CCFTracker Login Error

Hi,

I have been trying to get CCFTracker set up with my VA (crew.tcxvirtual.com). I have downloaded and installed the module to /core/modules, but when I login using my pilot ID and password, I get this error: https://ibb.co/rbx8L2W

For those of you incapable of following links, it says “Login error: the connection to the VA site has timed out!”

How can I fix this?

From the software author’s forum:
“” This message is triggered only when a connection to the VA site could not be established. Check again if the URL is correct, there are no white spaces before or after the URL and the URL includes http: // like “http://www.myva.com

Furthermore, if different language versions are available on your site, for example let’s say that phpvms is on “http://www.myva.com/en”, you must enter it “”

I tried a little while ago the software installation and it works perfectly: I created a folder on the “c” disk of the computer and I installed them the program. Before starting the program, I right-clicked on the executable file and set it to “run as administrator”.
Started the program, logged in, everything ok

Checked, double-checked and triple checked the URL. No language options on my site.

I only reported what the programmer of the CCFTracker software wrote on his forum.

The only thing that comes to my mind is to check your url where phpvms is installed.
It works for me, I don’t know what to say about it

Hmmmm. cACARS doesn’t work either if that helps.

What directory is your domain pointed to?

In relation to that directory, where is phpVMS installed?

What directory? Please explain

Several things may be going on here, First CCFTracker example should look like this for a “URL” you MUST point the url with an ending backslash, 

http://mydomain.com/

The backslash is vital, if your using a sub-directory, then just add the additional sub-directory/folder to the end of it. You also MUST have the correct Module versions for both CCFTracker and cACARS that matches the Client Software , this is a must on both ends, or you will get that error message. cACARS has 2 different versions, and so does CCFTracker. Myself  I have stuck with the older versions of both. cACARS can also run multiple instances of the Client software by just creating a new folder, and then in the new folder , point the file with the extension “XML” to the password and the url. I have 7 cACARS systems running for different sites at once. It almost sounds like that you are running in the Modules a different version then what the Client is, hope this helps.

Your domain name (tcxvirtual.com) is pointed to a directory/folder. What directory/folder is that? For example… /tcxvirtual

And where is phpVMS installed in relation to that? For example … /tcxvirtual/phpvms - or maybe you installed phpVMS diredtly into that directory/folder… for example /tcxvirtual/<all phpVMS files here>

Domain name is tcxvirtual.com. PHPVMS is installed on the subdomain crew.tcxvirtual.com. In my directory, I have a folder called tcxvirtual.com and crew.tcxvirtual.com. PHPVMS is installed directly into crew.tcxvirtual.com.

I will have a look at versions, but as far as I’m aware there were only two files available on the crazycreatives website: the module and the software. I don’t believe it is possible to download different versions.

Let me know how you make out with that, I have all of the versions and will be more then happy to give you them w/documentation also. Poke me private anytime.

Try http://www.tcxvirtual.com/crew.tcxvirtual.com

It gets way confusing when you name your directories/folders using your domain and/or subdomain names

What is directly under the public_html - both /tcxvirtual.com and /crew.tcxvirtual.com folders?

In what folder is your skin installed? Actually, list the full path to your skin folder…

OK, so. My hosting only allows me to go as far back as “home”. That is where I have my .htaccess file. I have two folders in there - tcxvirtual.com which contains my front-end site, and crew.tcxvirtual.com. My PHPVMS install is directly under /crew.tcxvirtual.com - so in there is /admin, /core,  /lib and the relevant files. My skins are installed in crew.tcxvirtual.com/lib/skins/ [iCrew LITE etc]

Is this still the free hosting or paid?

Under /home, is there a /public_html?

This is free hosting… So far though I’ve had absolutely no issues with it - from installation up to now. its infinityfree.net. When I said Home I didn’t mean a directory, it is just represented by a little Home icon in the file manager.

Is there a public_html directory there?

Negative. That is where my crew.tcxvirtual.com folder is.
