What new IP address? My Vatspy is having a problem with data download since a few days. It keeps saying the data are outdated.

I also got the "Data is outdated" message.

(And now Vatspy won't even open.. Very strange.) EDIT: it opens now after a PC reboot, but still get the "outdated data".

 

I'm sure I must have missed something as I can't recall anything about a new ip address.

The data are being updated normally, so it's not a problem with the data source. Normally this issue is caused by the clock on your computer being set wrong or having the wrong time zone set.

Thanks Ross.

 

Later last night it seemed to be working again, as I did a short flight online and it updated normally without error.

 

But the "new server IP address", is that something we should change manually or is it done automatically?

Pardon the noob question...

 

Cheers.

I'm not sure what that person was referring to. There is no server IP address that you have to configure in VAT-Spy.

When I get out of vatspy, then try to see it again, it will not come up. Someone was saying it was already running in the background. How do you force it up?

Did you check if it is minimized to the system tray?

You said "Someone was saying it was already running in the background." Did you verify that that is actually the case?

So then check to see if it actually is still running in the background.

Look at Task manager.

 

But if its not in the system tray, then it would not be running.

Sometimes Vatspy just dies and disappears. Then you have to close it via TaskManager and restart.
