unhandled exception error

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello, I fly using FSX Acceleration. I recently installed traffic X. The installation was shown as successful but when running some 
applications I receive the following error message:

    “An unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your 
application. Click continue and application will ignore this error and 
attempt to continue. Object reference not set to an instance of an 
object.”

   I tried what justflight support recommends, i.e. install NET Framework 2.0. I followed recommendation and also have NET Framework 4. The problem is not solved. Has anybody experienced the same 
problem? I appreciate any response offering me some insight on how to 
fix this problem.

	Go to the Just Flight Traffic X FAQ screen (here: http://www.justflight.com/trafficX-home.asp), go the FAQS AND SUPPORT section, click on the "I get an error when loading the Traffic Control Centre / parts of the Traffic Control Centre do not function" link and follow the instructions to download and install the associated file. See if that fixes it for you.

	Thanks a lot! It worked! I am so happy you know; I purchased TrafficX in Dec last year (2010) and since, I've been doing research to fix this problem after justflight-support recommendation (NET Framework 2.0 issue) did not work. After 6 months I was almost ready to give up. Thank you so much. jamagn

	I am glad that it worked! It is interesting that Just Flight didn't direct you to that file. Especially considering it is their own file, that they made, for Traffic X, and put on their own Traffic X FAQ page. But, it doesn't matter now ... you're finally up and running! Enjoy Traffic X!

	Yes indeed I thought it was discouraging that JustFlight only directed me to their support website where FAQ are posted, advising me I could find the solution there. I concentrated on the PC-explorer “unhandled exception error” message itself rather than on the TrafficX TCC application error. I found the following JustFlight FAQ: “I get an error message when trying to load the Traffic Control Centre” [to what the solution appears to be] “Traffic X Control Centre requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.” “If you do not have the .NET Framework 2.0 on your system you will need to download it from here. Users with a 64 bit operating system (XP64, Vista) should download the 64 bit version from here”. It appeared to me that the requirement of .NET framework 2.0 was the solution to the “unhandled exception error” even though it doesn’t [specifically] mention it. The booklet (Pilot’s Notes) that comes with the CD was not much help in its recommendations under Setting-Up FSX for TrafficX; and microsoft.com has complicated solutions for unhandled exception errors, as there are many variations. As you say it doesn’t matter now because I’m up and running, but perhaps this topic will help others who ran into the same problem. I ran TrafficX (fixed) after your kind response and it was fun. Thanks again for taking the time. jamagn
