[mkgmap-dev] Compile error

Mon May 2 17:22:58 BST 2022

Hi Dave,

the max-nodes value is already very small, so maybe something in mkgmap goes very wrong.
We probably need the input file (*.o5m) for the tile that fails and the style unless you can reproduce the
problem also with the default style.

Reducing the node count means I was adjusting the max-nodes value; I had been using a value of 160,000 for max-nodes but after getting that error message, I tried running splitter with max-nodes=120,000 and 100,000 nodes but that had zero effect on the error message. There were more tiles generated by splitter but the same error resulted.

I've attached my splitter logs and the DJS.CFG file

Thanks for the help

Hi Dave,

what do you mean with "I've tried reducing the size of the node count but that had no effect"? A smaller --max-nodes value for splitter should always have an effect:
More / different tiles. Maybe it just didn't change the size of the problematic tile?

So, if you don't want to "reduce the amount of information included in the map" which means
changing the style or options like --reduce-points, --levels etc, your only option is to tell splitter to produce smaller tiles.
That is done with the --max-nodes option or maybe allow trimming if the problematic tile contains a huge area with sea only.

Can't say much more without knowing the content of the problematic tile and content of DJS.cfg.

Hi,

I'm not on this list anymore but I'm having a problem with mkgmap that I'm unable to understand or fix.

I'm getting this error all the time now.  "The RGN section of the map or tile is too big. The maximum size is 16777215 bytes. Try splitting the map into smaller tiles or reducing the amount of information included in the map."

I've tried reducing the size of the node count but that had no effect. Here's my command line:

java -Xmx4000m -jar mkgmap.jar -c DJS.cfg --latin1 --family-id=24566 --name-tag-list=name,alt_name,loc_name,int_name --description="Eugene" "C:\Users\Alask\Downloads\Maps\Eugene.osm" "C:\Users\Alask\Dropbox (Personal)\Mapping\24983djs.TYP"

Splitter ends normally with 56 areas for a 1.5 GB input file

Any ideas?

Please address all replies to me as well as the list membership because I was removed from this list for having "too many bounces", whatever that is but I need a solution to this problem.

Thanks in advance
