I'm setting up a custom tile server using OpenstreetMaps and Mapnik. I've been able to successfully setup the server and serve tiles using it. I'm using the OSM-Bright style right now.
I would like to use the MapBox Streets style or a custom style built on MapBox Studio with this server. I tried uploading the custom style to the server and pointed the XML directive in renderd.conf to the project.xml in my style. I cleared the cache and restarted renderd and apache but the new style does not render. There are no errors or warnings in the log.
Is there something I might be missing or a tutorial somewhere which I can follow to do this?

MapBox Studio creates and edits
CartoCSS
style-sheets, and mapnik uses their own SLD xml styles. Here is a small info aboutCartoCSS
https://github.com/mapbox/cartoMagic actually happened in this line:
If you still can't get output form mapnik, run
renderd
with-f
option, which will bring it in foreground and you will get some debug output.
