Problem adding airports

[Paul Defaire]

Hey everyone,

I just logged in to my admin panel to add a new hub, filled in the icao (eggp) and clicked lookup, but nothing is happening. It just says "Fetching airport data.." - Is the lookup service down (wherever that is)?

Our website is hosted by fivedev, so it's not a local server issue either..

You can manually add it. Here is the info:

ICAO: EGGP

Airport Name: Liverpool John Lennon Airport

Country Name: United Kingdom

Latitude: 53.2001

Longitude: -2.5059

If you want the airport diagram in pdf format, here is the link (Click)

Yeah I did add it manually, but it's just a bit of a bummer now that I'm about to add a bunch of destination airports as well.. >_<

It is broken for me too, maybe it is the geonames server that is down? Is there another server we can fetch the data? it can be changed in the local config file.

just change the server in the localconfig and it schould be fine i think

same is happening with me after 4-5 minutes it is giving me the result ....

[Paul Defaire]

Change it to what? o.O

[joeri]

there schould be info on it to change it to the phpvms server or look in the app config and copy it over

[Alex]

clear the cache then change the airport look up server to the following in your localconfig

Config::Set('AIRPORT_LOOKUP_SERVER', 'http://api.phpvms.net'); 

if the airport look up server part isnt in your localconfig, it is in your app config. Copy it into your localconfig.

Its working again once changed.
