Problem (solved) Updating A330 to 1.0.4.2

Hi,

 

I have had a frustrating time trying to update from 1.0.2.0 (Latest file at Simmarket) to the latest stable (non experimental) release.

 

The Updater would always hang at this point... and had to be quit using task manager.

 

Downloading and unpacking Version_1030\AddonMain.zip...
Installing Version_1030\AddonMain.zip...

 

After a lot of experimenting I found that using the Global Server resolved this and the update completed. I edited the ASUpdater.cg file as follows:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<CConfiguration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <Experimental>false</Experimental>
  <Private>false</Private>
  <UseEUServer>false</UseEUServer>
  <UseWorldServer>true</UseWorldServer>
</CConfiguration>

 

And the installation completed.

Downloading and unpacking Version_1031\AddonMain.zip...
Installing Version_1031\AddonMain.zip...
Downloading and unpacking Version_1031\Aerosoft.zip...
Installing Version_1031\Aerosoft.zip...
Downloading and unpacking Version_1032\AddonMain.zip...
Installing Version_1032\AddonMain.zip...
Downloading and unpacking Version_1040\AddonMain.zip...
Installing Version_1040\AddonMain.zip...
Downloading and unpacking Version_1040\General.zip...
Installing Version_1040\General.zip...
File: F:\FlightSim\Aerosoft\Aerosoft A330 Pro V5\Data\CPDLC.ini was deleted!
Downloading and unpacking Version_1042\AddonMain.zip...
Installing Version_1042\AddonMain.zip...
1.0.4.2
Update complete!

 

POSSIBLE CONCLUSION - the Version_1030\AddonMain.zip on the EU server may be corrupt. 

 

Sharing here in case this helps others.

 

Thanks, Chris
