Cannot load map view anymore

[SiliasGH]

Hi,

I wanted to give Map View another try, since I didn't use it for some time.
Unfortunately it doesn't load anymore and I get the following error message in the console:

Do you know what all of this is about?

Thanks in advance,

I can also confirm that the plugin is not loading in version 6.1.2

[esm7]

My best bet is this:

 4app.js:1 Plugin failure: obsidian-map-view Error: Attempting to register an embed for an already registered extension "gpx"

1. Could you have another plugin that tries to handle GPX files?
2. If it's Map View interfering with itself, it might be just a glitch in the update mechanism. Does it show the exact same log after restarting Obsidian?

Also, if you click the other Map View error shown there (Cannot read properties of null (reading 'splice')), I would appreciate if you could click the line of code and attach a screenshot so I can better locate it.

had the same bug after updating to Obsidian to v6.1.2
Mapviewer just stopped working.
While updating it threw an error "Can't update map-viewer"

Status then:

• not show in Preferences Sidebar of installed community plugins
• no ribbon icon
• no context menu
• not working at all

What fixed it for me (at least now)

• disabled Mapviewer
• run update check for all community plugins again (displayed " No updates found)
• restarted Obsidian
• enabled Mapviewer again

Status now:

• Mapviewer is showing & working again

[esm7]

Just to make sure, after the upgrade to 6.1.2, did you try just restarting Obsidian and the issue continued to happen until you did the points mentioned in the 2nd part?

First I tried just a Restart of Obsidian.

But after restart Mapviewer was still missing from ribbon, context menu settings sidebar.
So I disabled the PlugIn and tried to update again.
It found no updates and gave the message "No updates found".
Restarted Obsidian again and then enabled Mapviewer. After that all was available again and working.

As you mentioned I think something was buggy with the update procedure.
