I'm running MW 1.12 on Debian Lenny and I installed the Maps 0.5.5 extension. It works, however I get this message for random points when I refresh. The list of points that aren't geocoded change with each refresh. "The following addresses could not be geocoded and have been omitted from the map" When the 0.6 version of Maps came out (yesterday) I installed it and, immediately I get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined method Parser::getOutput() in /var/lib/mediawiki/extensions/Maps/Services/GoogleMaps/Maps_GoogleMaps.php on line 217 Any thoughts? -Chris

Hey, I suggest you upgrade your MW to the latest release. Maps is build for 1.15 and 1.16. Cheers -- Jeroen De Dauw * http://blog.bn2vs.com * http://wiki.bn2vs.com Don't panic.

Ok, I took your advice and upgraded to Mediawiki 1.15.3. I still have the same problem. -Chris On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 10:36 AM, Jeroen De Dauw <jeroendedauw(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Which of them, "Call to undefined method Parser::getOutput()" or "The following addresses ..."? -- Best regards, Max Semenik ([[User:MaxSem]])

Using 0.5.5 I still get the "The following addresses could not be geocoded and have been omitted from the map". I'm using the format: {{#display_points: Address ~Title ~Description ; Address ~Title ~Description ; |width=800|height=600|zoom=4|center=41,-91|types=normal|controls=large }} Using 0.6, I get "Warning: You need to have Validator installed in order to use Maps. However, I have Validator installed. -Chris On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 1:21 PM, Max Semenik <maxsem.wiki(a)gmail.com> wrote:

The only reason I'm using the maps extension is for the geocoding. Is geocoding working with the Google Maps extension? -Chris On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 2:01 PM, Chris Thomas <sruchris(a)gmail.com> wrote:

You can simply disable the non-geocoding features. See the docs [0] or look in the Maps settings file. The Google Maps extension does not have a separate geocoding parser function as far as I'm aware. If you get a warning saying you don't have Validator installed, you do not have it installed (correctly). Maps 0.6 requires Validator 0.3. See the download [1] and installation [2] docs.

Thanks, however I've followed those directions to a T. Now with v0.6, I'm getting no points appearing along with these errors: <validator_error_parameters> <validator_list_error_invalid_argument> -Chris On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 3:29 PM, Jeroen De Dauw <jeroendedauw(a)gmail.com> wrote:

There indeed appears to be an issue on 1.15. I will investigate this, and if it is really there, will release an update to fix this very soon.

Thanks. In the mean time, v0.5.5 seems to be working ok for me now. The process installing, removing and reinstalling Vavlidator and Maps somehow seemed to fixed it. One more question: How can I enlarge the description box for each item using Maps? I have long descriptions that run outside the white box. -Chris On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 4:19 PM, Jeroen De Dauw <jeroendedauw(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Assuming you use Google Maps, the boxes should show a vertical scrollbar when there is to much content to fit. This has been slightly tweaked in 0.6, but should still work in 0.5.5. -- Jeroen De Dauw * http://blog.bn2vs.com * http://wiki.bn2vs.com Don't panic.

The error should say the address could not be geocoded. A further issue is that the geonames parameter and default geoservice for googlemaps are not working, and Maps is using geonames for everything. You can set this in localsettings to work with the Google service, which does not fail at several addresses where geonames does. $egMapsDefaultGeoService = 'google'; -- Jeroen De Dauw * http://blog.bn2vs.com * http://wiki.bn2vs.com Don't panic.
