In general, The seeder can not be run on an active cache because it does
not coordinate tile generation with apache so if they both try to create
the same tiles things can get confusing and there is a chance that an
incomplete tile might get served with both writing the resulting tile
might be damaged.

Hi,

As for the root issue, are your tilesets fully preseeded or are they
populated on demand? KML superoverlays are organized in a tree, i.e.
to access a tile at zoom level N you first need to access all parent
tiles from level 0 to N-1; on an unseeded tileset with a slow wms
backend this might be a very long wait. Also please check the apache
error log for any mapcache related messages.
Thanks for the input! Sorry for the delayed reply. My tiles had been
populated on demand but I finally found, installed, and ran
"mapcache_seed". It's now been running for 10+ hours now (*) but I still
get the same effect in Google Earth. (A very low-resolution view
displays when I'm zoomed out very far, but disappears as soon as I try
to zoom in.) Does the seeding have to be completely finished before
Google Earth can see beyond the top-level KML tiles?
Thanks again.

(*) I'm running this on a fairly puny virtual machine (2 cores); I guess
I should try seeding with 8 or 10 threads on an 8-core machine. I will
also try limiting my zoom levels (I suspect I'm seeding 0-17 by default)
and my spatial extent (I'm probably doing the whole globe by default --
lots of blank tiles :-).

Hello,
Not sure my earlier query made it to the list.
I'm using MapCache to serve for some satellite image products. It
sort of works: the tms and wmts browsers at /mapcache/demo show
full coverage of my data area, and let users zoom in to see full
resolution image mosaics. But the KML superoverlay (my reason for
using MapCache) only displays in Google Earth when I'm zoomed very
far out (so that the entire globe is not much bigger than a golf
ball on my screen). If I zoom in, the image usually disappears;
though sometimes when zoomed in I do see [only] the right (east)
half of my tileset, at a very low resolution.
Do you see anything wrong with my mapcache.xml (below)?
Is there anything else I should be checking?
(I'm using a simple disk cache in /tmp, with mod_mapcache from the
Ubuntu libmapcache 1.0.0-3 package; Mapserver 6.2.1 is on the same
machine, running in 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04. Mapserver works fine, and
reports no errors [I think]. My client is Google Earth 7.)
Thanks for taking a look,
