Description:
A module that will use a taxonomy containing geocache names (GCXXXX) or tracking (TBXXXX) and will auto-add a list of links to the node in page view linking to geocaching.com. It will also provide a filter [GCXXXX] to provide titled links from the taxonomy within a post.
Still working on the docs and getting svn updates to appear here automatically.

Geocaching module
Great to hear that you have most of the module working already! I have set up the nex taxonomy and have everything ready on my site for when it is finished.

Actually - I think it is ready
I may be working under a misunderstanding. The admin stuff I expected to appear because I was logged in as user number 1. When I explicitly gave that user a role with the administer geocaching - the admin came up.
Feel free to try it :)
I tried the module but there

I think there are more but, I haven't recorded them all. These have appeared on various nodes at various times. I'll disable/uninstall the module for now...

I'll try it but, I can't
I'll try it but, I can't seem to get the file to unzip properly. Tried in both WIndows and Linux....

Odd - just unzipped it here
It's a gzipped tar file. I do sometimes have an issue with the web server gzipping or not on download (not sure why).
On linux - try a
file geocaching.5.x-1.x-dev.tar.gzIf it says its gzipped then you should be able to extract with
tar zxvf geocaching.5.x-1.x-dev.tar.gzIf it says it is a tar try
tar xvf geocaching.5.x-1.x-dev.tar.gzIt may be that the download has been de-gzipped without changing the filename.
This does not look like a
This does not look like a tar archive
Skipping to next header
Error exit delayed from previous errors
This happened with both tar zxvf and xvd
I changed the filename to just geocaching and it had the same results
When I did the file command it said:
gzip compressed data from Unix
Weird
I'll see if I can find a different decompression utility
Graphically it will open the file and say that it is a gzip file, then inside that there will be another file and it will say it is a tar, and then I can see the files, but, when I go to extract them it says that the temp files for the file doesn't exist etc....
Try this
If file says it is gzipped compressed data - try the following
1) Name the file geocaching.tar.gz
2) Run
gzip -d geocaching.tar.gz3) This should have created a geocaching.tar file. On this run
tar xvf geocaching.tarI have only mac and linux here - and this works on both of them on the downloaded file - just checked.
Oh - word of warning - there's no directory structure in the archive - better do the extract in a directory called geocaching - I'll fix that at some point.
Ran gzip -d
Ran gzip -d successfully
tried tar xvf and it didn't work
Just out of curiosity I tried tar zxvf and THAT worked. Weird. I guess the file thought it was double gzipped or something.
Anyway, thank you so much for all of your help. Now my Geocaching site will actually have some element of geocaching in it!
God Bless,
Chris
