Hi David, Right, for just a small area those global shapefiles are overkill.
The easiest thing to get running is simply to comment out/remove the references to the shapefiles so that Mapnik can render the osm postgis data without them. To do that you can either make this whole file blank: http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik/inc/layer-shapefiles.xml.inc or comment out the top line here (which is a reference to the 'layer- shapefiles.xml.inc'): http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik/inc/layers.xml.inc Dane On Feb 21, 2010, at 5:10 PM, armenian wrote: > > Hi, my name's David and I'd like to ask for a help.
