modRana 0.54.7 has been released!

This is just a bugfix release that fixes an issue with using the OSM Scout Server for offline tile rendering.

Previously modRana used its default tile download timeout (10 seconds) also for the OSM Scout Server locally rendered tile layers. In some cases (especially if many new tiles were requested at once) OSM Scout Server might not be able to render the tile in time and the tile download requests would time out. ModRana would then retry the tile download like it does with normal online tile downloads, making OSM Scout Server even more overloaded and effectively asking it to render the tile again. :P

Thanks a lot to Rinigius for reporting the issue and providing the initial version of the fix!

To fix this I've added support for having different timeout parameters for each map layer and simply disabled time download timeouts for the OSM Scout Server layers. This way online tile downloads should time out after 10 seconds as before (or you can set your own timeout now in map_config.conf) and OSM Scout Server should now have enough time to finish tile rendering without being asked for the same tile multiple times.

Changelog
Code:
- don't timeout while OSM Scout Server is still rendering a tile
