?:0) attempt to index a boolean value

[keithdw1973]

I am a complete noob to this, so followed the instructions to the letter (I think).

I extracted the three .LUA files from the Location.lrmodule file and using the patchluastr.exe file in Windows 10, had the following positive messages (I've replaced most of my API Key with ????.

I then re-inserted the .bin files into the Location.lrmodule file (original size 1232KB, patched 921KB).

This was then copied back into the Lightroom install folder - so far so good!

Lightroom loaded correctly, but when I click on the map tab on the menu I get an error message ?:0) attempt to index a boolean value

I am running Lightroom CC 2015.14 Release - I'm not sure what version number that is!

Thanks for your efforts, I hope this is something I'm doing wrong, missing.

I don't have Lightroom CC, so I don't know if this patch also works for that version.

Does your API key contain special characters? Mine only contains letters and numbers.

[keithdw1973]

My API key does contain an underscore, yes!

I used the copy feature when generating the key to ensure no typos!

On my dashboard, it seems to show things are getting through, but why there are 90% error and not 100% I have no idea.

Anyway, I think I have an old copy of LM6 somewhere in my archive, I've dig it out and try with that.

[astuder]

Underscore shouldn't be an issue. I was more worried about & and ?, which would require some HTTP escaping. But as the requests show up in your console, the patching of the API key is very likely working.

I'm not very familiar with the Google cloud, but if it's possible to drill down into the errors or find a log we may have more clues on what goes wrong.

[astuder]

PS: If you send me the unpatched .LUA files to the email address on my GitHub profile I can verify that the patching works as expected.

[keithdw1973]

Sure thing astuder, I will send you the .lua files.

I found out that the installer from Adobe for Lightroom 6 and CC 2015 are the same, and only change branding upon registration with Adobe!

The brand new Lightroom free trial download always starts off as Lightroom CC, but after installation it can be converted to Lightroom 6 if that’s what you decide to buy instead… After you make the standalone purchase, the product branding will transform to Lightroom 6

I think, also there may be a problem with my Google API account, which Google are investigating. It seems the billing is not setup correctly, although all the details are correct! So it is only allowing 1 API hit per day. So, I'll wait to see what they say about that.

[keithdw1973]

Had a response from Google and they fixed my console.cloud.google.com account. Everything seems to be working as expected now. So the issue was on googles side.

Thanks for your efforts, and thanks for the Lightroom fix.
