Error when calling gdal2tiles
Bas
and starting the shell I tried the command "gdal2tiles --help"
Then I get this error: "This application has failed to start because
ippj-5.3.dll was not found, re-installing the application may fix this
problem."
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\gdal-dev\bin\gdal2tiles.py", line 42, in
<module>
import gdal
File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\gdal-dev\pymod\gdal.py", line 2, in <module>

File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\gdal-dev\pymod\osgeo\gdal.py", line 7, in
<module>
import _gdal
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
Where should I put this file? Or is there another problem?
Thanks, Bas

The error seems to be related to Intel Integrated Performance
Primitives library and OSGeo4W.
Is it possible that you installed libjpeg-ipp package instead of
libjpeg during the gdal-dev installation of OSGeo4W?
I reported the issue on osgeo4w-dev mailing list and I created a
ticket at OSGeo4W trac after discussing problem with FrankW. The
solution will appear here:
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/27
I would kindly ask anybody who has this problem to join the discussion
on that website and help to localize the problem.
I am not able to reproduce it on my own computer.

but now on mobile centrino instead of on P4.
Will try it later on Win2000 maybe.
I hope to get it installed and running somewhere.
Thanks and cheers,

Can you please try to uninstall your OSGeo4W (delete the C:\OSGeo4W
directory) and try installation again according the
http://help.maptiler.org/betatest/.
After you choose Advanced install and and instalation of "gdal-dev"
package in OSGeo4W installer:
Can you please have a look that the "libjpeg" package is selected and
the "libjpeg-ipp" is NOT SELECTED in the "Libs" tree?
I receive the same error as you when I install libjpeg-ipp package.
But it is not installed by default on my computer.
Frank asked for that here:
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/27
Thanks for cooperation

I did exactly what you suggested. And it did something good, because
the error was gone. Unfortunately, other error messages appeared. When
calling "gdal2tiles --help", some modules could not be found.
- This application failed to start because NCSEcw.dll was not found.
- This application failed to start because sde.dll was not found.
The command did not halt, the help actually appeared. But before the
help text, it displays errors.
Can't load requested DLL: gdal_ECW_JP2ECW.dll
Can't load requested DLL: gdal_SDE.dll
I continued trying to convert a JPG to tiles, but I did not succeed.
But I'm unsure this did not succeed because my commands were not right
or because of these errors.
Is it possible to give me a command and an image file that should have
the expected outcome? For example google map tiles?
This was my command:
C:\Documents and Settings\Bas>gdal2tiles --zoom=10-15 f:
\iA_WebTrends_2007_2_1600x1024.gif --webviewer=google --
googlekey=ABQIAAAASI9R9ZRkeu9yk_CFPnSkhhTwM0brOpm-
All5BF6PoaKBxRWWERRFgw7Rp2PHFzTB88qDSTGmizTkIg
It resulted in:
gdal2tiles.py: error: Please convert this file to RGB/RGBA and run
gdal2tiles on the result.
From paletted file you can create RGBA file (temp.vrt) by:
gdal_translate -of vrt -expand rgba f:
\iA_WebTrends_2007_2_1600x1024.gif temp.vrt
then run:
gdal2tiles temp.vrt
The error messages I noted before in this message were throwing as
well.
Thanks,
Bas

- you did not uninstall properly the old version of OSGeo4W (those DLL
stayed in C:\OSGeo4W\ - delete the whole tree before reinstalling)
- or you have chosen in the installation also packages 'gdal' and/or
'gdal-ecw' and 'gdal-sde**'.
Please, DO NOT CHOOSE any other packages then 'gdal-dev' during installation!

I guess what you are trying to process is this file:
http://bigpicture.typepad.com/comments/files/iA_WebTrends_2007_2_1600x1024.gif
It is not a map, it is just an image, so you would like to have pan
and zoom web interface for standalone picture without georeference.
That means you need tiles in profile "raster", overlay for Google Maps
or Google Earth does not make sense in this case.
Command would be:
gdal2tiles -p raster iA_WebTrends_2007_2_1600x1024.gif
It will again tell you:

Please just do what gdal2tiles is telling you to do, run command:
gdal_translate -of vrt -expand rgba iA_WebTrends_2007_2_1600x1024.gif temp.vrt
and then what you wanted:
gdal2tiles -p raster temp.vrt
This middle step would not be necessary later on in the stable
version. I am embedding the -expand rgba functionality directly into
the application right now.

For geodata you can have a look at the www.maptiler.org website and
links like "Source file: USGS DRG maps" or "Source file:NOAA RNCs".
Command for Google Maps overlay is just "gdal2tiles file.tif".
In case you are not familiar with geographic data, terms like geodetic
datum, map projection etc., please give up the testing of
GDAL2Tiles/MapTiler pre-versions and wait till January for more stable
version with the installer and GUI...
Thank you for your cooperation in testing...

Thanks for pointing things out.
My installation was probably too extended. Just installing the gdal-
dev package as extra was doing th trick. Perhaps that can be explained
on the betatest page somewhere? I tried creating tiles and it works
like a charm.
Thanks so much, and I can't wait to play around with the GUI tool.

What exactly do you suggest to add to the betatest page?
I still don't know what steps you did before.. can you please describe
me what you did that you ran into troubles during installation?

Nice to hear that.

I can't wait to have it finished but unfortunately it is a lot of work.

Again, thanks a lot.

I updated http://help.maptiler.org/betatest/, I hope it is more correct now.

When you select only "gdal-dev" package during the installation on
your computer is the "libjpeg-ipp" selected as well automatically? Do
you have to manually deselect that one to finish correct installation
of gdal-dev?
Because if yes we have to repair that in OSGeo4W installer... On my
computers "libjpeg-ipp" is not selected by default so the only thing I
have to do is to choose "gdal-dev" only. Nothing more nothing less.

The betatest page is updated very well. It would help me get it to work on my machine.
When installing as default, "libjpeg-ipp" is not selected. That is ok as it is. It behaves as you describe.
All the best with the improvements you make!
