I have never seen any hanging of MapProxy. Can you shutdown MapProxy with ctrl-c, ctrl-d or ctrl-z (can't remember which one works on windows) and post the traceback information?

It should work, otherwise it would be a bug :)

Can you make sure your client requested MapProxy with `transparent=true`?

You mean 'image%2Fpng'? That is the right encoding.

And you are sure you haven't installed 0.8.5? It was released 5 days ago, and if you used easy_install/pip you should have that release. You can look into your virtualenv (lib/python2.6/site-packages) and check the output of `python -m mapproxy.core.version`.

Oliver
