Google Earth Module not working
linuxpimp - May 2, 2007 - 16:15
Hi all
I followed instructions in the REAME file, seemed pretty straight forward, however, i'm receiving the following errors:
When i click on the "generate Google Earth map" link in the admin Google Earth page i get:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: geoip_open() in $MY_FULL_PATH/modules/google_earth/google_earth.module on line 143"
I also see many errors on the lines of:
"warning: readfile($site_path/files/google_earth/google_earth.kml) [function.readfile]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in $site_path/modules/google_earth/google_earth.module on line 52."
Both the the geoipcity.inc and GeoLiteCity.dat files are in my Drupal root dir.
Thanks

hello :) i solved this by
hello :)
i solved this by doing it this way:
download geoipregionvars.php and geoip.inc from maxmind found here: http://www.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/php/
put them in the same folder as geocityip.inc
then you gotta be careful when you add the paths..
to get it to work i had to clear all cookies. i put all files in the files folder and made a subfolder for the data. im not sure its a good idea to be able to reach it from the web, but i just had to do it to get it to work.. then in geoip paths i entered:
files/geoip/GeoLiteCity.dat
and
files/geoip/geoipcity.inc
then i made the files/google_earth/google_earth.kml file so it existed.. i dunno if i had to do that, but i did just to be sure..
also you gotta enable the accesslog, or else the program got nuthn to pull data to make the map from :)

I had a similar problem
I had a similar problem using the geopip.dat.
Fixed problem by using GeoLiteCity.dat instead and note that I also followed MrM instructions above.
Works good now. Is there a way to embed the map into a page, or is it only viewable from Google Earth client ?
