Option --index but no "Find Place" in Mapsource

I use mkgmap 2373 with the default-style. My Optionfile is: family-name=TEST series-name=TEST description=TEST bounds=\Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip country-name=Deutschland country-abbr=DEU region-name=Deutschland region-abbr=DEU name-tag-list=name:de,int_name,name:en,name index route net nsis area-name=Germany road-name-pois=0x2f15 draw-priority=20 reduce-point-density=2.6 reduce-point-density-polygon=1.2 merge-lines remove-short-arcs latin1 levels=0:24,1:23,2:22,3:21,4:20,5:19,6:17 max-jobs The Commandline is: java -Xmx1500M -jar p:\gps\bin\mkgmap\mkgmap.jar -c mkgmap.opt -c input-files OSM-Data are a little part from the germany_20121118.osm.pbf (splitted in 63240001.img ... 63240008.img) All is fine but i expected, that in Mapsource the Menu "Find place" (in german "Orte suchen") is usable. But this is greyed out. I don't find my mistake. Have you everywhere a simple example for that or is that an error in mkgmap? With best regards

You need the –tdbfile option as well if you are using mapsource – this creates the essential mdx and mdr files. If the mdr file is missing the Find Place will be greyed out. more on www.pinns.co.uk/osm/address.html From: Frank Stinner [via GIS] Sent: Friday, November 23, 2012 8:12 AM To: n Willink Subject: Option --index but no "Find Place" in Mapsource I use mkgmap 2373 with the default-style.

Sorry, but i have no success Just I use mkgmap 2379 with the default-style. My Optionfile is: family-name=TEST series-name=TEST description=TEST bounds=\Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip country-name=Deutschland country-abbr=DEU region-name=Deutschland region-abbr=DEU name-tag-list=name:de,int_name,name:en,name index route net tdbfile nsis area-name=Germany road-name-pois=0x2f15 draw-priority=20 reduce-point-density=2.6 reduce-point-density-polygon=1.2 merge-lines remove-short-arcs latin1 levels=0:24,1:23,2:22,3:21,4:20,5:19,6:17 max-jobs I think, the Registry is ok: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Garmin\Mapsource\Families\FAMILY_6324] "ID"=hex:B4,18 "IDX"="j:\\Gps\\Projekte\\DB-Test\\org_mkgmap\\osmmap.mdx" "MDR"="j:\\Gps\\Projekte\\DB-Test\\org_mkgmap\\osmmap_mdr.mdx" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Garmin\Mapsource\Families\FAMILY_6324\1] "Loc"="j:\\Gps\\Projekte\\DB-Test\\org_mkgmap\\" "Bmap"="j:\\Gps\\Projekte\\DB-Test\\org_mkgmap\\osmmap.img" "Tdb"="j:\\Gps\\Projekte\\DB-Test\\org_mkgmap\\osmmap.tdb" Maybe the order of the options is important???

I don't think the order is important, but maybe one of the options causes trouble. For example, merge-lines is documented to cause routing-errors.

My guess: bounds=\Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip should be bounds=Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip

No success: SCHWERWIEGEND (BoundaryUtil): .\63240001.osm.pbf: boundary directory/zip does not exist: Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip SCHWERWIEGEND (LocationHook): .\63240001.osm.pbf: LocationHook is disabled because no bounds files are available. Dir: Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip "\Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip" is an absolute path (beginning at the root). "Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip" is an relativ path (beginning at the current directory). The first path is real that what i mean. By the way, the Java-File-class accepts all this variants (on a windows-machine): bounds=\Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip bounds=j:\Gps\Data\bounds_20121019.zip bounds=/Gps/Data/bounds_20121019.zip bounds=j:/Gps/Data/bounds_20121019.zip
