Error building database

[JJJackson]

When trying to build a database for P3D v4 I get this error message. What am I doing wrong?

Read the log file but did not understand what was wrong.

Hmm, not sure what's going on there. There's a massive chain of errors in that log, the displayed message is just the last of them.

The first things to check:
* Reboot your PC. You made several attempts to build the database, and it's possible that things didn't get cleaned up properly between tries.
* Are you running in Administrator mode? If not, maybe it's a permissions issue, so try running Plan-G As Administrator (btw, if you run Plan-G as Administrator, you also need to run P3D as Administrator, or they will not connect to each other)
* Is P3D running when you attempt the database build? If so, shut it down first.
* Something may be preventing Plan-G from deleting & recreating the data file correctly. Before running Plan-G, manually delete My Documents\Plan-G Files\Data\Plan_G3_P3D.sdf

If the database still doesn't build, there are some addons that report errors:
Aerosoft\ Cologne-Bonn Professional
Aerosoft\ PortoSantoXEvolution
ORBX\FTX_NA\FTX_AA_KVUO
ORBX\FTX_NA\FTX_AA_KGPI

I don't think they would make a difference, but you could try temporarily disabling those sceneries before building the database.

Spotted the problem: You're using OneDrive. The database must be stored on a local drive - it simply won't work from cloud storage. You can change the Plan-G Files location from Options/Locations.

Thanks Tim

Found that out after a while.
