Last week I tried everything to build up a tile server but the Tile Server I was using (tileserver-gl) doesn't work for the 2012 r2 WS Server.

After that i tried it with leaflet but I couldn't figure it out. And I also tried it with docker but docker requires the WS Server 2016.

I need a tileserver there you can edit the style and using your own .osm, where the map is stored in. What i tried: tileserver-gl, leaflet (can't use my own style and map), brouter, mapbox, mapnik.

How can I edit the style from the map so that I can make the water red or green?

I need a tileserver using my own .osm files and also to configure my own style.

  • Does it need to be Windows? If not, read switch2osm.org/serving-tiles and set up a Linux VM.

  • @scai It has to be Windows and also windows 2012 r2. And I think when i set it up on a Virtual Machine the performance of the server is bad. Because I need to render the whole river Rhein. The river starts in Switzerland and ends in the Baltic Sea.

  • The performance will be lower compared to a native installation. However you will definitely have less problems when staying on Linux.

  • But switching to linux is no option :(. This is why I ask here the question. @scai

On Windows it won't be straightforward, but you're not the first person to have tried. I'm not aware of a "soup to nuts" set of instructions, but I'd start reading here. That's an OSM help question about tile serving on windows, and the links from that and the other questions that that user asked are the most comprehensive list that I'm aware of.
