JUST FYI: dll.xml **SOLVED**

[Julean]

After I installed the PHNL the Game CTD.

I removed the dll.xml and no problem and off course no menus.

So when i removed the:

 <Launch.Addon>
  <Name>Addon Manager</Name>
  <Disabled>False</Disabled>
  <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
  <Path>bglmanx.dll</Path>
  </Launch.Addon>

From the xml file - FSX worked again.

What shall I do

All the best

You could have simply use the following method to disable a module:

<Disabled>True</Disabled>

Your program is most likely the antivirus, that has blocked the complete update of files during the installation.

- Turn off your antivirus. Don't simply quit its interface, but turn off its realtime protection.

- Uninstall the Scenery from the Windows Control Panel

- Reply YES to the question "Do you want to remove the Addon Manager ?"
- Reply YES to the question "Do you want to remove the Couatl Engine ?"

- Configure your antivirus to ignore the FSX\fsdreamteam\couatl.exe file from scanning.
- Configure your antivirus to ignore the FSX\bglmanx.dll file from scanning.

- Reinstall the Scenery

- Turn the antivirus back on, then launch FSX

Ok Im still having issues. Im getting the:
error on line 0,position 0: The following tag were not closed Simbase.Document
your dll.xml was not modified error. I am currently uninstalling all of my FSDT scenerys to try and narrow down the problem. I started all of this because my LAS building would not show up for some reason. So when I try and reinstall them I get the error for the dll everytime I install a FSDT scenery. I also reverted back to my original dll and exe. dll files to see if the problem would go away.

I am unsure how to configure Norton Antivirus to ignore the mentioned files. If someone could tell me that would be great! When I turn off my AV the error message does not come up.
So here is some basic information about my pc
Windows 7 HP 64bit
Norton Antivirus 2010
FSX SP1 and 2

Is there anything else that I should be doing to maybe troubleshoot this prob any more?

That error means either your dll.xml or you exe.xml have an error.

If you use the current version of the installer that is online now, the installer will now propose automatically recreate a correct one, and will proceed.

[bkircher]

So the current version of the installer is different the one from release?

[virtuali]

Yes, but just the installer, the scenery files are the same.

Hi

I still have the same problem.

It is only that fsdt post in dll file that make the problems.
So I think wait until you solve it.

So no FSDT sceneries working just now.

All the best.

I still have the same problem.

Which problem ? There are many problems discussed here, from antivirus, to fs copilot, to dll.xml problems.

So I think wait until you solve it.

With regard to the fs copilot problem, and issues with dll.xml (or exe.xml) not correctly formatted, the *current* installers are all able to deal with this so, there's nothing to solve, because it's already solved.

If, instead, the problem is the antivirus, there's nothing we can "solve", the only way to solve it is to correctly configure the antivirus, which has been explained several times, even in this thread.
