Don't edit the INI, click the button in the FSUIPC options to enable or disable it!

Tks for the reply, I have enable the widefs in fsuipc option and setting,however widefsenable = no in ini file. Will simconnect cause any problem, I can only see simconnect open succeeded in fsuipc log file but not widefs. Pls bear with me i am very new at all this. Thank u

Except for buttons, switches, axis settings, parameters in the INI only get updated on a normal close of FS.

Will simconnect cause any problem

No. WideFS is independent of SimConnect. But FSUIPC must have the full interface to SimConnect working, of course.

I can only see simconnect open succeeded in fsuipc log file but not widefs.

WideServer has its own log file. That's where you look -- WideServer.LOG in the Modules folder. WideClient also makes a log. If you have WideFS problems those are the places to look.

Pls bear with me i am very new at all this

You don't need any experience to use WideFS. I don't know why you are studying INI files and wrong LOG files instead of just saying why you think it isn't working! You've not even said if you have a problem, yet!

Sorry Peter, here is the problem wideserver does not seem to be working , I can not get update on wideserver.log file after close fs. Wideclient log show okay IP address but error on client pre-connection select() error=10061 connection refused.

Thanks

What does that mean? I don't understand you. Are you saying there is no WideServer log file at all, or you can't read it, or what?

Wideclient log show okay IP address but error on client pre-connection select() error=10061 connection refused.

That might mean WideServer isn't running, but it might also mean that there is a Firewall preventing access.

Let me clarify one thing: the "WideFSEnabled" parameter in the INI always defaults to "Yes". The only thing that will ever turn it to "No", other than editing the INI, is clicking on the button in the FSUIPC options to disable it. That facility is intended simply to allow WideServer to be temporarily disabled for any reason.

The only thing which stops WideServer running otherwise is a lack of Registration. Perhaps you need to check the FSUIPC log itself to make sure it shows that you are Registered for WideFS!

Please, rather than trying to interpret Log files yourself, you should just paste them into your messages here. They won't be too long and I will be able to see more clearly what you are doing.

Regards

hi peter, i have enable widefs option in fsx and all firewall are off. the time in wideserver.dll is not update

So, that's an old copy of WideSever.Log? WideServer log is actually created only if it enabled, so it seems you did have it enabled earlier today and have disabled it since then!

BTW, I was wrong when I said that the WideFSenabled parameter in the INI was only changed on FS exit --it is actually changed when you OK from the FSUIPC Options. If you 'Cancel' or Escape' out then nothing is changed.

[WideServer]

WideFSenabled=No

AdvertiseService=1

Port=8002

Port2=9002

With that in your INI file the "About" tab in FSUIPC will show whether your WideFS is registered or not (if so it will give your name and email in that bottom right quarter), and the button will show "Enable WideFS". If you press that it will change to "Disable WideFS" and when you press OK, the INI file is updated. WideFS is enabled when FSUIPC shows your are registered and the button shows that you can Disable it.

It sounds like you are rather mixed up on the function of the button. It does what it says on the label!

Regards

Pete
