This is probably a stupid newbie question.

I have the sample BaseWMSFactory subclass from
http://trac.mapnik.org/wiki/OgcServerSvn rendering fine in an
OpenLayers layer using the world_borders.shp that came from somewhere.

If I replace that with the SOCO_PRMD_City_Limits.shp downloaded from
the "City Limits" data set on
http://www.sonoma-county.org/prmd/gisdata/data_download.htm
I get absolutely nothing. This is with that sample code, replacing the
poly and line definitions with:

   poly = PolygonSymbolizer(Color('yellow'))
   line = LineSymbolizer(Color('red'),.1)

and setting SHAPEFILE to
'/home/danlyke/code/geo/sonomacounty/City_Limits/SOCO_PRMD_City_Limits.shp'

However, if I create a map and render_to_file(...) using the
following Python code, I see what I'd expect. Am I doing something
stupid with projections? What else might be going wrong?

And, yes, I can do this switching nothing other than pointing my
ogcserver.conf to the appropriate map factory, with my JavaScript
OpenLayers definition zoomed into the right area that shows up what I'd
expect with the world borders.

---- Python to render the shape file to a file ----
#!/usr/bin/env python

from mapnik import *
m = Map(600,600,"+proj=latlong +datum=WGS84")
m.background = Color('grey')

s = Style()
r=Rule()
r.symbols.append(PolygonSymbolizer(Color('yellow')))
r.symbols.append(LineSymbolizer(Color('red'),0.1))
s.rules.append(r)
m.append_style('Layer PAR_PARCELS',s)

layername = 'PAR_PARCELS'

lyr = Layer(layername,"+init=epsg:4326")
lyr.datasource =
Shapefile(file='../sonomacounty/City_Limits/SOCO_PRMD_City_Limits.shp')
lyr.styles.append('Layer ' + layername) m.layers.append(lyr)

m.zoom_to_box(lyr.envelope())
render_to_file(m,'sonoma.png', 'png')
