Hello out there tonight -- I was posting on here before and received some good advice, which led me to lots of research and i think i finally decided on wanting to get the Planet.OSM file inserted into a MYSQL database, and go onwards from there. I actually have MYSQL running on a Windows Apachae emultation, and it works great and feel very comfortable with it. I also have a Linux machine, which I am not as comfortable with... but starting to get the hang of shell commands, and setting things up.
My problem has been trying to figure out Osmosis, which I have not been able to install. I think it is because I am missing or not running JAVA on my Linux box... and I have been so frustrated trying to get anything working. The best I have been able to accomplish is getting SQLITE3 and have been successful at getting sample tables inserted from a command line under Linux .... where I am really stumped is this link: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/User:Onion/Mapper It speaks of SQLITE3 and something called "OSM2DB". That got my hopes up... but I cannot seem to find this OSM2DB anywhere, and only precious few results on Google come up... I cannot seem to find it! :( ... I don't really know what tools I need to get the Planet.OSM file to a SQL file on Windows natively, or if that is possible. If I can get that, then I know what to do, and can import it into the MYSQL on my Windows machine. If I could understand the Linux approach, then I could create the SQL file and move it over. The problem is getting from here to there. :| Can someone please suggest what I should do? I don't know if there are better tools I don't know about, what approaches I could take with what I have already, or someone has already put a SQL ready version of PLANET.OSM somewhere. I am ready to climb mountains for this, so please advise! Thank you! Any suggestions would be great and thank you for much for this group! Best Wishes, FireGirl. -- Want an e-mail address like mine?
