Driver170 Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 Hi, i reinstalled packages but now when i click on profile specific i get this message. My other simconnect apps don’t connect either. Can someone help please?
John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 Please show me / attach your FSUIPC7.log file. Also, try exiting and restarting - does it then work? John
Driver170 Posted July 3 Author Report Posted July 3 I will attach that soon. But i have other problems with simconnect as my prosim shows not connect and also vpiloy
John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 I am not interested in images, especially from vPilot. I only support FSUIPC. Please show me the log file. John

John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 The log file shows that you started FSUIPC7 manually when MSFS was already running, and it failed to establish a stable SimConnect connection. Can you please exit MSFS (and all your MSFS clients) - and also maybe reboot your system. Then restart MSFS, and let FSUIPC7 and let get auto started (presuming you are using auto-start). Once MSFS gets to the main menu, wait a short while to see if FSUIPC7 gets a connection. Once it does, or if it doesn't after a short period, exit FSUIPC7 and then show me the FSUIPC7.log file. If you are not using auto-start, please start FSUIPC7 AFTER MSFS has started and arrived at the main menu. John P.S. Before re-starting MSFS, please change the InitialStallTime parameter in your FSUIPC7.ini to 15, i.e. InitialStallTime=15
Driver170 Posted July 3 Author Report Posted July 3 ah sorry about that, i did start MSFS trhen FSUIPC auto loads. what i done there was try to manually connect FSUIPC then sent the logs. I'm starting MSFS again and will send those logs
John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 4 minutes ago, Driver170 said: I'm starting MSFS again and will send those logs Please change the InitialStallTime first... I think you have your FSUIPC7 start-up parameters badly tuned, so it is re-connecting too many times and using up all the simconnect connections, and so preventing other clients to connect, You need to tune your FSUIPC7 start-up parameters (or use auto-tuning). Anyway, your logs will confirm this. Taking the dogs for a walk now, I will look at your logs when I get back... John
Driver170 Posted July 3 Author Report Posted July 3 I will change that on the next start up as i already launched MSFS sorry FSUIPC7.log
John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 That log again shows FSUIPC7 was manually started, and with InitialStallTime=5. Are you not using auto-start? If manually starting, when are you starting FSUIPC7? As I said, if manually starting, make sure MSFS is already running and has passed loading to the main menu. But once you have so many re-connection attempts, best to exit MSFS and start again. And, as I said, I would reboot your system to start afresh.
Driver170 Posted July 3 Author Report Posted July 3 I just changed it to =15 I start MSFS manually ans shortly after FSUIPC auto loads via the exe.xml entry?

Both of the log files you attached show FSUIPC7 manually started: 141 Manually started with DetectToConnectDelay=1, InitialStallTime=5 John
Driver170 Posted July 3 Author Report Posted July 3 I started a new log and used FSUIPC launch icon FSUIPC7.log
John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 4 minutes ago, Driver170 said: I started a new log and used FSUIPC launch icon Ok. That log shows FSUIPC7 was auto-started and it connected and everything looks ok. Was not everything working? One thing to note is that you DetectToConnectDelayAuto parameter is quite high (375). This may be ok, if MSFS takes > 5mins to boot to the main menu, but if MSFS isa ready sooner this will imply that FSUIPC7 will not connect and be available for some time after MSFS has started. You can change this parameter to 60, and then also set StartUpTuningActive=Yes to re-run auto-tuning, and that should then set a good value for this parameter. John
Driver170 Posted July 3 Author Report Posted July 3 Hey, it wasn’t working before this morning. But after i restarted my PC it seemed to connect ok. So using MSFS FSUIPC icon launches it automatically? But using MSFS.exe it manually starts up?
John Dowson Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 25 minutes ago, Driver170 said: So using MSFS FSUIPC icon launches it automatically? But using MSFS.exe it manually starts up? FSUIPC7 should start-up automatically however you start MSFS, if using the EXE.xml auto-start method. 25 minutes ago, Driver170 said: Hey, it wasn’t working before this morning. But after i restarted my PC it seemed to connect ok. Yes, your SimConnect seemed to be blocked, which is why I recommended a reboot. Usually restarting MSFS should fix this, but if problems persist always better to reboot. John

John I will try 60 but my sim takes longer than 5 Only parameter i see is StartUpTuningDoneVersion=1

Drrick Posted July 4 Report Posted July 4 Just to be sure about the procedure: When i start MSFS from the Icon, i have to start FSUIPC manually after the start-screen in MSFS has settled When i start MSFS from the "FSUIPC" start icon, it will start after a set time by itself If i re-installed MSFS (while it did not start anymore) in the same folders where it was before, can i still use the FSUIPC start icon from the first install, or do i need to re-install FSUIPC to get a new connection? cheers from Germany

Please be aware that FSUIPC has 2 different auto-start methods: 1. via the EXE.xml 2, via the MSFS.bat file So it depends on which method you are using. If using the EXE.xml auto-start method, MSFS will start FSUIPC7 however it is started. If using the MSFS.bat method, FSUIPC7 will only be started when using the desktop icon installed by FSUIPC (or the MSFS.bat file which is what it links to). PLEASE see the installation and registration guide for details on these two different auto-start components. And there is a FAQ entry on MSFS auto-start if you are having any issues. I have really said all I can about FSUIPC7 and auto-start, and many times. Please see the documentation and FAQ entries on this - all the information is there. And there is a FAQ entry on the start-up parameters, as well as a asection in the Advanced User guide. And I don't l know why you added your comment to this topic, which is related to simconnect issues and not auto-start. Please do not hijack unrelated topics. Anyway, the OPs issue was solved by rebooting his PC, so I am closing this topic now. John
