They are allmost the same but the asp webserver server can't handle the

/gps/requests.asp action=upload&

it needs to start with

/gps/requests.asp?username=

so start right away without the action=upload etc

otherwise the asp webserver gives a error

full wich works (i tested it)

/gps/requests.asp?username=bwired&password=test&lat=51.7250546833333&long=5.30120238333333&dateadded...... and so on

Then I can make a ASP file like the PHP and it also works for MS webserver....would be great
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
sorry but I still don't understand.

Why you can do...

/gps/requests.asp?username=bwired...

and you cannot

/gps/requests.asp?action=whatever

?

what's the difference?

'action' is just a parameter. The same as 'username'

I'm probably missing something, but I cannot get it... sorry about that.

Thanks staryon, the scroll bars work a treat!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Ok, so you are using Google Earth and storing data locally. That's what I really needed to help me to find the error.

I just uploaded a new version that fixes that error. You will have to generate the KML again.

For the future... hey guys, when you have a problem please mention as much details as you can. If you are using your own server, if you are storing the data locally or remotely, if you are viewing the data with Google Earth, Google Maps or from the browser using jcleek's plugin.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bwired:
OK, try again

ASP webserver can do this, you get error

/gps/requests.asp action=upload&

the space after /gps/requests.asp can not be handled.

Needs to start with ?

Hope this is clear, or do you have other suggestion to make this work.

just in case, check that you haven't included an extra space in the TrackMe configuration. There is a text box to enter the file extension. You should have asp there.

log in issue

First thanks for all your hard work. I am using your free server. Can you please follow the following steps? It appears that there may be a problem with logging into your free server.

1)	start your Internet Explorer and paste the following:

http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php?username=zzkz&password=zzkz

2)	Select Show Last Location or Show Trip and go back and forth few times between the two.

3)	Log out from http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php

4)	You get transferred to http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php?action=logout

5)	Try going to a different web site like www.google.com

6)	Now paste the following into Internet Explorer again:

http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php?username=zzkz&password=zzkz

7)	Click on Show Trip or Show Last Location. Your web site changes to the following page and prompts for username/password:

http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php

Why is this happening? I was already logged-in.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tigggger:
Hi,

Does the GPS data contain the direction of travel (I presume so as tomtom shows it) and if so can this be added to the database.

It would be handy in the baloon to see which way the person/vehicle is moving.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
It seems that with Firefox works fine but it doesn't with IE.

Let's wait for jcleek to see this post, I'm sure he will be able to help you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
The GPS data doesn't include that information. That's something I would like to add, but it can be a little bit tricky. Not sure if I will end up adding it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bwired:
I will take a while but I have no problem in sharing it, I will share the ASP file which logs the data in a MYsql server database soon, Then I move on building other pages as well

Free Server is not working...

Hello,

I can paste the following link ( http://luisespinosa.com:80/trackme/routes/zzkz.kml )into Google Maps ( http://maps.google.com/ ) and it shows my track, however your free server is not showing it when I log into your site (http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php ) and select Show Trip (the Show last Location is working). My username is zzkz and password is zzkz . Can you please look into this issue? I am using IE v6 to access your web page. Thanks for all your hard work…
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
You are confusing some terms.

http://luisespinosa.com:80/trackme/routes/zzkz.kml is a EXPORTED trip

which could be generated in many different ways. Maybe it was created for a specific trip, any trip, with a date range... whatever parameters you chose.

It's a custom exported file.

When you go to http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php, you view all the positions for a specific trip (based on the trip you have selected in the drop down box). That viewer doesn't use KML files.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] z_zk_z:
Okay, thanks for clarifying. I want to save GPS locations on my Pocket PC, then to upload the data for viewing on your free server (http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php ). I must not have the right settings. After my trip, I select Upload offline positions from the Tools menu and I get an error saying that “Config – You don’t have offline positions stored.” What settings do I need under the Config menu in order to have your program save GPS positions for uploading later?

I have selected the Always for Remote tab under the Offline data (store locally if…).

I also have selected Locally for Store positions: under the Storage tab.

I have checked the Generate KNL file with Local for the Destination file(s) under the Realtime Tracking tab.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
z_zk_z,

If you haven't done yet, I suggest that you read the documentation about the program. I also recommend you to check the option 'Hide Advanced settings' by now until you got more experience with the program.

Please take a look at the documentation first and I'll be glad in helping you with any problems.

I'm fairly certain that all carriers have some email-to-sms gate address. I'm on AT&T here in the States, and I can send a short email to 2225551212@txt.att.net and it shows up on my phone. It's a work-around for now until/if/when staryon adds direct sms functionality.

Here's a list I found online... Replace 2225551212 with your actual 10-digit mobile phone number. Maybe your carrier is listed here. If not, check their web site or call customer service.

mime.types

Hey staryon... I don't know if you can get your hosting company to update their mime.types file, but if you add the following to mime.types, then cab files will download correctly:

application/cab cab

If they don't want to update it, you can add the following to the/a .htaccess file in the /bin directory of your webspace:

AddType application/cab cab

That'll get rid of the "refresh" trick when downloading the cab file directly to the phone with PIE. Internet Explorer incorrectly ignores mime types sent to the server from .htaccess files, though, so I don't know for sure if the .htaccess mime type will work in PIE.

Let me try on my server... CONFIRMED! The .htaccess file mime type will work with Pocket IE.

at first of all, hello and i'm brand new here ;)

For quite long time i've been following this thread and always wanted to write something ;) here is good moment ;)

2225551212@text.plusgsm.pl

by the way

trackme is really great idea for ppc program, like everybody here, i also was looking for that kind of "spy" software ;)

i'm using it on asus a636n pda and ther've been and still are problems. Tomorrow i'll check the latest version of TM and then will share with you, all my observation.

at the begining i had "sqlceme30.dll" problem, but easly i solved it.

the main problems are:

(i think) it doesnt read gps position, when the option "don't upload consecutive...." is checked, then TM informs me all the time that it skkips position cause.... i'm not moving, when i uncheck that option, then TM uploads points to the server, but when i'm checking my track at Google Earth, all the points of my route are in one place, mostly it's the begining of my route.

Time to time TM reads the position corectly, but i have to find out: when

2nd problem, i cant check the closest buddy, when i do it, TM gives me error:

http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/8060/dscf0002zx9.jpg

that is so far

aaaaa

and i'm missing that black interface, the new one is quite bright and it's disturbing during a driving

well, so far that would be all

cheers

Hi,

For the first problem...

Could you enable the option 'Log GPS positions to a file' and send me the file gpspositions.txt once you got that problem?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jcleek:
I tried to reproduce the problem on my server and am unable to do so. Based on what I see on Staryons server I looked at the code and here is how it works:

1) Is this a private server: yes

2) Is there a cookie set from a previous login: yes

The second time you go to the link http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php?username=zzkz&password=zzkz the username and pass being passed are IGNORED as the cookie was set from the previous login. Putting the user name and pass do absolutely nothing.

So why is this happening on Staryon's server? Actually I submit that this is an IE setting problem and NOT a server problem. You might try to tell IE to stop caching pages.

Is anyone else running their own server experiencing this problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
New version available!!!

- You can access the Configuration and other menus without pressing STOP first

- GeoFence. Ability to send emails and/or SMS

- Send position by sms added.

- Emails and SMS messages now contain 2 links. The first one is a link to Google Maps to watch it on your PC, and the second one is a link to a static image that can be seen by PDAs. TrackMe will try to generate a short link, if not possible it will just use the regular Google Maps link.

PS: Personally I'm very proud of this version!! :) It took me a long time to figure out the way of generating static images out of Google Maps and also it was an adventure to find the way of sending SMS internally (it also cost me a some euros to test over and over the functionality). On the other hand, I had to redo many things so you don't need to click on STOP for accessing the menus. I tried to do everything transparent to the user and as easy as possible.

I hope you guys appreciate all this and visit that link that I have in my signature ;)

Enjoy!!

TrackMe does not work with AT&T Tilt

I have read your tutorial but there seems to be an issue with your server. I am using an AT&T Tilt (WM6 Pro)/Kaiser and running TrackMe V2.3.1.41. I used your program this morning and it was able to generate a KML file remotely on your site (look at the date/time) at http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/routes/zzkz.kml , however, if you go to http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/index.php and login using username=zzkz and password=zzkz, you will not see any data from this morning, when you click on Show Trip, and if you click on Show Last Location, you would see data from few days ago (I think an earlier version of TrackMe was somehow working, just the Show Last Location. The Show Trip has never worked and it only shows the world map). I also get an error saying “You don’t have offline positions stored.” when I select Menu/Tools/Upload offline positions. Any suggestions!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
About the buddies...

We who use our own server get no buddies (or at least I do not). So, I was wondering if the Buddy part of Trackme could always hit your server to upload our position and then check for closest person to us.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
I checked your data in the database and yes, you have some positions stored there.

I just told jcleek about this problem. I think the problem happens if you have positions with no trip assigned.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
I checked my code and I just found a problem. This feature was returning your closest buddy based on your OLDEST uploaded position. It should be based on your LATEST uploaded position. I just fixed that.

It's only on the server side (I only changed the file requests.php)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
And yes, the buddies are taken from the server that you have in the Remote tab in Configuration.

I prefer not to change that, so I keep it consistent with the rest.

Waiting for GPS response

Hi!

This program looks great! I have installed int an a asus p535 with wm6.

I have configured my GPS port COM2 with the 4800 rate. It's the same as I use for all my GPS programs.

But when i click connect it says: "waiting for GPS response"

I'm sure this is the port and I have no other GPS program connected at the same time.

When I test another simple GPS program, i receive all satellites, so I have a GPS signal at the moment.

What might be the problem? Unsupported internal GPS?

Thanks!

65 Degree Tilt

Every time my realtime Google Earth updates, it goes back to a 65 Degree Tilt, is there some setting that will make it stay at a different tilt, or is it set in the update file that is created by TrackMe. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Great Program !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mfrodrigues:
Thank you for you quick answer!

The gpsinit didn't work, but i think it's normal because the program tries to open a com4, port right? And my internal GPS is using COM2.

I have downloaded the evaluation version of GPSState, and i have done the some as the user on the post you provided me. And in fact know i can use TrackMe!!!

The only thing i did was a redirect from com2 to com5, and know i can use the program. But it's only for 14 days :(

Do you have any idea of what is happening? Im 100% sure that no other program is sharing the com2 port. I have also done a soft reset and tested again but it only works with gpsstate sharing com4.

Thank you very much for you help!

btw: I'm already seeing this on the web interface.. Its really amazing!

It looks like your GPS stops getting data for a few minutes. Very strange.

For that reason TrackMe is always reading the same data.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Karol-pl:
i dont know what to think about it. After i splitted my gps signal on 2 ports i tried to log gps signal in 2 programs, 1st was TM and 2nd GPSdash.

here are results:

View attachment gps.zip- it's rar file actually.

what it can be ?

i tried all option. Online storing to server, storing to offline file and storing to local KML file, all the results are the same.

http://luisespinosa.com/trackme/routes/karol-pl.kml local KML is in attach.

the results of the GPSdash are mostly corect ;)

route1 (TM works in online mode): View attachment 60855 - zip file

route2 (TM works in offline mode): View attachment 60856 - zip file

route3 (TM works in local storing mode): View attachment gps.zip
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mfrodrigues:
Yes, you are right! GPSGate solved my problem. But its costs 19$ :(

So I have tryied several programs including port splitter and none worked for me...except one! GPSProxy!!!! :)

You can proxy a connection from COM2 to COM5 and everything runs great! So, it's a good solution to Asus users.

Note: Some Asus users(like me) will do do some tweaks to the gpsproxy! Here is the link with all the info:
