Yes, that is exactly the error I was seeing too.
Okay, so rendering simple Shapefiles works (on willow):
mazder@willow:~$ OSM=/home/project/o/s/m/osm/ $OSM/tools/render \ --style $OSM/data/mapnik/shape.xml
but even with a very small stylesheet (shapefiles & place names) it stops working:
mazder@willow:~$ OSM=/home/project/o/s/m/osm/ $OSM/tools/render \ --style $OSM/data/mapnik/simple.xml
rendering bbox (-180, -85, 180, 85) in style /home/project/o/s/m/osm//data/mapnik/shape-names.xml to file map which is of type png in size 800x600
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/project/o/s/m/osm//tools/render", line 128, in <module> main() File "/home/project/o/s/m/osm//tools/render", line 81, in main mapnik.load_map(m, style) UserWarning: Could not create datasource. No plugin found for type 'postgis' in layer 'placenames-large' mazder@willow:~$
It seems mapnik was compiled before postgis was available and so doesn't know about the postgis plugin. Maybe a simple recompile would solve this issue. On this run we should add the cairo bindings to support rendering to pdf, svg & co.
