To help diagnose, try typing:

set moddebug 3
module load map

My guess is that you’re missing Python’s wx bindings.

You might be able to fix this with:
sudo apt-get install -y python-wxgtk3.0

Hi! I am having the same problem as this where the map won’t load, I have the python wx bindings and when I run set the moddebug to 3 and try ‘module load map’ I get the below build summary:

Option “-e” is deprecated and might be removed in a later version of gnome-terminal.

Use “-- ” to terminate the options and put the command line to execute after it.

any help with this would be great :slight_smile:

You have not installed OpenCV. See the installation instructions at http://ardupilot.github.io/MAVProxy/html/getting_started/download_and_installation.html for a list of libraries that need to be installed.

Thanks for the response. I have done that but still getting the same error message. it’s always the same, it says there is no module named ‘map’ and ‘cv2’. Is there any more information I can give to make this easier for us to diagnose? I am using Ubuntu 18.04.04

It worked! I had to use pip to install it TWICE but it worked. thank you very much :smiley:

I tried every option but still getting the error.
ModuleCmd_Load.c(208):ERROR:105: Unable to locate a modulefile for 'map'
Please help .
