A typical mbtiles creation call would look like this (all on one line):
meta2tile --mbtiles
--meta name='Paris'
--meta type=raster
--meta format=png
--meta version=1.0
--meta bounds='2.0,48.5,2.8,49.1'
--meta description='OpenStreetMap tiles for Paris, France'
/var/lib/mod_tile/default
/media/test/tissd/mbtiles/wz12.mbtiles
The --meta
thingies do not influence meta2tile's behaviour, but some mbtiles consumers will insist on this information being present. Changing anything in the source code should not be necessary (you'd usually do a -DWITH_MBTILES on the compiler comamnd line).
from meta2tile.
Apparently some applications use a flipped Y axis with mbtiles files. Mapbox's mb-util package will by default create the same style of mbtiles file as meta2tile, but supports a --scheme
command line option that lets you request a "tms" scheme which has a flipped axis (see https://github.com/mapbox/mbutil). A pull request to add such a command line option to meta2tile would be viewed favourably. If you're looking for quick hack, modify

from meta2tile.
When I use meta2tile to make lots of stand alone tiles from the meta tiles, like this:
./meta2tile /var/lib/mod_tile/default /media/test/tissd/mbtiles/
all those subdirs and tiles are corrext (z,x,y).
.../mbtiles/12 (zoom)
.../mbtiles/12 / 0 to .../mbtiles/12/4095
and each file below those dirs consist of tiles numbered from 158 to 2847
which correspond with the coordinates given to render_list when creating the meta tiles.
If it is a flipped Y axis problem when creating mbtile files, why is not same problem happening when creating lots of single tiles from the meta tiles - using meta2tile (works flawlessly)?
The meta tiles have been created using render_list after a "standard" import from planet pbf - where the recipy was found here:
https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/openstreetmap-tile-server-ubuntu-20-04-osm
I will look closer into the tiles in the generated mbtiles file - to see if the tiles have been flipped, and report back.

I cannot explain what you describe. The code determines the Y coordinate in

Hi again. Looked more closely into the generated mbtile file that was generated by the meta2tile file where I changed two lines.
Looks like you are correct about the y axis flipping.
tile_column = 2164
tile_row = 2886, but should have been 1209
control (all this is zoom level 12):
4095 - 1209 = 2886.
When I downloaded the files that I used from this repository, I just went here:
https://github.com/geofabrik/meta2tile
then I clicked on the file meta2tile.c,
then clicked on the RAW button, and then right-clicked and saved the file.
Then repeated the same with the header files.
Probably not a normal way to do it, but should that not be okay to do?
I did the downloads yesterday.
UPDATE: Just checked both the original meta2tile.c and the one I changed - both have the code intact regarding the ty variable.
I'll try the mbutil program, like you suggested.
Thanks a lot for the quick replies.

Okay, thouth I should give it a try by using
git clone https://github.com/geofabrik/meta2tile.git
then when I run make I got fatal error: zip.h: No such file or directory
So I removed -DWITH_ZIP and -lzip (not needed by me anyway).
then make again and it gets compiled.
Then I do this:
./meta2tile --mbtiles /var/lib/mod_tile/default /media/test/tissd/mbtiles/planet-z12.db
and the mbtile is generated.
BUT - I get the exact same problem as earlier - with the flipped y axis in the mbutil file.
So now I will try using mbutil to make a mbtile file from the many single.
from meta2tile.
Using mbutil (with --scheme=tms ) on the stand alone tiles generated by meta2tile fixed the flipped y issue. Thanks a lot for that quick fix suggestion. Next now will be to create a pull request so hopefully we can get the tms option in meta2tile. I will enter that request tomorrow.

and add a logic like https://github.com/mapbox/mbutil/blob/2fc4161f9be890a65d07f5e7b2ed0c8a0a123ed6/mbutil/util.py#L16-L17.
When I go to "Pull requests" I see this message:
"If you know how to fix an issue, consider opening a pull request for it."
Well, I do not know how to fix the issue in question (in meta2tile), and when I click the button "New pull request" I do not get to a place where I can enter a pull request. So I cannot create the pull request you mentioned.
So, perhaps you could create the pull request and add a command line option to meta2tile: --scheme, and if set to tms will make flipped y axis.
from meta2tile.
The "pull request" is for if you have solved the issue. If you cannot solve the issue and just want someone else to solve it, then things are ok as they are, we'll just leave this issue open until someone has the time to fix it.
