resolved error installing scenery

[anthony pawlak]

I have FSX steam, I purchased products a few years back from orbx, and thye all show up and are active on the sim. I just purchased central rockies. I did not have orbx central so i downloaded it, and all my content is there. I go to install the new purchased scenery, click install and it loads for a second, then says i need to install libraries. so i click install on that and it says " ERROR: COULD NOT DOWNLOAD AND SAVE THE MANIFEST"  All my firewall and anti virus are turned off. I manually downloaded the library but when i go to install it it says the same error. Any ideas of how to fix this?

Hi!

 

This is caused when Orbx Central is unable to make a secure connection to Google (our infrastructure provider).

 

Please try the following:

• Make sure your system time is set correctly.
  • Right click your date/time in the bottom right (on Windows), then click on "Adjust date/time"
  •  Ensure 'Set the time automatically' and 'Set the time zone automatically' are checked
  •  Under 'Synchronize your clock', click 'Sync now'
  •  Restart Orbx Central and try to install the product again
• If you have any third-party firewalls, proxies etc. that may interfere with connections to Google, try to white-list Orbx Central or disabling them.
• If those two don't work, we have an option that allows you to disable the strict security requirements to connect to Google (see below)

Could not download and save the manifest
The most common cause of this is some form of software on your computer that interferes with your network connection (such as a strict firewall or proxy server). The manifest files are served from our infrastructure provider Google, therefore anything that may be preventing a secure connection being made to Google can cause this error.

You can disable the strict network security requirements used by manifest downloading by performing the following:

• Make sure Orbx Central is not running
• Right-click on your Orbx Central shortcut and press ‘Properties’
• In the ‘Target:’ box, add strict-ssl false
• 
• Press OK
• Start Orbx Central by double-clicking on that shortcut

Note: You may need to press ‘Open File Location’ on the icon in order to find the actual shortcut.

Typing in "strict-ssl false" worked! Thanks for your help
