tile is awaiting re-render: 0
& I've put in some ;) work on this tile last week. It shows on Osmarender
tiles, & has done all week; admittedly with holes as I go up the learning
curve, but the Mapnik show no change whatever.
Clearing my cache gets me a server error when I try the view image / status.
I suspect that I have a cached old image, the server gave me a new status when
it could & has now run out of puff, but Firefox was using that old cache when
it couldn't get through?
So, I guess it's worth trying the clear cache (prefs, advanced) if you think
your tile should be there now.
