Hi Greg,

You are right that Steve's version number was transposed in the email, but I'm sure that he had it right in reality. We solved the problem on IRC, finding that once PATH was set in the USER variable everything linked correctly.

It seems that when PATH was set as the system variable it was not being picked up.

Maybe you know why this might be?

See: http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/118


Cheers,

Dane

I have my Mapnik in c:\mapnik-0_5_1

It looks like you’ve transposed the major and minor parts of the version.

Subject: [Mapnik-users] can't find mapnik.dll

Dear list,

I've been trying to install mapnik 5.0.1 on Windows. I did as per the Windows install instructions on the wiki, but get a "Can't find mapnik.dll" error when type "from mapnik import *" in Python.

but I'm not sure whether the directory should be C:\mapnik-5_0_1 or C:\mapnik-5_0_0 as it says in the wiki? I read that the path to the installation directory was hard-coded somewhere. Does anyone know what the path should be for each version? I have tried many different combinations of %path% variables and installation directories, but to no avail. I also tried installing the 5_0_0 package but got similar errors.

I am using Active Python 2.5. I also have Cygwin, with a Python package installed if that makes a difference.

Can anyone help?
