Hi Hanks,
I have moved this discussion to the mapserver list so sub to it if you
have not already.
mapcache does not support input source s other than WMS at the moment.
BUT there is a hackish way to work around that if you need to:
You should be able to setup a mapserver WMS service with a LAYER using
GDAL 1.7.0+ configured to pull OSM tile server as input.
So mapserver requests the OSM tiles and assembles an image in response
to a WMS request it receives from mapcache and mapcache then chops the
image back into tiles and stores them in the cache in response to your
OpenLayers making tile requests to mapcache.
I have not done this but I suspect that it would work very well and
while it sounds convoluted it should not be that hard to figure out the
details if you ask on this list when you have a problem.

Hey, All:
I want to implement TileCache into my system. I installed TileCache
successfully into my window server and can work well with default
layer ( OpenLayers.Layer.WMS )
Now I want to use OSM layer ( OpenLayers.Layer.OSM ) instead.
I know I need to modify the config file, but things as following don't work:
[osm]
type=Mapnik
mapfile=/home/user/osm-mapnik/osm.xml
spherical_mercator=true
tms_type=google
metatile=yes
Do I need to install Mapnik as well? Or I need to change the value of
"mapfile" in Windows?
Actually, the only thing I need is the cache functionality so I can
use my map application even it's offline. ( The Cache proxy is
installed in the same laptop with the web application, so the web
application can always access to the Cache Proxy ) .
Any suggestion on add OSM into TileCache or any light-weighted
alternative of TileCache?
Thanks a lot!
Best,
Hanks
