the log was in red color.. and line 3 states a missing resource exception..
So what's the procedure? to run the app and then open the browser and type that URL?

Hello All. I realize that this is an old thread and I'm breaking the rules here, but it does not make sense to me to start a new thread when my question is directly related to the original post. Sorry about that but here goes for all it's worth ....

I tried the leaflet application posted by @eurojam and of course made sure I used my own mapbox token. However I get a blank map (see below) but the button controls are functional.
Does anybody know if anything has changed with mapbox and/or leaflet since this was posted. I have just started investigating it and found this post, so I though it would be a good start. But I seem to be at a dead-end.

I read somewhere that SSL is required. So I changed the server code to use SSL, but using SSL I don't even get the bank map - just the button controls. I verified that the SSL is setup correctly with the certificates, etc., since it does bring up the web page.

Thanks for the tip. It was very helpful. I made the recommended changes in "index.html" (see below). But now I don't even get the blank map grey box. Just the button controls.

i've used mapbox for years with leaflet. when they introduced some changes,
i adopted them. i use the url shown on the link i posted. i have no problem.

i don't use the app you use, so it's difficult to comment on any possible coding errors.
sorry. everything does seem in order, however (quick glance).

i would have these suggestions:
1) make sure your key wasn't changed as part of mapbox's other changes. i don't remember if i had to get a new key.
2) create a literal url and try it on your desktop browser. do you follow what i mean? if you get a tile, then the error is somewhere in your code.
if you still don't get a tile, then the error is in the url (possibly the key...).

when i key this in my desktop browser, i get a tile
https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/mapbox/streets-v11/tiles/7/74/43?access_token=YOUR_KEY_GOES_HERE

Thanks for your help. Yes, I did create a literal URL and got a tile. I'll check the code again and see if there is an issue. The only thing I changed in the code from the original code posted here is this part:

changed code:
        var map = L.map('map');
 
        L.tileLayer('https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/{id}/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}?   
        access_token={accessToken}', {
            attribution: '© <a href="https://www.mapbox.com/about/maps/">Mapbox</a> © <a
                href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> <strong><a
                href="https://www.mapbox.com/map-feedback/" target="_blank">Improve this map</a></strong>',
            tileSize: 512,
            maxZoom: 18,
            zoomOffset: -1,
            id: 'mapbox/streets-v11',
            accessToken: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
            }).addTo(map);

Does not look like anything else needs to be changed. But again, I'm still in learning mode concerning mapbox and leaflet.

did you forget to set the view

var map = L.map('map').setView([40, 5], 3);

when i looked at the code last night, it was there. after your edits, i don't see it (at least in what you posted) ...

I did remove it to conform to the recommended code changes in the document. Then I added it back in and tried it but there was still no success getting the map to appear. Also, the fact that the gray blank box does not appear (like it did with the classic code) puzzles me.

yep. when i plug your changes into last night's index.html, i no longer see the gray box.

isn't there some websocket server involved? is it running?

not to make things more confusing, but most of index.html can function BY ITSELF as a little maps app. i don't really see what the web socket server adds.
the whole purpose of leaflet is to run as javascript in a web page. it reaches out to mapbox and loads all the tiles.
