As everyone here is surely aware, the name of the Gulf of Mexico is now the Gulf of America. I have an extremely ancient osm tile server hailing from 2017 that still receives some use but has never been updated since then. It basically followed the instructions from switch2osm (like this one here at https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-16-04-2-lts/ ).
The name "Gulf of Mexico" only appears in two tiles at zoom level 3, so I really just need those two tiles updated. I don't really have the time/resources to go into this server and fully upgrade it to the latest everything. The planet file is from 2017. It's using a particularly old stylesheet that isn't supported anymore (based on https://github.com/MapQuest/MapQuest-Mapnik-Style). I had a crazy idea, why don't I just go into its postgres database and update some planet_osm_point records and invalidate the mod_tile cache? So I did that, but it isn't working. The gulf's osm id is 305639190, so this updates the point record. update planet_osm_point set "name" = 'Gulf of America' where osm_id = 305639190; To invalidate the cache, I tried two approaches, changing the zoom 3 meta file filetime: touch -t 200001011000 /mnt/tileserver/mod_tile/the-stylesheet-name/3/0/0/0/0/0.meta I also tried render_expired w/ deleting the meta file: printf "3/1/3\n3/2/3" | render_expired --map the-stylesheet-name --min-zoom 3 --max-zoom 3 --tile-dir /mnt/tileserver/mod_tile --delete-from 3 --verbose And still, it says Gulf of Mexico. I restarted apache, I restarted the server, it just keeps saying Gulf of Mexico. I don't believe it's also running mapproxy (didn't see any reference to it in the apache configs) or any other cache in front of it. Render stats do go up when I access the tile url directly and logging appears in ./var/log/syslog. I'm hoping someone on this mailing list might have another idea to try. Or perhaps knows why it seems to be pulling the old string out of somewhere else. -- Peter Townsend Senior Software Developer
