Jon Kruth Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:23 PM Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:23 PM (edited) Hi folks, after the implementation of the new voice technology, i decided to give it a try. So I registered for vatsim yesterday and downloaded vPilot. Everything worked, I can connect and I can see other traffic, but it always gives me the message "Error connecting to voice server: Connect failed (Forbidden - )" I found someone with the same error, but there it was said that the sync will take place at 12z every day. Unluckily that time p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ed and I am still not able to connect to voice servers. Any further suggestions how to proceed?

Board of Governors Simon Kelsey Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:29 PM Board of Governors Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:29 PM Hi there Jon, Welcome to VATSIM! What time did you register? My guess is that it will be to do with the tming of the various databases synchronising. One of the VATSIM network team, or Gary, might come along with better information but I would guess that your login details just hadn't propagated around enough to be picked up in today's voice authentication sync, but I will do some checking. In the interim if it's still not working tomorrow evening when it will all have had a full 24 hours to have propagated around the network let us know! Sorry for the delay in getting your VATSIM experience started! Best, Simon Vice President, Pilot Training Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Kruth Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:33 PM Author Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:33 PM Hi Simon, thanks for you quick reply! I just double-checked it and I got the mail with my credentials at 2037z. So then, I will wait and let you know if its not working tomorrow.

David McConnell 1259010 Posted October 15, 2019 at 04:11 PM Posted October 15, 2019 at 04:11 PM Hello, I am having the same issue, but my account has been around since 2013 (albeit used very lightly) I am able to connect, but immediately receive "[11:09:52] Error connecting to voice server: Connect failed (Forbidden - )" I haven't had any successful connects.

Gary Oliver Posted October 15, 2019 at 04:30 PM Posted October 15, 2019 at 04:30 PM Can you double check you have put your p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]word in case sensitive. The FSD servers are not case sensitive but the audio system is. This might explain it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Kruth Posted October 16, 2019 at 01:36 PM Author Posted October 16, 2019 at 01:36 PM Okay, it is working now. So, just a little patience was needed! So far, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
