When I try and save my edits to uMap I get a message in a red box - "Whoops! Someone else seems to have edited the data. You can save anyway but this will erase the changes made by others. Options - save anyway / cancel " However, I can't "save anyway" - that button doesn't work. I can only "cancel". This means I cannot update my map. I am the only editor of my map, I am confident nobody else has my login. I checked all my PCs / mobiles / chromebooks - they are all logged out of OSM/uMap. I don't think I am creating the conflict myself. Any advice is much appreciated. This is my map - https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/gabcy-network_694712#9/-36.5291/145.1802 asked 08 Jul '23, 10:19 Nix258

I have made some progress. Using another network as suggested by ybon worked and I could save edits. Also on my home setup, I logged out of google - and was able to save edits on uMap then. I use google chrome and have it set to sync between my devices. This appears to create a conflict, that I might be able to work around. However, it would be good to have a better solution where I could force a save anyway, or uMap was not triggered by my google sync setup. answered 12 Jul '23, 12:51 Nix258 |
I have the same issue which is not resolved by logging out of my Google account or switching from Google browser to Firefox. I opened and edited a different map with no problems. "Save Anyway" produces the same response I poked around in the developer Network panel but cannot upload a screenshot here. answered 16 Jul '23, 22:10 Danya Anderson Yes, this is consistent with what I was seeing. The issue was just confined to one map. I ended up using Clone under the Advanced settings to duplicate the map. I was able to edit the cloned map, so I am using that going forward.

I don't have an answer, just commenting to say I'm having the same problem. (I hadn't done any edits on uMap for a while, so I don't know when it started.) Likewise this is a map for which I'm the sole owner.
Could you try editing from another browser / network ?
Thanks for responses.
ybon - I will try from my workplace tomorrow.
I tried to edit my uMap from my workplace today. I was able to login and make and save changes. Yay! However, when I came home and tried there, I still have the same problem - a red box with the same error message as in the OP. I cannot save any edits to my map. Any suggestions for how to fix my home situation?
Can you try force reloading the page, so to prevent any cache to be used, should be either ctrl-F5 or ctrl-shift-R on your browser ?
Thanks for assistance! I use chrome - so ctrl-shift-R forced a reload. However, this didn't make any difference whether using before or after the edits. I still get the red conflict box which prevents saving, and reloading just removes the changes as well. Very puzzling. I think part of it is a bug since I cannot use the "save anyway" button.
