SiEiNo Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Open Street Map mod, not install is the error message (after a time working quite well)? What ?? ENo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tngrlkrz Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 No one will be able to help you without a bit more information. Need TNG version, Open Street mod version, expanded mod manager section for the 'not install' mod so specific error identified. Suddenly stopped working without any changes or installs / uninstalls of other mods? Details needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 ENo, If the Mod Manager shows a Not Installed status, what changes did you make recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiEiNo Posted June 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 TNG 12.3 OSM 12.3.0.6a My mod 'Show siblings' repeated the siblinglist three times in every family, and after the search for the error causing that I became aware of the OSM not installing. I don't know doing anything having effect on OSM. I had a look on the file 'getperson.php', but didn't change any parts. I attach some pictures from Mod Manager: ENo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel KIRSCH Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 It's clear : the file heatmap_OSM.php is not in the directory openstreetmap.6 ... For the rest : the siblingslist repeated 3 times = 2 bad uninstall of the mod. Uninstall the mod, look where it must install, edit the files, search to find traces of the mod and delete them Then reinstall the mod.

Michel KIRSCH Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 Copy this file into your directory openstreetmap.6 Then install the mod Michel heatmap_OSM.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tngrlkrz Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 Situations like this, with left over mod stuff resulting in a 'dirty' getperson.php file, I uninstall ALL mods, then copy in fresh copy of getperson.php (and any other target files with errors) from the TNG distribution files, then reinstall mods one at a time. Usually works for me.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 I use a similar approach where I replace the module that has an issue, like getperson.php in this case, with the distributed file and then using the Mod Manager Status pull down option and select Partially Installed and Clean Up the mods that are partially installed.

Michel KIRSCH Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 For testing purposes, I often install and uninstall Mods. I don't know why, but it can happen that an uninstall goes wrong and bits of code remain in some files. Usually, this is code coming from a mod and remaining in one file only... I really don't know why... Ron and Ken, your approach is the best. Mine is the faster... when knowing what we do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel, If you also are modifying files manually, the Mod Manager might not find the code that was installed because the white space (blanks, tabs, etc.) are no longer the same as what is in the mod .cfg file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel KIRSCH Posted June 19, 2020 Report Share Posted June 19, 2020 I know, Ken. But that can't explain why code stay in a file in certain situation. when it happens again, I'll let you know, so we can discuss it Michel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiEiNo Posted June 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Many thanks trying to help me with my Open Street Map, which cannot installed says the mod manager. I've tried all your hints, but no solution! First I put the missing heatmap_OSM.php file in the actual directory, but no help. At last I've reinstalled the whole TNG 12.3, but the Open Street Map Mod is not wanted. What am I doing wrong, I wonder? Thanks, ENo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 ENo, A Mod Manager Cannot Install status does not tell us what is wrong. When you expand the Status column, it should have some sort of error message, like Bad Target, Missing Source or something like that. When you extract the OpenStreetMap mod that you downloaded, did you put both the mod .cfg file and the extracted OpenStreetMap.6 folder as a folder (or directory) with all its contents in your TNG mods folder? 1 hour ago, SiEiNo said: First I put the missing heatmap_OSM.php file in the actual directory, but no help. What directory did you put this heatmap_OSM.php file in? The module is already contained in the OpenStreetMap.6 folder or directory that is part of the OpenStreetMap v12.3.0.6a.zip that you have been downloading. The directory (or folder) must be copied as a folder or directory to your mods folder where it becomes a subfolder or sub directory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiEiNo Posted June 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Ken, Extracting the downloaded zip-file gave a file OpenStreetMap v12.3.0.6a.cfg and a directory OpenSreetMap 6. Both were put in the Mods directory. ENo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 ENo, If you cannot figure out why the mod will not install, use by web site link in my signature and send me credentials so I can login with TNG Admin privileges and you might need to also send me FTP access credentials.

XerxX Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hi Ken and thanks for taking care of this. It's morning here now (8:15 AM) so I've been sleeping through your conversation. (This heat - 30+deg C in the shadow - is quite exhausting) DId you solve it? Please let me know (PM or mail is fine if you want to) Best regards, Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiEiNo Posted June 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Ken, Having put the OpenStreetMap files into the Mods directory, it gives the error message: Cannot install The Status Column tells us: line 34: %copyfile: heatmap_OSM.php source missing Source: mods/OpenStreetMap.6/heatmap_OSM.php line 451: %location:% #2 not unique ine 816: %location:% #1 not unique line 1269: %target:@osm_settings.php% file missing (optional) will ignore errors: 3 - - - - - - - - - All the other mods installed without problems..

XerxX Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hi ENo, Modmanager says that the "heatmap_OSM.php" file is missing but you attach it so it's there. Or isn't it inside the folder "OpenStrretMap.6" where it should be: As you can see, the file "osm_settings.php" should also be there. Check both. I will have a look at what the "Not unique" means. I'll be back soon. /Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Roy Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 ENo, Did you put the OpenStreetMap.6 directory and all its contents as a directory under the mods directory? The heatmap_OSM.php file is in the OpenStreetMap.6 directory and must be there to install. Erik, Not Unique means that the same code or code fragment can be found elsewhere. It could indicate a conflict or that the mod was not removed completely before upgrading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XerxX Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Ken, I'm looking at it right now. "what it means" meant to mean "why it appears". Yes, probably a conflict so I'm very interested. ENo, what Ken says Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XerxX Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hi ENo, Did you install the mod "OSM Automatic Geocoding"? If so: Uninstall it and wait until after you have installed the OSM mod. The OAG mod must be uninstalled while the OSM mod is installed or uninstalled. I suspect that your two "Not unique" came because of that, as they both add the "Geocode" tab that the OSM mod removes. /Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiEiNo Posted June 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 The Solution is found! Searching for any errors with the cfg-file or the content in the OSM folder I noticed that the name of the heatmap_OSM.php file asked for had the letters 'OSM' in big format, but found in the actual folder the file name had 'osm' in small letters. Now the file name is heatmap_OSM.php all over and the installation went quite well. Thanks for all your help! ENo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XerxX Posted June 25, 2020 Report Share Posted June 25, 2020 Hi ENo. For some reason the file must have been renamed as it's got the correct name in the download. Anyway; I'm glad that the problem is solved. Have a nice summer! Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
