Mushbeeguy Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 First, Total Noob. Please forgive my ignorance. Where I stand: I have a flight plan loaded in FSX (acceleration boxed), I have disabled any virus detection, Win10. Current AIRAC supplied by Navigraph. I follow instructions for the FMS from page 46 of the included manual. I Complete 'Position Initialization'. I have 'loaded' displayed above my selection. *Next step is 'entering flight plan', The first error is there is no ICAO code displayed. From this point on I am unable to complete anything other than config the acft loads. I am unable to either create a route from scratch or load the current FSX flight plan. What basic steps am I missing? Thanks for any answers and your welcome if you got as laugh from this note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mushbeeguy Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) I did run sfc.exe /scannow with no errors. The erj.log shows errors for ODBC "Connectdriver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};dbq=D:\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\FeelThere\Nd\nd.mdbTrying ConnectConnect errorConnect errorMicrosoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers : [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not find file '(unknown)'.hr = 0X80004005before loading plansplans loaded" I verified nd.mdb was not in the stated location. What version are you calling? MDAC 2.8 stopped being supported a long time ago, I believe Win2003 Server/XP, although it could be wedged into Win7. Note: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms810805.aspx Can you be more specific on your program's needs? Any other ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Mushbeeguy Posted April 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Ok, here is what was going on. The Jets populated a directory called Nd, but didn't put any AIRAC data in it (hence can't find file) There was a locking file nd.ldb that seemd to prevent DIRECT download from Navigraph to the directory the jets were looking for info. Deleting that file and having Navigraph send it to a subdirectory THEN manually coppying it to Nd solved my initial problem. This never was a MDAC issue, but at least it taught me to look for a log file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
