I am trying to create a map of node locations, but only for nodes of type Event and Event with Volunteer Timeslots. I've got Location and GMap configured with the API key in all the right places. I'm using the latest dev releases of these modules.
However, when I create a new event node with location data, no geocoding occurs. If I query the location table, I can see my node with the correct location, but the latitude and longitude fields are null.
I looked at location.module in the location_nodeapi() function. Around line 842, I see:
<?php
case 'insert':
?>and no code to handle this case. Should there be?
Do I need to plug in some code from elsewhere to get all this working?

No
That just means it runs the same code as " case 'update':".
Location works but there are several settings pages and you have to make sure everything is set up everywhere. You have to tell it that you're using Google's API on two different pages, IIRC. Make sure you've hit all the pages and looked at all the options.

Hi Michelle, I configured it
Hi Michelle,
I configured it in the following way:
Here's the interesting part - I am using nodeprofile/usernode for custom user profiles, and I am collecting location data for a custom content type. That is working just fine - the address is geocoded and I see latitude and longitude data in the database.
My event content type is not however.
Any thoughts?
This issue is now solved.
This issue is now solved. There were some MySQL errors that were not being displayed, but were being displayed on the user/search view. The query being generated started off like:
SELECT DISTINCT DISTINCT...There is a patch and description of the issue at http://drupal.org/node/184743.
