Plan-G v3.2.0.144 won't create FSX database

Haven't had Plan-G on my computer for a while, so I installed the latest version.  Tried creating the FSX database on the same computer where FSX is and it only reads a couple entries, creates db info for them, then quits.

I have FS9 on a second computer and the Plan-G appears to write the db there without issue.

Have attached the scenery.cfg file and the db that was created.  Added suffix of .profile since allowed file types don't include .sdf and .cfg.

BTW, if I enable the fsAeroData entries, then Plan-G does read and add those into the db, but those are the only scenery areas that Plan-G will process.

Thanks,
Ernie

I do not want to hijack this thread, but I have exactly the same error, but in P3D41.

The building process hangs again on creating airways.

Hope this fault can be sorted, as I love using Plan-G and its features.

I'l get you one in a few days.   I installed two older FSDreamTeam airports since my original message and it does appear to be working now.   

Although it now works, including the fsAerodata folders gives me inconsistent results.  In other works;  Things I expect to increase such as Airspace Boundaries, VORs, NDBs, Intersections, Airways, etc. do so, but things like Aprons and Taxiways decrease.

Perhaps that's okay.. I just want to run a few more tests.

Thanks,

I've just installed the new version (3.2.0.144) without having problems building the DB at all (I'm still using FSXA with 300+ enhanced airports and some missing - most of them I did myself).

Okay.. It looks like it might have been an issue with the scenery.cfg. 

After letting SceneryConfigEditor reset area and layer numbers and reorder the file the problem seems to have been resolved.

Will let you know if anything changes..
