[Mapserver-users] Raster files problem

[Jan Hartmann]

Omry,

You have to set STATUS DEFAULT to get a visible map. With STATUS ON, you 
have to specify the layer explicitly in the URL 
(.../mapserv?map=...&layer=...)

MapServer ignores non-existing raster files when it is compiled with the 
--enable-ignore-missing-data flag (the default). I always compile with 
--disable-ignore-missing-date for development, and only ignore missing 
data for production.

Not seeing anything without an error is generally caused by:

- wrong extent
- status on instead of default
- incorrect raster file name
