COUATL ERROR
« on: September 21, 2008, 10:38:11 pm »
I purchased the JFK-KORD-ZURICH bundle the other day and installed them and they work great.  I installed Greystone and had problems with it, as I posted in promotional area.

However since I have installed Greystone, when I load FSX I get an error saying that COUATL.EXE has stopped working.  FSX then appears to load no problem, but is there something that can be done to fix this?

Thanks

Michael

It shouldn't happen, because Greystone do not use Couatl at all. It might just be that you were using an old installer for Greystone, that didn't included the current version of the Addon Manager files. The current installer should automatically get the latest files from the net at start so, it's downloading exactly the same files as JFK. So, check you are using the latest Greystone installer.

Or, you can simply reinstall JFK, it should overwrite any older files it finds.

I tried reinstalling JFK again, but still had the same error message.

I downloaded the installed for Greystone from you first post announcing the promotion.

Is it the latest installer?

Thanks

Check you don't have two Couatl.exe processes with the Task Manager. This might happen if you close FSX then reopen it too quickly before giving Couatl a change to close down properly together with FSX.

If you downloaded it now, is the latest installer. The links never changes.
