Summary | 0000788: Error when trying to retreive place name information | ||||
Description | Altough I activated my own account with GeoNames, I still cannot get access to their data when trying to retrieve names etc. I just installed the latest beta release of GeoSetter. | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

I'm also working with the latest Beta version (3.4.22) with an own GeoNames Account. I have no problems receiving data from GeoNames. Do you get an error message? Or do you get a timeout? |
|
I get the eror message: "user account not enabled to use the free webservice. (etc)" When I go to the geonames site I am logged in. What should I do more? I must be missing something, obviously. One of the fields is filled out with one of my email addresses, nothing else. Seeing that I am logged in, I do not see what else to do. PS. I seem to have 2 accounts at geonames. Could that be the reason it doesn't work? |
|
You can read the solution in the error message itself :-) "Please enable it on your account page: http://www.geonames.org/manageaccount" Login at GeoNames and change to the URL above. Here you can activate your account for the free web services. |

Thanks! I am sort of blind - a special form of dyslexia! I completely missed the line saying that I had to activate teh account. Must be my advanced age... It works now. |
