Hello, i have two sources of information that seem to contradict sometimes, maybe somebody can give me some hints?
I used subversion to checkout svn.openstreetmap.org. After installing geos-3.1.0 i could compile and install osm2pgsql. I also downloaded and installed postgis-1.3.5. I've also set up PostgreSQL on my linux system. In svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik/install.txt i've read how to set up the tables in PostgreSQL (see below). This description is missing on: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mapnik#World_Boundaries Isn't it necessary? <snip> # some line breaks are added... export user_name="tmohr" sudo -u postgres createuser -Upostgres -S -D -R "$user_name" echo "GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA PUBLIC TO \"$user_name\";" | sudo -u postgres psql -Upostgres gis sudo -u postgres createlang plpgsql gis sudo -u postgres psql -Upostgres gis </usr/share/postgresql/lwpostgis.sql \ 2>&1 | grep -v -e 'FEHLER: aktuelle Transaktion' \ -e 'ERROR: current transaction is aborted' \ -e 'CREATE FUNCTION' -e OPERATOR echo "GRANT ALL on geometry_columns TO \"$user_name\";" | sudo -u postgres psql -Upostgres gis echo "GRANT ALL on spatial_ref_sys TO \"$user_name\";" | sudo -u postgres psql -Upostgres gis echo "GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA PUBLIC TO \"$user_name\";" | sudo -u postgres psql -Upostgres gis </snip> I had also downloaded: 1. planet-090408.osm.bz2 2. relations-090408.osm.bz2 (what is this one for? I did not use it at all.) 3. world_boundaries-spherical.tgz 4. processed_p.zip 5. shoreline_300.tar.bz2 I installed 3, 4 and 5, all files directly into /usr/share/mapnik/world_boundaries. Importing planet.osm as described on the openstreetmap wiki fails: schleim:/local/ftp/osm # bzcat /local/ftp/osm/planet-090408.osm.bz2 | sudo -u postgres osm2pgsql -m - osm2pgsql SVN version 0.65-14495 Using projection SRS 900913 (Spherical Mercator) Setting up table: planet_osm_point Setting up table: planet_osm_line Setting up table: planet_osm_polygon Setting up table: planet_osm_roads Mid: Ram, scale=100 Reading in file: - Processing: Node(330350k) Way(159k) Relation(0k) Speicherzugriffsfehler # The line above is German, means memory access error. Can anybody give me a hint if i've set up something wrong? Thanks for any hints, Torsten. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
