+Eurastus Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 I've been receiving my Pocket Search results now for over a week or so without problem. This morning, I find three of them in my in-box as usual, save them out, as usual, but when I try and open them in EasyGPS, it gives me the following error: "An Unexpected Error Occurred! A report of this error has been written to C:Program FilesEasyGPSEasyGPS_Message_Log.txt. Please visit our support website at http://www.easygps.com/support.asp for assistance." The referenced log isn't very helpful, but I can send it, and one of the smaller query results if that will help. I opened the .loc file in a text editor and could see no obvious problems. Other .loc files, including search results from previous days, seem to import fine. Any ideas? Link to comment
+Eurastus Posted July 25, 2002 Author Share Posted July 25, 2002 I opened them up in a more capable editor and found three characters at the very beginning of all three problem .loc files...here's the first line of each file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> When I delete the first three characters, all three .loc files open right up. Strange, huh? Link to comment
+Markwell Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 Same thing happened to me... Mine didn't have those characters. I just sent a message to Topografix and Geocaching. Sounds like a Geocaching problem, not a Topografix one. Markwell Chicago Geocachers Link to comment
Jeremy Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 I added some encoding which was apparently the problem. I'm resending the files for today. Jeremy Jeremy Irish Groundspeak - The Language of Location Link to comment
+Richard-A Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 I had the same problem this morning and following your advice I opened up the files in a good quality text editor and removed the offending characters and it worked. Well done! Link to comment
