lol 2538 pirep's to send ? no wonder vaCentral wont bother responding to you ;D

Hi Guys, Time after time I have had to reinstall the whole thing from scratch because I keep getting conflicts when updating to the latest beta version. This means manually entering all my VA's operational data e.g. Schedules, Airports, Aircraft etc. etc . Starting to get tired of doing it to tell the truth. As nearly every update houses changes to the DB, I cant seem to export the database to import it due to SQL errors re: addition tables in the last update. Is there any easy way of keeping all my data ? I noticed that REV782 has the Schedules export option which is a great idea, any chance in making an export function for all ops data ? e.g. Aircraft, Airlines, Schedules, Airports etc ? There must be a way you are all doing it, I just haven't got the brains to figure this out yet :-[ I have read the tutorial's re: updating, but I seem to loose all my information and having to start from scratch all the time. EDIT** Also, with these updates, can I install the .tpl's and other minor files to enhance what I have instead of installing the whole beta ? I am happy with the release version atm, but would like some of the functions and features of the beta versions. Sorry for all the questions. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance Adam

Will do, thanks again Adam

Thanks very much Nabeel, I also thank all of those members willing to share advice and assist in helping me with finding a solution to these issues as I seem to have a few ;D

Thanks Nabeel, will try updating to the latest BETA today, Your ongoing work and commitment is surely appreciated.

Thank you Tom, After some digging around, I have fixed the issue, Thanks again for the advice on where to look. Cheers Adam

What a shame :-[ If you find the time, I would be most appreciative. Cheers Adam

It shows up but I can't get it to work unfortunately :-[ Here is what I have; </tr> <!-- Aircraft Fuel Estimate --> <tr style="background-color: #333; color: #FFF;"> <td colspan="2">Estimated Fuel Required</td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"> <?php if($schedule->flighttime <= 1.0) { if($schedule->aircraft=='B60') { $result = 800 * ($schedule->flighttime * 100 / 60) + 200; } elseif($schedule->aircraft=='B738') { $result = 8000 * ($schedule->flighttime * 100 / 60) + 3500; } elseif($schedule->aircraft=='PA31T') { $result = 800 * ($schedule->flighttime * 100 / 60) + 200; } elseif($schedule->aircraft=='B744') { $result = 1000 * ($schedule->flighttime * 100 / 60) + 900; } } else { echo 'Estimated fuel is currently unavailable >>'; } if($schedule->flighttime > 0) { echo round ($result,-2); echo ' lbs - NOTE fuel for taxi and reserves inclusive'; } ?> </td> </tr> Can anyone see what is wrong ? I have double checked the type/names of the aircraft. Thanks in advance. Adam

Hi Guys, After fixing the other issue I had with aligning things up, I notice this now and I can't seem to fix it, no matter what I do. Would this be a CSS issue ? Any ideas ? The arrow ain't doing much I know .. lol but ALL of the left hand info is sitting right on the left border. I dont know how to creat <div>'s so I got nothing on the right side, all this content is shown vertically on the frontpage, but thats a seperat question. lol Thanks in advance for any assistance. Adam

Thanks very much for your answer, That triggered a google search as to how to center from the <td> tags, Problem now fixed. For anyone else having this problem and new to all this stuff, you may try this; <TR> <TD ALIGN = "center"> Cell1 </TD> <TD ALIGN = "center"> Cell2 </TD> </TR> Thanks again

If its not to late, do you mind if I take a look at this code too ? Do you need my email address ? Thanks Adam

Hello All, I was hoping could shed some light on why this is occurring and how I go about fixing it. Is this problem in my skin CSS ? It also happens with the Landing Stats data I have on the front page. Any assistance would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance Adam

So chrome is better than Firefox ? I have the same issue, but I don't think its related to CSS

Reinstalled v1.2.700, Im not brave enough to upgrade any more, its a shame cause I like the new features in the BETA versions :-

I deleted, then droped the sessions table, cleared cache and cookies then install/updated and still no luck. Started from scratch once again ... lol Good practice I'm getting ;D

Hi Again, Am I supposed to start a new Database ? This maybe why I keep getting issues with my login/admin panel missing ? Thanks, Adam

Hi Nabeel, In my Profile I have a link that says "View a map of all my flights", when I click on it, the Google map is centered over America when in fact ALL my flights are inside Australia. Is there a way I can center it to focus on my flights ? Thanks for you reply Adam

I too have this problem, this is the 4th time its happened in 24 hours, back to another reinstall ..... Dunno whats foing wrong, everything was fine I came back to it after an hour or so, had to login again and lost the admin section completely! is there anyway I can access the admin section ?

Hello again, I have edited the local.cfg to show Australia centered on the live map which works well, But when I go to veiw my flgihts from my profile, it shows the default location. I have looked everywhere that I can think of to change it, but all pages show that its getting its settings from the local.cfg in which I have already changed. Is there anything else that I have missed ? Thanks in advance for any assistance. Adam

Hi Again, I just started with a fresh install using the recommended full install from the downloads section, In the admin section, it shows that my version is 1.2.779. Is this correct ? or have I updated somewhere and not noticed it ? Is v1.2.700 zipped up with 1.2.799 content ?

Hi Guys, Would anyone be willing to provide there aircraft table in SQL for me to import into my database to save some time ? Or is there a place on the net that has something like this ? Types ain't too much important, but accuracy on aircraft parameters would be great. Any helpers ? Cheers Adam

Thank you Nabeel, the new description certainly makes it a lot easier, Especially the beta description. I will again start from scratch and down load and install the release version 1.2.700. So I take it that you mean the new "REV 780" is an update to the Beta installation ? Does that make the version now 1.2.780 ? Just hoping to clear things up. Thanks again for your assistance and understanding. Cheers Adam

Sorry guys, but the way the download section is setup, it makes it very hard to work out exactly what version / download I should be using. I read somewhere that its recommended to use the lastest Beta due to bug features, is this correct ? If so, do I update, or install the lastest Beta ? How come none of the .zip files have a revision reference on them ? e.g phpvms_update_rev780.zip ? I have so many zip files now I dont know which is which, and without clear knowledge on what I should be downloading is only making it more and more confusing. Such a great product, but the way things are structured in not very user friendly for the non-programming newbs who just wish to intergrate this into their VA. Cheers Adam

twice now I have tried updating to the lastest as recommended, and twice now I cant log in after updating. what the hell am I doing wrong >????????????????????? I now have to delete everything including the DB and start again using the base installation, this is really starting to suck!

Hello Sir and thanks for your reply. Like you I also have tried making a Module but to no avail, Will try what you have done. Thanks again Adam
