[mapserver-users] Blank Map Image/Reference Image OK

[Chuck Bokath]

Hi,
 
I have mapserver 3.5, and PHP/Mapscript installed with Apache1.3.12 as the
webserver.
 
The problem I am having is that I can display my Image.gif during
mode=reference, but when
I use mode=map, I get a blank Image. I have been trying to figure this one
out for a good long time, going through the listserv, and the such, but I am
completely stumped. Could it be my extent is incorrect? Do I need a
shapefile for the MapObject? 
 
Here is a snippet of my php app
 
======================================

$map = ms_newMapObj("MetroAtl.map");
 
//print $map->numlayers;
// phpinfo();
 
$img = $map->drawReferenceMap(); <<=== Renders a .gif Image Correctly
 
[ snip 
$img = $map->draw(); <<== when this is uncommented, it does not render an
Image
]
$url = $img->saveWebImage(0, 0);
printf("<IMG SRC=%s WIDTH=%d HEIGHT=%d>\n", $url, $map->width,
$map->height);
=======================================
 
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
 
Here is my .map file
