Error During FS Station Database Check (Step 8)...

Featured Replies

Hi,I just installed the full version ASv6 and am getting an error each time I start the program. ASv6 is installed on a network computer. The paths to the FS installation on the FS computer and to the Application Data folder on the FS computer are set, as I verified in the ASv6.ini file.The error message occurs as ASv6 is loading. The exact message is: "Error during FS station database check (Step 8)... Stations may not be properly configured for extended-coverage weather depiction..."If I click OK on the error message textbox, the program finishes loading, downloads weather, and appears to be fine.Any ideas on the cause of this error?Thanks,Larry

Hi Larry,Double check and see if your FS04 path is fully shared.Hope this helps,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/Active Sky V6 Development Team Active Sky V6 Proud SupporterHiFi Beta TeamRadar Contact Supporter: http://www.jdtllc.com/AirSource Member: http://www.air-source.us/FSEconomy Member:http://dot.kelder.net:8080/fseconomy/

Hi Jim,Thanks for your tip. It at least got me looking in the right direction. I did have my FS9 path fully shared. But I also had FS9 mapped as a network drive to the PC running ASv6. This is where I pointed ASv6 during the installation. As soon as I edited the .ini file and set the FS9Path entry to be the actual network path, and not the mapped drive, ASv6 loaded normally with no errors.Thanks again for your help!Larry
