MissingMethodException

When I try to start the trackme client on my HTC Tilt I get an error stating...

MissingMethodException

at

System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Parent()

at ControlCollection.Add()

at

TrackMe.FormMain.InitializeComponent()

at

.... (more)

I tried installing/reinstalling the compact 3.5 framework with no luck. I am using the 2 (.net & sqlserver) packages located in the 1st message of the thread.

Any ideas?

Thanks...

Looks like mcross is taking over the dev of the server page. Looks good. But need to increment the version number so we can make sure we have the most current.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
mcross,

Thanks. Date ranges work fine now. However, with that change that you made I cannot, for example, show only photos for a given date range.

Any chance of changing the interface to the one that I suggested? I think we would get more flexibility and we will get rid of a redundant button.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
jcleek,

I am not wanting to take over the development. There is no way I could have written what you have already done, and I am not even sure if I am sticking my code in the most apporpiate places. I needed a certain function so I wrote and then submitted back so other users could use if they chose too, thats the beauty of open source.

My hope is that if what I have written proves to be useful, you will add to your souce after verifying my contrubutions. I am more than willing to help with whatever tasks you assign. I will try to accomplish what staryon has suggested, if you would like.

I am having lots of fun with this app, and it will help me with my billing, I am a computer consultant and travel around town regularly, if I do not write down what I do, I can use trackme to see where I was/and how long to jogg my memory.

OwServer Problem

Hello,

yust find it in the Net and think: Whow thats it try it out!

so i do :-)

i startet up with setting up my database on the sql-server (5.0)

Then ftp-ing all the files to my Webspace in an own diretory with 777 permissions and start the install.php. Filling out anything it wants.

But i get an error that says nothing to me:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_get_contents() in /mnt/web5/23/48/5100148/htdocs/jaap/trackme/install.php on line 75

So, what to do?

Web Updates

Hey Jcleek and staryon,

I have made the changes staryon asked for, take a look and see if it works, I still need to make the summary change languages/units but I believe everything is working.

if it tests out I will upload the files.

One thing for you to know, when the Trip is changed, It will lookup the entire trip, pulling the begin and end dates, and summary data. after that the dates can be changed.

I also change the 'Show last location' to 'Live Tracking' in my language file.

Web Interface

Hi, at this time i have problems with the installation of trakme on my own Server (OK, not my own. Its my Hoster ;-) (2-3 Posts before) but i can test and play around with Staryon's server :-)

Thanks for it!

My question: Where can i find the Webinterface from jcleek?

I want to build an "Testwebpage" to look whats going on and how it works :-)

Greetings from Germany Kai-Uwe

Hello Kai-Uwe,

I am new to trackme too, but I'll try to help.

It sounds like you already have downloaded the server files according to your previous post, but just in case you can find them here.

if the install.php does not work, I would just edit your config.php directly and then upload to your web server. In the config just edit the Database Information, add your google api key.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kai-Uwe:
Sorry, no...

@mcross

php is not my world...But tried it out to fix my probs. Fine, looks simple to find the places where to edit the config php.

So i put in my Database-Name, Database-Username, Database-Password, and my API-Key. Than ftp it up to my server. Let it all in " " OK?

Runing Trackme..and getting errors:

-------------------------------------

User didnt exist and system was unable to create it

Check you are entering a username and password in the account information

---------------------------------------

Ok go to the config screen an look what i have done:

i tried out in "Account":

My dates from stayron Server 8OK, could not work :-))

Username & Password from my Database ---did not work

Username & Password from my webspace --- did not work

In Server: I put the root adress of my server without www... so only jaap.de

The rest stays original.....

hope you understand my bad english.

Greetings Kai-Uwe
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Awesome!! Thank you very much!

I tested it and it works fine. The only problem that I've seen is when you click on 'Live Tracking' that returns an error.

Once you fix that problem I will update the files.

Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jcleek:
It sounds to me like a MySQL issue with a MySQL account. Your root hosting account may or may not have access to your MySQL installation. Usually you create an account to give applications access to the data. You need to make sure the account information you are putting in the config.php file really exist and have access to the database.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jcleek:
Well much of what I wrote isn't mine. There have been many contributions to the effort, I was just managing the files. Since you are the one making the bulk of the changes now you should manage the files until someone else has something significant to add. Its all you baby!

problems with own server

The Database exists. I have checked this. Other tools works with my (other)databases ( for example Sitebar).

Maybe i do something wrong with the configuration in Trackme?

So on the Config Page at "Remote", what do i have to put in?

Account: My Username/Password for my own WEB-FTP? Cause Tackme wants to load up files/data? Ore something different?

In "Server": My Webroot: jaap.de? Root folder, where Trackme stays (/trackme)?

The Account Dates of the Database are stored in the config.php.

I tried out to go to: www.jaap.de/trackme/index.php and got the following Messages: (At this time i thing the reason is about the missing data in the Tables)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GpsPasSion:
I have pretty much the same problem, installation went fine (after I added a <?php at the beginning of the config.php file is the install.php was not creating it), but I can't upload data from my device, I suspect it is a path problem as I get a "404" error, but can't figure out if/how the path needs to be set in config.asp ?

What confuses me is the readme instructions, paragraph 8 "name of the folder where you uploaded all of the php files". Can't see where to put that info in config.asp ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
Kai-Uwe,

I have tried to reproduce your error but can't, I agree with jcleek that it must be a database issue, username/password. The MySQL errors you get from the webpage are because you have no users in your users table. The reason you have no users is because Trackme app cannot create a user.

I set my trackme (which works fine with other remotes) to point to your site and get the same errors you report, so I don't believe its a problem with the trackme program.

I wonder what will happen if you add your username and password manually to the database.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GpsPasSion:
But if it was a username/password issue the tables wouldn't have been created by the install.php though ? I had that problem at first with a user that had limited access.

Did you specify a path in the config.php as per step 8 of the instructions ? I think our problem could be in the path somewhere.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
I don't see a place to put a path in the config.php.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kai-Uwe:
Hi how do i add a username and password manually in the database?

i can create a database withe the Frontend of my provider. Than i can set a passwort. Then i got the Databasename and the Username createt by the frontend of my provider.

Via the frontend i can look in the database. at this time there is nothing in it. Also no tables.

And please what do i have to put in the configuraton of Trackme? i don't want to make mistakes there and also dont want to try oud any combination every time :-) So what username/password combination? Database User7Password? WEB-Accsess/FTP Username/Password ord what?

I editet the config.php manually (DB-User/DB-Password/DB-Name/API-Key). No result. I tried out again to use the install.php. It shows me than the values i have editit in the config.php. When i want to continue installation i get the error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_get_contents() in /mnt/web5/23/48/5100148/htdocs/jaap/trackme/install.php on line 75

Could it be that the problem is that the installation go wrong and i got no tables in my database?

Greetings Kai-Uwe
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GpsPasSion:
Ah, if you don't have any tables then the install did not go correctly, likely a username/password/rights problem indeed.

@mcross - thanks, must be from an older version then. Will keep on looking to fix my 404 problem !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
using the frontend to your database, import the database.sql file. this will create your tables.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kai-Uwe:
Didt not work.. got the Message:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
I don't know why you are getting that error, but I guess you can edit the database.sql and change `URL` varchar( 512 ) NOT NULL , to `URL` varchar( 255 ) NOT NULL ,

and then try the import again
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kai-Uwe:
one step forward

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One Step forward!!!!

Have to search a little bit but then found it. How to import the sql-file.

Now i have the tables icons, positions, trips and users in my database :o

AND: I COULD SEE MY TRIP IN GOOGLE EARTH!!!!!

!!!WITH MY OWN SERVER!!!

Birthday and thanksgiving in one day today :D

That more than half oft it!! wonderfull!

So the last problem is: When i go to http://www.jaap.de/trackme/index.php

i got only this:

-----------------------------------------------------------------

TrackMe Display (v1.15)

One or more TrackMe tables in your database are empty. You must generate data by running the TrackMe application on your Windows Mobile device before the map display will work properly.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope we can solve this one also :))

Greetings Kai-Uwe

PS: i have stoped crying...Smiling now :-))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
Kai-Uwe,

glad you are not crying now, one of your tables does not contain data, using your front end look at the contents of each table to see which one is blank. I would assume its the icons table.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kai-Uwe:
Oh ****...

...im Blind!!!! Forget to delete the install and sql file.

And: Yes the trip table was emty. Just walk in front of the door with the system. Wait 30 seconds...and there will be a trip :-)

Now anything runs fine!!!!!!

Thanks a lot!

But now we know that the automatic installation did not run fine anytime.

Ah mybe you want to kno how i fixed the Database error when trying to import the sql file...

just delete the database (It was SQL Version 4....) and make a new one with Version 5...

So if anybody got the same prob:

Just create a database with SQL-Version 5... and import the sql-file manually. Dont forget to edit the config.php by yourself. Than it works!

The Account information in Tracke me is whatever you want. It creates the account by himself. so for the user it just has effect for the name of the kml-file.

MANY greetings Kai-Uwe
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kai-Uwe:
Next problem..

Now I have set in the config.php:

--------------------------------------------

// Public Page Access (yes or no)

$public_page = "No";

-------------------------------------------

when going to http://www.jaap.de/trackme/index.php i need an username and passwort. Thougt it was one of my combination. but thy did not work.

What do i need?

At this time i have switched back to public=yes

Greetings Kai-Uwe
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
use the username/password combination you used in trackme remote tab.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] verona:
Absolutely great software. It works fine on my TYTN II (Vodafone edition with HTC ROM).

The only thing I wonder a bit after installation: If the VPA is unused he goes off. The only way to repower him is the reset button. The power on button is not working anymore. Any hint / solution ?

Is it possible, when GPS signal returns (like after a tunnel, for example) to make a fixing of the position automatically? Can be reduced dynamically, update time (10 seconds) in function of the speed? 10 seconds, at 160km/h, covering a curved road or railway, are many IMHO.

Tanks and excuse my ugly english

web update

staryon,

I fixed the errors on the live tracking button and made changes so the trip summary will change to current status when Live tracking is selected, also added a countdown to data refresh.

added trackme icon too.

I am attaching all files but the ones that are updated/new are: index, language, config (I incremented the version by one), favicon.ico, and the calendar files(this includes the lang folder)

if you want to look at changes, go here
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Sorry but I don't have plans in adding that feature. Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
It looks great. Thanks mcross. Where do you have those files, so I can upload them to my server?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
sorry forgot to attach the files
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Thanks.

By the way, I changed the location of the files. Now you can download them as a single zip file. I decided to do that because there are already too many files.

You can download it from here:

http://luisespinosa.com/bin/trackme/server.zip

mcross,

A couple of suggestions...

1. When you select a trip, as soon as is selected it will show that trip, instead of waiting for the Show button to be pressed. Do you think you can disable that?

In some cases you may a have a trip with many positions and you just want to select a date range for that trip, however as soon as the trip is selected it will query the database and you have to wait.

2. Do you think you can remove the label that says 'TrackMe Display (v1.15)' at the top? It just takes space in your screen and without that label users can make the map bigger.

thanks a lot! The latest changes look great!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
New version available!

Now you can upload offline pictures. TrackMe will extract creation date information from the pictures and it will try to match it with the existing GPS positions. If the time difference is less than X for a certain position it will upload that picture to the server and it will assign it to that position.

I plan to get GPS data from the image as well in a future version...

mcross,

I have modified the file requests.php

I have updated the server files with this one.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcross:
Attached are updated files to give users the option of having the header or not. changed index, config and language.

The reason I decided to look up the entire trip first was, to show the user the start and end date of the entire trip, otherwise you would not know for sure the exact start and end of each trip. maybe if the dates are left blank it will look entire trip otherwise use range.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
ok, I understand.

I also have the problem that when I first log in, it takes forever, because it will load the first trip that I have available (which is a long trip), but I am not really interested in showing that trip. That's why I thought that the viewer shouldn't show anything until the user decides what he/she wants to see.

But I understand your point.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Armageddon67:
Thank you anyway :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
mcross,

Would it be possible to show the trip summary and the date range but without showing the data? I mean, when you select a trip, run some queries to get that information and nothing else.

At least in my case at this moment I cannot use the viewer.It just takes too long every time that I log in.

Good news, my server is now up and running thanks to the lastet install and full zip, maybe I was missing a file, oh well ;-)

I have a couple of suggestions for the "forced update" button. It works pretty well as it is, but could it be added to the buttons on the main page, there is still room on the right and it would be easier to use that way.

More importantly could you freeze the GPS position when the button is pushed that way you can memorize a specific spot and then type your text when time permits (useful when driving!).

Also, could you blank out the form once it has been sent that way the user won't have to delete the link for a picture or the previous text.

Thanks for a great app !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:

Hi All,

I recently went on a trip and used TrackMe to cature my routes. How ever, when I got back from my trip that I realised individual kml files we're not created but its been over written each time.

I realise that there is a log files with all the gps cordianates, is there any way to create the kml files from that? so that i can view the routes in google map?
