airport cache failure
« on: November 18, 2022, 05:31:38 am »
I am having issues and just started getting an error of airport cache failure after some odd seconds saying can't find a valid Afcad file services aren't available. I am at KSFO could it be the airport and I need to fix the airport config or what are my options? Below I attached the Couatl log le me know my options please!

Looking at your first log, this line seems to indicate the problem:

Airport cache not valid: got error CreateFile failed: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process: "C:\ProgramData\Virtuali/Couatl/fsx\files.bin" (system:32), accessing "C:\ProgramData\Virtuali/Couatl/fsx\files.bin"

The other process might be:

- A Couatl.exe file stuck from a previous session

OR

- The folder itself being blocked by the antivirus.

Try a Windows Reboot and run the FSDT Live Update again, which will clear the cache and will try to create a new one on the next sim startup.

Then please post your startup log, after you see the error.

You mean you can't change any Settings ? Try doing it on a runway, instead of parked.
