SU12 - Live updater crashes at 2%
« on: March 21, 2023, 09:14:10 pm »
Hi there,

the FSDT live update, crashes at 2%, no warning.

In the sim one gets a jetway error, "please use live udpate".

This is just today post SU12 launch.

If you mean it quits after completing to update the only FSDT program you have installed, it's normal. It will only complete all steps if you have ALL FSDT products, for FSX, P3D and MSFS, all installed at the same time.

There is another post already opened here:

If you checked what your error log said, you might have realized if yours was the same error, and post in the proper thread.

With all due respect, there's no need to be rude, that thread was indeed created but only 20 minutes before mine. When I went onto the forum to start my thread (which took some time because i wanted to try a few things, it wasn't there...

Nobody is being "rude", I only told you exactly where you could find the answer. That was just the very last thread, but this has been discussed so many times on the forum, that a search would have surely helped.

Hello Umberto,

I have a question about the updater programm.
I have also noticed that it simply closes again after the update without a success message.

Wouldn't it be helpful to display at least a short message "Update successful"?
Or is that deliberately so ?

Regards

Of course is intentional, and it was specifically asked to be like this by some users, that wanted the program to never stop and exit automatically, because they use the updater as part of a batch startup routine, to be sure everything is updated before they start a flight.

Since the same program has a different interface ( the one you start with the "FSDT Installer" ), so you can use that one to be more in control of what is being updated, and it doesn't quit at the end, we listened to the suggestion of making the Update interface running completely automatic, with no confirmation boxes that would stop it.
