Description Gunter Ohrner 2015-08-31 00:12:19 UTC

Clicking the "geolink" button next to a contact's address opens the default web browser with a non-functional URL:

The address

60645 Frankfurt
DEUTSCHLAND

causes following URL to be opened:

http://open.mapquestapi.com/nominatim/v1/search.php?q=,+Frankfurt,+de

This leads to a garbled web site containing only text and "broken image" symbols, but no working map as expected.

Reproducible: Always

Did you test with other map apps ?
in configuration dialog you can change type of application.
is it work with google map for example ?
it works fine here.

Comment 2 Gunter Ohrner 2015-08-31 10:22:20 UTC

Ok, probably a configuration problem.

kAddressbook was configured to open the address in a web browser using a manual URL, possibly a configuration setting migrated from an older application version?

After configuring kAddressbook to either use MapQuest or Google Maps, opening the address in a web browser works.
