then you can resume with the following command:
```sh
-./utils/setup.php --index --create-search-indices --create-country-names
+nominatim import --continue indexing
```
If the reported rank is 26 or higher, you can also safely add `--index-noanalyse`.
-### PHP "open_basedir restriction in effect" warnings
+### PostgreSQL crashed "invalid page in block"
- `PHP Warning: file_get_contents(): open_basedir restriction in effect.`
+Usually serious problem, can be a hardware issue, not all data written to disc
+for example. Check PostgreSQL log file and search PostgreSQL issues/mailing
+list for hints.
-You need to adjust the [open_basedir](http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.open-basedir) setting
-in your PHP configuration (`php.ini file`). By default this setting may look like this:
+If it happened during index creation you can try rerunning the step with
- open_basedir = /srv/http/:/home/:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/
-
-Either add reported directories to the list or disable this setting temporarily by
-dding ";" at the beginning of the line. Don't forget to enable this setting again
-once you are done with the PHP command line operations.
-
-
-### PHP timzeone warnings
-
-The Apache log may contain lots of PHP warnings like this:
- `PHP Warning: date_default_timezone_set() function.`
-
-You should set the default time zone as instructed in the warning in
-your `php.ini` file. Find the entry about timezone and set it to
-something like this:
-
- ; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
- ; http://php.net/date.timezone
- date.timezone = 'America/Denver'
-
-Or
-
-```
-echo "date.timezone = 'America/Denver'" > /etc/php.d/timezone.ini
+```sh
+nominatim import --continue indexing
```
-### nominatim.so version mismatch
-
-When running the import you may get a version mismatch:
-`COPY_END for place failed: ERROR: incompatible library "/srv/Nominatim/nominatim/build/module/nominatim.so": version mismatch`
-
-pg_config seems to use bad includes sometimes when multiple versions
-of PostgreSQL are available in the system. Make sure you remove the
-server development libraries (`postgresql-server-dev-9.5` on Ubuntu)
-and recompile (`cmake .. && make`).
-
+Otherwise it's best to start the full setup from the beginning.
-### I see the error: "function transliteration(text) does not exist"
-
-Reinstall the nominatim functions with `setup.php --create--functions`
-and check for any errors, e.g. a missing `nominatim.so` file.
### I see the error: "ERROR: mmap (remap) failed"
filesystem does not fully support 'mmap'. A notable candidate is virtualbox's
vboxfs.
+### nominatim UPDATE failed: ERROR: buffer 179261 is not owned by resource owner Portal
+
+Several users [reported this](https://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim/issues/1168)
+during the initial import of the database. It's
+something PostgreSQL internal Nominatim doesn't control. And PostgreSQL forums
+suggest it's threading related but definitely some kind of crash of a process.
+Users reported either rebooting the server, different hardware or just trying
+the import again worked.
+
### The website shows: "Could not get word tokens"
The server cannot access your database. Add `&debug=1` to your URL
to get the full error message.
-### On CentOS the website shows "Could not connect to server"
-
-`could not connect to server: No such file or directory`
-
-On CentOS v7 the PostgreSQL server is started with `systemd`.
-Check if `/usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service` contains a line `PrivateTmp=true`.
-If so then Apache cannot see the `/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432` file. It's a good security feature,
-so use the [preferred solution](../appendix/Install-on-Centos-7/#adding-selinux-security-settings).
-
-However, you can solve this the quick and dirty way by commenting out that line and then run
-
- sudo systemctl daemon-reload
- sudo systemctl restart httpd
-
-
-### "must be an array or an object that implements Countable" warning in /usr/share/pear/DB.php
-
-As reported starting PHP 7.2. This external DB library is no longer maintained and will be replaced in future Nominatim versions. In the meantime you'd have to manually change the line near 774 from
-`if (!count($dsn)) {` to `if (!$dsn && !count($dsn))`. [More details](https://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim/issues/1184)

### Website reports "DB Error: insufficient permissions"
-The user the webserver, e.g. Apache, runs under needs to have access to the Nominatim database. You can find the user like [this](https://serverfault.com/questions/125865/finding-out-what-user-apache-is-running-as), for default Ubuntu operating system for example it's `www-data`.

-### Website reports "Could not load library "nominatim.so"
+### Setup fails with "DB Error: extension not found"
-Example error message
+Make sure you have the PostgreSQL extensions "hstore" and "postgis" installed.
+See the installation instructions for a full list of required packages.
-```
- SELECT make_standard_name('3039 E MEADOWLARK LN') [nativecode=ERROR: could not
- load library "/srv/nominatim/Nominatim-3.1.0/build/module/nominatim.so":
- /srv/nominatim/Nominatim-3.1.0/build/module/nominatim.so: cannot open shared
- object file: Permission denied
- CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function make_standard_name(text) line 5 at assignment]
-```
-The Postgresql database, i.e. user postgres, needs to have access to that file.
+### UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character
+
+Make sure that the operating system's locale is UTF-8. With some prebuilt
+images (e.g. LXC containers from Proxmox, see
+[discussion](https://github.com/osm-search/Nominatim/discussions/2343)) or
+images that optimize for size it might be missing.
-The permission need to be read & executable by everybody, e.g.
+On Ubuntu you can check the locale is installed:
```
- -rwxr-xr-x 1 nominatim nominatim 297984 build/module/nominatim.so
+ grep UTF-8 /etc/default/locale
```
-Try `chmod a+r nominatim.so; chmod a+x nominatim.so`.
-
-When running SELinux, make sure that the
-[context is set up correctly](../appendix/Install-on-Centos-7/#adding-selinux-security-settings).
-
-### Setup.php fails with "DB Error: extension not found"
-
-Make sure you have the Postgres extensions hstore and postgis installed.
-See the installation instruction for a full list of required packages.
-
-
-### Setup.php reports "Cannot redeclare getDB()"
-
-`Cannot redeclare getDB() (previously declared in /your/path/Nominatim/lib/db.php:4)`
-
-The message is a bit misleading as PHP needs to load the file `DB.php` and
-instead re-loads Nominatim's `db.php`. To solve this make sure you
-have the [Pear module 'DB'](http://pear.php.net/package/DB/) installed.
+And install it using
- sudo pear install DB
+```
+ dpkg-reconfigure locales
+```
### I forgot to delete the flatnodes file before starting an import.
That's fine. For each import the flatnodes file get overwritten.
-See [https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/52419/nominatim-flatnode-storage]()
+See [https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/52419/nominatim-flatnode-storage](https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/52419/nominatim-flatnode-storage)

## Running your own instance
-### Can I import multiple countries and keep them up to date?
-
-You should use the extracts and updates from https://download.geofabrik.de.
-For the initial import, download the countries you need and merge them.
-See [OSM Help](https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/48843/merging-two-or-more-geographical-areas-to-import-two-or-more-osm-files-in-nominatim)
-for examples how to do that. Use the resulting single osm file when
-running `setup.php`.
-
-For updates you need to download the change files for each country
-once per day and apply them **separately** using
-
- ./utils/update.php --import-diff <filename> --index
-
-See [this issue](https://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim/issues/60#issuecomment-18679446)
-for a script that runs the updates using osmosis.
-
### Can I import negative OSM ids into Nominatim?
-See [this question of Stackoverflow](https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/64662/nominatim-flatnode-with-negative-id).
-
-### Missing XML or text declaration
-
-The website might show: `XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity Location.`
-
-Make sure there are no spaces at the beginning of your `settings/local.php` file.
-
-
+No, negative IDs are no longer supported by osm2pgsql. You can use
+large 64-bit IDs that are guaranteed not to clash with OSM IDs. However,
+you will not able to use a flatnode file with them.
