[MapProxy] Difficulty setting up Custom Projections

Thanks for your quick reply.  Permissions unfortunately didn't help.  I made that epsg file 777 and no luck.  I'm running CentOS 5.

I did see this post:

http://code.google.com/p/pyproj/issues/detail?id=6

Not sure if ESPG needs to be lowercase because of CentOS 5 or not but so far no luck on getting that projection in there.  I run Ubuntu 10.04 locally, I will try to set it up here on my machine to see if I run into similar issues.

Thanks again!
Marc

That looks good and it works on my system.

"no system list" means that the projection init file was not found.
Can you double check that you have a /var/www/mapproxy/srs/epsg file
that is readable by the user.

If a specific EPSG code is not found, the error should be "no options
found in 'init' file".

I have to admit that the error messages from pyproj are not very
helpful.

Regards,
Oliver
