Could you please verify whether the current_wx_snapshot.txt in the given path is really updated? So the question is whether the file will really be updated. It will also be read after the weather provider has been changed (what you already did and reported). Weather data from file will only read after the file has been altered. Hello ? (please observer the forum rules)ĭid you verify that the Active Sky weather file is properly set for the corresponding simulator type? Thank you!!Īfter two metar changes, the old metar is still there.and the only way to get it to change out to match the new ActiveSky XP info is to shut the server down and restart it.
#Active sky xp manual update#
Will update in an hour (when the metar updates). So far the weather has updated after I changed the default location. I am in the process of testing if changing the setting in ASXP called "Common Data Export Path" to be a custom path, instead of the default location for ASXP (which placed it in my User/App data folder.

If I switch to real weather, updating the weather on client side is working so far.Īnyone else with this problem? Any suggestions? Seems there is no recurring, automated task for reading ActiveSky's weathersnapshot on the serverside. If I only hit refresh on the client at "global settings - Weather", the client receives the raw data from the server but the server doesn't update it's own weatherdata with ActiveSky's snapshot, even after hours of running the server. Server - restart (Log shows "File base weather broadcasted")Ĭlient - change weather provider, apply and switch back to Active Sky (Server log: File = current_wx_snapshot.txt / Weather (ActiveSKy) started / File base weather broadcasted) On the client AND server side, there is no update of the weatherdata until I do one of the following:

I've an issue with updating the weather with the Active Sky current_wx_snapshot.txt and using EFB 2.1 build #106 using X-Plane 11.30+, EFB client running as network install or local on serverside.
