That's still 25.1.5. You have not upgraded to 25.2.1. Did you run the patcher or the installer? You should have run the patcher. Read the instructions again for update and follow exactly.

That fixed the display however still have a glitch in the setup.

Clicking on "Open the DC Table" produces following error. CMD window does not help much. I looked at the entry in ini file and it is blank, so I tried manually adding the path to QTVlm output file but still same error.

Try this.

1. Shut down AGL in that project.
2. Edit the .ini file and remove completely the two lines
# DC file
DCFile=....
3. Start AGL and try again. It should prompt for a file. It must be a valid DC file, either from exporting the route and .gpx, or a csv.
If you still have issues, upload a zip if the file (I want to check the encoding)

I also have the same message when trying to open the DC table.
Where can I find the ini file?

It should be called autoGribLoader.ini in your race folder. The user manual does explain how the .ini file works, what it is called, and where it is.

I advise upgrading to the latest version and seeing if it goes away. I can't replicate the problem.

Sorry Kipper but I am using 25_2_7 and I have removed the lines:
# DC file
DCFile=....
On restarting AGL, I did not get a prompt for a file.

In the Command screen I get:
java.io.FileNotFoundException:
at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.open0(Native Method)
at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.open(Unknown Source)
at java.base/java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(Unknown Source)

at autoPilot.AutoPilot.commandDriver(AutoPilot.java:3204)
at autoPilot.AutoPilot.run(AutoPilot.java:428)
at main.AGMain.main(AGMain.java:22)

I have checked correct date/time format and even named the route as route.csv from QT

Mullionman, I've managed to reproduce the issue and it's a bug. Java 25 has changed the way it tests for file existence, and the method I used for this is returning true when it should be returning false. It is fixed in the next release (coming out in a few days). The work around is close AGL and edit the .ini file and point to a valid DC import file. For example

DCFile=D:/sailonline/Races/Race_2/route.csv

Skimmer Dragonfly - India to East Africa 2026

We’ll stay at sea level, where alas the winds will be less predictable, and race them there, the whole 2400nm of the way, in Carkeek 40s.

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!
