     31
     32 * If you don't have MapServer for windows - install it - just make sure you have the latest version of MapServer and not an old one...

    3644We'll assume that the data will be imported into a database named {{{osm}}}. We will also grant access to a {{{www-data}}} user.
    37 On a debian-ish system, this goes like:

     74===== On a windows  system =====
     751. If you haven't installed it yet - install PostgreSQL for windows with PostGIS extension (you can select to add PostGIS during the PostgreSQL setup).
     76
     772. Start-->"Program"-->"PostgreSQL 8.x"-->"pgAdmin III".
     78
     793. Connect to the server.
     80
     814. Go to the server's "Databases" tree node, right click, "New Database...", a window titled "New Database..." will be opened.
     82
     835. Enter "osm" in the name field.
     84
     856. Select the template "template_postgis" in the template field combo box.
     86
     877. Press the "OK" button on the new database window.
     88
     898. Select with the mouse the new osm database under the Databases subtree.
     90
     919. From the main menu select: Tools-->"Query tool".
     92
     9310. Enter the following text in the "Query tool":

     96create user "www-data" with password 'www-data';
     97}}}
     98
     9911. Press F5 to run the query.
     100
     101Leave the "Query tool" on - you will need it later to run more queries.
     102
    64103==== Importing the OSM data ====
    65  * Install the [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osm2pgsql Osm2pgsql] helper program
     104 * Install the [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osm2pgsql Osm2pgsql] helper program
     105 
     106 * On windows make sure that PROJ_LIB environment variable is define to the location of your epsg file (In some case the path is: "C:\ms4w\proj\nad") - else you will get a "Projection code failed to initialise" error.
    66107
    67108 * Run the importation process (as the postgres user) (this will take some time, depending on your processing power and the quantity of data you want to import):

    83127
    84128 Then proceed with postprocessing:

     130===== On a debian-ish system =====
    86131{{{
    87132# cat mapserver-utils-read-only/postprocess.sql | psql -d osm

    89134
     135===== On windows systems system =====
     1361. Open the file named postprocess.sql in a text editor.
     1372. Copy the text to the "Query tool".
     1383. Press F5 to run the query.

    91140== Creating the Mapfile ==
    92141
    93 checkout the mapfile and dependencies from http://code.google.com/p/mapserver-utils/source/checkout
    94 
    95 this is a work in progress mapfile, that compiles a template and a style file into a full-blown MapServer mapfile. The supplied Makefile supposes that the C preprocessor is installed on your system. The ''fonts.lst'' file contains the path to the two fonts used: adapt to reference similar fonts if the ones in the file don't exist on your system.
     142Open the folder of "osm-mapserver utils" you downloaded earlier.
