Simmconnect Client SP2 Not Found
Hello folks,
I really need some help out here. I am having a problem with the ASA network hookup. I believe I have connected all the necessary files to the client and the server.
1) On the client, I am running windows 7 and in the my documents folder I have the file fsx.cfg file modified with the same address, port as the server.
2) Also I have loaded SP1A and SP2 SDK files on the server (am I also supposed to load the SK1A and the SP2 SCK files on the client also)?
3) As well I have loaded the FSX SP1 and SP2 updates on the server.
4) I have loaded the updated service pool files several times and still I get the same error on the client.
5) The error reads: Simm Connect Client SP2 not found
6) I have also modified the XML files found in the SDK files that I loaded from my deluxe CD1 installation disk.
Attached is a copy of what I have loaded in the XML File that I changed and put in its appropriate folder on the server in the application data folder. And I also put the correct sim connect ini file in the my documents folder on the server

7) I went to the SDK file and made a copy of the sim connect CFG file and I modified it and I put the appropriate protocol of: =ipv4 and the address =: 192.168.2.5 port =500
[SimConnect]
Protocol=Auto
Address=
Port=
MaxReceiveSize=
DisableNagle=
[SimConnect.1]
Protocol=Pipe
Address=.
[SimConnect.2]
Protocol=Ipv6
Address=::1
[SimConnect.3]
Protocol=Ipv4

Port=500

[SimConnect.4]
Protocol=Pipe

Port=
[SimConnect.5]
Protocol=IPv6

[SimConnect.6]

7) I made a copy of the CFG file and put it on the client machine and put it in the folders username documents on my Windows 7 machine.
I have done this several times dump and load and I continue to get the same error.
I have all the appropriate drives mapped because I have radar contact and flight simm commander running flawlessly. For some reason I continue to get this error. Can you see from these examples what I am doing wrong and what is the fix for it?
Additionally when I load ASA on the client machine for the first time, it will ask for the appropriate FSX folder and I will respond then it will give me the sim connect error.
I have also run the sim connect.msi file on the client also after I have gotten permission from the administrator and still the error pops up.
When I load ASA on the client for the first time I will hit ok and will go ahead and load with the full screen set up. Now I can’t get into the full screen mode it will only give me the small screen set up. I
Thanks………….Robert
