Hello, i was searching for a navigation software for linux and found gpsdrive. After getting my usb to serial converter to work i'm able to see my position in gpsdrive. But for waypoints i need sql support with gpsdrive. So I emerged mysql and created a database for gpsdrive with
Code:
mysql < create.sql
. Now i don't get the errormessage (that gpsdrive can't use sql) at startup anymore, but when i try to create a waypoint gpsdrive crashes and says
Quote:
Table 'geoinfo.waypoints' doesn't exist
.
So what have i done wrong?
Please help me, and sorry for my bad english :wink:

Are you sure that the geoinfo database was created? Run this to check:
Code:
mysql -u root -p -e "show databases;"

I think the problem is that you have not specified where to source the create.sql file from. You should run it like this:
Code:
mysql < /usr/share/gpsdrive/create.sql

You should also read /usr/share/gpsdrive/README.SQL for full instructions on how to set this up.
