I also updated MS4W to use Mapserver 6.0 beta5. A few quick notes/questions I ran into:<br><br><br>The GM demo showed a pink screen when first accessed. To make the demo work, I had to do two things, thought the legends are off. In geomoose_globals.map, change the OUTPUTFORMAT of jpeg to 'AGG/JPG', as GD/JPEG did not seem to be working (error:
loadOutputFormat(): General error message. OUTPUTFORMAT clause references driver GD/JPEG, but this driver isn't configured.) I couldn't tell if GD is being removed from MS6 or not. </div><div id="yiv1462582392"><br>I also had to comment out the GAP and STYLE elements in symbol.sym. Apparently, STYLE was renamed to PATTERN and moved up to the STYLE section. GAP was also moved to the STYLE section. (<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://mapserver.org/trunk/mapfile/symbol.html">http://mapserver.org/trunk/mapfile/symbol.html</a>)<br>
<br><br>GM 2.4 ships with OpenLayers 2.8 but MS4W ships with OpenLayers 2.10. (I think OSGeo4W ships with OL 2.9 or 2.10.) I pointed the GM demo to OL2.10 and received this error: "olDiv is null". Not that they have to match but could/should GM ship with OL2.10?<br>
<br><br>As far as GeoMoose goes, and assuming all of my data are local, does it matter if my own data layers are Mapserver layers or WMS layers created by Mapserver? Some of my data will be served as individual WMS layers anyway. This is proabbly more of a Mapserver/mapscript question though.<br>
