I was using this fine until one day the weather and images wouldn't show up and haven't shown up since no matter what gps ls I use

Anyone have an idea y ? I could really use some help please cause I have tried everything

Have you got a mylocation.txt file in var/mobile/Documents

Have you got a mylocation.txt file in var/mobile/Documents

Yeah bro I got with the my location app but I'm now try Rasputin way of doing but still no go. It brings up the location of where I am but doesn't seem to collect the weather

Here's a pic of what I mean

[GUNNY29]

I'm not sure man looks like its the HTML that's the problem not the gps weather

Have you played with the code at all?

Open Cydia and search for
1.) lighttpd ( a very small, but very powerful web server that does not need much resources)
2.) php (a very powerful addition to html)
3.) Lighttpd SBSetting Toggle (this gives you a turn on/off switch for lighttpd, as well as a configuration file for lighttpd, no further setup/configuration needed! Works right out of the box).
4.) GPS for web server from MMUS repo (apt.mmus.us) will install the index.html and run.php into the iPhone web server at /var/www.
Install them, open SBSettings, open "Set Windows Toggles" and switch Lighttpd to ON, I have done the same for Location, but don't know if that is needed.
When you close SBSetting it resprings, but reboot as well to make sure lighttpd is running.
Now open Safari (make sure you allow Location Service for Safari!) on the iPhone and enter this url address "http://127.0.0.1/index.html". You get a pop-up window asking if you want to allow "http://127.0.0.1/index.html access to your location", say OK. You should now see the latitude and longitude on the screen. To be on the safe side reload that page (tap that little curly arrow at the right hand side in the address bar).
Now you should have a myLocation.txt file with those coordinates in /var/mobile/Documents.
Select your GPS based lockscreen/widget, respring and enjoy.

Hint for MyLocation app users:
Turn "Sig. Change" OFF, or myLocation.txt file gets overwritten by MyLocation app.

Hey Rasputin,

Where do I find lighttpd? Tried searching in Cydia but the only 2 things were lighttpd SBSettings and lighttpd switch for bossprefs.

Thanks,

[GUNNY29]

Click to download the sbsettings toggle and lighttpd will be added you need both anyway

Anyone have his contact details?

[GUNNY29]

You can use gps just as well with Rasputins guide on page 70

Crazy is going to have a look at updating the app as soon as he is jail broken again I emailed him the other day

lighttpd is in Cydia under the section "Networking", it's from Saurik's repo.
PHP is in Cydia under the section "Development", also on Saurik's repo.
Lighttpd SBSettings is in Cydia under "Addons(SBSettings)", BigBoss repo.
GPS for web server is on MMUS repo (apt.mmus.us).

Na bro I haven't changed any code. If it was the code it would only be one of the lockscreen's not all of them. I can't get any of the gps weather things to show up

Change cydia settings from user to developer and you will see everything that you will need.

hey mate i DL all the stuff, but when i go into safari i get a "cannot connect to server message" any ideas where im going wrong? TIA...

[GUNNY29]

You don't need mylocation app

Biers make sure safari location services is on

[altoiddealer]

You don't need mylocation app

Its just that I'd rather not have to download all those packages, and I also prefer not to install SBSettings which appears to be another prerequisite for this method.

I'm just going to hold off for a simpler solution if one is ever invented.

Just add a myLocation.txt file to the Documents folder with your latitude and longitude for your city
I posted this back a bunch of pages but it needs to be named as I said above and have the following inside

Lat= 50.1234
Long=-123.12345

Google you lat and long and input the numbers

Happy GPS'ing
