DEVELOPMENT ISSUE #6,049 - Trouble installing fleet aircraft.
Reported by David Sybiak (DVA1788) on 05/03/2024 11:44 ET
Assigned To Luke Kolin (DVA043)
Issue Status Open
Issue Priority High
Airlines Delta Virtual Airlines
Security Public
Area Fleet Library
Issue Type Bug
Issue Description When trying to install fleet aircraft there are multiple errors about not finding mirror servers and being unable to resolve hostnames when trying to download sound files, extra gauges, and manuals. I have attached an example shot from the EMB-120, but this has happened on multiple aircraft for me, B737, A320, 737NG. I'm trying to install the planes into FSX:Steam if that makes a difference.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist, I'd be happy to retest. I have used the fleet planes for years and never had an issue.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

-Dave

I am unable to duplicate. This looks like a transient DNS error on your end. Is it still occurring?

Thanks for checking Luke, I’ll try it again and let you know.

Hello Luke, I tried testing yesterday. It's still giving me the same error, I tried uninstalling A/V, flushing DNS cache, multiple reboots, disabling IPv6, and 3 different DNS servers. Not sure what the issue cold be at this point. I would have to think that it is something isolated to my setup somewhere, as there would be more reports from other pilots on this issue.

Can you ping dl.deltava.org?
David Sybiak (DVA1788)

Yes, just tried with no issues... 0% loss, avg response 85ms.

... and you're still getting an "unable to resolve host name" error?
David Sybiak (DVA1788)

Yeah, I just tried installing the EMB-120 after the ping was successful and got the same error. I'll attach the sequence of errors I get...

Errors in the order they happen.

I'll need to rebuild all of the Installers, the HTTP component is based on IE which is likely breaking here.

This requires NSCurl. Queued for latest intallers.

I've managed to get NSCurl working with the ACARS installer. Which installer should I update for you to test?

Hi Luke, if you could try the EMB-120 one that would be great. Thanks for working on this, I appreciate it.

The EMb-120 has been updated. Please try it.

Everything went well except when it tried to download the manual (see attached).

Timeout parameter changed from seconds to milliseconds by default. Fixed. What other installers do you want me to update?

Thanks Luke, if you could do the 737, and the A319/320's that would be awesome!
