I just checked Tracker again; I'm using MP server 05, switched off from 10, and I notice none of my flights under my callsign TRENN have been tracked or are displayed, since September. I flew a Beaver in Hawaii last night, and Aerostar 700 in Central Canada Friday night, and neither of those flights are on the Tracker. And yes, multiplay is activated on my FG 2.0. Strangely enough, flights under my AVE0023 callsign HAVE been tracked . . .

Went through the logs and didn't see any of your callsigns neither any related errors. Tested all of the servers and they tracked just fine. Even used your callname and the Aerostar - did see the tracking on 01, 05 and 10. Do you see yourself on the mpmap in the first place?

Yup... I was being tracked on the MPMap.

henrikp,

As an FYI, the tracker listing does not show any names when I visit it. If I enter my callsign and hit go it will try loading forever and eventually display a listing of my flights, but nothing recent. Last flight tracked is same shown as the much faster previous site, on 8/7. (Original shows 4300 flights, new one shows 1800 flights. That may be intentional?)

Anyhow, main point is it's not tracking me currently on mpserver 04, although I have not tried others. MP is working fine.

Same here. None of my recent flights have been tracked. Last one was 9/22. I'm on mpserver05, I show up fine on the mp map.

I had problems yesterday getting myself shown shortly on the mpmap while I was testing through server 10, but it worked fine afterwards. Very strange situations.

Nvm, I hadn't read closely enough to realize the tracker is on a totally new site. So, why are half my flights missing? Furthermore, I can't make a direct link to my flight log in my sig like I could with the other site:(

All the flights under 5 minutes were removed for the sake of the database size when I took over, the only model exception was ATC. A million waypoints were deleted :)

Modified the flight listing page, callsign is now a link as well.

That makes sense.

You must have fixed something? :)
My flights show up (are displayed) this morning, although the main tracker page does not display any list. Still need to enter the name and wait for it to load. One thing to note, some of the 5 minute flights are segments of a larger flight, that for what ever reason lost contact or dropped it at a waypoint. It's not that important to me, but it would be nice to have some of the segmented tracks held together as one flight, or be able to piece them back together. I assume it's a connectivity issue, probably on my end, as flights 1839-1848 was just one flight on my end, and the 5 prior 1834-1838 were one flight as well.

Thanks,
pb

Ah, that one. The main page statistics are disabled currently due to hardware limitations :) An upgrade (better hdd+mb+cpu+more ram) sits on my shelf currently and is missing the biggest component - time :)

When you find that component, let me know. :) I could use a good helping.

It is doable, I started a todo list in the forums for keeping track and hearing from other users out there. Or should I start a new topic over here, in the official forums?

I'm not sure if this is just a problem for me, or a general problem for everyone, but I have a flight that was being tracked late yesterday that's still open (see the log for callsign "AVA0066"), and now the Tracker isn't tracking any of my flights since that time. I have tried connecting via MP server 01 (which was working great) and MP server 12 (which was working quite awhile ago, but I haven't tried it lately), but no go.

Is there a problem with the Tracker, or is this just me?

Thanks!

Regards,

Chris
