Hi slydey, the instructions in README.txt should probably become more detailed in time. Note that if you see the 'loading indicator' the mapbuilder library is probably installed correctly. The problem may be in the context node you are referencing.
I added a demo context document in the package, and included an example input for a config document (see attached image and http://drupal.org/node/112157).
You may also add to this issue which values you use for the fields in the context/config nodes you tested with.

You could have a look at the page source of your config node. It should have a

tag in the head section containing something like (in your case, assuming you have a base_path of /drupal): // URL of Mapbuilder configuration file. var mbConfigUrl="/drupal/mapbuilder/config/14"; var baseDir="/drupal/modules/mapbuilder/mapbuilder-src/lib"; Looking at your alert message you seem to have a base_path of / instead of /drupal/. I wonder if the clean url's setting is of influence? You could try to enable it; what is required is:
  • enable mod_rewrite in Apache and give your directory the setting 'AllowOverride all'; restart Apache
  • edit the rewrite directory in .htaccess; uncomment the RewriteBase line and edit it if needed (perhaps to / ?)
Another thing is the access control (see admin/user/access). When looking at a config node anonymously, I get the same alert as you because anonymous users have no 'access mapconfig' rights. I hope this helps.
