Error in the map window: Exception: No data in local tile cache in Adaptive settings

Environment:

LDMS 9.5 Sp1 and Newer

Problem:

When creating a GeofenceTrigger in Adaptive settings you may see the following error message:

Error in the map window:  Exception: No data in local tile cache...  We are sorry but we don't have imagery at this zoom level for this region..

Cause:

This is due to a DNS issue in resolving pingtest.net that OpensStreetMap uses to check for network connectivity.

Solution/ Workaround:

• Create a hosts file entry that maps to www.pingtest.net to its IPaddress 72.21.92.82(check to make sure that address resolves or has not changed) or any ip address of a machine that returns an ICMP ping if your company does not use pingtest.net for any other reason.

Or

• Get the latitude longitude info from a different source and copy and paste it into the dialog box.
