Hello,

The map module is awesome (v1.0.9).  However, I am having a problem with the Geo Locator.  I read all the documentation, watched the demos, and attempted five different Google keys but none are able to fill in the LAT and LONG for any address that I put in the table or when I do an adhoc "Find Address" request.  I get the "Sorry, we are unable to locate a point for that address.  Please try again".

The reason why I tried so many google keys is for different guesses as to the URL I should declare.
(Note that I have censored my website address here by simply putting "mywebsite.com")
 - I tried the main one:  http://www.mywebsite].com
 - I tried a variation of it:   mywebsite.com
 - I tried the address of the SQL Server (I'm using GoDaddy)  http://secureserver.net
 - I tried a subnet of the SQL Server address: http://pxmssqladmin.secureserver.net
 - And finally, I tried the only other thing I could thing of:  http://dotnetnuke.com

So now I have a lot of google keys and none seem to get the job done.  I was sure to have each key attempted in the Geo Locator section when I was testing, but none worked.  This really is a great tool and I am excited about what it can do, but I just can't seem to get over this hump.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Were you able to figure this out? I am having the same exact problem with the map module. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Verify that there are no carriage returns in the address, the Google Geocoder doesn't understand the line breaks. Is this possibly the issue?

There is no chance for carriage returns because i was only using the forms provided for testing.  I used the form off of the locator page that gives lines to fill in an address to get the lat/long. I also put in an address (with no returns) that had no luck either.  Just trying the basics before i jump in and can't seem to get it to work.  Thanks for the reply, any other thoughts or debug hints?

Are you sure you have entered your Google License Key in both the Interface and Geo Locator screens. I forgot to do the Geo Locator screen and was having the same problem.
