I have D7.27
Location 7.x - 3.3
Gmap 7.x 2.9

Geocoding was working fine, enabling me to simply add City and Postcode data to a node and get a map to show
but it stopped working
Now, I can not get a map to show unless I input long and lat ONLY

Steps to reproduce:
install and enable the above modules
set Google API key in admin/config/services/gmap and admin/config/content/location/geocoding/gb/google
add a location to a node and try to get a map to show

I read https://www.drupal.org/node/1940654
but since it is from a year ago I am not clear if the patch in #16 has been applied to Gmap 7.x 2.9
?

Is there a simple solution for this?

I am having the same issue. I attempted to apply patch #16 from https://www.drupal.org/node/1940654, but it does appear that is has been applied already. Any help would be appreciated.

I have now made a totally new installation of Drupal 7.31
and only added the following modules
Gmap 7.x-2.9+3-dev
Location 7.x-3.x-dev
Once I have set it all up with the required Google Maps API key etc I get exactly the problem:
No maps block shows on any content unless I enter Long and Lat manually which, to me at least, implies this is a bug.

I have now tested the vanilla D7.31 with the non-dev versions of these two modules:
Gmap 7.x-2.9
Location 7.x-3.3
and I get exactly the same result:
No maps block shows on any content unless I enter Long and Lat manually
anyone got any ideas on how to trouble shoot the geocoding any more?

finally, thanks to Alan Peart from Creative.coop I have got this working again by deleting the API key from both admin/config/services/gmap
and
admin/config/content/location/geocoding/gb/google

I have the same problem. There is no API key to delete in either location. Can only geocode using long/lat. I'd like to be able to geocode from postcode. Anyone got this working yet please?

Same issue here.

Fatal error: Call to a member function asXML() on a non-object in /home/********/public_html/smdrupaltest/sites/all/modules/location/geocoding/google.inc on line 38

Same here: installed current version of location and gmap module, added a content type with a Location field and now when I try to configure the geocoding options on admin/config/content/location/geocoding I get a white page with the error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function asXML() on a non-object in ......\sites\all\modules\contrib\location\geocoding\google.inc on line 38

--> This is easily fixed by updating location module to the dev version.
In my case I used drush command: drush dl location-7.x-3.x-dev -y & drush cc all

So now I can access admin/config/content/location/geocoding :-)

#9 worked for me (D 7.37)

I'm experiencing the same thing. #9 fixes the issue with Geoocoding Options page not showing up, but it still doesn't gecode an address. I downgraded to 7.x-3.0, and geocoding works now. But I get WSOD on geocoding options page though. So to enable the geocoding first use the dev version, and then downgrade to 3.0.

If you receive a response like Fatal error: Call to a member function asXML() on a non-object, download this patch and apply it to the Location module.

It looks like geocoding works fine. Issue description misses one step to make it work.
You need to choose proper geocoding service provider per country here - admin/config/content/location/geocoding.

Compleate all steps from description and step from #14 all works fine. You may add location not only by long and lat.
