Hi Paul,
I wanted to report that routing through Europe is broken. I have noticed it in December 2009, but did not report it then because I thought that my nüvi got broken.
I think that we have two variables at play here: software revisions (mkgmap and splitter) and data revisions (Geofabrik extracts).
Do you happen to have old europe.osm.bz2 files lying around? Do they process fine with current splitter and mkgmap? It could be that the data (or the mkgmap default style) has grown so much that more stuff is pulled in and some internal limit is exceeded.
You might be right. Sorry, I have no old copies of europe.osm.bz2 to check it.
For what it is worth, in early 2009 I was able to compile a routable Finland in 2 tiles (and soon thereafter in 3 tiles). Now I need 6 tiles.
I generate my maps always with latest svn HEAD using the following commands: java -Xmx3000m -jar splitter.jar --max-nodes=400000 europe.osm.bz2 --cache=/tmp java -Xmx3600m -jar mkgmap.jar --index --description="EU" --route --series-name=OSM_EU --remove-short-arcs --description=OSM_EU_routing --tdbfile --add-pois-to-areas *.osm.gz The maps get written to destination img file using MapSource 6.13.7.
Did you try a smaller --max-nodes? Do you archive the areas.list or the software revision numbers that you are using? That could be a good idea for the future. I keep my scripts in a local Subversion repository, but I do not archive the source .osm.bz2 file.
My scripts have not been changed in last year. I'll try again with smaller --max-nodes. Should I expect, that routing in MapSource should work? Paul -- Don't take life too seriously; you will never get out of it alive. -- Elbert Hubbard
