Jeremy Laporte Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hello, Since I updated to FSUIPC 4.927a my wideFS is not working. My FSX is saying waiting for clients and on my secondary computer WideFS is saying Waiting for a connection. Which log or info would I need to provide for help getting this issue resolved?

Pete Dowson Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Since I updated to FSUIPC 4.927a my wideFS is not working. Sincerely, Jeremy Laporte There is no change in WideFS with any release since a long time ago. What was your previous version? Which log or info would I need to provide for help getting this issue resolved? Oddly enough it would be the ones called WideServer.log on the Server and WideClient.log on the Client. Show me those please. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Laporte Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Nevermind Pete, Yesterday when the problem happenned I rebooted the computer 2/3 times and it was still not working.

Jeremy Laporte Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Ok Pete, Once again I tried to fly and same problem Wide client does not connect. The only difference compare to my test session that I plugged into my FSX computer my Saitek Yoke and Throttle quadrants and a USB headset. Here is the Wide server log of a test I ran just after my flight: ********* WideServer.DLL Log [version 7.927a] *********Blocksize guide = 8192 (double allowed)Date (dmy): 29/12/13, Time 20:12:30.106: Server name is FSX 16052 Initialising TCP/IP server 16052 Initialising UDP/IP server 16130 Broadcasting service every 1000 mSecs 71869 Closing down now ...Memory managed: Offset records: 29 alloc, 28 freeRead buffer usage: 0 alloc, 0 free, max in session: 0Write buffer usage: 0 alloc, 0 free, max in session: 0Throughput maximum achieved: 0 frames/sec, 0 bytes/secThroughput average achieved for complete session: 0 frames/sec, 0 bytes/sec********* Log file closed ********* Surprisingly I do not have a wideclient.log I start Wideclient but no file with log appears. Any idea what is going on? I used to have my Saitek products before without problem (no updates) Sincerely, Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Richter Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Hi, make sure you have in WideClient.ini file this line below [user] Log=Errors+ If you run Vista or Win7 you will face those problems when e.g. the network setup was done with internet connection because windows sees the network as Private but next time you disconnected from internet on PC start the network setup will change to Public and so many things are blocked. If you then connect internet and start again, everything is working fine (Windows magic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Laporte Posted January 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Hello Thomas, Thank you so much for your answer. Nonetheless I have a little bit of difficulty to understand what I need to do. Do I have to disconnect the internet on my Laptop with WideFS client (Vista) and then reconnect the internet? Or do I have to do something on my FSX computer (win 7). My FSX computer is connected to my router through an ethernet cable while my laptop is through wireless. I do have both computers on the same network though because on FSX I have active sky next and on laptop I have PFPX and have them share some folders so I can use ASN weather with PFPX and then import the flight plans straight to my FSX. Thank you for clarifying what I need to do and I will add the line in the ini to get the wide client log if needed. Sincerely, Jeremy Also happy new year to everbody on the forum Edited January 1, 2014 by Jeremy Laporte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It is just to know if you did the setup while having internet connection the same setup will not work proper when you start next time without a internet connection because Win change the Network type from private to public and block some stuff. My FSX computer is connected to my router through an ethernet cable while my laptop is through wireless. I do have both computers on the same network though because on FSX I have active sky next and on laptop I have PFPX and have them share some folders so I can use ASN weather with PFPX and then import the flight plans straight to my FSX. Make sure you have both in the same workgroup and the IP's are fixed set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Surprisingly I do not have a wideclient.log I start Wideclient but no file with log appears. You are looking in the wrong place, then. WideClient always produces a log. Please read the section in the WideFS user guide about configuring your network. You may need to specify the Server name or IP address and the Protocol. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
