Using "strace" I figured out that it tries to load /home/maptiles/mapnik/world_boundaries/shoreline_300.shp which was missing. Googling around I downloaded the missing file from http://tile.openstreetmap.org/shoreline_300.tar.bz2 Now my installation renders the tiles as expected :-) However I still don't understand what's the use of the <name> parameter for render_tiles() and why the script by default contains a number bounding boxes for german cities that in consequence get rendered explicitly?
