wrong coordinates on the map

[Jonathan-Quiroz]

I established the following coordinates in my skycam

latitude: 17.094476895778893,
longitude: 96.71138900955884,

but the location on the map is very far from the current location of the skycam

Can somebody help me?

[EricClaeys]

@Jonathan-Quiroz The map has these coordinates: 17.5, -96.42.
Please do the following:

cd ~/allsky/scripts
./postToMap.sh --debug --force

then copy/paste the results into your reply.
This will use the latitude and longitude that's in the WebUI, which should be the same as what's in the Allsky Website, but may not be.

@EricClaeys Thanks for your help, here are the results.

@Jonathan-Quiroz There are two placed you currently need to enter the coordinates:

1. In the WebUI. You have "latitude": "17.5N", "longitude": "96.42W". These are the coordinates the Allsky Map uses.
2. In the Allsky Website's config.js file, either in /var/www/html/allsky if on your Pi, or on your remote server (which I assume is what you have). This is where you have latitude: 17.094476895778893, longitude: 96.71138900955884,

The next version of Allsky will make it much easier to keep those sets of two coordinates in sync.

@EricClaeys Thank you very much, I have another problem, I can't see my skycam on the map

[EricClaeys]

@Jonathan-Quiroz I noticed that also, thought maybe you deleted it. Try deleting it, then adding it back
I think you delete it by /postToMap.sh --delete.

[Jonathan-Quiroz]

jonathan@allsky:~ $ /postToMap.sh --delete
-bash: /postToMap.sh: No such file or directory

[Jonathan-Quiroz]

also try to deactivate and reactivate in the GUI, and restarting the PI

[EricClaeys]

Sorry, you need to cd ~/allsky/scripts before executing postToMap.sh

[EricClaeys]

No need to reboot the Pi or even restart Allsky.

[Jonathan-Quiroz]

Thanks a lot

[Jonathan-Quiroz]

@EricClaeys now everything works better, thank you very much.

[EricClaeys]

@Jonathan-Quiroz My pleasure. I'm glad it working now, but am a little concerned that your camera temporarily was deleted from the map. I'll have to keep my eye on that.

If it is useful to you, I saw that there was another skycam in Chihuahua, Mexico, now I don't see it anymore, now I will look for a rain repellent to eliminate the drops of water ^_^
