Subject: [Kflog-user] Invalid M_064[19-23].kfl files?
Message-ID: <4F14AC62.7050602@veppel.net>

Hey there,

Not sure but I think something might be fishy with some M_*.kfl map 
tiles. The program starts to behave slightly erratic and spits out quite 
a lot of these warning messages regarding invalid files.

Both, svn trunk and tags/release 4.6.0 are affected. I see the map in 
Europe (BW and so on) fine but when I scroll over to Australia (NSW / 
East Coast), the M files seem to be invalid.

Can you confirm that the tiles should be valid? I tried both, download 
it manually and automatically.

Disabling automated download and deleting the M_* files allows me to 
properly show my flights.

Thanks!
Ratko

Hi Ratko,

That's non-existent map files. Server sends back an html-"404", kflog
tells you that it doesn't think a web page is a map file. You should be
able to safely ignore those warnings, since all of them are empty ocean.

I agree the best way of handling them would be to actually create empty
map tiles and thus cover the whole planet. Would be cleaner, and empty
map tiles are smaller than those html-errors, too.

Cheers,

    Hendrik
