  • Phoenix updates not working

    Hi.

    I have downloaded 5 updates today, the 2 new sites, and 3 new aircraft.

    The Fiesler Storch, the Funtana, and the BMI Swiss Lama heli.

    I have also downloaded the 2 Sites Freedom Park and the Oldesloe Aero club.

    I have installed them all using the Phoenix update method
    Phoenix tells me they are all installed. But noen of them appear anywhere in the program, apart from in updates.

    Anyone any ideas.

      Hi Ade.

      Just tried that, the update page still shows me they are installed.
      I have tried installing them again, and get the message installed succesfully but they are not there.

      Looking at one of the update files in wordpad, I can see that there should be a directory structure that should have been created containing the new files, but that has not been created.

      My version does show 1.03c.

        Where does the program store its information about which updates have been installed.

        In the registry somewhere ?.

        Perhaps some one could mail me a zip of the required directory structure.

        thanks

        edit.

        I have found where the record of updates is stored.
        in c:\program files\phoenixrc\settings\installedupdates.log.

        deleting this file allows me to try re-installing updates, but still they do not appear, and no new files have actually been installed.

        Weird, it is as though the source files are missing.

          OK.

          I have now got these updates installed.

          If anyone else has this problem, I solved it by moving the update files to
          the default installed location for phoenix. c:\program files\phoenixrc.

          Installing directly from there seemed to work.

          I kept all my updates in c:\phoenixupdates.

          That'll teach me for trying to be organised
