As George mentioned, you most likely have a duplicate afcad. MyTraffic adds it's own airport files, you simply need to remove any conflicting ones that you might have. It should be in the MyT manual.

rename BR2_OMDB.BGL to BR2_OMDB.BAK

It will be in your My Traffic scenery folder.

Hi,

when I rename the file, the GSX is not working as it reads the file is missing.

GSX should then find and use what ever airport file is in use. If it doesn't work it's because something wasn't done correctly. I would actually remove that file you renamed out of the scenery folder that it's in. Try that and restart the sim, then check GSX and select Customize airport positions. The GSX customization window will then show you what afcad it is using.

From the GSX manual :

"When parked with Parking Brakes on and Engines off, open the regular GSX menu with the normal Hotkey, a new option has been added “Customize this parking position”. Selecting the “Customize this parking position” option, will display the following dialog box. The title will indicate the parking spot position, the next line it’s the name of the Airport you are currently editing, and the 3rd line indicates which .BGL (AFCAD) file is active now"

Hi,

when I press the hotkey to use the GSX, immediately the message of the error Is appearing as the GSX can't access the airport because the file Microsoft flight simulator / My traffic / scenery / BR2OMDB.BGL is missing.

Sounds pretty odd. I'd try asking on the FSDT forums. Other than that, maybe a GSX uninstall/reinstall.

Hi,

I've done the re-installation but the issue remain the same.

There has to something incomplete in the reinstall then. A freshly installed GSX should know nothing at all about the BF2OMDB file.
Here's a fix suggested by Umberto at FSDT to rebuild your GSX airport cache, if that doesn't work then I'd go post the issue over at FSDT.
"removing the %PROGRAMDATA%\Virtuali\Couatl folder, to force-rebuild the GSX airport cache"
Of course do the above with your sim not running.
