Oh nice to hear that someone is working on this:) can you please share when you´re done?:-) Thx Niklas

I have been searching the forum but cannot find anything, so im posting a new thread, if something like this exists please just point me in the direction of that thread:) My "problem" is that now when i push my pilot brief for my booked flight I get about four pages, one page with info in REALLY small text, and 3 pages with weather charts that are really small... Is there any "addon" that changes the layout of the pilot brief? what i want is more focus on the route. Any ideas? /Niklas (Oh nooo! I posted this in the wrong part of the forum, can a moderator please move it?)

Hi! I did a few flights using phpVMS and Xacars today... I have my flights sheduled in phpvms together with the routes. But when I flew quite a few routes today, i noticed that xacars seems to report wrong routes... XAcars seems to have the correct routes when i start. But when i check my pireps in phpvms wrong route is reported... Anyone that has enountered this problem?? /Niklas

Thanks a lot!=D another question, will the pilot be transfered to another airport as soon as a flight has been completed or will the pilot have to transfer himself to the new airport before the new flight begins?

Hi! This looks really interesting! But I need some help... Is there any way I can add this to my pilot center page? So i dont have to remember the link? hope that somebody can help me with this one:) thanks a million!

This is a bit embarresing;-) i found the problem... i read that "dont forget to add the airline code" when adding a scheduled flight... So each route i named for example ABC124 And tried to enter that into xAcars... the problem was that i was supposed to ADD the company letters in front when writing in xAcars;-) when i did that it worked. at least it tracked my plane during takeoff... i had to shut down fs so i couldnt test untill i landed... SO the last question remains... When i have landet, do i just press "stop Acars" and then the information is provided to phpVMS automatically? or do i have to do something else?:-) Thanks for your help this far!

when i check my xacars.txt it updates after each try to connect. I cleared it and tried to connect and here´s the content if it helps anyone to help me:-) Fri Sep 30 18:34:49 2011: Message: [starting loadOptions.] Fri Sep 30 18:34:49 2011: Message: [iniparser for [xacars.ini] opened.] Fri Sep 30 18:34:49 2011: Message: [Reading options.] Fri Sep 30 18:34:49 2011: Message: [Options read successfully.

I have tried both this: http://192.168.0.13/virtual/action.php/acars/xacars/acars and http://localhost/virtual/action.php/acars/xacars/acars and still no luck...

The settings that phpVMS has entered for me is: Acars server: http://localhost/virtual/action.php/acars/xacars/acars Pirep server: http://localhost/virtual/action.php/acars/xacars/pirep Flight info server: http://localhost/virtual/action.php/acars/xacars/data This seems strange... the paths points to the action.php file and then subfolders to that file?! this cant be right or can it? I am using xampp on my local network so noone outside my local network can access it so i cant paste the url, sorry... but phpVMS is installed in the virtual folder. And it works to add airplanes, pilots and so on... Thanks for your help /Niklas

Thanks, now the settings seems a bit more accurate but when i enter the flight number that i entered when i created the schedule (the flight number is: DY2111. but when i enter DY2111 in xAcars and press get Acars flight data it says that it cant find the flight. What am i doing wrong?

Hi! I have now a working phpVms thanks to your help:-) Can anyone help me setting up xAcars? i have installed xAcars but i am wondering what settings i need to do in xAcars to connect it to phpVMS... A quick guide anyone?;-) Thanks a lot!

You are great!!!! Thanks for your help! that worked perfectly! now things are comming together;)

Hi! I wonder if its possible to run phpvms over a local network using xampp(i understand you cant give me support on this program but ill try) My wishes is to have the server running on a computer connected to my network, but separated from me flight sim computer. This computer wont have anything on it so the security doesnt need to be of concern:-p Now i can access the login page of phpvms when i enter the local ip of the computer that has the server running... but when i log in it seems to try to redirect me to "localhost/blablalba" which causes errors i suppose?... is there a way to fix this or do i have to have this on my fscomputer? Best wishes and thanks for the help on beforehand /Niklas Eriksson
