I've built GDAL so many times but I'm not know how to add MBTiles Driver support.

The source used was http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/2.1.3/ . But after build I still unable to read or write mbtiles files.

[root@localhost geo]# gdalinfo  Test.mbtiles
ERROR 4: `Test.mbtiles' not recognized as a supported file format.

gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'Test.mbtiles'.

Some additional info:

Version:

[root@localhost ~]# gdal-config --version 2.1.3

dep-libs

[root@localhost ~]# gdal-config --dep-libs -ljpeg -lpng -L/usr/lib64 -lpq -lz -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl -lpcre -lxml2 -lz -lm -ldl

    Sqlite seems to required. Do you have that in your build?

  • From gdal help pages: "GDAL/OGR must be compiled with OGR SQLite driver support, and JPEG and PNG drivers."

    please add the config settings used (gdal-config --dep-libs for example)

You can try this way, it helped me.

Append repository for libspatialite5 and libgeos-c1 to source list (if it does not exist)

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu vivid main universe

then install dependencies

sudo apt update

libspatialite5 depend on libgeos-c1 (>= 3.4.2), so in my case it is

sudo apt install libspatialite5 libgeos-c1 libspatialite-dev  spatialite-bin sqlite3

cd to your GDAL folder

$ cd gdal-2.1.3/

make configuration

./configure --with-spatialite --with-sqlite

run

make

and then

sudo make install

Thanks user30184 and Dmitriy Litvinov. More information about this case you can find Convert .tif to .mbtiles using python/GDAL
