Andrew Allen Posted November 26, 2017 at 12:55 AM Posted November 26, 2017 at 12:55 AM Okay guys, so I logged onto vatsim, and I went to press connect on XSquawkBox and this showed: http://prntscr.com/hfaix3 What is this? How can I fix it? Did I do something wrong? Thanks, Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dace Nicmane Posted November 26, 2017 at 11:03 AM Posted November 26, 2017 at 11:03 AM (edited) I think you have to enter the IP address. You can get it from the VATSpy server tab. Edit: Don't do it. See below. Edited January 1, 2018 at 10:16 PM by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Collins Posted November 27, 2017 at 10:08 PM Posted November 27, 2017 at 10:08 PM Okay guys, so I logged onto vatsim, and I went to press connect on XSquawkBox and this showed: http://prntscr.com/hfaix3 That should only happen when the server list has not downloaded properly or you've manually diddled with the contents of the server address field after setting the desired server (causing it to not match the entry in the server table). That said, make sure your XSB Plugin is up to date first. Check log.txt for information about the failure. If it looks like it should have known about the server from the lines in log.txt, please submit an issue report on the XSB website and be sure to include the FULL log.txt file. (including only excerpts of the log gets your report binned.) (Also bear in mind that log.txt gets replaced every time you restart x-plane, so the moment you see it fail, you'll need to save the log file - a log.txt from a working run doesn't help me find the cause and then I can only bin the request). Do not enter server IPs manually unless you're running X-Plane 9 or older with an unsupported version of XSB. You should never need to do this for normal operation. (Use of proxies is not normal operation). XSquawkBox - Developer/Maintainer Please post any support related questions to the XSquawkBox support forum rather than private messaging me, thanks.

Dace Nicmane Posted November 28, 2017 at 12:42 AM Posted November 28, 2017 at 12:42 AM Huh? I guess I have the same problem then. But I entered the IP address manually and it's working. XSB 1.3.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XSB 1.3.3. Of course that works - it's the equivalent of manually smashing a jackhammer repeatedly against a slab of concrete to break it up because you can't get the pneumatic supply to work. It gets the job done, but it's not efficient nor the right way.
