Did you checked docs about Apache vhost config ? https://docs.phpvms.net/installation/vhost#apache At least you can see the difference(s) between your config and the example, most probably your RewriteEngine is off or miss configured, thus your server is trying to open a physical directory (/install) instead of considering it as a route. Good luck

Be sure you are using php8.1 or up and be 1000% sure it is the default version, this is related to either a missing/broken php module or multi php usage problem. Switching to a different php version and cleaning all cache (including nginx if you are using it) may help too. In some cases, Apache tries to use php8.2 but nginx running on top if is set to utilize php8.1 or vice versa. Good luck. PS: Running older versions of phpVMS (like the classic series 2.x/5.x) or older beta versions of v7 does not mean that your hosting service (or server) is fully compatible with the released version

That is the main problem. Unfortunately both sources vaCentral uses are free and unofficial / public databases. Most of the time they can contain wrong data, saved by contributors, or they can come up with some sort of quick solutions themselves (like automated ICAO codes as TR-00085 etc.) I posted my concerns about the sources before but so far no solid solution was found, we will have problems from time to time. (Worst part, they do affect vmsAcars operations too, not limited to phpVMS)

They should be reported at GitHub probably (if there is an open repository for it), any reports will be lost in a blink of an eye here at forum.

If you know the timezone of the airport in question then you can edit and have a correct record. Like in many other errors (like missing ICAO, wrong IATA, old name etc.) an admin can always edit the airport records via admin interface. Good luck BTW, conversion uses Carbon interface and yes it uses the timezone value (it has to)

Do you really need an API Key or authorization for this ? Below is a plain query result without an API key. { "icao": "EGEW", "iata": "WRY", "name": "Westray Airport", "city": "Westray", "country": "GB", "region": "GB-SCT", "tz": "Europe/London", "elevation": 29, "lat": 59.3502998352, "lon": -2.9500000477 } And it will be better if you just use the "code" feature of the forum with "php" language selected. Your cleaned up, more readable code will look like this if you do so. <?php /** * Class and Function List: * Function list: * Classes list: */ /** \file vacentral.php * \brief Text getting data from Vacentral using Curl * \details This Script is used tinstead of Composer installation * \author Leslie Jarrett * \version 1.0 * \date 2025 * \copyright 2025 Leslie Jarrett */ // // GET AIRPORT INFORMATION FROM VACENTRAL // // The following URl string is required to get Airport Information // https://api.vacentral.net/api/airports/[ICAO]?apiKey=[API_KEY] // Where you replace [ICAO] with the Airport code you want to get data forr // and replace [API_KEY] with your user API Key string // Below is a worked example for the airport EGEW // Using my own API KEY which is then hidden from the code // set up your API KEY $ApiKey = 'zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz'; // set up the Airport ICAO code $AirportIcao = 'EGEW'; // set up the first part of the CURL URl $AirportApiUrl = 'https://api.vacentral.net/api/airports/'; // add in the Airport Icao Code $AirportApiUrl = $AirportApiUrl.$AirportIcao; // add in the API Key $AirportApiUrl = $AirportApiUrl.'?apiKey='.$ApiKey; // now process the call to the API using Curl // set the api curl handle $AirportApiHandle = curl_init(); // Will return the response, if false it prints the response curl_setopt($AirportApiHandle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); // Set the url curl_setopt($AirportApiHandle, CURLOPT_URL,$AirportApiUrl); // Execute the session and store the contents in $AirporApiRaw $AirporApiRaw =curl_exec($AirportApiHandle,); // Closing the session curl_close($AirportApiHandle); // unpack the Json data to PHP array $AirportData = json_decode($AirporApiRaw, true); // the array $AirportData will have the following fields // array(10) { // ["icao"] => string(4) "EGEW" // ["iata"] => string(3) "WRY" // ["name"] => string(15) "Westray Airport" // ["city"] => string(7) "Westray" // ["country"] => string(2) "GB" // ["region"] => string(6) "GB-SCT" // ["tz"] => string(13) "Europe/London" // ["elevation"] => int(29) // ["lat"]=> float(59.3502998352) // ["lon"]=> float(-2.9500000477) // } ?> Have a nice day.

Yeah if they release some changes for the API, improvements like defining avoids, either country or FIR based, those can be easily implemented in the form too. But don't expect everything to be done by phpVMS (or theme developers). Generally what phpVMS offers you a fully working API access system which is capable of two way communications with their servers. And phpVMS already passes more than enough data to that form, in which you can develop your own stuff, apply improvements, following API changes etc. easily. As an example, SimBrief API allows you to define 4 alternates with their routes, also ETOPS alternates etc. but these are not present in the form. Any VA owner or developer can enhance the form as they wish if required by following the main form logic and the API docs. This is why I ended my first post with "Good luck and God speed"

If you are talking about these, my answer will be "No, because I do not see anything there to be API access compatible". These are mostly for their own planning page (or edit flight plan page). Any API (and phpVMS) user can create lots of features internally on their end, as an example one can allow defining FPL Remarks via their code, or aircraft equipment selection (including PBN) etc. If you check the API documents (of SimBrief) and the form utilizing that API (at phpVMS) you will see how it works, and then you can develop anything you wish to have. Good luck and God speed.

Hi, As far as I know, we are using Laravel Socialite to use oAuth, and all of the options (Discord, IVAO, VATSIM) are provided by the system. I am not sure if you can alter it to work with a totally custom system, but it should be possible. Below are docs related to it; https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/socialite https://socialiteproviders.com/about/ Hope it helps a little

can VMSAcars pireps show speeds at specific events?
DisposableHero replied to ang143's topic in vmsACARS
My pleasure, glad it helped a little and gave you some direction If you need to use them for evaluation purposes, I mean like having a check for gear or flap operation speeds you have two options; 1. Custom rule (vmsAcars premium feature, still being enhanced by development) 2. Custom module (running at web, can run when a pirep gets filed and check log entries for some specific text and then compare speed/altitude, apply a penalty or write a comment etc.) Above example is for the web, to display stuff but can give you ideas about how to access the log entries. Good luck for the rest -
can VMSAcars pireps show speeds at specific events?
DisposableHero replied to ang143's topic in vmsACARS
Hi @ang143 What you want or seek is already a part of vmsAcars log entries, you can see an example below from one of my old reports. Every logged action was being reported back to your phpVMS with location, heading, altitude and speed value. And this is what it looks like nowadays with latest version of vmsAcars. Technically speaking, the values are still reported back and saved in your database, just the textual display is removed (and i think this is better because it gives us more control over the display). Depending on your needs you can still reach them via some custom work (like displaying only, evaluating etc.) As an example, by editing your pireps/show.blade.php you can have something like this. I just added some fields to show you the possibilities, location is there too. @foreach($pirep->acars_logs->sortBy('created_at') as $log) <tr> <td class="col-md-3">{{ $log->created_at->format('d.M.Y H:i') }}</td> <td>{{ $log->log }}</td> <td>{{ $log->altitude_agl.'ft agl | '.$log->altitude_msl.'ft msl' }}</td> <td>{{ $log->gs.'kt gs' }}</td> <td>{{ $log->ias.'kt ias' }}</td> </tr> @endforeach Hope this helps, safe flights. -
If you just want to add a link pointing to your WP, edit the menu/nav of your phpVMS theme then. This is just templating and basic html / stylesheet stuff. Check nav.blade.php of your theme, it will probably hold the menu items or at best it will guide you to the file holding menu items. Good luck

What are the single sign-in types supported by the program?
DisposableHero replied to Eric0173's topic in Development
We do have some oAuth providers enabled (Discord, IVAO and VATSIM) but they do not provide automated registration, only sign in and account linking options are provided. https://docs.phpvms.net/oauth/discord -
@Nabeel, I noticed some unexpected pauses in my VA logs too, from XP12 as @Potus88 mentioned. Will try to test myself during weekend (I will have some free time and public holiday afterwards)
