We'll need to get a backtrace out to know what happened. On linux you do that by first doing:

ulimit -c unlimited

Then, run the process again to trigger the crash. A core file should then show up in your working directory.

Then do:

sudo apt-get install gdb gdb which node core thread apply all bt

The thread apply all bt might need to be scrolled. Capture all the output and share in a gist then link here.

With nodejs it gives similar output

add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js -y
apt-get update
apt-get install -y nodejs
git clone git@github.com:mapbox/tilemill.git
cd tilemill
npm install

@nickponline thanks a lot for that backtrace. This is a problem in the latest TileMill which pulls in node-mapnik at 1.4.4 or 1.4.5. You can workaround it by downgrading to node-mapnik 1.4.3 by editing the package.json and then doing rm -rf node_modules/mapnik && npm install mapnik@1.4.3. Tracking a fix at https://github.com/mapnik/node-mapnik/issues/265

Thanks for the report and workaround. Just ran into this as well, and the workaround seems to work. Just clarifying for anyone else that the line to change in package.json is from:

"mapnik": "~1.4.4",

to

"mapnik": "1.4.3",

springmeyer commented 10 years ago

This problem is now finally fixed in master tilemill by using the new node-mapnik release: https://github.com/mapbox/tilemill/commit/ae64a113dac7c7dfa4df86baf918cc75e1c01c22. More info on the backstory at https://github.com/mapnik/node-mapnik/issues/265 and https://github.com/mapnik/node-mapnik/issues/251

So if I am running into this problem trying to export a map as a PDF using TileMill on OSX , what should I do?

(I'm a complete mapping newbie)

springmeyer commented 10 years ago

@diegozaks - I don't think you are hitting this exact issue. Can you please create a new issue and in that issue describe in detail:

What TileMill version / How did you install it
What OS X version are you running
Do SVG exports work? Do PNG exports work?
What do the logs show after trying a failed PDF export (https://www.mapbox.com/tilemill/docs/manual/usage/#mac_os_x)
Does your map use labels?

diegozaks commented 10 years ago

Done! https://github.com/mapbox/tilemill/issues/2353

I appreciate any help!
