I am currently using kAcars Free v1.0.0.9 and I had to reinstall my entire system (PC). I installed kAcars Free 1.0.0.9 and noticed the following: I can create VA Profiles in the Options | VA Profiles menu dialog. There I see two listed, Template and my own VA entry. When I chose mine I see the Base URL, Pilot ID and Password on the dialog, so far so good. The problem is if I click on the X button it exits which is understandable. However, if I click on the button that has the floppy icon "Save Edited Profile" rather than exiting the dialog and set the Main controls to the chosen profile, it simply leaves the VA dropdown to the VA I chose but clears out the Base URL, Pi…

So I have read many times this is a slow server error. While I have never had any issues at all with slowness on this server, I am willing to bite on the slow server bait. How can I fix this issue to make the script just ignore that error and continue on? We are using the Customs Kacars device on our VA. Also, I run another little VA on the side that uses the free version, can I fix that error on that module (script) as well? The person who paid for our script emailed Jeff and got no reply that I know of thus far. It's been a month or so ago. If anyone has a clue, PLEASE fill me in on what to do. Thanks in advance either way. Ray

Hello guys, I wanted to ask you a question about the phases of flight Kacars. My VA is a cargo airline and the stages of Kacars I would change some things: Ex, I would change phase Boarding with the Cargo Loading and other. Please ask if any of you could help me to make this change, thanks. Ciao , My VA : Cargoitalia Virtual

I contacted Jeffrey but thought it'd be best to post here. Does anyone know how to export own data to kACARS? Take passengers for example. There is: $load = $xml->pirep->pax; in the code but this won't set the actual value. I'm assuming the values are decided in the XML? Any ideas?

Hi there, I was just wondering if the FlightStatus variable is actually working completely in the Free version. I suspect it is not, but wanted to double-check before I go any further with what I'm trying to do which is to have kACARS tell the user that the airplane is out of service if they try and bid on a plane that is not enabled. The module is coded that if you pass the number 3 back through the XML for FlightStatus, that is supposed to represent "Out of Service", but it seems the only two messages that get passed are "Flight Found" and "Flight Not Found". Am I doing something wrong or is that the case? Cheers.

I had this problem a while back with a pilot, can't remember how it was resolved. Finally got everything installed and ready to go but when i try to record the flight with the orange arrow it says plane not on ground even though it is and the brakes are set. Do I have to have engine off too? Please help! I am using a custom kACARS. Has anyone else had this problem? He is on Windows Vista 64 bit, using FSX.

Hello All, kACARS has been working fantastically up until the last few flights. Now when someone goes to file a pirep they are given a connection error. Interestingly the pirep still files on the main site but their bid is not removed from their bid list. All other parts of kACARS work correctly. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help

I am having an issue with some kAcars PIREPs that seems to only be happening with one pilot (at the moment). The data coming through is incomplete, and not consistent. See attached. These are just two recent examples, but it's been occurring since he joined. So here's what I've done up until writing this thread: 1. Seeing as how it's only happening with one pilot, I immediately thought it to be an installation issue on his end (and it still might be). My staff and I followed up with him to understand his installation, and we don't feel he's done anything differently or erroneously from anyone else. The pilot said he's concerned with the issue as well. He assured us he ha…

Hi All, We have been running kAcars_Free V1.0.1.5 with our VA for some time now and it works as it should. However we have 1 pilot running Windows 11 that seems to have some sort of bug only on his machine and we have struggled to figure out where the issue is. Here are the synopsis of the error: When he starts up the program he clicks the Log In button and it connects to our VA normally. He has already bid on a flight in our system (BTW we are using PHPVMS 5.5.2) and then proceeds to press the Get Flight Bid Info button. When he presses the button he gets the following error per the attached screenshot. He can click OK to go p…

Set departure time to Pushback time

Hello I posted this here but it seems it's more likely to get seen in this forum. If this is considered a double post, sorry. kACARS is a really neat and user-friendly ACARS application but I have one problem with it. It records the boarding time (i.e. the time before pushback is started) as the actual departure time (labeled "Act Depart Time" in the UI). This can skew your block times making them longer - for which your Virtual Airline my penalize you. This isn't much of a problem if you only start kACARS at the time you are ready for pushback. But strictly speaking I don't think this is correct behavior since departure time is normally the time pushback begins i.e. bl…

Hello, Some of our pilots, including myself (6 in total) have been getting the following error message: unhanded exception has occurred in application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue (just brings uo same message) if you click quit, the application will close immediately. (it shuts down but then on reload gives the same message box) I have tried re-installing ACARS, .NET Framework and FSUIPC with no luck, the others have tried it also. Cheers, Thomas.

Hi! I introduced ACARS in my VA, using of course kACARS. It works well, I'm happy about it. I have a quick question, when a pilot ends his flight, the flight shows in the live map page for a very long time! Maybe they don't close kACARS properly? Do we have to close flight sim before kACARS? Thanks!

I am a bit confused. In my VA I am using currently the 1.0.0.9 version. However, when I visit the FS Products website it says the latest kAcars Free version is 1.0.1.6 thus newer than mine. However, when I chose the Download link of the FS Products site it brings me to the download page of phpVMS and there it downloads version 1.0.1.1 instead. So, which one is really the last version?

As do a few airlines, we use alphanumeric callsigns on our flights. This is an extra column in the schedules. What I need to do is let kACARS incorporate this. I can already get phpVMS to output the callsign to kACARS so that it is displayed in the flight number box but it does not show on the ACARS map, or in PIREPs. Doing it in my head gets quite complicated as all I'm trying to do is replace the flight number with the callsign throughout the code, but still using the flight number variable. Has anyone else done this or know how?

Hello I've had already a few times that the fuel consumption posted by kacars was incorrect. I think I've got it narrowed down to that you have to set your fuel *before* hitting start flight, but not sure. Today one of my pilots logged this, however: [16:22] Aircraft Title - Boeing 737-400 [16:22] Aircraft Model - B734 [16:22] Flight Number EUR2040 [16:22] Departure LFML [16:22] Destination EDDM [16:22] Boarding [16:25] Pushing Back [16:25] Taxiing to Runway [16:30] Taking Off [16:30] Taking Off [16:30] 177kts [16:30] pitch angle 5 degrees [16:30] 5700 (lbs) of fuel onboard [16:31] Climbing [16:49] TOC Reached [16:49] Cruise 31000 [17:05] Stall [17:05]…
