Mapnik windows binaries are 32bit, but work fine on 64 bit windows 7 (at least I tested them this way within vitualbox)

As far as Mapnik running within apache/mod_wsgi my assumption is that you must match arch exactly. So even if your os is 64 bit capable both Mapnik and apache must be the same arch.

So, I would guess 32bit Mapnik would work with 32 apache on 64 bit windows server if apache itself works there. But, let us know.

64 bit Mapnik binaries are a desire, but I would not hold your breath for them because it's an unknown of whether we can compile each mapnik dependency 64 bit on windows to be able to ship a 64bit Mapnik version for windows.

Thanks Dane for the info.

I will stick with Python 2.6 but I have another question for Python 2.6.6 it appears to have a 32 bit version and 64 bit version (links below). If I have a 64 bit windows server can I use the 64 bit version with Mapnik and the ogcserver? Also the only version of Apache for Windows is 32 bit which is what I have installed on my server.

Thanks,

Hi John,

The Mapnik bindings support python 2.5 --> 3.x (in trunk). However to support a given major version the bindings must be built against the headers of a major python version.

Only bindings built against python 2.5 and 2.6 are currently available for the windows binaries (and the mac binaries).

But, you could create a ticket at trac.mapnik.org requesting 2.7 support so that we consider it before the next release.

On the Mapnik 0.7.1 installation page (listed below) it says that only Python 2.5 or 2.6 can be used but I noticed that Python 2.7 is now the latest stable version under the 2+ versions.

Can Python 2.7 be used with Mapnik 0.7.1?

Thanks,

John Mitchell
