Google maps api - broken image url

MvdO79 · 2017-06-03 00:10:37

Hi all,

In my GEO configuration I can see the Google map, so perfect.

But when I check the GEO location marker icon in a chatters overview I see a broken image, when I click the image I go to the right URL in a browser. So only the image is not shown.

This is the piece of code:

[== HTML ==]
<a target="_blank" href="//maps.google.com/maps?t=h&amp;q=52.0825,4.75&amp;z=17&amp;hl=en&amp;z=11&amp;t=m"><img src="//maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?zoom=13&amp;size=400x300&amp;maptype=roadmap&amp;center=52.0825,4.75&amp;sensor=false&amp;markers=color:green|52.0825,4.75" alt="" title="52.0825,4.75"></a>

To me it seems that the img src is wrong: src="//maps.........

Is this code ok, if soI need to check something else? (VPS permissions for viewing images etc?)

Thanks.

Hi MvdO79, welcome in the live helper chat forum!
What version of live helper chat are you using?
The current last one is 2.63

Is your PHP updated?
Please look at the livehelperchat.com demo,
the issue is present? I AM unable to replicate... maybe you have issue on your server / installation.

Thank you for your welcome, and your free time of course.

Chat is version 2.63
PHP 5.6.30
Zend Engine 2.6.0

The demo works perfect so must be my setup, will check further on that.
Will use the demo in future to check if it's chat related only. wink

Hi MvdO79,
thank you for your feedback. Yes the issue seems to be related to your install. Check to not have hot link image protection active.
You can use the browser development tools for check if you can find some error or also you can try to upgrade again... please read here:

but I hope my suggestion in the upstairs post can help you to fix big_smile

Hi thanks, it's solved by your directions of checking the browser development tools, there I saw error 403 so some kind off permission problem.

Turns out that the apache user on Centos 6 did not have read permissions and therefore could not read the external image.

Thanks!
