Mapnik does not render my new ways already for a couple of day now

Dear all!

I have a question: Mapnik does not render my new ways already for a couple of day now.

If you look at https://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-26.8272&lon=-65.1402&zoom=13&layers=M you can see that there is a secondary road south of the Tucuman airport. In zoom level 12 this road disapears: https://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-26.8094&lon=-65.1664&zoom=12&layers=M . Marking the respective tiles as dirty did not help. Reloading the map with Control+F5 also did not help.

Do you have any other suggestions?

One Answer:

I suspect that mapnik simply doesn't render highway=tertiary_link in zoom level 12. That does NOT mean that you made an error in mapping that street NOR that mapnik is buggy. It's just a design choise. The way is in the database and other renderers (like osmarender) which make other design choices happily render the street.

Hi petschge.

Well it was a mapping error as this road should have been tertiary and not tertiary_link. Now I know at least what went wrong and it get's rendered now. Thanks!
