'Not Near Any Road' Error Message

Hi Folks, I'm using the latest build of mkgmap and loading the results onto my Garmin Vista HCx. The map renders fine on the gps, but whenever I try to route anywhere (including to a destination within the tile in which I'm originating) the route computation fails at about 2% and complains that I'm not near a road. I'm using: java -jar ./mkgmap/mkgmap.jar ./midab.osm ./southab.osm --gmapsupp --route I'm going to try compilation with a single .osm tile, but I never used to have this problem with an older version of mkgmap - I just can't remember which older version that was! I've tried setting a reference point to a road or intersection before I try and route but that doesn't help either, it still fails. Any help much appreciated - thanks!

Did it previously succeed with exactly the same data, or could it be that the map data has grown so much that you are hitting some limitation of the Garmin format or the Garmin implementation of interpreting the format? Have you tried to enable logging? Have you tried to compile the same map with a older versions of mkgmap? Do you have a rough idea how old the mkgmap was that you were using previously? Best regards, Marko

Build a map of where you are, go outside and wait for a fix, and redo. I'm sure you're not understanding your GPS and how it works at all.

Try to revert the order of options so that the osm files are last: java -jar ./mkgmap/mkgmap.jar --gmapsupp --route ./midab.osm ./southab.osm At least if you use a configuration file any option will only be used for osm files in the config file AFTER that line. Might be the same for the command line, but I'm not sure.
