Black spaces

[Samamax]

Hi,
even though I have updated AIRAC, *openflightmap the map image disappears and it remain black spaces. Why? Thanks and good day.

The map cache needs to be cleared in order for the new map tiles to be loaded. You can do this in LittleNavmap directly or remove the cached files manually.

In LittleNavmap:
Go to: Tools -> Options -> Cache and Files, then click on "Clear Disk Cache".

Manually:
Remove all contents in the following dir and restart LittleNavmap:
%localappdata%\.marble\data\maps\earth\openflightmaps

Hi,

similar problem here: AIRAC Cycle 2203 rev.1, latest LNM, latest LNMOFMTheme, all installed according to instructions. Only black maps where they shouldn't (e.g. around EDDS, as shown in the screenshot)

@rippy65 please report if you have you done what @AmbitiousPilots suggested.

sure. Cache cleared before that screenshot.

Works fine here (LittleNavmap v2.6.18, LittleNavmapOFMTheme v1.0.14):

Glaubischo :) ...I've setup OFMTheme on 3 different boxes - always and everywhere black...I must be doing something wrong - but what? Are there any win11 firewall exceptions necessary?

[AmbitiousPilots]

Yes, when the cache is cleared and it's still not loading the map tiles it might indeed be a firewall blocking the traffic. Make sure to allow network access for LittleNavmap. The map tiles are loaded from the following domain, so try to white list it when possible:

Thx - I'll try that shortly. Meanwhile I tried an LNM/OFMtheme install on another laptop (I have a lot here... ;) ) - and there OFM showed up "out of the box")...will have to check the different install processes for 100% consistency.

I'll report here ASAP.

I cleared the cache from the disk and disabled antivirus and firewall. I'm sorry the problem remains

I'd recommend to clear the cache manually from the disk. The clear cache command in LNM uses the Marble widget function which takes some time running in the background.

Clearing manually (close LNM before) also allows you to keep other cached map files like OpenStreetMap.

Ok...I have OFMTheme now up and running (=showing) on the FS Computer aswell as on different networked machines.

On all FAILED setups there was a coincidence: I had LNM installed in my /username/documents folder, which was synced by MS OneDrive over the internet with all my boxes inside my private network.

So I had an idea: Maybe the fact that OneDrive syncs my /documents folder gave issues... anyway : I deleted all LNM folders (also Username/AppData/Local/.marble AND Username/Appdata/Roaming/ABarthel) and did a fresh LNM install inside a new dir D:/FSData (which is not synced by OneDrive). Voila... - THAT worked. OFMTheme (aswell as all others...) is showing up perfectly.

Phew. ;)

Thanks to all who tried to help!

Isn't there another solution? The black spaces remained!

To clear the cache in .maple isn't the solution. How to do?
