I installed the previous version. Threw out unhandled exception error.

 

I installed the update that just came out 1.1.12.20140

 

Same issue. I have never had it installed before.

 

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 on Dell Laptop. 8GB Ram 64bit OS, Intel i5-2450M CPU @ 2.50 GHz

 

187 GB Free disk space.

 

I have to create new location because there are none pre-configured

 

Error message below - Any ideas would be appreciated!

 

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

 

For example:

 

 

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

So, you're getting the crash when you try to create a facility? What facility are you trying to add? I can't seem to reproduce the error...

I have tried KOAK, KSFO, CYVR.....

 

I get to add the name eg. Oakland, San Francisco, Vancouver - Thats when it crashes. As soon as I hit enter.

 

Thanks for your [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance. I hope I can get this working. I know others from KZOA have it working.

Odd...I can't reproduce it. Have you used vATIS successfully in the past, or is this your first time using it? Try deleting the vATISConfig.xml file (located in %appdata%\vATIS directory) and then try adding a facility into vATIS.

Hey Justin,

 

There is no file by that name anywhere.

 

But I do have an Airports.xml file which is propogated with several airports. The program isn't even loading or seeing it.

 

I tried removing it and restarting - no change

Yes, this is a new install - never installed before

I have uninstalled and re-installed - no change

 

Maybe someone could put up a vATISConfig.xml and I will copy it into the folder. Maybe that will fix the issue.

 

Thanks everyone!

I'm stumped now. vATIS should automatically create the config file (vATISConfig.xml) upon start-up, and for some reason, it's not happening for you.

 

You can try downloading this config file template and placing it in your %appdata%\vATIS directory and launching vATIS again.

That did it Justin!

 

Now I just have to load a configuration file. So off to the docs to come up to speed.

 

Cheers!

Looks like I spoke too soon. After messing around with it some more, I was finally able to reproduce the error you received. I'll work on a fix...

So I guess some kind of Profiles are supposed to download with the install too???

 

I guess I got a lemon somehow.

 

Can you shoot me a profile.gz as well please?

Trying to create one, but the docs are unclear and when I select new profile and try to add items I keep getting

the message saying that I need to load a profile. lol

 

Oh boy....

Once you load the facility, you will need to create a profile configuration (e.g. WEST OPS). To do this, go to the "Configuration" tab, click "New Profile" and provide a name for the profile. Once you do that, select the profile from the list and click "Load Profile". You can now configure it as you like - any changes you make will be saved to the loaded profile.
