Have it running (downloaded new ANRB.exe file only) now and first problem I encounter is flights not being removed from MyFlights.
Set at 60 seconds and aircraft have been on MyFlights for over 15 minutes.

thanks

(Not busy near home today so not much traffic to test with.)

Post by: airdata on October 01, 2009, 06:46:27 AM: Uninstalled previous ANRB software completely (including registry keys) and did a clean install of 3.06b. Installed OK but on first running, after filling in the prefences, the preferences window will not close. So can't do anything else....

Tried the above twice but still no joy. Back to previous version....

Post by: bratters on October 01, 2009, 08:08:39 AM: I regret I still have a problem with My Flights and aircraft not being removed until a huge pile up occurs and the program hangs.

As far as I can tell this only happens when I sort MyFlights by Dist(NM) in descending order - ie furthest away first.

The MyFlights numbers steadily increase as flights are not removed (ten second timeout in my case) then the whole thing just grinds to a halt. The only answer seems to be to shut down and start again.

This does not seem to happen if I sort by Flight ID or Airline and the problem did not effect V 2.01.

Hope this helps.

Backup your existing program directory before you start, just in case you need to restore some files.

The polar diagram data is saved in:

Until Microsoft sign the drivers and provide them to Airnav they can't be released. The delay is not down to Airnav, but they did state that if they are available when the v3.x software is released then they will put them in the installer package then. Otherwise they will be released separately at a later date.

Post by: GreekSpy2001 on October 01, 2009, 03:59:22 PM: Hi All

Alerts - Is this behaviour by design? The sw doesn't alert for a second time in a day if a hit is made. For example. Earlier this morning I had an alert for 737 EI-EFR. This afternoon it's flown past again and this time no alert.

Saw this behaviour in the previous versions but wanted to test with 3.06 before posting.

Can you advise if its a feature or bug?

Well the official list of suggestions/improvements includes a reference to

Email Alerts at consecutive days problem corrected

which kind of suggests that you're only meant to get one alert per day per aircraft, though I could be wrong.

Email alerts and on-screen alerts are not the same though are they? I'm assuming Graham means on-screen alerts.

OK, I stand corrected. I'd been assuming that the alerting logic was the same regardless of how the alerts were delivered - on screen or via email.

But if you're saying that that's not the case ...

I'm saying it may not be the case, but I don't know for sure.

I'm not certain that I've ever seen an aircraft I have an alert set for twice in a day, so it's possible that this has never worked for me either.
Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: GreekSpy2001 on October 01, 2009, 05:35:40 PM: Definitely referring to on screen alerts.

The scenario I have is an arrival at LHR might not be seen due to inbound routing but outbound would be seen so a second alert is needed by me. Maybe a feature request if its not a bug.

Thanks

Graham

Post by: Manuel Mendes on October 01, 2009, 06:23:22 PM: Another thing that happened to me.
I had a NavData.db3, more updated than the NavData present on version 3.06 so I had overritten the installed one (the present on v3.06)
I lost some aircraft details and updates and there are aircraf that I entered and now they're gone.
Don't know why but just to note.

The routes are still a problem but that is a fact that AirNav cannot be responsible for.

- New/Updated AIRAC cycle: more than 100 thousand updated aviation database (airport, runway, VOR, NDB);

On this point I have some doubts on the veracity with regard to Portugal, as the aerodromo de Évora (lpev) which is the busiest in the country does not appear on the map, only the ICAO code, or the runway and the outlines do not appear. It would be too much to ask that someone to fix that error?

Hello Rod,

LPEV is not an airport, but an air-field and in air-field is based Aeronautical Academy of Europe(http://www.aae.pt/), with more movement than the air-field LPCS. It also has planes coming from other academy and other air-field's

Thanks

Post by: mighty3507 on October 01, 2009, 09:56:32 PM: I noticed this issue while running 3.06. I started running 3.06 about 8p local. I run ANRB 24/7. All seemed well when I went to sleep night. This morning, I checked my scheduled reports that run around midnight keeping an eye out for anything unusual in the log data. I did find something odd. According to my custom report that runs against MyLog.db3, there were no flights logged after 10p local. However, as I looked at screen in the morning all looked fine. I also checked ‘my log’ from within the application and the grid showed that had I indeed logged flights since 10p and into the morning.

So, I did a little more checking. I looked at the log file details using file explorer to see the last access times of MyLog.db3. MyLog.db3 showed a last accessed of approx 10p. I then noticed that my MyLog.db3-joural file was being updated in real time and was up to 1mb in size. Normally the journal file is a few kb or 0 in size. ( My assumption is that the journal file contains the latest db transactions and is emptied after they are written to MyLog.db3.). Well, I did a File->Exit and then restarted. I checked the last access time of Mylog.db3 and it corresponded to the start time of the application. I made a copy of MyLog.db3 and ran my report query using SQL Maestro. All the data in the journal file had been written to MyLog.db3.

I have been keeping an eye on the db files when I can today and it seems that the journal starts to grow approx an hour or two after restarting ANRB. I did not see this taking place in earlier versions. I have been running 3.02 since its release prior to the 3.06 version.

Anyone else notice this? (Although, it is a bit hard to detect unless you are looking for it)

Sorry for the long Post

Post by: tarbat on October 01, 2009, 10:02:01 PM: It could be that running your SQL report in SQL Maestro puts a lock on the MyLog database. Radarbox probably then waits for the lock to be released, spooling to the journal.

I always close ANRB before doing anything in SQL Maestro - I've seen too many locked database messages to trust SQL Maestro to release it's lock. Its why I asked Airnav to allow user-written SQL queries to be run from within Radarbox itself.

Tarbat,

I agree on the locking. However, I do try to prevent myself from putting a lock on the 'live' MyLog.db3 file. For example, I always make a copy of the Mylog.db3 file before running querries in SqlMaestro. I also never run anything directly against the Mylog.db3 file that ANRB is accessing. In fact, the nightly reports are run against a MyLog.db3 that is copied to a report directory by a scheduled task.

Maybe the copies causes issues?

However, the orginal issues started when there was no activity (copy or otherwise) against Mylog.db3

I completely removed all radarbox software from the computer (including the registry keys). Then did a reboot and installed v3.06b (full install). It installed OK but hangs on the preferences window why you try to input your location, etc.

I then removed everything again and installed v2.0. Then downloaded the upgrade to 3.06b which did work. So something is amiss with the full installer/software.

I like to thank AirNav for the newest (3.06) Beta in the first place. I installed this version in between succesfully.

I think there are still problems with the correct showing of flightid's and routes. Here is an exemple: here you see two different a/c with the same flight-id:

(http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/pp18/Bierboum/30609100201.jpg)

Some minutes later the flightid of PH-KZL changed (not the routing):

(http://i393.photobucket.com/albums/pp18/Bierboum/30609100202.jpg)

Here you see what my local route-database say about KLM1722:

Now, with v3.06 I find that I have to stop and start RadarBox and stop and start AirNav Decoder several times before they will connect to each other.

Anyone any idea what happens here?

Support,

In other words: can you confirm that problems like these I reported before are NOT solved with the new (3.06) version so that I can stop reporting Flight ID and routing-information errors?

The same here.
In reply to Airnav on the questions I asked on the other thread, I also have a subscription.
The patch worked OK on my desktop running XP, just as it did send out an error message but then worked, but Vista will not allow it to run.

Definitely referring to on screen alerts.

The scenario I have is an arrival at LHR might not be seen due to inbound routing but outbound would be seen so a second alert is needed by me. Maybe a feature request if its not a bug.

Thanks

Graham

Further to this I have had D-AISU alert both inbound and outbound of LHR today. Therefore the onscreen alerts work for more than one hit in a day. So it seems the onscreen alerts based on registration are still liable not to show 100% of the time. :-((

Post by: bearcat on October 02, 2009, 03:07:05 PM: Hi Romdouk

The reason you picked up some wrong logos is that

S6 is the IATA airline code for Star Airlines
AF is the IATA airline code for Air France

These code are cross referenced in your Airline database to the ICAO code to then show the relevant logo.

The blank one os because there will be no IATA/ICAO code and therefore no logo

Regards

Stewart

Results are terrible ... more duplicate entries appearing in my flights and if left running the thing freeezes & stops writing to my log.

Also do we have to double click on that message about the real time networking without the 5mins delay every time we switch RB on?

I assumed if we double clicked once to get rid it would not come back next time RB was started ... mine does keep coming back

Would one of the other downloads work better ?
and if so should I delete or rename my current airnav folder

Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: Allocator on October 02, 2009, 08:00:48 PM: I'd rename your exiting RB installation directory, then download the FULL V3.06 file and do a fresh install. Once you have established that it's running OK, then you can copy over any data files (MyLog.db3) from the old (renamed) installation to the new directory.

I ALWAYS do this when a new version comes out. If I want to go back to the old version, I just delete the new directory and rename the old directory to it's original name - easy :-)

Personally, I don't like 'upgrades' as you end up with all sorts of files you might not need. Windows upgrades are a case in point here!

well, i don't have the option for 2 photos download ticked, i only want 1 photo as they take a bit to much space i.m.o.
and as i mentioned before, i have this 'problem' only on local flights ; anything from my network list does get a picture automaticly if available on airliners
and it does not matter if there is only 1 picture availlable, even if there are more, in "my flights" = no automatic picture download.

I have done just as you are suggesting. I had no problems just manually installing the exe file everything seemed to work ok.

A few days later I installed the full download into a seperate directory and gave it a go.
I thougt it seemed to work slightly better with more decodes, although I've no concrete evidence to prove it.

I have only tried both with myflights and no network running

Help Please.

I saw a similar issue with V3.02 when I was in Frankfurt a few weeks back.

I have not seen it at home, or with V3.06 yet, but that might be more to do with the number of aircraft I was picking up at FRA compared with home.

Unfortunately, I have no screen shots, but recall two instances in FRA. Both had the same flight no, same route information but two aircraft showing in MyFlights. One was an Emirates 777 and the other an Air France EMB145. After say 10 mins, the correct aircraft was being displayed, and the wrong "duplicate" removed from MyFlights.

Is there any information I can gather from my setup to help assist in finding out what the issue is/was? Note, only the correct aircraft was entered into MyLog.

Regards

I've seen this too, I think it's all tied up with the other problems discussed here. Essentially the link between what's in My flights and what is on the map display is sometimes lost or the pointers lose sync so that different aircraft are identified by the same overall list entry.

Get the full download, since you won't have installed v2.01 it will do all you need.

I think that's one for Airnav, personally my 3.06 beta on Vista SP2 works perfectly happily without any error messages of that nature.

I am running Windows Vista, I have completely un-installed RB from my system then started again with my original RB 2009 disc this installs ok, I have had V3.01 running fine but when I try to install V3.06 it takes forever to install and then begins to start up and I get a big red X and the Access warning above.

Help please

Post by: tarbat on October 07, 2009, 09:11:19 AM: Where are you installing to? If you're running Vista, do NOT accept the default location folder - C:\Program Files\etc.....

Instead use a folder something like C:\Airnav\

That may not be the cause of your problem, but it's worth a go.

I had that problem. I cured it by downloading the ANRB.EXE file (manual installation) and replacing the current ANRB.EXE file with it.

Post by: Colin on October 07, 2009, 02:46:35 PM: After doing full install of 3.06 beta, first time I ran it, I got an Access Violation.
Unfortunately I did not think to screen shot it, and so I missed the instruction address. My only option was to hit okay, and then it kept cascading with that message. there was no option to terminate it, and it just kept looping with more of these.

Second time I ran it, I got an Access Violation at address 007D559A in module 'ANRB.EXE'. Read of address 00000374.
Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: Colin on October 07, 2009, 02:48:05 PM: I forgot to mention it also pops up a message after hitting okay saying it needs more information on the station. It is very hard to kill, because about once a second the access violation starts coming up.

It sounds like for some reason the registry keys have not been written correctly, all the settings are stored in the registry.

Are you able to run regedit to have a look?

Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: CoastGuardJon on October 08, 2009, 11:14:27 PM: Hi all, I've been trying to get the full version of Beta 3.06 to download and install - about 6 times, so far. The program seems to download OK (20 - 30 minutes later!), but on trying to run or install, it seems to go through all the correct steps, but as soon as the screen comes up with ANRB serial number and supplied password, hit the start button and I get one error message

Headed "ANRB 2009 - 3.06 Beta"

Script "Access Violation at the address 007D559A in module 'ANRB.exe'. Read of address 00000374"

then 51 error messages

Headed "ANRB 2009 - 3.06 Beta"

Script "Access Violation at the address 007DA682 in module 'ANRB.exe'. Read of address 00000378"

I can be quite specific about 51, as I then get a Microsoft Windows message saying ANRB.exe has stopped working (didn't I guess???), Windows will try to find a solution, which it doesn't.

The OS is Vista Home Premium, and I've previously had the 2009(8) CD version, and all 3 Betas running without any problems.

I have recently had to reset the laptop and restore (re-format HDD to original partitions) to original Acer factory defaults, all AirNav files and references have been deleted. This reset was undertaken, as a change of ISP from Orange to BT Internet, resulted in continual freeze-ups (appearances of BTFON and Openzone unsecured internet screens, which would not allow internet access).

Any suggestions please, before this flaming laptop gets launched off the nearby cliff.

I originally posted this as a new topic, but obviously it should be in here (Sorry, AN!).

I also have VHP 64 bit, with Digital Driver Enforcement turned onn. The box is a, HP e9180f with an i7 at 2.67 GHz. and 9 GB of RAM. I installed 3.06b in a standalone folder on the C: drive, as I had with prior versions.

I get the same Access Violation error with Win7 64bit Ultimate RTM version. I see a possible work around is getting and installing the released version of 3.0 and then applying the .exe for v3.06 over the top, correct?

Post by: razzorg on October 09, 2009, 09:21:03 PM: Hi All,
I too was getting the Access Violation notifications on Windows Vista 32bit and I believe I have found a solution. I uninstalled v3.06 and then did a fresh full install to C:\AirNav.
When asked to give a Program menu location I put in AirNav\Radarbox. Then before I started Radarbox after the installation, I replaced the .exe file in the C:\AirNav directory with
the one from the manual installation and voila... on startup everything seems to be working now..

Hope this helps.

Rgds,
Ray
Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: AirNav Development on October 10, 2009, 08:14:33 AM: For those users experiencing the Access violation error, could you report the date of the ANRB.exe file, its size and send us (could be to the forum) a screen shot of the windows folder where the .exe is?

Also can you confirm this error happens alwasy with the same conditions and which conditions they are?
Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: CoastGuardJon on October 10, 2009, 11:06:48 AM: ANDev, I will have to spend some time playing to see if I can find the exe. file, size and date (I'm not a techno head!).

The Access Violation message comes after downloading and going through the installation process. Everything appears to be going correctly, and the Finish/Launch Application box appears, from this the RB start up screen runs OK and as it should do, to the point where the prompt appears (with Serial No and Password), press the Start tab, Validation etc. starts and progresses. Then everything goes belly up, a single red cross Access Violation message Script "Access Violation at the address 007D559A in module 'ANRB.exe'. Read of address 00000374" appears, press the tab on that one and a blue Windows box appears, saying more information on the system is required, then the second Access Violation messages Script "Access Violation at the address 007DA682 in module 'ANRB.exe'. Read of address 00000378" start cascading in until Windows shuts the program down.

I hope this is clear enough (I'm totally confused!!!) and what you need.

I'm off to Download 3.06 again to see if I can find this exe. file info..
Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: CoastGuardJon on October 10, 2009, 12:13:00 PM: ANDev, I've just deleted all ANRB files (incl. 2009 CD version) and references that I could find. Downloaded 3.06 full version and tried to install - exactly the same problems all over again. So deleted 3.06 and references again. Reloaded 2009 CD version - loads and runs fine, but I didn't have to re-enter my exact Long/Lat numbers - that and the Serial No., Password etc., was all available - where is this data likely to be found - could it be this 2009 CD data remnants are interfering with the 3.06 installation?

Title: Re: RELEASED - AirNav RadarBox 2009 - 3.06 Beta
Post by: EK01 on October 10, 2009, 12:35:07 PM: AirNav,
I have now installed the update to the update and when I click on the Network tab, I can now see the message regarding Live network which was not there before. However, I still have the situation of highlighting a particular aircraft on the Map in My Flights and getting no response regarding the correct aircraft picture and details from the grid. It's as if the Map is 'not talking' to the grid. Don't know if that makes any sense not being a computer buff. In order for the grid to show the correct aircraft picture, I have to highlight the aircraft details on the grid.
Another instance of this 'not talking' scenario between the map and the grid is that if I highlight an aircraft on the map which is in My flights and then go to highlight an aircraft on the map which has an asterisk next to it and therefore should appear on the Network, the grid does not automatically change from My Flights to Network details as it used to do in version 3.01. I have to click on the Network tab in order for it to change. I should add that in order to make it more difficult for yourselves to suss out the problem is that these instances are intermittant but usuually after the RB has been on for at least an hour.

Ian
Edit: An update to that, is that I now have the Network grid showing with just 98 flights which is clearly a nonsense and My Flights showing on the Map and when I click on the My Flights tab, the grid will not go back to My Flights it would appear to have frozen on the Network grid. As I say it's as if something has been missed out of the program which allows the map to 'talk' to the grid.Oh well yet another reboot !

If you're not familiar with editing the registry, then I wouldn't suggest trying it. If you really want to take the risk, then just run REGEDIT.

AFAIK, there's no evidence that registry settings are causing these problems.

I'm game for a laugh, if the worse comes to the worst, I can do another re-set of the machine, back to the factory defaults again! I assume I can't do permanent damage to the Acer pre-loaded software and partition...................?
