Any way to get an ActiveSky historical weather snapshot uploaded without the downloader?

Thanks, I will take a look in a few hours.

You can ā€œtrickā€ the Downloader to connect by setting your date in Windows to September 29th or earlier (sounds weird but it works). Then you should be able to upload your snapshot, just donā€™t forget to reset your Windows time/date to auto afterwards.

As of 2044z The downloader is still down. I uninstalled it and redownloaded the loader from the Simbrief website, but no luck.

@SimBrief Okay thanks, but Iā€™m afraid the problem will be the same as with the downloader, we canā€™t get a connection when downloading the data. Sending works, after that data should come back and the flight plan should be displayed, but it does not. I have created an account for you with the airline , then maybe the problem can be found faster.

Thanks for posting,now I know its not just me.

Good Night having the same issue. Do you know for sure if it will be up and running tonight?

27

Has Navigraph been able to resolve the issue yet? I know I can manually do everything through the sim and the VATSIM client portal, but this was supposed to streamline the process somewhat.

same issue here and not working yet.

Update: Derek I donā€™t know what you did. For a short time it worked normally, currently not again. I give up the search on my side. The problem definitely does not seem to be on my side.

I ran the update and still not working. Showing Version 1.5.1

Hi everyone, I think Iā€™ve fixed it now. Thanks for your patience!

If anyone still has issues connecting, please let me know.

Hi Derek,

All seems to be working fineā€¦ My investigations lead me to suspect [Bug]: Let's Encrypt root CA isn't working properly Ā· Issue #31212 Ā· electron/electron Ā· GitHub this was the issue :crazy_face:

Anyway thanks for the swift update

Kind Regards

Craig

Yep thatā€™s the one! For now Iā€™ve had to move to a different SSL certificate entirely to get it back up for everyone. Iā€™ll be updating the SimBrief Downloader in the coming days with a more permanent fix.
