Hi all, I was trying prerender some tiles using the render_list command. But it is showing the following error: socket connect failed for: /var/run/renderd/renderd.sock "renderd" directory has the right permission to create and connect to the socket. But I am not sure why is not working. Please help me to find out the reason. Thanks SJP asked 16 Feb '18, 21:37  subinjp7 |
One Answer:
This appears to be essentially a duplicate of this question. You're trying to use a cloud service for something it's not really designed for. answered 08 Mar '18, 10:51  SomeoneElse ♦ |
Silly question - do /var/run/renderd and /var/run/renderd/renderd.sock exist? In https://switch2osm.org/manually-building-a-tile-server-16-04-2-lts/ you have to manually create /var/run/renderd the first time around. If you haven't set things up to create it at startup it won't exist.
I have already done that. And renderd folder has right permission also to create socket and connect to it. But I am not sure what is supposed to be inside renderd.sock file. When I open it with vim editor, it shows an empty file with a warning permission denied.
