That error seems to be thrown from the gdal/ogr code, not mapnik itself. By the look of things, there was a bug in the gdal code which meant that wkbMultiPolygon used the wrong name string. It looks like this was fixed in gdal-1.7.0+, what version are you using? http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/17923 Jon _______________________________________________ Mapnik-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/mapnik-users
