Geocoder Setup Issue - Address Only Shows on Click

Hamzaa year ago

Hi everyone,

I've set up the geocoder correctly in Traccar, but I'm encountering an issue where the address only displays when I click "Show Address." I would like the address to be shown automatically without the need for clicking. This setup was working fine in version 5.9.

Here's my configuration:

<entry key='geocoder.enable'>true</entry>
<entry key='geocoder.type'>nominatim</entry>
<entry key='geocoder.url'>http://1xx.2xx.9x.6:8xx/reverse</entry>
<entry key='geocoder.processInvalidPositions'>false</entry>
<entry key='geocoder.onRequest'>false</entry>
<entry key='geocoder.reuseDistance'>10</entry>

Can anyone help me configure Traccar to display the address automatically?

Thanks in advance!

You have to set geocoder.ignorePositions to false.

I've set geocoder.ignorePositions to false, but the issue still persists.

Then you have to investigate what's going on. It could be positions are invalid. Or it could be that you haven't received any new data. Or it could be geocoding error or throttling.
