I haven't felt the need to upgrade from 3.4, uploading directly to OLC seems to work great. Dan Rihn |

Dan Rihn- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - You should always use the latest version of your software. As problems are discovered, the vendors make updates, and there is no sense having problems that are already solved. SeeYou is also testing a beta version to deal with a strange data transmission issue with the new OLC interface where "+" signs get corrupted in transmission, causing validation to fail. This affects C302+ users, but could also randomly affect anyone if there is a "+" sign in the digital signature. If your software fails to work, please try direct claim as an alternate. As noted above in this thread, it is very easy now in OLC 2.0. You should get an email receipt for your claim with your score when the server finishes procesing your claim. To receive this email, make sure your email address is correct in your OLC registration, and "white list" onlinecontest.org if you are using a spam blocker. The email will have a link to your claim record--be sure to send this when you request support since it lets us find your claim immediately. You can reply to the email, or forward it to your national OLC administrator for help. The national admin also gets a copy of notification emails for claims that do not score to alert them to any problems. Finally, for those of us in the western hemishpere, we have to be a little patient. The developers are in Europe, and are usually sleeping when we are claiming. So if the OLC server has a problem during the night, we usually have to wait until morning for them to fix it. The OLC is an all volunteer orginization, and it is not possible to pay "night operators" to stand by for problems. So if your claim does not go through right away, go to bed, and check your email in the morning. Doug Haluza SSA-OLC Admin |

As noted above in this thread, it is very easy now in OLC 2.0. Does that work for CAI files? If so, what is the procedure to be used when posting such a file? Save as IGC file in SeeYou, then direct post that? Or just direct post the CAI file? Or something else? |

I tried to make my first OLC claim on Sunday and Monday for my 3/17/07
flight and I must say it's been a hassle. My claim was declared "validation not successful". I used a GPS-NAV 20. On Sunday, I converted the .cai file to .igc using AeroExplorer. I then prepared the claim in SeeYou. I went to the OLC site and tried to upload by "Prepared Claim". File was not uploaded. I then tried to upload the claim through SeeYou. No upload. On Monday, I tried the OLC site "Direct Claim" method and the .igc file uploaded ok but it was invalid. I then converted the .cai file to .igc using the Cambridge DOS program. Deleted the previously uploaded file and uploaded the new .igc file again using "Direct Claim". Still invalid. The .cai file passed vali-cam.exe with no problem. I emailed support by replying to the email I received from the OLC Result Notifier but have not yet heard anything.

I was uploading files for several people this weekend. The igc files were
from a Volkslogger. I was unsuccessful in submitting the claim directly thru SeeYou v3.7. I was successful in having SeeYou prepare the claim file and then uploading it. The first time I tried a couple of them, I got some long error list screen. I waited a short while and was able to upload exactly the same file successfully. John Scott |
