Remote Computer and X-Plane Aircraft

Featured Replies

I have been flying with LNM for quite some time, probably since your first release, but this last week I have developed a problem with my aircraft not being tracked. I see my VATSIM red shadow, but not the yellow craft. Navconnect shows connection, LNM shows connection, but the Simulator Aircraft window does not show the aircraft and that it is connected. It says "Prepare the flight and load your aircraft in the simulator to see progress updates." All this is done and flight is in process. None of my setup has changed to the best of my knowledge. I have tested the internet and the wireless connection without any problems showing. Anybody have any ideas? Please not the obvious I probably have already checked it.

This is a strange one. Sitting in the cockpit, LNM showing "Connected" in the status bar and the "Prepare the flight ..." message should normally not appear at the same time.

You can send me a log file from LNM and Navconnect showing a connection attempt (https://albar965.github.io/contact.html). Maybe I can see something in there.

Where are the log files, I haven't found them yet?

For LNM: menu "Tools" -> "Create issue report". This creates a Zip file containing flight plan, log, configuration and more.
For Navconnect: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\abarthel-little_navconnect.log

Thanks for the files. I see LNM connects to the remote fine. User aircraft is enabled (obvious but things happen🙃). 

It looks like it tries to connect to X-Plane in the connection dialog since I see the X-Plane tab in front and not network. Strange since it still shows network connections. 🤔

If all else fails: what about uninstalling and reinstalling in the default folder "C:\Program Files" using the installer? 
You can also try to reset settings and restart in menu "tools".

A side catch: clear the "Directory for additional map themes" on options page "Cache and Files". This should not point to the installation default folder.

Alex, this has been working fine, just in the last week or so did it stop. I'll try the reset and see what happens. I may have failed to mention that when I restart now I get a LNM did not exit clearly the last time message. It has been happening for a while also.

You log does not show a shutdown at all. It is somehow truncated.

I'd really uninstall and reinstall using the installer. If this does not help: Tools reset settings and restart. Or rename the ABarthel settings folder just in case permissions are wrong.

Problems that appear suddenly can be a change in LNM options or a Windows update with its firewall or anti-virus acting up.

In the process of reinstalling and configuring, so far so good. Thanks Alex.
