Yes, in the sense that Mapnik will now throw a `mapnik::datasource_exception` if PQstatus returns an error, which could be due to a failed connection or a failed query. Previously any failed query would simple return no results and Mapnik would blissfully give you an empty map. > Now I know that I > currently have such an error (missing column) and I am about to fix > that, Great. > but I wondered about the error handling.

Where, how, and when? renderd likely needs to be improved to catch the `mapnik::datasource_exception`, but it is hard to know without more info. _______________________________________________ Mapnik-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/mapnik-users
