After a bit of testing (it was working once the squid got cleared) Discovered that the problem was with my Squid Webcache. It would seam that a "bug" in how zipped web pages are handled by by the osm server means that the headers are not correct. The problem also exists with Apache so its quite common (OSM does not use Apache), However I had a setting to cope with Apache (Which is set by default) but not with the what OSM uses. For anyone interested you need to set. broken_vary_encoding allow all in your squid.conf (and its probably best to read the documentation for squid as well. (Or contact your system admin) Regards Peter _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
