Hi Tim/Whisper202

I have found a solution to the problem, Plan – G now connects to FS9 without a problem.

I run both FS9 and FSX with "Run as Administrator" I just had an idea that Vista was up to it's usual tricks and was being over protective... So I set up my flight in FS9 as usual then started Plan –G by right clicking and the selecting "Run as Administrator".

Bingo, Plan – G now works with FS9 and I am 1 happy chappy, this might not be the best solution but it works, I hope it sorts out your connection Whisper202, thank you Tim for your prompt reply's and what looks to be a superb programme for the flight sim community.

Hi Tim,

I joined your forum today and downloaded Plan – G, I installed and ran the data base for FSX, opened up FSX set a flight and the hit the connect button, connected no problem.

I then shutdown FSX and attempted to run the data base for FS9 as this was grey, after reading the forum I found the answer, I just needed to point the programme at my FS9 installation with the options tab, this was done and the data base was created.

I then started FS9 and set the flight and attempted to connect Plan- G but I got the error message "is FS9 running, have you got FSUIPC?" well something like that, after several attempts to connect switching between Auto and FSUIPC to connect I then restarted my FS9 and Plan –G to make more fresh attempts to connect, at that point I posted on the forum.

Thank you for your prompt reply

Hi,

sorry to hijack this post, I am having the same problem as Whisper202...

I have looked at the Plan-G log, at the bottom it says...

22:17:34 FSUIPC.Connect
22:17:34 Error opening FSUIPC: FSUIPC.FSUIPCException: FSUIPC Error #1: FSUIPC_ERR_OPEN. The connection to FSUIPC is already open.
   at FSUIPC.FSUIPCConnection.Open(FlightSim RequiredFlightSimVersion)
   at FSUIPC.FSUIPCConnection.Open()
   at FS.FSUIPC.Connect()

I have connected with auto and am running Vista Home, I would like to add that it connects no problem with FSX on the same PC, this looks a fantastic programme and I hope you are able to help us connect to FS9.

Thank you in advance,

Flyguy  :)
