Subject: [Osmlib-user] Export Citynodes
Message-ID: <200901210145.05007.NatanaelA@gmx.de>

Hello,
I've tried to export the citynodes into a shapefile with the following 
rules-file:

setup :Shp do
	point :staedte do
		string :type, 8
		string :id, 20
		string :name, 300
	end
end

nodes do
	if place == 'city' || place == 'town' || place == 'village'
		:staedte << {:id => id, :name => name[0,300], :type => place}
	end
end

I ran this on the Saarland-File 
[http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe/germany/saarland.osm.bz2], but when 
I opened the .shp in openjump I got the error:
"Keine Beschreibung vorhanden (EOF Exception)"
How else can I check the shapefile, or is there something with my rules-file 
wrong?

be blessed
Natanael

Can't see any obvious errors. Try to check the shapefile with ogrinfo.
