map manager - add point gives "Unable to save data" error

[uptoeleven]

hello

I am doing what I imagine to be the right process for adding points to a map:

1.) Enter map manager
2.) Select map
3.) Click Add a point
4.) Enter the name of the point then click Submit
5.) See  "Unable to save data" error and wonder what caused it.

Any ideas? Can anyone help? Is this module now deprecated?

more info - the error seems to be a generic one, this from lang/en_US.php

Code: Select all

$lang['error_addmap'] = 'Unable to save data';
$lang['error_addpoint'] = 'Unable to save data';
$lang['error_changemapimage'] = 'Unable to save data';
$lang['error_changemapname'] = 'Unable to save data';
$lang['error_changemappointimage'] = 'Unable to save data';
$lang['error_changepointimage'] = 'Unable to save data';
$lang['error_default'] = 'Unable to read map data';
$lang['error_deletemap'] = 'Unable to delete data';
$lang['error_deletepoint'] = 'Unable to delete data';
$lang['error_nonamegiven'] = 'It is mandatory to guve a name';
$lang['error_resetpointimage'] = 'Unable to delete data';

looking up error_addpoint leads to action.addpoint.php. It includes map.classes.php to define most of the functions in there.

I can do an imagemap by hand but I was rather hoping there'd be a module that could do it for me 

any ideas?

I did my map by hand in the end. I really should go in there, change the source code and send it in for submission to SVN but am too busy working

Thanks for the tip though

This worked for me. Thanks!
