I am re-posting this question as really want to complete this pset and cant find a solution.

Have managed most of the problem set without a working map but now need to test markers.

After running flask the map shows briefly before i get “opps something went wrong”. I have checked the java console and am having the “RefererNotAllowedMapError”

I have tried update50 and re-downloading the source code (with provided api key) but result is the same. I'm not sure this is down to not being on the referrer list as from reading documentation i assume cs50 have used a wildcard to allow all ulrs ie. "http://ide50-*" or alike.

my ulr is http://ide50-USERNAME.c9users.io:8080/

Really would like to complete this problem set so if anyone has the same issue and/ or a fix please let me know.

Many Thanks

    Speculation: my url is https://ide50-USERNAME.cs50.io:8080. I see two differences that could be problematic. https vs http and cs50.io vs c9users.io.Perhaps contact [email protected]?

  • Thanks Dino, that's a great starting point. Hadn't found an admin contact so also very useful.

  • Simply changing the ULR to your format has worked Dino. If you can add your comment as an answer i can mark it correct for anyone else with this issue. - Thanks again

Thanks to Dinos comment above i have now resolved this issue.

It turns out i was logged into the CS50 IDE under cloud9.

When running flask this produced a ulr: "http://ide50-USERNAME.c9users.io:8080/"

I first manually changed this to "https://ide50-USERNAME.cs50.io:8080/" and the map would run correctly, however. Flask would still give me the incorrect ulr and i would have to manually override this.

The next time I logged into the IDE I noticed the ulr started with "ide.c9.io". I now log into the IDE using "https://ide.cs50.io/username/ide50" and flask produces a link that connects to google maps correctly.

Hope this helps anyone else with this issue.
