shp2tile question

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Don,

check the dbf of your generated tileindex (the LOCATION field). I usually
use absolute paths in there. Are there absolute or relative paths to the
files in there?

Also use TYPE POLYGON. Are you zoomed in enough to have your layer showing
up, since you are using a MAXSCALE setting?

Best regards,
Bart
