After digging a little deeper it looks like you need ~/.openBmap/ containing config file locator.conf and sqlite cell database cell.db. I can't see any bootstrap code if these aren't provided by the package, but I may have missed something. You might find something useful in /var/log/openbmap-locator.log. Once it is running it will try to update the cell database from http://openbmap.ev-en.org/cell1.db if it's more than a week since the last successful update. _______________________________________________ Shr-User mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shr-project.org/mailman/listinfo/shr-user
