'm not aware of any formal ticket system where users can report issues. Just this forum where the sole supporting person has not appeared for a while.

If just GSX was affected users could perhaps live with it but for all purchased airports to be unavailable because the controlling program has crashed is without precedent.
Cheers,
