error in loading OpenTopoMap source

[Antonio Valanzano]

I have added the following "opentopomap.xml" file to the folder mapsources

<custommapsource>
<name>OpenTopoMap</name>
<minzoom>0</minzoom>
<maxzoom>17</maxzoom>
<tiletype>png</tiletype>
<tileupdate>None</tileupdate>
<url>https://opentopomap.org{$z}/{$x}/{$y}.png</url>
<backgroundcolor>0#FFFFFF</backgroundcolor>
</custommapsource>
but when I start MOBAC I receive an error saying that the file is malformed (see attachment).

Does someone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance

Looking at the XML I spot multiple errors:

1. xml is case sensitive, your xml file uses lower-case tags only that is wrong.
2. background color has to start with a ' #'
3. the url is invalid as the there is so separator between .org and {z} that will never work.

Please re-check the example custom map sources and the tag description https://sourceforge.net/p/mobac/wiki/Custom%20XML%20Map%20Sources/

And in XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<customMapSource>
    <name>"Monde, OpenTopoMap XML cartes de randonnées-Z(17)"</name>
    <tileType>png</tileType>
    <minZoom>5</minZoom>
    <maxZoom>17</maxZoom>
    <url>
        https://{$serverpart}.tile.opentopomap.org/{$z}/{$x}/{$y}.png
    </url>
    <tileUpdate>None</tileUpdate>
    <backgroundColor>#00000000</backgroundColor>
    <ignoreErrors>false</ignoreErrors>
    <serverParts>a b c</serverParts>
</customMapSource>
