Your error shows GSX wasn't able to create an object which is of course included with it so, it cannot happen, unless your FSX.CFG file has been corrupted, with missing/corrupted SimobjectPaths, so you are missing hundreds of default library objects too, not just GSX.

See here for an explanation:

I'm using P3D v3.4, is there a diffrent?

And what do you mean at last? Can I fix them now on anyway or have I really to wait for the next update?

Only the affected file is called Prepar3D.CFG, instead of FSX.CFG, and it's located under %APPDATA%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3d v3

You should fix your problem regardless of GSX, since you are not just missing the GSX objects, but a whole lot of library objects, which might also create issues like stuttering, if some other scenery tried to use them.

But yes, we are planning to move over to use our own Simobject folder and configuration files, in future versions of our installers, so users with this problem (caused by other addons or having hand-edited a default file in the wrong way), won't assume it's a "GSX problem".

But you should fix this anyway, as explained in the linked thread.

This is how it lokks like in my P3D.cfg

[MAIN]
FIBER_FRAME_TIME_FRACTION=0.01
HideMenuFullscreen=1
HideMenuNormal=0
LabelsSupported=Airplane, Helicopter
Location=1685,145,2733,963,\\.\DISPLAY1

ShowInfoText=0
SimObjectPaths.0=SimObjects\Airplanes
SimObjectPaths.1=SimObjects\Rotorcraft
SimObjectPaths.2=SimObjects\GroundVehicles
SimObjectPaths.3=SimObjects\Boats
SimObjectPaths.4=SimObjects\Animals
SimObjectPaths.5=SimObjects\Misc
SimObjectPaths.6=SimObjects\Countermeasures
SimObjectPaths.7=SimObjects\SkyTraffic
SimObjectPaths.8=Aerosoft\Mega Airport Zurich V2.0\simobjects
SimObjectPaths.9=SimObjects\Avatars
SimObjectPaths.10=SimObjects\Submersible
SimObjectPaths.11=SimObjects\Weapons
SimObjectPaths.12=SimObjects\IVAO_MTL

SimObjectPaths.14=C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\SimObjects
User Objects=Airplane, Helicopter, Submersible, ExternalSim, Avatar

The Misc-path was missing and now, as always, it still doesen't work and I get the same error on and on...

So that confirms what I thought.

Those lines don't look wrong but, either you haven't modified the correct file, or have another error elsehwere in the file. In fact:

The correct file name is Prepar3D.CFG so, are you sure you are editing the correct file, and something really named Prepar3D.CFG and not, for example, Prepar3D.CFG.TXT or Prepar3D.CFG.BAK, which you can easily mistook as the actual file, if you turned off file extension view on Windows ?

If this was the case, you would add the missing Simobjects\Misc line, but to the wrong file, so the right one stil has the error.

Really, this is the only possible reason GSX would give you that error.

I'm not sure. So I only have the Prepar3D.cfg inside my %appdata% (Roaming) file. But there are two. Both with the same name. I've overwrote this with the same lines into MAIN.

But I looked inside the %ProgramData% file 12bPilot -> SODE -> simobjects, and this folder is empty is that normal?

Now I looked into %ProgramData% Lockheed Martin -> Prepar3D v3, and I have a "simobjects" and a "simobjects.cfg".
I added this file

[Entry.0]
PATH=C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\SimObjects
TITLE=SODE Common SimObjects
ACTIVE=true
REQUIRED=false
[Entry.1]
PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\12bPilot\SODE\data\SimObjects
TITLE=SODE Main SimObjects
ACTIVE=true
REQUIRED=false

into the simobjects.

Now I can search for gates and runways, but when I try to Deobard or something like that, it still chrashs.

That's what I suspected: you edited the wrong file.

SODE is not related to this problem.

What crash ? I'm sure you have a different error now.

As I've said, the one which is REALLY named "Prepar3D.CFG", and nothing else. No P3D.CFG, or Prepar3D.CFG.BAK or something like Prepar3D.CFG.TXT.

But it might be possible to confuse them, if you have the "Hide known file extension" option enabled in the View options of Windows File Explorer.

As I told you, these errors are either caused by having edited the file by hand, of by installers with bugs, or even a combination of both: installers that tried to add their own lines, on an already corrupted file, causing a mess.

GSX works day before the update about Prague, and on the picture you see Prague after the update, scince this it dosen't work anymore.

I followed your instructions but it's possible that I missed some little things because my english is not the best.

So please I need an answer, do you know a solution for this?

Another bugged installer ??? I think it's easier if we had a Teamviewer session, so I can fix the file for you. Contact me in private to arrange that.
