Title: Locus export problem or GSAK import problem?
Post by: c.s.g. on November 03, 2014, 18:55:39
Hello,

in the attached gpx file "Der_Villinger_Magdalenenberg.gpx" created with Locus Pro 3.3.1 there is one geocache with 5 child waypoints present.

If I now import this gpx file with GSAK 8.4.1.87, GSAK will create 6 geocaches with no child waypoints!?!?!
If I modify the Locus Pro created gpx file by adding "<desc>This is an individual cache generated from Geocaching.com</desc>" (see "Der_Villinger_Magdalenenberg edited.gpx"), GSAK imports the geocche with its 5 child waypoints correct!?!?!

Question:
Is this a Locus Pro export problem when creating the gpx file?
Or is it an GSAK import problem when importing data from that gpx file?

How do you know that such <desc> tag helps??

I received exactly same reported issue during a two weeks ago and it took me about two hours till I found out why this happen!! :))

Anyway I already wrote to GSAK developer and no response. I see no reason, why this should be issue in Locus, so there is nothing I can do on my side, sorry.

To be honest it was not me who discovered it, I only want to help StreifLicht who started a topic in the corresponding GSAK forum. (http://gsak.net/board/index.php?showtopic=28619).

Clyde (the developer of GSAK) fixed the bug in the newest version of GSAK.
And it seems to work now as expected.
