Hi!

I need some help on installing mapnik. I had Mapnik running on an XP 
machine and was using it to render the hiking map for Germany at 
http://topo.geofabrik.de. I have just upgraded my machine by several GB 
of memory and switched to XP 64bit to be able to use it. So far 
re-installation went well, but now I am unable to get mapnik to run.

When trying the test "from mapnik import *", I get the error

   File "c:\mapnik_0_6_1\site-packages\mapnik\__init__.py", line 44, in 
<module>
     from _mapnik import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: Diese Anwendung konnte nicht gestartet 
werden...

As far as I can tell, everything should be in order and looks the same 
as my previous installation. The path towards c:\mapnik_0_6_1\lib\ is 
set and typing mapnik.dll right before evoking python does find the dll 
in the search path.

A check with dependeny walker indicated a mix of 32bit and 64bit DLLs 
being used, but some comments on the web indicated that this was 
unreliable. All other 32bit applications run just fine.

Any ideas or suggestions?

I would need help rather urgently as there can be no updates to the map 
until I get the renderer to run again.


bye
          Nop
