Kaya,
I ran into the exact same issues - but only in the lab with NAT'd IP's.
I installed the exact same setup on my production and it read just fine. That having been said, if the device does not specify its physical location in SNMP configs on the polled device, then the location will not work period end of story as it goes... I noticed it only does this on connections over MPLS connections to an ISP. If you have a non-mpls connection to the provider, than you will not see this issue.
Still not sure why this is...I can guess, but I would rather not get into that at this point in time.
Oh yeah - we need a new string for RANCID integration on CentOS7. Due to the install directory CentOS installs in, it makes integrating Rancid a little hairy.

Ok this is interesting!
I figured out where I end up.... just off the coast off West
Africa..... The closest places being Luanda and Congo?
However, the actual Green Location Tag is showing in the North
Atlantic just west of Portugal.
It might be something to do with the String Interpreter?? Or
perhaps something needs to be adjusted in the code??
I even tried adding the country but no go :-(

Kaya

Perhaps your google maps part is broken? Maybe these are
different issues?
I
enter the street address that I would use in google maps in
the location on the SNMP settings for the devices, but this
does not show the devices in the locations on Observium
dashboard :/
Does
anyone have an example syntax for a device they have
working correctly?
Thanks.
Actually just tried on Google Maps
directly and it finds the address fine.....
My address syntax:
building no. street name, city, zip/postcode

I have this problem too....
It was working perfectly before the upgrade to the version
of Observium OpenSource released this year.
In fact my map just shows a blue screen now..... zooming
out doesn't show land at all?

Thanks
Markus,
Could
you give me an example location that would work in the
correct notation. This way I can follow that as a
template for all our devices.
Thanks
Its done by looking in the SNMP sysLocation field of your
device. If you enter a valid address on your device then
Observium will map it properly. Any string that Google
Maps can translate to a location will usually work :)

Hi
Guys,
On the main dashboard you see a
google maps picture.
None of my devices are displayed correctly on
the map.
How do I specify which devices appear where? I
assume it’s to do with the Contact field.
Thanks guys.
