[AirNav Support]

davec,

Did you do full install or the manual one?

[vonsmalhausen]

hi i am having a problem installingv3.01 i get the message;
this application has failed tp start beacuse rb.11was not found reinstalling the application may fix the problem.
anybody help please
davec

i had the same problem on my Vista laptop ( on my XP desktop all wen't OK )
open the Airnav folder and probably you will see 2 RB folders in it : the 3.0 beta and a new one, just called RB 2009 ; i just cut/pasted the contends of the new one in the "original" one, and voila : RB 3.01 works fine.

i still have a problem with the outlines and station names ; to get the outlines in the "airport collor" and display all the names of the VOR stations ( some are showing right away ) i have to locate first LFPG ( Paris CDG ) afther that all stations and names display correctly !? ( it does'nd work if i locate a other airport in my list, it seems it has to be the last in the dropdown list )
apart from this, all works great now, and verry happy with the "FIX fix"
great job Airnav.

- Fully compatible with all SBS-1 addons (you may now use any of our competitor addons);

I think what you mean is "Fully compatible with all SBS-1 addons that use the 30003 port output"

Clearly other add-ons that interface directly with the database won't be compatible as the RB's and SBS's databases are different.

That's not mean as a criticism, simply a clarification.

Have downloaded ANRB 3.1 beta to both an XP and Vista machine and it runs perfectly on both. However, has anyone tried adding a SQB file to V3.1?

The reason I ask is that I have just done this to my XP machine and on every attempt bar one it stopped importing after varying times and when it stopped importing the program quickly closed itself with no warnings. On the final (7th attempt) it actually showed on the bottom line that it had imported 21,023 of 22946 and then closed down. On re-opening ANRB I found that only 19,800 had actually made it. I can live with it not bringing all records in (I assume there was something it did not like about the missing records, but the quick, unprovoked closedown is a problem.

I have just done a manual install here - and upto now everything is working as it should be.

Thank you AirNav for all the hard work you have done, getting the software working how it should be.

Keep up the good work.

After all that hard work getting the port 30003 output right, nobody seems to be using it!

Roadrunner,

AirNav Is that the .sqb file you would like to see.

As an update, I tried exactly the same .SQB file which failed on my XP desktop PC on my Vista laptop and it loaded the complete file and took in 22,919 of the 22,946 records in seconds and remained open. So for now I have copied the mylog file from my laptop back to my desktop PC and it is working OK.

I can send a copy of the sqb if it will help

Regards

Maybe because it's no longer real-time   :-)

hi dave
Does the squawk still work real time, i used that all the time, but its useless now.

MSG,n type messages on port 30003 are 5-minute delayed.  Others, such as AIR, ID, SEL, etc. are real-time (I think).

Squawk is 5-minute delayed - I just wish Airnav had incorporated Squawk Code lookup in v3, but it didn't make it into the final version :(  I really miss the ability to get automatic squawk code lookups in real-time, the only backward-step in v3.

yes tarbat.
i loved it myself, it was a great add on, but the 5 min delay kill it, the squawk code is now useless.

Try convincing Airnav to include it in v3. as they originally planned to!!

Many thanks to all for correcting the alerts/e-mail issue. It now works fine

Hallo Adrian,

I do not understand that. With me the alerts/e-mail function is still NOT working. Maybe I do something wrong but I do not see what. The only thing I know is that it was working verry well in versions before the Beta's...
