[Mapserver-users] mapserv4.0 and mygis (mysql)

Wed Aug 20 16:40:15 EDT 2003

Hello

Is anybody using mapserv4.0 to request maps from a mysql database? I'm
desperately looking
for some pointers to resolve the following error.

My error: "Premature end of script headers: mapserv, referer:"

I have compiled mapserv --with-mysql=yes, created a database called
mapserver, imported
the map 'roads_n' using Atilla's perl script, shp2mysql.pl. Then I used
"grant all privileges...."
fo the user mapserver. When I do a test 'mysql -h ctech -u
mapserver -pmapserver69' it
works fine and I can "select * from" all the tables. When I try and retrieve
the maps
from mysql using mapserv I get the "Premature...." errors.

Any ideas would be much appreciated!!
Thanks

My setup:
	Redhat8
	Mapserv4.0
	mysql  Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.52, for pc-linux-gnu (i686)

This is my 'submit' form which calls the map:
