Running Windows 10 Mission Planner and getting a “failed to connect to SITL instance.” It was working fine a few hours ago. Anyone run into something similar and have a fix? Thanks
Hi Shane I am experiencing the same issue. It was working fine two hours before and now it says failed to connect to SITL instance.
@Michael_Oborne : Need your help
more info.
what sitl? copter/plane/rover
Tried clicking on Copter, Plane and Rover but all throws "Failed to connect to SITL instance " errror after showing “downloading SITL software” window
Yep. Same for me as Jawad.
I’m still having issues. Can someone on the forum confirm that SITL is working for them? That way I know at least these issues are mine and not the firmware?
Not working for me
its working for me again now
Thank you…
Installed windows 10 in Virtual box and tried simulation there… works perfect
Fresh win10 and win7 - sitl doesn’t start anymore.
I run Simulation in MP. After downloading process I can see sitl window opens and immediately closes. MP reports Failed to connect to SITL instance, after that.
It always worked before.
Latest MP.
I just had a quick test, is working for me, MP latest beta (altogether it shouldn’t matter, the bug was in AP not MP).
No luck for me.
Do you use windows?
How can I start sitl manually? To see the error.
Yep, Windows 10.
Try deleting your Documents/Mission Planner/sitl
folder
Deleting didn’t help.
I’ve started sitl manually.
It didn’t get connected

Same problem Quad>multicopter, downloads then fails to connect. Tried deleting the SITL folder that made no difference. I’m using Win7 - even checked to see if it was fired walled out.
Same for me. Windows 10, quad Multirotor. Also plane and rover fails. Latest Mission Planner 1.3.73. Worked about a week ago, now failed to connect.
In the past, it was a problem with the server, that usually was fixed after a short time but now it seems to last since 4 days already
Mine was working great last week. Windows 10, latest version… Why would it suddenly stop working?
I checked the link, but I’m not a programmer by any stretch of the imagination so I am absolutely clueless as to what is going on there. Is it a setting or some sort of Linux command?
