Hi,with ASX on the server everything is working like a charm, but when I try to use ASX on a client they doesn't seem to interact. Everything is set up according to help description, firewalls and virus protection off.Please see attached log files.Eagle

Hi There,A few things noted in your files...First, your appdata folder is not properly setup and/or there is a problem reading/writing files in this folder... your share name "fsx", please confirm that is set to your FS machine C:Docs and settingsuserApplication DataMicrosoftFSX folder and it has write permissions?Second, you may benefit from this file which is not being installed or being deleted for some reason in some cases: http://dreamcatcher.hifisim.com/DownloadStations.zip (place the included .dat file in Program FilesHiFiXengineASX).Third, it appears you have either FSUIPC or another program interacting with weather and this may interfere. Make sure you have such programs disabled for weather (if FSUIPC, turn off all weather options).Please let us know!Best,

Well, I went through the whole process again, making sure everything was set up right

Hi EagleA couple of points.The ip should be the server IP address or servername if ip dynamic in both the simconnect.cfg and the simconnect,xmlThe simconnect.cfg should be placed in the root of your My Documents folder on the client not the server.Port 500 should be opened on any firewalls you have, both server and client.The simconnect.msi should be run on the client (you can find it on the server in the following location "your FSX installation pathmicrosoft flight simulator x sdkSDKCore Utilities KitSimConnect SDKconfigPlease tell us how you get on.ThanksCarl Hackmanhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-dev-sigbanner.jpg

I'll keep investigating for you but can you answer another question please.Do you have any other addons that use simconnect on the server?if so you will need this entry in the simconnect.xml under the last but before the FalseAutolocalThanksCarl Hackmanhttp://www.hifisim.comhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-dev-sigbanner.jpg
