Hi, I'm new to Mapnik and I already set up Mapnik with WMS/OGCServer (my OS is OpenSUSE 11.1). I tried the "hello world" example from here http://trac.mapnik.org/wiki/XMLGettingStarted and it works, but when I try the second example "population" I always get an empty png image. Why is this? I nearly spent hours getting this example to work but no success :( ...
That's the way how I tried it: I got the source from this page: http://mapnik-utils.googlecode.com/svn/example_code/world_population/ Then I changed the path to the shapefiles in the population.xml like this "../data/world_borders" --> the ../data/worldborders directory contains only those files (I changed the rights to 777): thematic_mapping_world.dbf thematic_mapping_world.prj thematic_mapping_world.shp thematic_mapping_world.shx Now, when I run the world_population.py it seems that all is working fine and I get the following output: /rule(filter_statement): "" /grammar(<unknown>): "" size = 2 file=../data/world_borders type=shape Envelope(-180,-90,180,83.62359600000001) file_length=3332172 shape_type=5 datasource=0x80fa6c8 type=1 scale=0.3 start map processing bbox=Envelope(-210,-90,210,90) scale denominator = 1.19271e+08 start layer processing : countries datasource = 0x80fa6c8 ENCODING = utf-8 total shapes read=3784 end layer processing end map processing 0.37 s destroyed singleton destroyed singleton destroyed singleton But the file is just blank. I would appreciate it if you could help me! thanks, Martin -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?
