It is expected.
Many (most?) TMS/WMS for OSM are just quick scripts made up to "make it
work" in JOSM/Potlach, which do not support the full WMS/TMS specification.
Especially TMSes are mostly just a file system with tiles accessible by the
net, without much of a "web service" behind.

If only Herman would be so kind as to asking our questions, we might help
him.
Just getting a log (by appending, e.g., "--log c:\temp\merkaartor.log") and
putting it in a ticket at "http://merkaartor.be/projects/merkaartor/issues"
might give me a clear idea of what is happening...
