FSUIPC, FTG acars and connection to FS

[special20]

Hi all,

I installed the latest version of FSUIPC (I didn't register it) and when I want to connect FTG acars (the system to send PIREP for FTG Virtual Air France) to FS I get the following message error : "FSUIPC NOT FOUND". I verified and FSUIPC is installed in the modules folder of my FS installation folder.

Can you help me ?

I installed the latest version of FSUIPC (I didn't register it)

Which one is that? 3.96, 3.971, 4.57 or 4.587? Those are the current latest and supported versions. You need to be more specific please.

and when I want to connect FTG acars (the system to send PIREP for FTG Virtual Air France) to FS I get the following message error : "FSUIPC NOT FOUND". I verified and FSUIPC is installed in the modules folder of my FS installation folder.

If this is with FS9, is the a Modules menu entry with FSUIPC listed? If this is with FSX (you do really need to mention this sort of thing, please), is there an Add-Ons menu entry with FSUIPC listed?

Are you running FS "as administrator" but not your program, or vice versa? Running things at different privilege levels prevents them talking to each other.

Did you let FS install itself into Windows "Program Files"? If so, those folders are protected on Vista and Windows 7. Maybe the program you are running needs to access them?

Does the documentation for the program say exactly what it means by "FSUIPC NOT FOUND"? Do the authors or publishers have a support site?

Do you have any other programs using FSUIPC and working okay?

Regards

Pete

I'm absent-minded :oops:

I've got the 3.96 version installed on FS 9 with the FS 9 patch. . I recently upgraded windows from Vista to Seven. After this upgrade I reinstalled FS 9.

Since then I can not connect anymore FSCommander to FS with the following error message : "Unable to connect to Flight Simulator Msg # (no process response)".

On the contrary I can fly on IVAO without any problem :!:

I run FS as administrator but not "FSCommander" and "FTG acars" so I'll change the privilege level for those 2 programs and I'll try again.

Moreover I'll change the security level for the FS folder default installation.

Lastly I have no documentation about the errors related to this program. I left a message on the support forum of Virtual Ai France but as this is not very active I may have no answer before several days.

See you

IVAO uses FSInn plus another DLL I think, or Ivap. None of those use FSUIPC, and the internal DLLs won't have any different privilege to FS as they are inside it.

I run FS as administrator but not "FSCommander" and "FTG acars" so I'll change the privilege level for those 2 programs and I'll try again.

Yes, if they are on different levels they cannot talk. Why are you running FS as administrator in any case?

Now I run FTG acars in administrator mode and everything is OKsince I upgraded Vista to Seven I don't have the choice : I can't run FS in an other mode than administrator :evil:

Strange. I use Win7 on three systems, and never run either FS9 or FSX "as administrator".
