Implementing .kml layer
Why /test/kml instead of correct /test.kml?
Typo, sorry. It does read:
/test.kml
I would recommend trying full URL. If it still doesn't work check browser developer console for any issues.
Ok, I put in the full url. No change. I can enter the full url in a browser and it returns the kml in a xml format in the browser as expected.
Developer console shows no errors and all 200 for response codes. I see nothing in the developer console where it calls the kml but I wouldn't expect it to.
Since this .kml file is on the same host with my own Traccar server it shouldn't need CORS, right?
Any reason to have to restart the server after entering the url in the POI Layer preference?

Yeah, you don't need to worry about CORS.
I'm using Open Street Map for the map layer. It should work with that, right? Should it work with any map layer?
It should work with any map layer.
I moved the test.kml file to another web application on the same serve where I know .kml files work, and the test.kml does work it it. I just cannot get Traccar to recognize it, or use it.
Are there any known browsers that Traccar does not display well? I have used Firefox, IE, Edge, and Chrome. My firefox does not work and play well with javascript so I use IE and it works well for everything except the .kml file. Any other suggestions?
And the answer is, only Chrome will utilize the .kml files, at least for me. I have not figured out what the difference is but Chrome was the answer.
Thanks Anton
I have working kml layer on Firefox 59.0.2.
May be you have some errors in kml itself, Chrome ignores them, but Firefox just not show.
can some one add the steps on how to add KML and GPX to the solution?
Place a .kml file in the web directory.
Click Settings, Server, then place the name of the .kml file in the POI Layer blank.

I am trying to implement a kml file. I have tried it in both the server preferences and in the user preferences with no luck. Logged out and back in between changes. .kml file is in /opt/traccar/web/test.kml
In the POI Layer: /test/kml
The test.kml file is the one in the GitHub discussion. I have tried other .kml files. Is there a log file where javascript errors might be located for the traccar web? How can I diagnose why the POI .kml files are not being implemented?
