Hello everyone,<br> I want to thank everyone who helped me set up my GRASS mapserver.<br> Just wanted to express my gratitude to all.<br> These were all the steps i followed. i would be happy if this could be of some help to others.<br> <br> <DEFANGED_meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <DEFANGED_meta name="Generator" content="Kate, the KDE Advanced Text Editor"> <pre>Mapserver-4.6.2 Installation With GRASS-6.0.1 Support On Mandriva 2006 Linux OS ******************************************************************************* Prior to installing GD library, Install its dependencies. freetype-2.1.4.tar.gz libpng-1.2.8-config.tar.gz libjpeg62-devel-6b (rpm) libiconv-1.9.1.tar.gz 1.Install gd-2.0.33.tar.gz tar xvfz gd-2.0.33.tar.gz cd gd-2.0.33 ./configure --with-png=/usr/local/lib --with-freetype=/usr/local/lib --with-jpeg=/usr/lib --with-libiconv-prefix=/usrlocal/lib make su ma!

-with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql --without-odbc --without-fftw make make install 5. Install GDAL/OGR GRASS plugin The plugin needs the GRASS libraries to be linked to /usr/local/lib Do this with something like " cd /usr/local/lib ; ln -s /home/siddhesh/grass-6.0.0/lib/*.so . " Then run ldconfig after linking. Make sure the grass library path(/home/siddhesh/grass-6.0.1/lib) is added to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable before running the ./configure tar xvfz gdal-grass-1.3.1.1.tar.gz cd gdal-grass-1.3.1 ./configure --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config --with-grass=/home/siddhesh/grass-6.0.0 make su make install * Check if GDAL finds the plugin: gdal_translate --formats | grep -i grass GRASS (ro): GRASS Database Rasters (5.7+) * Check if the GRASS libs are found by the plugin. All libraries should be found (maybe you forgot to run 'ldconfig' !
if
you didn't install from RPMs?): ldd /usr/lib/gdalplugins/grass_GRASS.so ldd /usr/lib/gdalplugins/ogr_GRASS.so 6. Install Mapserver with GRASS support tar xvfz mapserver-4.6.2 ./configure --with-proj --with-ogr --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config --with-gd=/usr/local/lib --with-png=/usr/local/lib make su make install 7.

root. Just run the following command (as root) /sbin/ldconfig /usr/local/lib -v Mapserver should work now. Remember: When you stop your server you may have to redo this. 9. Setting up the Demo Mapserver as shown on the following website: http://grass.itc.it/start.html * In your sytem, locate the file .grassrc6 containing GISDBASE: /home/siddhesh/grass60/GrassData60 LOCATION_NAME: spearfish60 MAPSET: PERMANENT MONITOR: x1 GRASS_GUI: tcltk *Determine $DOCUMENT_ROOT of your server (here: /var/www/html/ ) *Copy .grassrc6 to the $DOCUMENT_ROOT of your server. This is done as follows: cp -f /home/siddhesh/.grassrc6 /var/www/html/ *Create a link to your GRASS database as follows. cd /var/www/ ln -s /home/siddhesh/grass60/GrassData60 GrassData60 *Create a tmp directory in /var/www/html/ cd /var/www/html/ mkdir tmp chmod 777 tmp *Download the sample server (270kb)
