[GIS] Installing OpenStreetMap Tile Server with Custom Projection Systems

coordinate systemmapnikopenstreetmaptiles

I am trying to install the OSM tile server on a local machine with a custom projection system like epsg:3573. For the server installation I followed this tutorial (http://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/building-a-tile-server-from-packages/) and it works fine with the default settings. For making changes, I played around with osm.xml and changed the srs information in there but still no luck.

Can anyone give me some hints on customizing the OSM tile server with a custom projection system?

I wouldn't recommend to alter the projection already at the DB level, as a lot of tools rely on the default projection for OSM: Instead try to use e.g. Mapproxy to reproject the output tiles.
