Besides the fact that I do not see a particular good reason for running a tileserver on windows (mapnik works fine on windows, so style development can already take place on windows), I seriously doubt, that this will currently work. One reason for this is, that mod_tile uses a unix-domain socket to communicate with the backend (tirex/renderd). So one would need at least convert this to a tcp/socket. IMO, there is better work to do for mod_tile. One thing that comes to mind is the still unimplemented whitelist feature for tile trotteling, which I would have needed recently. This said I'm quite certain that Kai would not mind to take patches which will actaually make it work on windows. It's free software after all. Regards Sven P.S.: In this live I will probably not understand anymore, why people actually _want_ to use windows. Bad enough, that one is still forced to use it way to often. -- "Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly" (Henry Spencer) /me is giggls@ircnet, http://sven.gegg.us/ on the Web _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
