[Mapserver-users] More MapScript 3.7 problems

[Lars V. Nielsen]

Hi Dylan,

There's only one expression that covers my situation here: Doh!

I _had_ read the migration document, but it completely slipped my mind when hazzling over PHP 4.3.0 and other issues (re: my other
recent post). Thanks for turning me in the right direction.

However, I still can't seem to get it to output anything but gif. It complains over $map->draw() (saying: Warning: MapServer Error
in msDrawMap(): Unable to initialize image. in c:\...\map.php on line 308). I've copy'n'paste'd the example in the OutputFormat
guide, only changing the IMAGETYPE setting to e.g. "jpeg".

I'm currently having to run MapScript 3.7 under PHP 4.2.3, and that might be the cause of the problem as well.

I'm sure it's something rather simple, but I can't see what it is right now (i.e. Sunday evening).

Best regards/Med venlig hilsen
