[Mapserver-users] mapserv SDE 8.3 interface

Clayton,

You most likely haven't added the SDE client's library directory into your
library path.

If there's no security/multi-user concerns, just add said path to
/etc/ld.so.conf, and run ldconfig ... This makes the libs globally
available.

Otherwise, look at the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH ... if you have
one, add the path to the SDE lib files to it, or create/export it with said
path in it.

If you do this in your own shell environment, ldd will now work and find the
libraries.

Note that if you go this route, you will also need to make sure the
webserver has the environment variable set, which is done in Apache usin the
SetEnv or PassEnv directives.

Good luck!
J.F.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] mapserv SDE 8.3 interface



I am putting together a mapserver prototype for a current application that I
implemented in ArcIMS.  I have searched the web and the MapServer email list
archives for help with this problem to no avail.

I am trying to get mapserver up and running with an ArcSDE interface.  I
have been able to compile mapserver with SDE libraries but when I try to run
mapserv from the command line or the web server I get the following message:

./mapserv: error while loading shared libraries:  libsde83.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory.

When I execute ldd ./mapserv I get the following ArcSDE library related
messages:

libsde83.so => not found
libpe83.so => not found
libssg83.so => not found

I am running all of this on Linux RedHat 9 on an IBM Thinkpad model A31.

FYI, here are my configuration options for mapserv:

./configure --with-sde=/usr/local/arcsde/sdeexe83 --with-sde-version=83
--with-sde=/usr/local --with-gd=/usr/local --with-php=/usr/local/php-4.3.3
--with-proj=/usr/local

One thing I have not done is set up an ArcSDE connection to the database on
the prototype machine.  I will be looking into that next.  Could that be the
problem?

I am posting this message now in case I am missing something other than an
ArcSDE connection to the database.

Any help is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Clay
