Rudolf, the message appears if you enter a street and a city in the search mask and there is no such street in the city. The mapping which street belongs to which city is a pending problem of mkgmap. You can test that by entering the street name only. The locator branch tries to improve the city mapping. You can download it here: http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/snapshots/ But it is still under development. WanMil
Hello, i've found a problem with mapsource and street search: i've created a map with r1896 and the germany/schleswig-holstein data from geofabrik.
I've installed the map with the nsis-installer and can search for Wihlemstrasse in Kiel. If i try to search for Wihelminenstrasse, the street is shown in the search list but: "Die ausgewählte Straße ist in diesem Kartenprodukt nicht zulässig" (The selected street isn't allowed in this map product)
I've tested to search with my garmin etrex and the town doesn't show in the list of towns.
The mkgmap parameters are
--max-jobs --style-file=%styles%\basemap_style\ --description=Openstreetmap --max-jobs --country-name=Germany --country-abbr=DE --area-name="DE_%DATE%" --latin1 --code-page=1252 --gmapsupp --nsis --keep-going --transparent --name-tag-list='name:de,name,name:latin,name:en' --x-tdbfile --add-pois-to-areas --make-all-cycleways --link-pois-to-ways --remove-short-arcs --net --route --index --location-autofill=1 --generate-sea=multipolygon,extend-sea-sectors,close-gaps=1000 --adjust-turn-headings --reduce-point-density=4 --reduce-point-density-polygon=8 --merge-lines --family-id=4 --product-id=45 --series-name=OSM-AllInOne-sh-bmap --family-name=aio-sh-OSM --mapname=63240345 --draw-priority=10 ..\*.osm.gz basemap.TYP
I'm using the style files from the aio map.
regards Rudolf
