Installation of an OpenStreetMap server on CentOS 6.5

1. Preparations

• sudo yum update
• sudo yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
• sudo yum install pycairo.x86_64 pycairo-devel.x86_64 geos geos-devel protobuf-devel

2. Add EPEL and ELGIS Repositories

2.1. EPEL

• rpm -ihv epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

3. Install PostgreSQL Server and PostGIS

• Follow the Instructions here: http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/UsersWikiPostGIS21CentOS6pgdg
• sudo yum install postgis2_93.x86_64 postgis2_93-docs.x86_64 postgis2_93-client.x86_64 postgis2_93-utils.x86_64 pgrouting.x86_64

5. Build and install Mapnik

5.1. Boost C++ Libriaries

• Downlad latest Boost sources here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost and untar it
• Change to untared boost directory and run ./bootstrap.sh
• Now build boost running ./b2
• The build process will take a long time (depending on your CPU). Stay calm ;)

• psql gis < /usr/pgsql-9.3/share/contrib/postgis-2.1/postgis.sql
• psql gis < /usr/pgsql-9.3/share/contrib/postgis-2.1/spatial_ref_sys.sql
• echo "grant all on geometry_columns to apache;" | psql gis
• echo "grant all on spatial_ref_sys to apache;" | psql gis
• createuser osm -W
• echo "grant all on geometry_columns to osm;" | psql gis
• echo "grant all on spatial_ref_sys to osm;" | psql gis
• exit
• su - osm
