Re: [mapnik] Mapnik error on RHEL 5

[Dane Springmeyer]

What does this command return?

ldd /usr/local/lib/libboost_python.so.1.51.0

My hunch is that will show linking of libboost python to the wrong python version. And or, mapniks python binding are not linked correctly to python 2.6.

Hi,

I have a problem and cannot seem to find a solution. I have installed Boost 1.51 on a RHEL 5 server. Running python 2.6. I have compiled boost with the python version 2.6 using a config file and reinstalled mapnik 2.1.0. The only dependency is seem to miss is sqlite which it does go ahead to install. So i have mapnik-config returning the valid version. On heading to python

from mapnik import * i get the following error

hey got this problem ImportError: /usr/local/lib/libboost_python.so.1.51.0: undefined symbol: Py_InitModule4

any one with possible remedies?
