ZIPCodeData and many other geographic functions are missing and have badly mangled documentation. I assume something went wrong in an automated build process. This is on the Mac OSX release.
So far ZIPCodeData[], NeighborhoodData[] and MountainData[],BroadcastStationData[], MovieData[], BuildingData[], PersonData[] are all mangled.
Worse yet, URLFetch is broken also. Something bad happened,
at least with the Mac release.

- taliesinb 12y agoWhat is your value of $Version and SystemInformation["Small"]? I can't replicate these problems on any of the 3 platforms using freshly-downloaded versions.
- spitfire 12y agoWould having an old version installed make a difference? I renamed my current install to "mathematica backup.app" then installed mms 10. It feels like some part of mms has failed without adequately reporting it.

- taliesinb 12y agoLooks like it... I would delete both from disk, redownload 10, and reinstall it. Also check that you didn't run out of disk space. If all else fails, phone our technical support at 1-800-WOLFRAM, they're pretty good.
- spitfire 12y agoI checked the MD5sum given on the wolfram website (b58c6bb7393f23137355da923f2734fc), they match. Completely removing my previous copy of Mathematica and nuking my ~/Library/Mathematica directory made the documentation formatting errors go away. I'm not sure if that was the cause or not. However, I still get ExportString messages out of many functions. General::unavail: ExportString is not available in this version of the Wolfram Language. EDIT: I'm trying to hunt down why I get the unveil error message. Might this be a limitation of a trial mathematica license?
- taliesinb 12y agoTurns out the trial version is (probably accidentally) quite broken: http://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/290210?p_p_auth=uf0Lnir3 http://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/290210?p_p_auth=uf...
