Cache not found

I've scanned the forums but can't find a resolution. I've installed the latest version, checked all the settings I can see need to be checked, but get "Cache not found" when trying to open one. One additional quirk is that when I Download All Caches, I get lots of data, but always get "0 cache(s) downloaded".

I'm a windows mobile developer, and am happy to help any way I can.

I opened the XML file for the cache list, and it looks reasonable (except the xml isn't valid, multiple root elements). The content for one of the elements is:

<GCz_cache_list>

<GCz_idx>1</GCz_idx>

<GCz_compass>4</GCz_compass>

<GCz_compass_str>SE</GCz_compass_str>

<GCz_distance>0.2mi</GCz_distance>

<GCz_myCache>0</GCz_myCache>

<GCz_cache_type>1</GCz_cache_type>

<GCz_cache_type_str>2</GCz_cache_type_str>

<GCz_member_only>0</GCz_member_only>

<GCz_cache_size>3</GCz_cache_size>

<GCz_placed></GCz_placed>

<GCz_placed_new>0</GCz_placed_new>

<GCz_guid>f464d186-81ee-40c1-ab0c-b0b53783f3be</GCz_guid>

<GCz_cache_title>Narnia- Voyage of the Dawn Treader</GCz_cache_title>

<GCz_cache_code>GC1N0GP</GCz_cache_code>

<GCz_byWhom>Nycdancerboi, Stargazer21, Aceofspays</GCz_byWhom>

<GCz_region>Texas</GCz_region>

<GCz_last_found>20 Sep 10</GCz_last_found>

<GCz_cid>1138530</GCz_cid>

<GCz_latitude></GCz_latitude>

<GCz_longitude></GCz_longitude>

<GCz_difficulty>2</GCz_difficulty>

<GCz_terrain>4.5</GCz_terrain>

<GCz_owner_id>000000</GCz_owner_id>

</GCz_cache_list>

Latitude and Longitude are blank.

There is a folder for the cache, and an IDX file in it, with this same content.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
Sounds like it is time for a secret agent man post!

Anyway, for now here goes:

For those of you having trouble, here is how it is done.

1)make sure that you have V.50

2)Download the .zip of V.52 (available here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9219294&postcount=4426)

3)Unzip. Put the .exe file of V.52 (that was in the .zip files) in your GCzII folder. It will ask about overwriting the existing file. Select "Yes".

4)Done.

Remember when asking for help to post your version number. Saying "the latest version" does no one any good. All that says is that you think it is the latest version, but since you are having issues, that is quite likely the issue.

You just need to un-zip the V.52 file, and move that .exe file into your GCzII folder.

These two updates are kind of like HOT fixes. Recently Tom has thrown together a fix as quick as he can and just posted the .exe files. Later, after working some bugs out etc. he then sets it up for AppToDate.

You said " the latest version". What version is it? .52 is the current version. Your problem sounds like V.50.

Also, the blank Lat and Long have been determined to be a result of a Basic Membership. The easiest fix for that is to upgrade to a Premium Membership.

Can any of the regulars test the "More than 6 trackables = Log Failur" error on v.52? I only have 6 trackables right now, so will have to try to find another one before I can test it out.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wizardks:
Thanks for the hard work

Thanks to developer for the hard work and time spent to fix things.

I noticed that found caches are not showing up after applying the .52 hot fix. This is handy for me because I can stay in sync with my caching partner.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fialcaol:
Thanks to developer for the hard work.

You are the men!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
@ Titus:

Thanks for posting an interim message.

I'll post a new update post later today. I'm out of the office and can't manage that post via my phone! :eek
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Look at the prior post and post back if you're still having issues.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Look at the 2nd post prior to this one. Copy the GCzII.exe update over the GCzII.exe in your existing installation.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Try .52 and see if that's any better.

If you're still getting the error, post back. What country are you in? What language is your operating system using? Are you using a GCzII skin?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Mr. Developer, what do you consider the "latest version"? Can you please post the version number?

Are you a Geocaching Premium Member? There are some limitations when it comes to downloading data pertaining to lists if you are a Basic Member.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Enzomatrx:
seconded! this program is amazing!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AngusCS:
Thanks are due

Thankyou. Works like a dream. Keep up the good work

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraxler:
Thank You

Version 51 works great! Thank you!:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Did you mean 52? 51 is broken . . logs postings fail.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
Too many trackables in inventory

I just did a test with version .52. With 6 items in my inventor, I got the "log submission fail" error. After moving one to my collection (now with 5 in inventory), GCzII submitted the log just fine. I then moved the trackable back to inventory (not with 6 in inventory), and again got the "log submission fail" error.

Just to make sure that the issue wasn't cause by the specific trackable that I had moved, I moved a different trackable to my collection (now with 5 in inventory). Again, I was able to submit a log.

So I would say that the bug has been confirmed as
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] drounds:
Having the same problem. Also cannot post logs directly from the app.

Checked App-to-date and no new version of GCZii is available yet.

DrRounds
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
App to date won't update for interim releases. You'll need to update manually.

What version are you using? Please don't say "the latest", post the number.

Have you read back through the last several pages? What you posting suggests that you are NOT using the current version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Based on your testing, I just updated the last summary post to change the max from "6" to "5".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Paulloft:
Just to clarify. My problem is related to cache lists generated from a GPX export from GSAK.

Cache lists generated within GCzii are working fine.

Have you read back a few pages and found the latest exe file posted by Tom which will take your installation to v. 52 ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cchapman:
I just love reading this thread. I don't know how many people won't go back at least about 3 pages and read. It's not like they need to read all 446 pages to get it figured out.

Thanks to Paulloft, SecretAgentMan and the other regular posters in here for at least trying to keep people informed. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
Thanks! Sometimes it gets tiring...

PS, this is my 200th post. Yah! (and not all in this thread; I have actualy posted in a few different threads)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WNuss:
Hi folks

Honestly, this is the first time, I actively join a forum.

I tried all possible things, to get the GCZII running on my HTC HD MINI (Photon). The newest version v0.2.35.51 finally solved my "Cache not found" problem.

Thanks a lot Tom or who ever worked on this release.

Stefan
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
That is not the latest version. the latest version is v0.2.35.52. That one will solve the "Log Submission Failure" problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sammy84:
I using the Windows Mobile 5 German.

I have no GCz Skin installed jet.

I have try .52 but... the error is still there.

Can i set up the Character?

Thanks for help.

What is your issue?

Have you checked the option "Geocoding Settings"?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eggeretter:
Hallo

wie kann ich die exe ersetzen, damit ich es auf mei htc hd2 instalieren kann.

Danke für die Hilfe
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AngusCS:
My two cents

Ditto. This is a fantastic thread dedicated to a fantastic piece of coding.

I have found it exceptionally easy to make the program work, and am amazed at how often people post without bothering to read back a couple of pages.

Might I suggest a Wiki (with a link at the top of the page). You can have the standard post and a set of known bugs and you might also have links to the posts with the latest version and any interim releases. On another forum we have a Wiki linked from the top of every page.

Perhaps the first Post (or second) could be modified by Gech on each occasion he posts a new version and could also include a link to a Wiki and the Forum and a copy of the standard post and we just ask people to look at that post?

There are known issues/bugs, but so what they are far outweighed by the fact this is the best WinMo Geocaching App known to man (and I do know that I am lucky that English is my native tongue).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AngusCS:
I entered 69117 in the postalcode field and was returned the screen you will see in the attached file (Screen01).

I then clicked on the list name and received the list of caches shown in the second file (Screen02).

Can you confirm if you can get to the actual list of caches and if the text is readable there?

If you cannot get to the list can you then confirm you have followed every step described in this post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9230561&postcount=4443) to the letter....?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mmaximaal:
Thanks,

The problem with no cache found is solved with version 52.

Thanks for this update
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
AngusCS

Why dont you check the option

Geocoding Settings that all I need to know for this case to me.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
The reason why I neeed to know Geocoding Settings, if it is for JAPANESE setting. It might not be readable.

To compare the settings it will be hint for this issue.

Thx

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
A wiki would be a good idea. I briefly considered starting one, but they're an awful lot of work. Even though wiki's are built by contributors, it still has to be managed to stay organized.

Are you volunteering? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Tom replied to you (I think) in #4468 and #4469. He posts from his phone a lot and it's hard to quote a post. Post your geocoding settings so Tom has an idea what they're set to.

Also, going into your Windows Mobile control panel (System) and look at your regional settings. Try changing your regional setting to United States (English) to see if that helps.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RoyceMcKnight:
I too had the "cache not found" issue on my Touch Diamond (german) with the latest version of gczii (0.2.35.52).

I made sure geocaching.com was set to english

I deleted everything in the cache db folder

Nothing helped, so i uninstalled the german skin of gczii. This finally solved my problem.

Maybe this is helpful to someone.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] toter_hund:
Am besten vom PC aus auf dein HD2 zugreifen - Programmordner suchen in dem dein GczII installiert ist - da gibt es bereits eine gleichnamige exe - exe überschreiben et voilá (das dein gczII auf dem HD2 dabei nicht an sein sollte ist denk ich mal klar)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] HansiHusten:
I removed the german skin pack and deleted all files in the cache folder but I still get "cache not found". Hmm....

Ahhhhhhhh I missed the .52 version. Now working great as always. Best Geocaching tool on earth!! ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] calibrator:
I can not find - where download version 52 fot HTC HD2 ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Hellnite:
Does anyone Know how to install the new gczII.exe file on My htc touch mp6900 running WM 6.1. Is It possible? Or must I use a .cab file as I have in the past. I am fairly new at all of this. :confused: Any help with this would be great!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
The update is in a zip file. Download it to your computer and extract the .exe from the zip. Copy the extracted .exe to your phone. The easiest way is to just copy it to your storage card using your computer.

Then, using the file explorer on your phone, copy the .exe from the storage card to the GCz program files folder and overwrite the existing file.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Hellnite:
never mind , after posting I saw the most recent post and followed the steps and figured it out, Thanks to everyone! A big thanks to Tomohiro for emailing me with this link for the update!:)

NEEDS MAINTENANCE Bug Report

Version _52 on HTC Touch Pro 2

Was able to log finds today with this version.

However I also needed to log a NEEDS MAINTENANCE report for one of the caches I found and I was presented with the fault in the attached screen grab.

Also, I have noticed that its possible to start the camera from within GCzII, but is it possible to upload photos to the cache finds aswell? Cant figure it out myself.

Please see attachement for fault report code.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
How many trackables did you have in your inventory when you tried to post the NM log? How many when you were able to submit the Found logs?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ispartacus75:
One trackable in both cases.

Cache #1

I was able to retrieve a trackable, and drop another as well as log the cache.

Cache #2

I was able to log the cache with 1 trackable in inventory

Cache #3

I was able to log the cache with 1 trackable in inventory

Cache #4

I was able to log the cache with 1 trackable in inventory

I was not able to log a NM report.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
Hmm.. Don't know. I can't test it because I have too many trackables in my inventory, resulting in the "Log Submission Failur" error. Maybe someone else can test it out.

Htc hd 2 gcz .52

Dear Tom, dear Forum,

first of all a great thanks for the well working and free tool.

I actually loaded the newest version (.52) on my HTC HD 2 and like announced I got all my caches in the area (nearby serach).

I can download all caches, but with the new version I am not able to "touch" the cache i want to see.

If i press "return" in my virtual keyboard GCZII loads the cache, but i can not "touch" it anymore.

Is there a reason or a fix for my problem?

With best thanks and regards

Primex - Germany
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
If you touch and hold a cache in a list, do you even get the context menu?

Maybe try recalibrating your alignment in Windows. (Settings, System, Screen, Alignment tab)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Primex:
Everything else is touchable, I dont think it is a calibration-thing.

If I touch and hold the cache windows makes this circle around my finger --> indicates a working calibration.

By the way, I can touch the cache but it isnt opening , maybe that is a better explanation.

A friend of me (HTC but not HD2) has the same problem.

Are there any other HTC user with this failure?

We just replaced the .50 exe with the new .52 exe direct in our (since that well working) device.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mundoceleste:
Genau das war es bei mir. Hatte 6 Trackables im Inventar und konnte keine logs hochladen. 5 Trackables ins Inventar verschoben und schon klappte es mit dem loggen.

Danke!

Just tried on my HTC Touch Diamond, and it works too. I thought that perhaps it might depend on the Windows version, seeing someone above was using 6.5, but I have a custom ROM on my Diamond with WinMo 6.5 and it's still OK.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Andreha:
Hi all.

Just a short one to say "thank you" to all users here and especially to Tom:

You are much faster in solving problems than me facing them! :)

Until Now 18 I had no problem using GZCII 2.35.50 .

Yesterday I went out with my wife to get some caches and had some "cache not found" messages, which surprised me because it did not happen to all caches, but most of them.

Right now I wanted to see whether this issue was to blame to my GPRS provider or if some other cachers would have problems like me too.... and as I enter the Forum, I can see that my problem already has been solved!

Thank you so much for that great tool and great support!!!

Andre
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Andreha:
I just did the update, but I still encountered an error accessing "01_login" .

I had to delete HTTP_Log also before beeing able to use gczii again.

Now it works fine. :-)

What a mystery! Never mind, I can live with this. Thanks ,SecretAgentMan, for the trick of pressing the "return" in the virtual keyboard ;)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cchapman:
Thanks for this great app for the last 10 months, but I just switched to and Android phone. So far I love it, a lot better than my WM phone. I had three different Blackberries over the years, and they were pretty good. I had the WM phone for about 10 months and I honestly hated it most of the time. In the last 8 hours, the Android platform has been by far the best of all of them.

Anyway, thanks again everyone and keep up the great work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
I do not aggree! I just installed Android as a duel boot on my WM phone. It is defiantly fun, And I love google maps on it. The market place is cool. But in the end, it seems like a toy. Very gimmicky and no real way to interact with the OS. (eg, have you tried bluetooth GPS? What is ip wirh uninstalling apps? Some from Settings>applications, and some from the market...)

Maybe you love it so much because of the new more powerful hardware? WM seems a bit more of a "get it done" OS, and less of a ditsy blond.

From the main GCzII screen, go to Menu, Option, Geocoding Settings. Either post a screen shot of what is there (drag to the right so we see what comes after the "?") OR post the settings that you have there (all 4 lines).

Nique

First time user of the forum so I apologize in advance if its been answered already.

I have been a loyal GCZ and GCZII user almost since the beginning. I always have been able to get the update immediately from NIQUE but as of a minute ago the version is outdated. I found this forum and found version 52 here.

I had to install it as directed on my HTC Touch WM 6.1 by manually placing the exe file in the GCZ folder.

So my question (s) are:

Why the new (and complicated) method of installing the program?

Will it ever be available in a .cab format on Nique again?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kenlaur:

Forgot to mention that my install of V52 seems to work great.

Hi There,

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
Hi

I compared the "Geocoding Settings".

The result showed as expected.

See pics.

So, could you attach the XML file under GCz folder.

\HTTP_Log\00_Geocoding.xml

thanks

tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
It's not a new method, actually. When GCz is updated, Tom will usually post "interim" releases by just posting the .exe instead of a new cab. I'm not totally sure of his thought processes, but I think that if he feels the fix still has bugs, he just posts the executable to at least get SOME fixed features out there.

A new version will eventually be posted to the web site as a cab.

Not all cache-informations appear

Hello from Germany, and here my first post.

Previously, Thanks for all the helps

I´m

using GC with English language,

using Version 0.2.35.52,

using a T-Mobile MDA III with WM 6.1,

not using german-skin,

deleted all files in Cache_DB and Cache_List

Now my problem: After downloading a cache list, saving it and dowload all caches

they are shown with the head-entries like Name,GC-Code, Size of Cache, Yellow Folder with green Point, Hidden-Date, D and T, Koords............

What I saw in V50 and what I miss now are the additional Informations like Cache-Description, Hints, Logs, Fotos.......

I didn`t log a cache yet, so there should not be an entry in the fieldnotes.txt.

When I touch the cache in the list, the second menu appears.

Am I doing something wrong?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] khaytsus:
There are 4-5 apps for managing bluetooth GPSes, Bluetooth GPS Provider is free and works excellently. But no, Android doesn't support it directly yet.

What's up with uninstalling apps? You can't uninstall apps in the ROM (directly), but you can uninstall anything you installed. If you installed them via the Market, sure you can remove them there. If you "sideloaded" them, then you can remove them from the Applications list. You can remove ANY user-installed application from the Applications list. And most launchers you can drag the app icon to the Trashcan for a few seconds and uninstall.. It's all doing the exact same thing, and unlike WM, actually cleans up all stuff the app left behind.

Not trying to sell you on Android here, but don't spread FUD. I still miss GcZII a bit, but with Bluetooth GPS Provider to use my good ole Holux 236 and GeOrg in Android I'm happy as can be geocaching. Plus Backcountry Navigator for topo maps, and WhereYouGo for (ANNOYING) WhereIGo caches.. And navigating to a cache in 2 taps using Google Navigator... Good stuff.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
If I understand you correctly, you are saying that you can display a cache LIST correctly, but when you try to display a cache PAGE from the list, it doesn't work. When you touch an entry in the list, the cache page doesn't open . . . instead you get a second menu.

Does the "second menu" you are seeing contain items like "Sort by Distance from this Cache", "Find nearby this Cache", "Add to Favorites", etc? If so, that is the menu you should see when you touch AND HOLD an item in a list. You ought to be able to touch an item in the list and get the individual cache page.

I don't have an answer for you. Tom will have to consider this one. I don't think anyone has reported your exact issue, but others have reported issues with trying to open cache pages by touching an item in a list. There may be some issue in .52 that is causing your issue, and theirs.

Post back with what that "second menu" looks like. Hopefully we can get this issue solved.
