Displaying current logos, country flag and silhouette in the sqb database

[Roadrunner]

Hi Guys,

You know sometimes if you stare at a problem for a long time it sometimes resolves itself and you wonder how you overlooked the B**dy obvious.
The error message gave the answer all the time.
Column Image Key is constructed to be unique. Value 'FTL' is already present in the fn_DT_AddimagesGeneric"
A check of my OperatorFlags folder showed I had to FLT.bmp files, edentical except one had a space before the .bnp Therefore, 2 FTL lines appeared when it needed a unique single value.
Having deleted the one with the space the program loaded properly and every record with a type ICAO Code was populated.

Thanks to both of you  for all your help and the program is really great.

Hi Mike, can you provide a bit more info?  I use BMPCHK every day.

The Zip includes a User Manual.

Hi Mike, can you provide a bit more info?  I use BMPCHK every day.

I thought I would try and run BMPChk - I haven't run it for ages and when I double clicked on the BmpChk.jar file, it opened in WinRAR - wrong file association with the that extension. I proceeded to try and change that using Control panel>>Default programs>>Set your default programs>>Choose different applications by file type>> scrolled down, only to find .jar not listed. I then realised that I didn't actually have Java installed or it wasn't installed correctly. A reinstall of Java and a repeat of the above (click on the WinRAR icon (next to the .jar file extension) and pick Java from the fly out menu) allowed me to swap .jar files from WinRAR to java and now all is working as it should be.

Perhaps that's why Mile can't get BMPChk to run.

Thanks Tim.

The BMPCHK User Manual, page 2, reads: 

The program is written in Java and runs in its own window. It will run on 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows. To run the program you must have the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed on your system. Most systems with internet access will already have it installed as it's needed to run some web sites. To check if you have it installed go to the following web sites:

http://www.java.com

To download and install Java click the "Free Java Download" button. To check if you have Java click the "Do I have Java" link and follow the instructions. This program has been developed with Version 6, Version 5 should be fine, earlier versions may not work.

Hi Guys,

I thought I had loaded Java but it appears that it did not load properly. However, following Triple.7's post I have reloaded again and it is now running well.It says that in OperatorFlags I have 9 errors (all File Length mismatch 5174 5176 for file xxx and 13 warning for unusual dimensions of the .bmp file.
In BMPFlags it says I have warnings for all 432 entries due to unusual file dimensions!

I've installed the program successfully, but when I click on the grey BaseStation Db button and try to open where my BaseStation.sqb file is located (not in the default folder), I hit a snag and the program crashes. Any suggestions?

Thank you

[Anmer]

I've installed the program successfully

Are you referring to egnx's app or BMPCHK?

[Nigel]

Sorry, egnx's app

Thanks

[Anmer]

Thanks.

Do you mean this button?  And if you do, does the app crash as soon as you click it?

Hi

Yes, when I click on that button it gives me the opportunity to locate and open the BaseStation.sqb in a location other than the default one, but then when I click on Open I get the following error message:



[attachment deleted reduce file load]

Looks like this is probably a virtual store issue.

Try opening the BaseStation.sqb in your virtual store which should be somewhere in the path like this:-

C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Kinetic\BaseStation\BaseStation.sqb

Be aware that you need to most likely have hidden files and folders visible to see the whole of this location.

Hi

I've tried opening BaseStation.sqb in the virtual store as suggested but still get the same error message.

Thanks

Try putting a copy of the BaseStation.sqb into a local temporary folder, make sure you heave read/write permission to that folder & file and point the new app to that folder and see what happens.
