The following had worked for me although it takes six steps :) 1. Boot Ubuntu 2. Ensure you have installed Subversion and XML::Writer. Run sudo apt-get install subversion libxml-writer-perl 3. Get a large piece of the source code from the OSM SVN. Run svn co http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/utils/ 4. Change into the directory where bulk_upload.pl is located cd utils/import/bulk_import/ 5. Make a _dry-run_ of bulk-import.pl first, where the value after -i is the filename of the OSM change data, e.g. bulk_upload.pl -n -ff -a http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/ -i ~/projekte/osm/Some_Filename.osc 6. If this works fine, upload the data and *do not interrupt the process*. Error messages are part of normal operation; the script will resolve these issues without human intervention. Interrupting the script might end up in uploading the data accidently twice. bulk_upload.pl -ff -a http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/ -i ~/projekte/osm/Some_Filename.osm Feel free to ask again if any errors remain. Please report then any error messages. Cheers, Roland _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
