'Find caches along route' error

Hi,

 

I seem to be running into a problem when attempting to upload a route that I want to find caches along. The error displayed is:

If it helps, I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.9 under Windows, though I am seeing the same problem under Linux, so suspect it's likely a backend issue. Could someone check into this? Thanks!

It might be helpful if you post several lines of the text of your gpx or kml route file.

Make sure your routes in the GPX file have numbers and names associated with them. Some software creates routes without unique identifiers, which (IIRC) causes the route upload on the site to barf.
