docker is running but no map is loaded

[tuandle]

Hi @danielsnider ,
Thank you for your work. I try to use you docker to load map to mapviz but can't get it to work.
I followed your instruction. I was able to add a map_tile component and save. But the status always shows "no tranform from /wgs84". I run a rosbag and it said that "Got NavSat message. Setting origin and unsubscribing from NavSat." However, nothing is shown. If I tried to add a gps (using the add button), mapviz crashes.
I am really confused about how to run mapviz (I did read through every recommended issues but still got stuck) so if you could help me with a walkthrough from the very beginning, I greatly appreciate!
Thank you for your help!

Hi @tuandle! Thanks for trying my tool. For a walkthrough from the very beginning, check out page 50 of my book chatper. Hopefully it helps!

I've gotten that error too. Does this conversation help you at all?

@danielsnider , thank you for your reply. I have talked to one of mapviz's authors and it seems that mapviz on my system demonstrates a strange bug that he could not reproduce. I will try to use another laptop to see. Thank you again!
