SirThomasPlus Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Good morning, I've used FSUIPC for several years now in P3D V3 without any problems, however, I've bought myself V4 last autumn and had since then the problem that always if I tried to install FSUIPC 5, it seemed to only install the Documents Folder, the Install Log file and the FSUIPC5.DLL. This is my install log: Looking in registry for Prepar3D v4 install path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 Parameter"AppPath" ... >>> OK! FOUND Prepar3D v4! <<< ...

John Dowson Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi Tommy, What other files did you expect? Did you try running P3d - this should create your ini and log files. This may be a problem: Attempt to set the ACL entries for Modules access permissions failed, error = 1332 This is a problem which only exists since Windows 10, and only when you let P3D install in Windows\Program Files. That folder is protected unless you run "as administrator". Now, for most installations, this isn't a problem because provided you run the Installer "as administrator" it is able to change the permissions (just on the Modules folder) automatically. But on just a few systems it is prevented and gets that Error 1332. So, first, if you didn't run the Installer by right-clicking and selecting "run as administrator", please do that now. If there still is no FSUIPC5.LOG or INI after you run P3D, I can only suggest that you edit the permissions on the Modules folder yourself: Allow full access by right clicking on the folder properties: Security-->add Everyone as a user name, then check 'Full Control' access below. You should also register your FSUIPC version when you install for the first time. Regards, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirThomasPlus Posted January 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Hi John, indeed i installed FSUIPC by right clicking and then running the exe as administrator, so I tried -as you described above- to add "Everyone" as new user and give full control to him. The Problem is, as soon as I enter the new "objectname" and click on the OK-button, it says that the object named "Everyone" has not been found and that I should make sure if I've chosen the right path. Do you also have a solution for that, or did I just get you wrong? Regards, Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted January 12, 2019 Report Share Posted January 12, 2019 Sounds like you have some problems with your system... Have you actually tried to start P3D? If not please do so and then report issues and maybe the log file. Thanks, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Rather than entering an 'object name', click the 'Advanced' button, and in the display dialog box just click the 'Find Now' button. You should see an 'Everyone' in the search results - select that and then 'Ok'. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirThomasPlus Posted January 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hello again, as you described above, I've finally managed to add "Everyone" to the Modules folder and give it full permissions. Unfortunately things haven't changed at all and there are still neither more nor any different files than the ones I showed you in the screenshot in my very fist post. What came to my mind is: could there be a problem that FSUIPC could interfer as there is already a FSUIPC-version installed on my PC (in Prepar3d V3) which is running on the same hard disk as Prepar3d V4? I'll by curious to your answers. Regards, Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hi Tommy, it should be fine to have FSUIPC4 installed for P3Dv3 and FSUIPC5 for P3Dv4. Have you tried starting P3Dv4? If not, please do so and let me know if you can see the 'FSUIPC...' option in the 'Add-ons' menu. Your ini and log files should be generated when you start P3D. Your key file will be generated when you register. Cheers, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirThomasPlus Posted January 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hi John, sorry for the late answer, but I've been kinda busy with school the last week. Unfortunately, there is no Add-ons button with FSUIPC, there are also no ini files in the Modules folder. Reagrds, Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a corrupt DLL.XML file. Try renaming it (it is in your AppData\Roaming folder for the simulator), and re-running the FSUIPC4 Installer. Pete .

SirThomasPlus Posted January 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 Alright, I found the DLL.XML file. Which name should I set now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 1 hour ago, SirThomasPlus said: Alright, I found the DLL.XML file. Which name should I set now? You are just re-naming it so you can restore it after, or use it to restore other DLLs you have installed. So just choose any old name -- perhaps "DLL.PREVXML" or "PREVDLL.XML" Running the FSUIPC Installer as administrator will then create a new DLL.XML just to get FSUIPC loaded.

John Dowson Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 Did you re-run the installer (as administrator)? If so, please post the install log and maybe the DLL.XML(has the FSUIPC section been created in this file?). If a FSUIPC5.log file is created when you start P3D, please also post this file.

John Dowson Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 You still have this error: Attempt to set the ACL entries for Modules access permissions failed, error = 1332 Can you check the permissions on the modules folder again please. As previously mentioned, you need to correct this first and then re-install. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Could you also post your simconnect log file, which should show an error loading the dll. You will need to activate this by editing your SimConnect.ini file (C:\Users\Tommy\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Files\SimConnect.ini) to contain: [SimConnect] level=normal console=no file=D:\SimConnect.log Then start and then stop the sim and post the generated log file. Hopefully this will tell us why the dll is not being loaded. We could also try starting FSUIPC with the xml add-on method rather than using the dll.xml. I can post instructions on how to do this if/when needed. Cheers, John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirThomasPlus Posted February 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Hello John, my Prepar3D v4 Files folder is empty. I then tried to run the Simconnect.msi Installer in the FSX-SPACK 2 Folder found here: D:\Programme\Flugsimulator & Co\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\redist\Interface\FSX-SP2-XPACK\retail\lib but there is still no simconnect.ini file. I also restarted the sim and reinstalled FSUIPC, but there are no changes visible. Greetings, Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 1 hour ago, SirThomasPlus said: my Prepar3D v4 Files folder is empty. You need to save the SimConnect.ini file that John showed you into that folder! Then it wouldn't be empty! Simconnect.INI isn't created by P3D but by you. In [SimConnect] level=normal console=no file=D:\SimConnect.log You can put whatever path you like in place of the D:\. That would just save it to the root folder of your D:\ drive. 1 hour ago, SirThomasPlus said: I then tried to run the Simconnect.msi Installer in the FSX-SPACK 2 Folder found here: You do not have to install Simconnect -- it is built into P3D. Some thrid party programs, run outside of P3D, might need such a version -- the older ones are for FSX and FSX-Se, with a different one for each FSX build and for fSX-SE. Programs written for FSX may need one or the other. But FSUIPC is a DLL which runs inside P3D and doesn't need a separate older Simconnect. In any case they are all 32-bit and FSUIPC + P3D4 are 64-bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
