OSM Scout Server: offline maps
-
Awesome work, ill be trying this out soon!
-
For me it doesn't work. Pure Maps recognizes the OSM Scout maps, but if I zoom in it doesn't show small streets or street names or similar. Also, if the phone is total offline (wifi and mobile data), there will be an error message when Pure Maps starts.
-
@ma
I think maybe OSM server is not running then and it only show you what is already cached.
Even if you selected auto start of the server, I don't think it works on UT, so you need to run the OSM server manually.
The behavior you're reporting is the same I have when I forgot to start the server.Keep us posted.

@AppLee I also used UTTT to set OSM so it doesnt sleep, otherwise I would get this issue as well
-
@AppLee I reinstalled the maps. Now it works! Nevertheless I get an error message when starting Pure Maps if the phone is totaly offline.

@AppLee The settings in UB Tweak Tool were made. Now I reinstalled Pure Maps. But the error message continues to appear when starting Pure Maps totally offline ("loading style failed: Host localhost could not be found"). Nevertheless the app works if you click the message away.
-
@ma Strange, I have no idea.
But if it works later then
I remember seeing this message the very first time I tried, but I don't know what I could have done instead of just running the server and then running pure maps...
Sorry -
This message could be caused by Qt bug. Not 100% sure, but we had issues with offline mode on Sailfish and I had to use non-Qt ways of fetching data. If it works later, its probably OK. Otherwise we will have to use the same hybrid approach as we have.
If its a bug I am thinking about, all should work with misconfigured but non-offline net without errors. As soon as you make offline fully, it will stop working. Can be tested by comparing misconfigured wifi switch net with offline mode, for example

lately i have problems with osm scout offline, i install the server offline and when i open pure maps or not it opens the map or you see only some brown stripes and no street or anything.i have tested it in rc, devel and edge with the same result.i do not know if it is a problem of the app or the operating system.!

some of it is blank and some of it is with the streets

@ricardo65
Is OSM server running ? And did you allow background execution for it ?
This looks like the cache version of previous data from the OSM server. -
Indeed, looks like Pure Maps is using cached tiles and OSM Scout Server is not responding/running. And why, just why, on Linux, someone decided to freeze non-active apps? No such issues on Sailfish...
-
@AppLee Thank you very much.problem solved.a question that tab could not be activated by default?
-
New maps are imported and out. Took longer break due to the lockdown and thought that there was no big point in refreshing it before...

Has anyone tried 'Convergence' w/Nexus 5 with OSM Scout Server & Pure Maps? This is the configuration I need!
-
@rvan
Convergence never worked on my Nexus5, so don't be sure to get convergence on any device running under Ubports...Oneplus 6 (A6003)
UBports 16.04 RC 2021-W32 -
@rvan
What do you call convergence?OSM Scout Server and Pure Maps are working great on the Nexus5.
-
@magdesign
Same thing? What do you call convergence? -
The N5 has the ability to work with an external keyboard and monitor. I have never tried it on my N5 either. I have seen reports of it working properly. I suppose it's possible this capability was removed in the process of making upgrades to new LTS releases. I do not know the current status of this feature.
