Hi, I'm facing the same problem after converting the shapefile to spherical mercator with ogr2ogr: ogr2ogr -t_srs EPSG:900913 -s_srs EPSG:4326 countries_point_lonlat_sorted_merc.shp countries_point_lonlat_sorted.shp
Projection used in mapnik xml: <Layer name="Country Labels" srs="+proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0 +k=1.0 +units=m +nadgri...@null"> I've also tried different shapefiles. Same result. I'm using TileCache to pre-generate the tiles. Bjørn 2010/1/16 Warren Vick <[email protected]>: > Hello Bjørn, > > I had similar issues when first working with Mapnik.
