[talk-au] JOSM upload woes: placeholder ids must be unique for created elements
I'm getting the above error message (code 400) when trying to upload my latest set of edits. Any ideas how to get around it or fix it? JOSM doesn't give any feedback as to which placeholder ID is causing the error etc. Googling the error message just gives a page with source code which handles the exception. Please don't tell me the edits need to be done again :p. Brent ___ Talk-au mailing list Talk-au@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-au
[talk-au] FIXED: Re: JOSM upload woes: placeholder ids must be unique for created elements
Ok, was a bit hasty there. Turns out I had a no-right-turn relation with 6 members because each member was added twice. Fixing that (ie, deleting the repeated members) fixed the problem and the chanset closed :). - Original Message - From: b.schulz...@scu.edu.au Date: Wednesday, July 1, 2009 6:47 pm Subject: [talk-au] JOSM upload woes: placeholder ids must be unique for created elements To: talk-au@openstreetmap.org I'm getting the above error message (code 400) when trying to upload my latest set of edits.

It's incredible what little errors I'd manage to miss, that it finds and highlights for me !! Tips: 1. Make sure the validator plugin is loading (see image) 2. Ensure no nodes or ways are selected in JOSM 3. Click the Validate button 4. Get results in the validator pane (see image) 5. In the Validator pane, click the particular folder (in this case Warnings/Unnamed Ways) or individual sub items to highlight them in the main window in yellow (see image) 6. Where you have a full screen with lots of different errors, right click an item to zoom to problem I hope this helps.

You may have accidentally added streets to that, it easy to do. There may be a setting to reset it, I forget, or just delete it. Somewhere in the docs it's mentioned, but it is obscure.

Rick Peterson wrote: Does anyone know if someone provides a Tagwatch excerpt for just Australia? I'm guessing not ! My thoughts are that actual tag use and combination statistics are as valuable (or more valuable) than theoretical tag suggestions. At the very least, discussions on tags used in Australia can be based on current actual usage. Is anyone interested in looking at configuring the script to work with an Australian OSM excerpt? (such as the daily extract at http://osmaustralia.org/osmausextract.php) I have no experience with Perl scripting but can find hosting for the website to make it available to everyone. I see that the main Tagwatch site ( http://tagwatch.stoecker.eu/ ) hasn't updated since 11th June 2009, so the script could be broken with implementation of the API 0.6 I'd be happy to work on this as a side project with any other interested (especially script skilled) people.

Re: [talk-au] How to make unamed streets stand out on JOSM?
If you feel like learning how to compile Java code then this page gives some instructions: http://www.cs.usfca.edu/~parrt/course/601/lectures/java.tools.html Basically the command javac is the Java compiler. You run it against .java files to build .class files. The .jar is just a tarball containing a whole directory structure of source code and compiled code (.java's and .class's). Good luck.
