Debugging

Location not working? Here's how to debug.

# Layers

Test in OSMTouch (QML app using Qt API) before testing in webapps or webbrowser app. Different results? File a bug where it doesn't work. Same result of no location? Next step.

# Check that stack works with dummy provider

Edit /etc/init/lomiri-location-provider.override to start location-serviced with just the dummy provider; this should work. Doesn't work? File a bug against location-service. Works? Reset config to defaults and try the next thing.

# location-service debug

Collect some debug data by editing /etc/init/lomiri-location-service.override and changing the start sequence to add some env vars:

    export GLOG_v=200

before the exec. Reboot, and start some app. You should have some log files under /var/log/upstart/lomiri-location-service.log to attach to a bug report; e.g. a working log looks like this:

    WARNING: Logging before InitGoogleLogging() is written to STDERR
    I1105 16:30:10.221474  1620 provider.cpp:568] StartPositionUpdates

    I1105 16:30:10.228739  1620 provider.cpp:596] StartVelocityUpdates

No position there? check connectivity API works by running:

    cd /tmp
    wget http://people.ubuntu.com/~lool/connectivity
    GLOG_v=200 GLOG_logtostderr=1 ./connectivity

you should see something like:
