Hi,
I have been trying for the past few days to get a simple map to display
with mapnik+tilecache+openlayers. I have installed mapnik , and got the
default rundemo.py running , map.xml being one that was generated. the image
files were generated too like the documentation on mapnik says. I have also
successfully displayed a map using openlayers and tilecache but this time
was with mapserver.
But coming to the main problem which is using
tilecache+openlayers+mapnik. Now all i did in the tilecache.cfg was include
a layer like this:
[testlayer]
type=Mapnik
mapfile=C:\mapnik_0_6_0\demo\python\map.xml
bbox=-8024477.28459,5445190.38849,-7381388.20071,5662941.44855
maxResolution=2545.4906698
extent_type=loose
srs=EPSG:900913
in the index.html , I included:
var options = {
controls: [
new OpenLayers.Control.MouseDefaults(),
new OpenLayers.Control.KeyboardDefaults(),
new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoomBar(),
new OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher(),
new OpenLayers.Control.Permalink()
],
maxResolution: 2545.4906698,
maxExtent: new
OpenLayers.Bounds(-8024477.28459,5445190.38849,-7381388.20071,5662941.44855),
units: "m",
projection: "EPSG:900913"
};
function init(){
map = new OpenLayers.Map( 'map', options);
layer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS( "VMap0",
"/cgi-bin/tilecache.cgi?",
{
layers : 'testlayer
}
);
map.addLayer(layer);
}
But after doing all this , the browser only displays pink tiles.There is no
folder created for the testlayer images. I am simply lost. Can anyone point
out what I am really missing here.I would really appreciate it.
