Thanks so much for your help. I now (finally!) have a working mapserver...
Here's my tilecache.cfg:
[cache]
type=Disk
base=/tmp/tilecache
[osm]
type=Mapnik
mapfile=/home/eamorr/maps/mapnik/osm.xml
spherical_mercator=true
And here's the html/javascript:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html, body { height: 100%; }
body {margin: 0px;}
#map{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
<script src="http://openlayers.org/api/OpenLayers.js";></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var map;
function init() {
var options = {
maxResolution: 156543.0339,
units: 'm',
projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:900913"),
maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(-20037508.34, -20037508.34,
20037508.34, 20037508.34)
};
map = new OpenLayers.Map("map", options);
/*
Works with a tilecache.cfg layer entry like:
[osm]
type=Mapnik
mapfile=/full/path/to/osm.xml
spherical_mercator=true
**Your OSM data in postgis must be in EPSG 900913 or Spherical
Mercator**
Edit the below parameters to fit your setup:
*/
// default url of tilecache_http_server.py
var server_url =
"http://maps.myserver.com/tilecache/tilecache.cgi?";;
// Must match tilecache config layername
var layer_name = "osm";
var image_type = "png";
// force regeneration even if cache is hit
//var image_type = "png?FORCE=1";
var wms = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS("TileCache Mapnik
Layer",server_url,
{ serviceVersion: "1.0.0", layers: layer_name, type:
image_type });
var official_tiles = new OpenLayers.Layer.OSM("Mapnik from
OSM");
map.addLayers([wms,official_tiles]);
map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.Scale('scale'));
map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.Navigation());
map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoom());
map.zoomToMaxExtent();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="init()">
<div id="map"></div>
</body>
This may be of help to someone in future.
Best wishes from Ireland,
