Currently I'm trying to build a very basic map server running on a Raspberry Pi (Archlinux). I've installed Mapnik and can render a png image using this simple python script:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import mapnik
stylesheet = 'world_style.xml'
image = 'world_style.png'
m = mapnik.Map(2*1024, 2*1024)
mapnik.load_map(m, stylesheet)
m.zoom_all()
mapnik.render_to_file(m, image)
print "rendered image to '%s'" % image

Using this style XML:

<map background-color="#ffeaea" srs="+proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +no_defs">

<Style name="My Style">
  <Rule>
    <PolygonSymbolizer fill="#eaeaff" />
    <LineSymbolizer stroke="rgb(25%,25%,25%)" stroke-width="1.0" />
  </Rule>
</Style>

<Layer name="world" srs="+proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +no_defs">
  <StyleName>My Style</StyleName>
  <Datasource>
    <Parameter name="type">shape</Parameter>
    <Parameter name="file">/home/pi/world/MyEurope.shp</Parameter>
    <Parameter name="extents">-180,-90,180,90</Parameter>
  </Datasource>
</Layer>

</map>

I got the shapefile from http://my5cent.spdns.de/en/beaglebone-black-raspberry-pi/einfacher-karten-server-mit-mapserver-schape-files-und-openlayers.html (Look for the 2nd section where a link to Europe SHP is shown)

Unfortunately, all I get when trying to load the map, either using leaflet or openlayers is empty.

Renderd seems to be working, and this is a sample of the logs shown:

I've tried a lot of guides out there but nothing seems to work. I've even tried changing the style xml file so that the data source used is postgres (previously importing the shp to a database and trying by rendering with the python script), with no success.

What am I doing wrong?
