Hi river, i just tried to add a very simple stylesheet, just to test how 
all works. I tried /home/project/o/s/m/osm/data/mapnik/shape-names.xml

It's a very basic stylesheet, rendering only the shapefiled plus the 
names on it. I edited renderd.conf and reloaded renderd but I can't 
access the tiles: http://toolserver.org/tiles/shape-names/2/2/1

additionally, when i try to render from command line, i get an error 
message:

osm at ptolemy:~$ $HOME/tools/render --style \
   /home/project/o/s/m/osm/data/mapnik/shape-names.xml

rendering bbox (-180, -85, 180, 85) in style 
/home/project/o/s/m/osm/data/mapnik/shape-names.xml to file map which is 
of type png in size 800x600

Traceback (most recent call last):

Can you help? Thank you!
