try to change the permissions of your trackme directory to read, write and execute (777) or at least the one where the .kml should be stored. just for a few seconds, while you try to upload the first time, because i think it's NOT SAFE! after it was uploaded once, you can change the rights back to read and execute only (755). this worked for me.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] .wojtek:
Tried that - even with 0777 for every file and directory it doesn't work :|

There is seriously something wrong here. I was playing with the settings and ended up with:

- incorrect user/pass (no user a the server) o_x

- "Chechk you are entering a username and password in the account information." - this error message is way to enigmatic for me - I used the default config with only server name changed, user and pass remained the same as with default server. After switching back to luisespinosa.com it worke, I switched to mine server, again the same error...

- and now it only says that i provided incorrect password no matter what username I use.

I would even settle for storing trips on the phone (I could copy them later to the computer) but when I try to export locally it says it cannot connect to server and nothing is exported, grrr >: (and after restarting the app all trips are gone! o_x)

Nevermind. I've reinstalled everything from scratch, installed using IE and now it works!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AlkamistStar:
Wow!

This is a really fantastic application! Thank you so much for your hard work! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mwie:
No offline mode - no use!

Hi,

I testes TrackMe for some time now and I think it really is a great piece of work!

But as creating kml files is not possible without uploading the file to a server - I just deinstalled it.

Also the need for the mobile SQL is not clear to me...

Cool app - but not for me....

Switching to other alternatives.

Got it:

ALTER TABLE positions ADD `Altitude` double NOT NULL default '0';
ALTER TABLE positions ADD `Speed` double NOT NULL default '0';
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
yes, thanks odie3. Those are the only changes that I made to the database.

I haven't really tested this new version too much. I hope everything goes fine.

too busy with the documentation...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
Well, my PDA and my site is updated now. The only issue I had was when I first started the new PDA TrackMe, it gave me a error. Something like user/password format was incorrect. However, on the next upload (and all others after that) all where good.

On the website, only read from KLM file is showing Speed/Alt - not read from DB or current location. However, I believe the index.php will need updating to support the new table columns. I would do it but it is beyond my hacking. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rescue9:
I think I may be having the same problem that odie3 is having. I setup the server using the manual installation, following some of the lines in the automatic readme that jcleek has to make sure I set up the api key correctly. I then created a routes folder. However, every time I run the program I get the following:

Generating remote .klm file

Invalid Username/Password combination

I thought I could input any username and password. If not, which username and password do I need to use. I've tried the DB username and password, as well as the username and pwd that the html directory is under; neither seem to work.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
Ya, that was the error I got the first time I connected to the new Web code/New PDA TrackMe. However, on the next pass to login it corrected itself (or could have been due to putting in my php.ini file).

BTW, you do not use the DB User/Password, you should make something else up.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daesimps:
I too am having issues with the new version.

I get invalid username/password combination. No amount of restarting software, starting/stopping trips or trying different (new) usernames etc has worked.

I also have "error uploading position:An error message cannot be displayed because an optiona....." and the rest has run of the screen so I don't know what it says.

Daesimps

EDIT: Now fixed. I have to move the section below closer to the beginning of the file. This is because username was being checked against the database BEFORE the variable was declared.

$action = $_GET["action"];

$username = urldecode($_GET["username"]);

$password = urldecode($_GET["password"]);

$datefrom = urldecode($_GET["datefrom"]);

$dateto = urldecode($_GET["dateto"]);

$tripname = urldecode($_GET["tripname"]);
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
Ya, I am not sure why my started working, perhaps it was my php.ini.

Try my file in your /trackme/ root directory. It might help, then again it might not.

Remember to rename it to "php.ini"

or

Remember to rename it to ".htaccess"

Also you can try .htaccess file too, since before my hosting site updated their code I had to enable globals in a .htaccess file.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
There you go, my php.ini did fix it since globals where enabled.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
hey guys, when you are having a problem please mention if you are using your own server or my public server. That will help us to find the bugs.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
I pretty sure Rescue9 and I stated we where using or web sites but I guess I could have been clearer - sorry staryon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
oh... it's not because of you guys. I was just reading some old posts and sometimes it's hard to tell.

I should have been clearer too! :)

By the way, with the new version, the 'routes' folder is created automatically when needed, so you don't have to worry about that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daesimps:
I spoke too soon. I am still having a problem (own server).

I can upload points and use realtime tracking. However, when I try and get trip list I am told "incorrect Password for user".

I have tried the URL: http://myserver/where/requests.php?username=me&password=mypassword&action=gettriplist and get returned:

Result:18.11.07_19.16.36|Trip_14.11.07_17.06.02|Trip_15.11.07_07.09.22|Trip_16.11.07_07.06.56

This seems to indicate that the php file is correct, but for some reason the app doesn't like it.

Please note that my server is installed in a folder called where, not a folder called trackme as there is already another application using the trackme folder.

daesimps
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
Are you talking about getting the trip from your PDA or from the Web Page?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daesimps:
When I try and get trip list I am told "incorrect Password for user" - this is using the PDA in the config/export screens.

I have tried the URL: http://myserver/where/requests.php?u... n=gettriplist and get returned:

Result:18.11.07_19.16.36|Trip_14.11.07_17.06.02 - This is using my pc with Firefox
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] odie3:
Both getting trips from Config and from Export on my PDA seems to work. Also, I have the same result from using the manual link in firefox.

I am thinking if it is working in firefox/IE, then it should work in the PDA Application too. Also before when the Application did not work, the manual link in Firefox/IE would not work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daesimps:
I agree with your theory. However - it doesn't work on the PDA. It simply says "Incorrect Password for user".

I have even tried creating new users etc. Everything else seems to work. I can export to kml, but only if I search by date. I just can't obtain a list of trips.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Could you show me your requests.php file? Just in case I can see something wrong.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daesimps:
I have attached it for you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
hmmm.... that's the upload.php file, the one that I need is requests.php

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daesimps:
sorry - it's been a long day :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] catstrat:
Hey guys,

Quick question about how trackme displays, probably an easy one.

As you can see in the screenshot below, my route has been tracked successfully most of the way.

However, there are a few outlying grey markers (I am assuming indicating that gps signal was lost and cell tower was used) that appear on the map.

These markers, despite looking ugly, also affect the total distance reading, making it innacurate.

I was wondering how I eliminate these from appearing in my trackme display?

Many thanks,

Catstrat

hey guys,

I just wanted to drop a few lines to let you know that I haven't forgotten you! ;)

The company that acquired TrackMe is still working on other projects, so I haven't got any updates about when I will be supporting the software again.

Sorry about that, but you guys know how this things work...

I'm glad the thread is still active. I hope it recovers the regular activity once I get back to this project. Hopefully not in a long time...

Hi all, i'm having some troubles. In last days seems impossible to get my position usind cellID.

When i try to upload data, it says that cellid number is not found. I'm using all 4 possibilities (google, opencellid etc)

I'm trying in the same places i tried before, nothing new.

I just re-installed the cab.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] turtle2472:
Well, I never use Cell ID so I can't really help you out there. Sorry.

I did notice that it fails to check for updates now. I'm guessing there's some changes in the wind now. I'd love to see an iPhone version since I'm probably going to get myself one in November some time. I'll keep my Tilt2 (Touch Pro 2) but most of my needs will be answered by the iPhone if I can leave TrackMe running while doing other things and the screen off. :) You know, multitasking.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Bonzo:
Issues with speed

I'm having some problems with the recorded speed...

As far as I know, the speed is a part of the NMEA strings received from the GPS module.

This means that ALL software using the same GPS module should report the correct speed, right?

Well, TrackMe doesn't... It mostly reports a too high speed.

I'm not sure why, as I haven't been able to understand how TrackMe finds the speed data.

First, I thought it was a conversion issue, because many of the speeds "looked right" if I read the miles as kilometer.

But it's not a straight 1.6x difference either.

I've tried using many (all?) combinations of metric/imperial measurements in the device and webpage, but none seem to give a correct value...

Anyone else have this problem?

All other GPS software I've used on my HD2 seem to report the correct speed.

For example, if I start TrackMe and Endomondo at the same time, they report two different speeds and average speeds...

And Endomondo reports the accurate speed in the display.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Anyone moved to Android? Don't give up on TrackMe just yet!

Before even moving to Android I started looking for something similar to TrackMe and I found a tool which can do most of the same functions, although it's a much broader tool and useful for a bunch of stuff. It's called Tasker, and it's just gone up on the market after being in beta for a long time. And no, I have no stake in this, I'm just a user.

It's not exactly TrackMe, feature for feature compared to TrackMe, but it's much more than TrackMe in other ways. I have not changed my server at all for the items below, so you could continue to use the server you use today, which personally I like having 18+ months of data in the same place for easy reference. :)

Here's some of what it can do similar to TrackMe, and how I have set up myself.. If anyone is interested, I'll export and post profiles for other people to use. :)

Passive Tracking

Every 10 minutes between 8am and 12 midnight upload the current GPS location to the TrackMe database IF the location has changed. If the location has not changed, but it's been over an hour, upload it anyway.

I have this active on my phone 24/7, it just does it quietly in the background. Worried about battery? Nope, saw zero difference.

Active Tracking

On a loop which executes every 5s, get the current GPS location and upload it to TrackMe. This one requires the GPS to be actively running, running Google Maps for instance will do the trick.

This one is a task you'd explicitly run, how I have it set up is a homescreen widget which pops up a menu to start tracking or stop tracking.

Things that could feasible be done compared to TrackMe functions, but I haven't tried:

Send location to another person

Change tripname (I have mine set to like tasker-YYYY-MM-DD, but would be easy to change, perhaps even easy to make dynamic)

Current limitations (compared to TrackMe)

No heading or speed data (yet, it's in the todo list)

Active tracking requires external program using the GPS

No (easy) way to do rules like only log after X distance, Y heading change, etc (honestly it COULD be done however, once #1 is fixed)

No fencing

The stuff I'm listing is off the top of my head functions which TrackMe provided which I used..

BTW, Tasker can do much more than this, in fact, how I'm using it is quite an edge use case for the things it can do. I basically think of it as a high level (easy to use, GUI, etc) interface to the entire Android API. I suggest anyone interesting in automating about anything in Android check it out, and hope it's useful information for folks moving to Android and looking for options for TrackMe!

Tasker can be found in the market, and his webpage is here: http://tasker.dinglisch.net/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] turtle2472:
Thanks for the heads up. I'm not planning to move to Android though. I really want an iPhone version because I see me moving there from WM first. I'd love to have TrackMe being supported again for free...but as of now it's working for me the way it is. Some instabilities, but I think that's more to do with my Energy ROMs I'm using.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] khaytsus:
Moving from WM to iPhone seems really backwards to me, but I won't argue it beyond that. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] turtle2472:
Yeah, I've been using a Touch for a while and the iPhone 4 with Multitasking is the biggest thing I needed. It is stepping backwards, but then again it would work too. Plus, my wife is an iPhone user so it'd be cool for her to be able to run TrackMe too. :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Good I saw your message.

I just checked it and something is wrong with the database. Hopefully it's not serious. I will contact customer support from the web hosting and I will post any news here.

Thanks for letting us know.

ok, it's up again!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] turtle2472:
Where is the offline data stored until you get back online?

I was running an track and changed the name and now it won't upload it. This first act is holding up all the other offline data being held. What I'd like to do just remove the trip creation that is failing so all the other data can get uploaded. Failing that, just wipe out all offline data and go from here.

I tried to create the new trip about two weeks ago and have traveled out of cell range a few times since. So that's where all the other data has been coming from.

I run my own server and install TrackMe to my microSD card.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jefmcg:

What's going on this development _LEM_? I'm more interested in an iPhone version at this point since I'd love my wife to be able to use it. She loves being able to see where I am and not have to worry about me being late for work etc.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
Hi turtle2472,

I'm glad to see you are still around! The company that acquired TrackMe contacted me like a month ago to keep supporting the product (only support, not development) however at this moment I'm working on a different project so I had to postpone it.

Regarding the iPhone version I just sent them an email asking for the status, so I will let you know as soon as I get some news from them. By the way, I'm not involved on that project so I have no idea how it's going to be!

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] turtle2472:
Oh yeah, I'm still around. I use TrackMe just about everyday too. :) I'm very grateful for the work you've put into. I'm still using the old web viewer though because I haven't seen a good write up for the new one. I'm ok with that though. :)

I'll be cool if they get (are we not able to know who bought the app) an iPhone app done since it supports multitasking now. Then my wife and I can track each other. I look forward to seeing what they say.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _LEM_:
I just got an email from them. They say the iPhone's project has been delayed because they had to focus on other project that was more important at that moment. Sorry about that...

I'm glad you still use TrackMe! I really think TrackMe had a great potential and it could have become something really big. Unfortunately the company that acquired the product preferred to focus resources on the iPhone version and other projects instead of expanding what we already had. I don't blame them at all, and I understand they had other priorities. They told me that they had a new web viewer almost ready a long time ago, but haven't heard anything lately.

I am also afraid that it's kind of late now (GPS applications are now everywhere and big companies are putting a lot of effort on those) so I don't know if TrackMe will keep growing and stay as popular as it was.

Anyway, thanks for being there. I will post here any updates.

Cheers
