<br>
I've been asked to investigate why a MapProxy setup sometimes fails to <br>
deliver tiles. It is mapproxy 1.9 on a VMware server with windows server <br>
2012 and network attached storage. It is (obviously) not my setup, nor <br>
well documented :( but what I can see it is running as a windows service <br>
using cherrypy and python2.7<br>
<br>
All the layers are mbtile-caches looking at Geoserver WMS (which runs <br>
fine) and they are usually fast and I don't see any heavy server load, <br>
nor is it running out of memory.<br>
<br>
However every now and then mapproxy stops delivering the actual tiles, <br>
but instead delivers within ~20ms an empty tile of 0 bytes. The logs <br>
seem to be fine, but I'm not entirely sure where I should be looking. <br>
Once I restart mapproxy all is fine again.<br>
<br>
So the question is what might cause mapproxy to deliver empty tiles for <br>
valid requests, in stead of error messages/log messages?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Steven<br>
<br>
BTW. I understand upgrading to a newer version should be a first step, <br>
but apart from the fact that I don't know (yet) how to upgrade a windows <br>
service, I don't like to blindly upgrade the software without <br>
understanding the root cause of the problem<br>
