Please check their page, they have nice examples. If you really do not understand anything you read there, then this means that you either need some external support or you need time to start learning php/javascript etc. Good luck and God speed

Depends on your traffic, you can use free wx api services or paid ones if "free membership" or starter limits are not enough for you. As an example you can use; https://www.checkwxapi.com/ Good luck

Yeah, exactly... Your module copy is way outdated for that v7 dev version You were hit by this line, `If you try to use latest phpvms with an old version of this addon, it will fail.` and it failed Update it and all will be fine.

Your group is like mine, all old timers (some newcomers joined us but we are still an oldies group), enjoying flight sim for 20+ years... We used v2 and v5 in the past, as pilots and staff of other VA's, then decided to have our own (to really free us from everything a tight VA related), started fresh with v7. As you thought, it was not a big deal for us to manually filing pireps, then we decided to have vmsAcars (not because we are lazy, but because we wanted to support it and have some automation for our pireps at the same time). We are happy to have both (this is why I developed and shared some addons for v7) Hope you find the right answer for your group and continue enjoying sim together with your friends Safe flights

You are getting that error because; 1. Either your v7 is old (not updated to proper required version or above) but your module is new 2. Or your v7 is new (updated) but your module is old (not updated or below required minimums) 3. Or your v7 and module core is new, but your duplicated blade files are still old. (this happens when you update both but forgot fixing/updating your customized blade files) If you have access via GitHub, below link will give you the latest readme https://github.com/FatihKoz/DisposableSpecial#readme If not here is the text (same as the above with version numbers); Compatible with phpVMS v7 builds as described below; Module versions starting with v3.1.xx supports only php8 and laravel9 Minimum required phpVMS v7 version is phpVms 7.0.0-dev+220314.128480 for v3.1.xx Module version v3.0.19 is the latest version with php7.4 and laravel8 support Latest available phpVMS v7 version is phpVms 7.0.0-dev+220307.00bf18 (07.MAR.22) for v3.0.19 Minimum required phpVMS v7 version is phpVms 7.0.0-dev+220211.78fd83 (11.FEB.22) for v3.0.19 If you try to use latest version of this addon with an old version of phpvms, it will fail. If you try to use latest phpvms with an old version of this addon, it will fail. If you try to use your duplicated old blades with this version without checking and applying necessary changes, it will fail. Hope this helps

Simple explanation for both versions; v2 = Forget about it v5 = Some paid and free acars solutions, old backend with special server requirements, lots of old (and mostly not supported/updated) addons v7 = Only one paid acars (vmsAcars), no free solutions, new backend with current server requirements, less addons (only 2 or 3 as far as I know) Either way, good luck with that new va project.

https://vmshost.io/store/acars (This is where the link (at phpvms.net) should open up when clicked) Loads up fine on my end... Also vmshost.io (main page) looks fine.

Nice to read news about development projects (specially for v7)... I would prefer a native connection method and direct sim readings instead of being forced to install FsUipc. X-Plane supports custom plugins to read (and when needed write) datarefs, similarly FsX, P3D and MsFs do have SimConnect and provide native support for communication. Considering that this will be an improved software project I would prefer not relying on another 3rd party software (FsUipc or any other). Anyway, God speed and good luck, hope all goes well and as you wish. If I can find some more time, I can voluntarily be a beta tester for XP11/XP12 in future

Well, from a customer perspective you did nothing wrong But from a developer perspective you altered a code not related to visuality or end user customization, so it is not true either Everything has a design lifetime, like us, software do die in time and you need to renew them... I know lots of VA's using v5 with payware addons, invested some money in it, but it is 10 years (maybe more) old. And DEAD by technical terms, no support from original devs, no support from addon devs and most importantly it forces you to use 10 years old backend and not compatible with new software. So, long story short, isn't it the time to invest on a newer va management software to get live support and extended lifetime to your precious va instead of trying to keep it alive with cardio shocks now and then?

Laravel is the main framework v7 uses and that laravel-xxxx.log is the main log of v7 , cron-xxxxx.log holds only info about automated (cron) related events. Please read the main page, docs and forum guides, they are important. You should not ask every single thing which are basics and explained in docs/guides Have a nice night

Check your phpvms\storage\logs folder, if you see a cron log there, then it is defined well at hosting panel Also check inside one of the log files, if you see no errors in it then this means it is working fine.

No need to be sorry or to send a private message for it I just shared my thoughts. Great to hear that you managed to install v7, be sure your cron is working right. It is an important part of v7 and without a working cron (needs to configured at hosting control panel) you will have a lot of questions and problems soon Have a nice night and safe flights

Please post in English, you will get much faster support. "Solucionado, la verdad iba a comprar el modulo de Acars, pero tras dos días sin asistencia, me lo estoy pensando." "Solved, the truth was I was going to buy the Acars module, but after two days without assistance, I'm thinking about it." Why should I spend my time to translate your message to help you back And the worst part is, when there is a language barrier it is really hard to help people because you will translate my reply with google to your own language, then try to understand what I wrote or try to apply what is translated etc, which fails easily Hope you find someone speaking Spanish and help you out with v7 (and maybe vmsAcars), it will be much easier for you. Safe flights

Did you followed docs for v7 install, as far as I know it installs fine even with docker. Considering you had tried it in the past, there may be changes for docker installs. And do you have any future plans for making your updated v5 available at GitHub, so we can contribute too if needed?

By following docs, properly uploading files to your server and visiting your site of course. It is the first page you will see during install. https://docs.phpvms.net , click "installation" on the menu then click "uploading files" and continue reading as you progress.

https://docs.phpvms.net/acars/user-guide#acars-client Do you know the difference between "creating a desktop shortcut" and "copying a file to desktop" ? And when you want to report something, need help about phpvms and vmsAcars please follow the docs; https://docs.phpvms.net/help You need to give some necessary info, provide logs, screenshots etc to get help. Safe flights

Nice idea (custom bot at discord), even though v7's current api endpoints do not provide a "roster" or "users" output, one can always have it with a custom module/code. As an example you can check below links, they all work with api endpoints (json) https://www.turksim.org/roster.php https://www.thyva.com https://thyva.com/pilots.php Current v7 default api endpoints are explained here; https://docs.phpvms.net/api/apis This may help or give some ideas Safe flights

You did not miss something, there is no such feature in v7 As of date, you can "only" send messages to your discord server via webhooks. The feature you want to have needs much more than that (like direct api access, user validation, server management etc) Safe flights

You only need to upload the web module, not all of it Delete that folder completely, only upload VMSAcars folder. https://docs.phpvms.net/acars/install-server It is clearly shown and described in docs

You need to provide more details, specially if this is METAR/TAF related. phpVMS version (full version from admin panel) ? php version (full version like 8.1.14) ? Airport you are having error (ICAO code like TNCM is enough) ? Time you are having error (time and date like 02 SEP 22, 1030 UTC) ? METAR of that airport (from other sources like NOAA/ADDS) ? TAF of that airport (from other sources like NOAA/ADDS) ? Versions of your addons if you are using anything (like a theme) ? According to your logic, we all should be having problems with QNH 'cause in Europe no one publishes Altimeters like you have in US (and nearby regions). So it can not be related to Q or A in the metar text. phpVMS is capable of handling both of them and convert etc. Best wishes

Yeah that time zone thing is tricky, I can feel the pain there... But looking your exporter, honestly it would be much greater with it Maybe a master table for countries, codes and time zones... Then a lookup in spreadsheet if possible, at least when there is no info use the country time zone instead of GMT, something like that. https://github.com/nabeelio/phpvms/pull/1481 Importer update PR is in, just waits big boss (Nabeel) to check and merge. After all, your tool is nice (specially with that warnings and limitations per file) for beginners and people who have no access to official data. I still advise people to be careful though, not specific to your work but for all imports Safe flights

There are small issues in the export (and in the spreadsheet), just a typo about html tags you are using. 1. This is important; phpvms v7 needs the countries with ISO two letter codes, not with full names. Even though it is still possible to import, sending in "United States" will brake a lot of things. It should be "US" instead of "United States Of America", or "TR" instead of "Türkiye" etc. 2. This is something tiny compared to country names. <p> Altitude: .... ft <p> is wrong, it should end with a closure like "<p> Altitude: ... ft </p>" And additionally you can just skip that paragraph tag, just fill in simple text like "Altitude: .... ft" Either way, putting them in quotes like "Altitude: ...ft" will be much safer for the importer 'cause it will forcefully understand that we are sending in a string. Also I am sending in an update to let IATA codes be empty, so you do not need to add "-" for them Another question, why GMT ? I mean you already have the time zone for some of them... If possible forcing them to a same time zone looks more logical to me, I know there may be differences in countries but I do not think a country will have both Africa/Luanda and GMT at the same time It will be wrong, or it has a risk to be wrong but at least a more acceptable error in my eyes. GMT will be really different. --- Testing after core changes for no IATA code; FNCC,,Cacolo Airport,Cacolo,AO,Africa/Luanda,0,-10.110278,19.287304,0,0,0,0, Safe flights,

Do you know that phpvms v7 can lookup and add airports automatically when needed ? So, if you still want to have something, either 100 or 47k+, you are free to do so. It is a personal decision after all. But do not complain about errors and/or performance problems later, just a friendly advise. You can call it as "user feedback" if you wish so. Good luck and God speed.

Image says it all Source is https://www.iata.org/en/publications/economics/fuel-monitor/ Just a reminder; You can NOT change internal units in phpvms v7, so even if you want to have fuel units displayed in KGS this will NOT change the price you should be entering in admin area. Hope this helps

Hope to find some more time, like normal humans and continue with you on that project again... At least there will be some hope then For new VA's it is v7, no seconds thoughts on that. It is more than stable at the moment and runs well on new hardware/software, just needs some more touch and more addons to polish it I can not do every single addon/feature
