Hello, I'm following the instructions on the wiki for bringing up the rails port:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Rails_port I want to bring it up with an empty user table, and I've tried both the options mentioned. The first is using the --drop-author option to osmfilter before importing. I tried this method using commands something like this: $ osmosis --rb ~/src/osmsf/planet.pbf --bp file=berkeley.poly clipIncompleteEntities=true --wx file=tmp.osm $ osmfilter tmp.osm --drop-author > no-author.osm $ osmosis --rx file=no-author.osm --write-apidb-0.6 populateCurrentTables=yes validateSchemaVersion=no (auth info omitted for clarity). This fails with: <snip> SEVERE: Thread for task 1-rx failed org.openstreetmap.osmosis.core.OsmosisRuntimeException: The entity timestamp attribute is missing. at org.openstreetmap.osmosis.core.domain.common.UnparsedTimestampContainer.<init>(UnparsedTimestampContainer.java:34) at org.openstreetmap.osmosis.xml.common.BaseElementProcessor.createTimestampContainer(BaseElementProcessor.java:90) </snip> I'm not sure if --drop-author must strip the timestamp, or if osmosis can be told to tolerate this. Anyway, I tried the other method of using the omitmetadata=true option to osmosis' --wx task using commands like this: $ osmosis --rb ~/src/osmsf/planet.pbf --bp file=berkeley.poly clipIncompleteEntities=true --wx file=tmp.osm $ osmosis --rx tmp.osm --wb file=tmp.pbf omitmetadata=true $ osmosis --rb file=tmp.pbf --write-apidb-0.6 populateCurrentTables=yes validateSchemaVersion=no This worked, but then when I bring up the rails port and attempt to edit a feature, I get: "A server error occurred. Do you want to retry? (The server said: Version mismatch: Provided 4294967295, server had: -1 of Node 286080990)" Of course 4294967295 = 0xffffffff = -1. So the question is how should I fix this? I figured I'd just set all the version numbers in nodes, ways, relations, and their current_* counterparts to 1. But this causes an integrity problem: # update nodes set version=1; ERROR: update or delete on table "nodes" violates foreign key constraint "node_tags_id_fkey" on table "node_tags" DETAIL: Key (node_id, version)=(34351117, -1) is still referenced from table "node_tags". Any recommendations on either of these two approaches? Thanks, Brian _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
