### This app requires accurate timestamps
The app requires that your clock is accurate to within a minute or two. The easiest way to do this is to check “Set time automatically” and maybe “Set time zone automatically” in your system's Date & Time settings.
### Shipyard data not reported
The Frontier server that supplies the data to this app sometimes fails to supply shipyard data. Visit the shipyard in-game and try “Updating” again.
This problem is tracked as [Issue #86](https://github.com/Marginal/EDMarketConnector/issues/86).
### Doesn't auto-update and/or persistently gives “Server is lagging” error
This app uses Elite: Dangerous' log files to track the systems and stations that you visit. If you're running this app on a different machine from the Elite: Dangerous game, or if you find that this app isn't automatically tracking the systems that you visit and/or isn't automatically “updating” on docking (if you have that option selected), then adjust the “E:D journal file location” setting on the Configuration tab to point to the game's log files.

- The last time you ran Elite: Dangerous you didn't enter the game. You will be able to edit these values once you've entered the game.
- Your “E:D journal file location” setting is incorrect. See [above](#doesnt-auto-update-or-track-systems-visited).
