Hi, I have been trying for a few hours now and i need to generate a map but it says its "working" then says "Error: Generation failed". I have tried on different browsers, drawing out the boundaries,and manually entering the Lat/long. Nothing works. I read somewhere the server could be reset? I hope we haven't lost this map creation feature XCsoar is a staple to my flying.

Its really unnecessary to have yet another see you cup parser/writer.
@Turbo87's aerofiles should be used in /lib/xcsoar/mapgen/waypoints/seeyou_reader.py

In some cases this seems to happen:

The current code is not compatible with 5.4 of openlayers.org.
lib/xcsoar/mapgen/server/mapgen.js needs a reimplementation.

I ve created a new map for Turkey, but I can only downloaded 2mb part of all file. and it start again a few time, and showed that fault "the file is missing" I can't solve that please help me :)

The MAP of the Netherlands shows land instead of water in XCSoar. (IJsselmeer). See screenshot and picture of map below. Can you fix that?

Trying to convert .cup file to an XCM but every time, no matter what .cup file I select, I get error "Unsupported waypoint file"

currently urls are hardcoded in a lot of locations.
this needs to be centralized and be configurable.
Consider environment variables also, as that is a good way to overrule urls in a container environment.

The ogr2ogr command has changed in arguments and needs to be recoded.

No clickable url in the text, no map name in the text or information has how to regenerate it.

Hi,

I'm not sure if the issue is in the correct spot here (or should be in /mapdata), apologies if it isn't.

Basically, a huge sea in the Netherlands shows up as land (see picture).

There's quite some glider activity around that area so an improvement would be welcomed by many I guess. I already tried making a smaller map of that area only but it doesn't help. Also, I did a little research and tried to read and edit the .xcm map using Qgis but that didn't work...

If there's a way to fix this by myself, please let me know.

Thanks,
Niels

This issue lists Renovate updates and detected dependencies. Read the Dependency Dashboard docs to learn more.

This repository currently has no open or pending branches.

Detected dependencies

• Check this box to trigger a request for Renovate to run again on this repository

It makes no sense to separate the repos. This way we can ensure that the containers are rebuilt and that the same code is building stuff.

XCSoar versions having and not having the problem

6.8.17

Expected behavior

Sea area is represented as land

Actual behavior

A part of the IJsselmeer in the Netherlands (between the Afsluitdijk and the Houtribdijk) is falsely represented as land area instead of water.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Pan to the area and you will sea ;-) how it looks like.

Do you have any idea what may have caused this?

Do you have an idea how to solve the issue?

We use subprocess calls to call:

• wget
• 7zip
• gdal

For all of these ready made python libraries exist today.

current mapgen is running containerized and is exposed via reverse proxy via http://traefik.io
Traeffik io could do ssl, but the redirect url is constructed falsley.

The maps on download.xcsoar.org are old. Most of them predate the migration to 8.33 kHz channels, so it makes sense to update them. The source files for german and dutch waypoints have since been updated, and mapgen produces new files.

Please queue the creation of new files and upload them to download.xcsoar.org

I used the tool successfully on March 5, but I have been unable to generate anything for the past three days. No matter what combination of options I try, the response is always:

Error: Generation failed!
