Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Paparazzi in a virtual machine, Flightgear on the host.

[Ørjan Pettersen]

Yes. I have tested with a simple client ans server program, where i run 
the client on the virtual machine and the server on the host. And I was 
able to send data back and forth without any problem. So I assume that 
the ip is correct. Have tested with both the external host ip and the 
host ip in the virtual machine. Without luck.

Another ting is that I do not get a 'Error fg: Connection 
refused(send))' in the log window in Paparazzi center. I do however get 
it if i fail to start Flightgear before i run the simulator. And if I 
close Flightgear during simulation. So it seems like the connection 
between FG and Paparazzi is up and running. But the plane in FG do not 
move. Did also test with the TJ1 plane. No difference.

Is there anything I need to do in FG except running the command? FG 
starts with the Cessna C172P plane.

Oerjan...
