SPOTSLITE problem

Old Reflector

Hi, I’m having a problem self spotting - been going on for a couple of weeks now. First noticed it 8th Feb.

Getting the following error message when trying to add a spot:-

error Table sotawatch.sotausers doesn’t exist
query was SELECT userlevel FROM sotausers WHERE callsign = G8HXE etc…

Nothing has changed on my phone, and it always worked before, so what’s going wrong ?
Have I missed anything ?

Hi keith - since spotlite changed I can`t use the self spot facility even though I have copied the URL perfectly to my phone - I can however still look at spots.

Steve,

One that confused me for a while was that the URL is totally case-sensitive. There are some capitals in the URLs, and your phone must have these exactly right, or the page won’t load.

Have you tried that?

Have tried every combination Tom for about 3 weeks, I admit Im pretty dumb when it comes to mobiles, but I had the old system working so Im at a loss why the new one wont work.

Steve I’ll be down at the Blackpool Rally so if you haven’t got it going by then I’ll have a look at it for you.

The page comes up ok on the phone - it just won’t take the info for the spot.

Where is the latest URL ? - just so I can check mine is correct.

It looks like you`ve cracked it Keith - can you post the url your using here (minus password :wink: as my “phone a spot service” has been kyboshed.

Don’t forget the hyphen in the summit reference Keith - this will then enable the hyperlink to work on the spots page.

Steve,

I have fixed it… I didn’t realise there was a new version of spotlite.

I have set up the following bookmark on the phone:-

http://www.sota.org.uk/Spotlite/displayAlerts

and then used “add alert” to set up a new alert…

Lo and behold it works !!!

http://www.sota.org.uk/Spotlite/displaySpots

allows me to “add a spot” as well.

Keith.
