I have defined geometry for fuselage wing H&V tails but when I clic on Geometry => Airplane, a few error windows pops up with the message "Could not open E:\Temp\working\Wing.db", also for verttail.db and Hortail.db, the fuselage seem fine, on the 3 views I see fuselage wing and tails on the top view correcty, but only fuselage on side and front views...

Anybody had similar problems ?

I changed my temp folder location, didn't solve the problem, also the *.db files are there with data in it in the "working" directory

Check that all your i/p are filled out and the o/p is calculated in Geometry > AeroPack > Wing, Horizontal Tail, Vertical Tail.

Please post your comment here after giving that a try.

Thanks!

Thanks Max,
All the input outputs have values in them, all coordinates are "defined", I also created a dummy AAA project reproducing the problem, with very simple boxy forms, I can send it to you if you like,but also another thing, I noticed that when I close AAA,it removes all files from the working directory except for :
hortail.db
hortail.PX
verttail.db
verttail.PX
wing.db
wing.PX

so this seem to be a strange coincidence, I checked the permissions on these files when AAA is opened they are the same as all other files, of course when AAA starts up again it prompts for their deletion which I accept.

Am sorry I hope I'm not making any stupid mistakes here but it all seem straight forward, geometry defined => should plot.

Thanks for your help

Sure, you can send the file to us. We can take a look at that. You can send it to forum_admin @ darcorp.com (remove the spaces).

There is a workaround for this bug. You will need to fill all the inputs in the following modules:
Geometry > Wing > Cranked Wing (click Calculate after entering the inputs)
Geometry > Horizontal Tail > Cranked (click Calculate after entering the inputs)
Geometry > Vertical Tail > Cranked (click Calculate after entering the inputs)
