I appear to have geographic_admin up and running, and I can see the maps rendering in the admin interface.

But I have no map in databrowse. "World Borders" shows all the attributes for a country, but the "Select Feature to See Geometry" listbox is empty, and there is no map to the right of this control like there is in the screenshots.

Any suggestions on how I can debug this? The respective versions of geographic_admin and django are shown below.

arcato.us,

Glad you've got the admin maps working. For the databrowse maps to work you must maintain the name geometry for your !GeoDjango field in the admin.

If you have not changed the name of this field in your models, then the next step to debug would be to load up firebug in mozilla firefox 2 or 3 and check for javascript errors.

I'd happily accept patches for the field name issue, as this geodatabrowse app should ideally provide the flexibly to change the !GeoDjango field.

Strange, I tried again and saw the map once or twice -- seemingly on the first invocation, but that behavior wasn't consistent.

I haven't changed the geometry column, and Firebug shows no errors. Behavior is the same on both Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer...

Arcatos.us,

You 'saw the map'? That is pretty odd that it could appear unpredicatably and you would still not see javascript errors. You must be changing some of your settings.

Really, I can imagine only two main things could be going on:

1) the custom templates for the databrowse are not being found and loaded so that only the WKT of the geometry field is being displayed and therefore NO javascript is being called. This will be obvious because the site name will not say Geographic Databrowse. You need to make sure that these templates are being loaded: http://geodjango-basic- apps.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/projects/geographic_admin/templates/databrowse/

2) The custom templates are found and there are javascript errors you should be able to see in firebug that will point to the syntax problem or some other loading problem which is preventing the OpenLayer js to be called as well as the custom js in: http://geodjango-basic- apps.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/projects/geographic_admin/templates/databrowse/object_detail.html

Arcatos,

I'd like to resolve this issue. Any progress on figuring out what's wrong with your installation?

Closing this since it seemed like an isolated, non-replicable issue
