hi Aleksey Deryagin

Thanks for your sharing, i follow your instruction, everything work fine until i try to compile mapnik with make . It's said:

In file included from benchmark/include/bench_framework.hpp:9:
deps/../test/cleanup.hpp:14:10: fatal error: 'cairo.h' file not found
#include <cairo.h>
         ^~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
scons: *** [benchmark/src/normalize_angle.o] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.
make: *** [Makefile:48: mapnik] Error 2

Have you got any idea about it?
Thanks!

After research for a couple days, i figure out that, somehow compile path does not correct, so and execute the following command before exec make: export CPATH=/root/osm_tile_server/mapnik/mason_packages/.link/include/cairo/:/root/osm_tile_server/mapnik/mason_packages/.link/include/freetype2/
Note: Please correct path with your enviroment.

But, it go to another issuse ;(

CentOS 7/8 in not very friendly for OSM, so after spent time in struggle with compiling, I've switched to Docker and stay with it now: https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server.
Or try Ubuntu there are tutorilas for it: https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/

You right. It's really hard to make it worked with CentOS.
Thanks for your help and have a nice day!

Hi Aleksey,

Thanks for providing the steps for configuring the OSM on CentOS. While following the steps, I am getting error on running make command for mod_tile

Thanks in advance.
