March 20, 20197 yr Hi, Setup: P3d v4.4 Win10 Purchased From Just Flight, Version reports as 1.16 b03 Problem: I can't get WAMA to connect to the database. The is a screenshot of where I'm at: Screenshot of WAMA Problem I've tried starting WAMA as admin, that has no effect. I had to create WAMA_Position_DB.xml manually because it wasn't present after installation, and that fixed one error I was getting, but I still isn't right. Here is a screenshot of the WhereAreMyAircraft_P3D_V4 Files directory... https://imgur.com/wFupr3s As you can see, it creates the backups, but not much else. Help!

The "Connect" button connects the app to the running simulator (and not to the database, that happens in the background on startup). WAMA must be connnected to the sim before anything else works. You cannot use it "offline". To avoid problems with the sqlite database, make sure to install both of the vcredist packages (32 and 64 bit).

March 20, 20197 yr Author Hi Oliver, Sorry, I meant to say Simulator, must have database on the brain. Just to clarify; I have P3d open with an aircraft sitting at the gate with the parking brake on. WAMA is installed on the same machine as the Sim, and I have other add-one using simconnect to talk to P3D. But when I click connect, Nothing happens and I can't get the features to work. I've just ran both vcredist packages, rebooted, restarted P3d and tried again, but no joy yet. Alistair
March 20, 20197 yr Commercial Member Hi, that is odd. This usually only happens when you run a higher version of WAMA with a lower simulator version (like 4.4 WAMA and 4.3 sim). Did you use the WAMA P3D_44 installer - and if you did, are you sure that your sim is really the 4.4 version? I can see in your screenshot that there are WAMA logfiles. Please send me those via email, address is on the last page of the manual. And please include a proof of purchase when you do. Best regards Edited March 20, 20197 yr by Lorby_SI LORBY-SI
March 20, 20197 yr Author Well don't I feel stupid? Found that due to a silly mistake in my backup routine, I had 4.3 installed when I thought I had 4.4! That's corrected now and everything seems to be working perfectly! Thanks for your time, much appreciated! Alistair
