Re: [josm-dev] Cache folder settings don't work anymore ?
Thank you for the explanation. I went with -Djosm.cache=/path/ in startup option and it works.

Start josm with --help to see the new options (r7841): options provided as Java system properties: -Djosm.pref=/PATH/TO/JOSM/PREFSet the preferences directory -Djosm.userdata=/PATH/TO/JOSM/USERDATASet the user data directory -Djosm.cache=/PATH/TO/JOSM/CACHE Set the cache directory -Djosm.home=/PATH/TO/JOSM/HOMEDIR Relocate all 3 directories to homedir. Cache directory will be in homedir/cache So to locate the cache directory, JOSM takes the first path it finds from the following list 1. system property 'josm.cache' 2. subdirectory 'cache' of path given by system property 'josm.home' 3. josm advanced preference value 'cache.folder' 4. default path depending on OS: a) Linux: ~/.josm/cache b) Win: %LOCALAPPDATA%\JOSM\cache c) Mac: ~/Library/Caches/JOSM It can be discussed if it would be better to switch 2. and 3., but in general, command line settings should have higher precedence than saved settings.

[josm-dev] Cache folder settings don't work anymore ?
Some time ago I set this up for my cache folder, and it worked ok. Don't know when, but now I see it doesn’t work anymore.

So basically you have to open a TMS layer first, then open the preferences. You can also add the property manually, of course. After I did it the other way, the string is now there in preferences.xml, I was going to try manually adding it if the other option didn't work. It works now.

Re: [josm-dev] JMapViewerTiles location?
Yes, edit the property imagery.tms.tilecache_path in the advanced preferences. (F12, make sure expert mode is enabled at bottom left, then select last tab) Couldnt fint that string. Should also work changing the path under: Preferences -> Imagery preferences -> Settings (2nd Tab) -> last line (TMS-Settings) This one worked. Thanks for the fast response. ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
[josm-dev] JMapViewerTiles location?
Is there a way to change the place where tiles are cached from /tmp/JMapViewerTiles_user/ to folder of own choosing? ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev

You get (emphasis by me): Data WITH ERRORS. Upload anyway? + Warnings + ILLEGAL tag/value combinations - temporary highway type So, highway=road is an error, and an illegal combination of a tag and value? Thankfully it doesn't complain when I write highway=raod. Maybe I should use highway=raod instead of highway=road as the latter is clearly illegal and an error. I think the main problem is that the validator is now by default enabled before download - something you can switch off, of course, but to the new mapper the "Your data has errors" message conveys: We don't want your data, please stop what you're doing! I agree with this, validator should NOT start automaticaly with JOSM. It shoud have a option to start it when you want. We lost some new OSM mappers because of this. Validator was making them angry with its constant warnings, street without names, ... and so on, and they stopped mapping. So please tune(tune, not turn) the validator down, or write extensive manual about all the possible error combinations it reports, and what to do... We who use it for years know what to do, but new useras are confused. ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
