[OSM-dev] Socket problem with osm2pgsql on Mac/Homebrew

[Michael Corey]

Thanks -- that fixes that error, and I'm getting further into the 
process. I'm now getting this:

Reading in file: us-south.osm.pbf
Entity: line 1: parser error : Document is empty

I'm wondering if it's because PBF support isn't running correctly -- 
downloading a osm.bz file to check if that helps.

If I run the command with the -r pbf flag:

osm2pgsql us-south.osm.pbf -r pbf -d border_processing_test -H /tmp/

I get:

Using projection SRS 900913 (Spherical Mercator)
Input parser `pbf' not recognised. Should be one of [libxml2, primitive].

Thanks again,
