MapServer Message

using javascript and the coordinates are noted in a hidden field. If all designated features are marked a doubleclick will end the session. After the reload a new layer is generated by mapscript using the memorised coodinates and the readout feature-IDs. In another window the list of attributes with their information is displayed and can be edited. I also thought about visualising the visible features by loading them in an javascript array. But this way requires a lot of time when a great amount of features or polygons is used. Does anyone has a more improved solution ? Any help would be appreciated.

Gianfranco, ECW support in GDAL is optional, and depends on inclusion of the ERMapper ECW SDK. I would add that it is still fairly challenging to get the SDK built on Linux, and incorporate various bug fixes needed for safe use on Linux. You might consider either waiting for a final 3.2 release of the ECW SDK (rolling in an easier build mechanism, and some bug fixes) or consider using a prebuilt distribution like the FWTools binaries for Linux which include ECW support. http://fwtools.maptools.org/ Best regards, -- ---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- I set the clouds in motion - turn up | Frank Warmerdam, warmerdam@pobox.com light and sound - activate the windows | http://pobox.com/~warmerdam and watch the world go round - Rush | Geospatial Programmer for Rent From ana.rosa.maretec at IST.UTL.PT Sun Aug 14 11:53:29 2005 From: ana.rosa.maretec at IST.UTL.PT (Ana Rosa Trancoso) Date: Fri Feb 8 15:07:55 2008 Subject: postgis or windows bug?

Yes, deegree does "only" OGC/ISO specs but if you look at the WMS spec you can do a lot of things when you follow the specification 1.1.1 in full scale. The UMN MapServer does not support User Layers for example which enables you to define further layers to be drawn on the map. Furthermore deegree follows all OGC-specifications which are necessary to build up a SDI while the UMN MapServer "only" support WMS and basic WFS and WCS - and will probably not go much further. To come back to the initial questions: In my oponion there are situations where I would choose the UMN MapServer over deegree and vice versa. If you want to set up a full SDI you often need more than just a WMS or a basic WFS, but also a Catalog Service, a WFS-Gazetteer etc. In those cases I prefer deegree since - I only have to install 1 tool - the deegree is designed to build up complex SDI whereas OGC-support has been added later to the UMN MapServer which leads to some strange situations when configuring the UMN MapServer. (for example it is not obvious that you need to define a - not even existent - template in a layers class if you want to make the layer queriable in the WMS). The UMN MapServer otherwise has much more documentation and - meanwhile - a lot of poeple around who know how to configure the UMN MapServer which leads to local user lists etc. Hence it is much easier to get help even in your mother language - which is at least in Germany rather important. Furthermore I like the possibility to script the UMN MapServer - which is not possible with deegree as far as I know. These are some aspects when you want to compare deegree and UMN MapServer. Surely there are others as well as prefered programming language etc. Silke -- Intevation GmbH Georgstrasse 4 49074 Osnabr?ck, Germany http://intevation.de http://intevation.de/~silke FreeGIS.org http://freegis.org/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Try: gdalinfo --formats to list all GDAL support formats in your build. Likely you do not have MrSID support enabled. It can be a bit involved to build in.

Craig, FastCGI is a technology that basically keeps a "cgi process" alive, and keeps feeding it new cgi requests. Depending on your configuration there may be several "cgi server" processes running with Apache doling out requests to them. The connection pooling implemented in MapServer is only within a given process, so you will generally be consuming as many connections as you have fastcgi server proecesses running. There are indeed a variety of other things in mapserver that could benefit from cross-request caching but it isn't clear that in the general case any of them would make a signifiant difference so we haven't pursued the issue.

You either have dumpattributes on or off. It would be a nice feature if you could customize the scripts that were placed on the objects or make them objects without scripts. Another feature that would be helpful would be an option to put the info in the MapObj variable on each individual layer instead of the compiled layer. That would allow you to load the layers individually and still have access to attributes like the layer name and filepath etc. -Jay Austin -----Original Message----- From: UMN MapServer Users List [mailto:MAPSERVER-USERS@LISTS.UMN.EDU] On Behalf Of Jorge Agudelo Sent: Friday, August 12, 2005 7:23 AM To: MAPSERVER-USERS@LISTS.UMN.EDU Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Swf layers Hello Everyone, It is possible to change the way mapserver generates the code for swf = layers with swfdumpattributes?, the problem is that mapserver generates = a lot of code for every object (onrollover, onrelease), this code could = be done dinamically using a for cycle when loading the swf this way it = will decrease a lot the swf size.

Message-ID: Hello All- We have been working locally with ms4w but would like to "go public". My understanding is that there are some security risks involved in using the ms4w installation as opposed to the Map Server installation. Our network administrator would like to know exactly what are the security and other issues with using ms4w before we switch to Map Server. If someone could explain this or point me to the documentation that explains it, I would be very appreciative. Thanks in advance!

In the docs is mentioned that this only works for point data. But what I want to do is to create a simple line layer from a table with x/y for the startpoint and x/y for endpoint.

FWTools is a packaged build including recent snapshots of OpenEV, MapServer, GDAL, PROJ.4 and a variety of underlying packages. It aims to be "cutting edge" with recent developments and also to include as many optional formats as practical. It also includes a complete Python instance, and python binding support for GDAL and MapServer. It should work smoothly on Windows, and most 32bit Intel Linux platforms regardless of native packaging system. More information is available at: http://fwtools.maptools.org/ Direct downloads are available from: Windows: http://www.gdal.org/dl/fwtools/FWTools099.exe Linux: http://www.gdal.org/dl/fwtools/FWTools-linux-0.9.9.tar.gz Best regards, -- ---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- I set the clouds in motion - turn up | Frank Warmerdam, warmerdam@pobox.com light and sound - activate the windows | http://pobox.com/~warmerdam and watch the world go round - Rush | Geospatial Programmer for Rent From spam at ROBL.ORG.UK Mon Aug 15 20:18:17 2005 From: spam at ROBL.ORG.UK (Rob Lee) Date: Fri Feb 8 15:07:55 2008 Subject: Label problems with draggable tiles Message-ID: Hi, I have been using some of the 'web front-end' software to mapserver recently (ka-map, maps.civicactions.net) and have noticed what could either be considered a bug or a feature of mapserver and wondered what the rest of the community thought ... ka-map generates a set of dragable tiles from mapserver via (I believe) requesting one maptile the size of the viewport and then using the GD library to cut it into smaller tiles - I believe this is to stop labels being displayed multiple times (if a set of 4 smaller tiles were requested from mapserver instead of the one large one) at larger zoom levels e.g. on a world map when zoomed into a specific country the label would appear on each of the individual country tiles generated by mapserver. This can be seen in action on the map at maps.civicactions.net if you zoom in to a high enough degree (this application requests four seperate map tiles from mapserver via javascript). I guess the reason for this is mapserver was never envisioned as being used in this way ?? Is this experience also what other used have seen or have I missed a part of the puzzle - I couldn't see any obvious solution other than the one used by ka-map. I believe it would require a modification to mapserver to enable working with tiles in this fashion ? I'm not sure what this modification would be if required - any thoughts ?

Norbert, There is currently no mechanism to create linestrings from four columns, sorry. If you can create a single column with the linestring geometry in WKT format (ie. LINESTRING(1 3,2 4)) then you could read it from a flat table. I could add the capability you are requesting as a different case if you need it badly enough.

Renaud, It should be sufficient to use the line: PROCESSING "SCALE=0.024,0.264" in your layer definition. This tells GDAL to manually scale the values from 0.024 to 0.264. The nodata areas will likely be displayed in white. If you need the nodata areas to be show transparent, then other mechanisms may be needed. For instance, gdal_translate -scale 0.024 0.280 -a_nodata 255 in/hdf.adf out.tif should rescale the image, and translate all nodata pixels to the value 255 which will be marked as nodata.

No problem I tried: 1. changing "init=epsg:31287" to "init=epsg:31467" in my map-file -> nothing changed. (I think this coult not be right, because my maps are in epsg 31287, only the German map from an other webserver might be in 31467.) I see, well if the German map is in epsg 31467 and all the other layers are in epsg 31287 this could be your problem. How are you requesting that particular layer? Is it being called from a separate mapfile containing only that layer? Or are your layers all in the same mapfile? 2. I tried to change the EPSG of the bounding box. I coult only find it in ../php/mod_changeEPSG.php?sessionID to make my epsg available in the dropdown. -> But also nothing changed. (Where can I change the setting for the bounding box himself?) What epsg is the viewer set in at the moment? Is it showing the layers in lat long? I tried to look myself but the viewer wasn't loading at the time, I guess you might be working on something. 3. I am sorry, I sended you an old mapserv.dat file. In the attachement is the new one. I think I could eliminate all the warning-messages. Well that's one error removed - What do you think about the settings of the "init=epsg:31..." and of the bounding box? - Maybe you can tell me your other suggestions, you metioned? The init=epsg should be the same projection as what the viewer is configured to be. So if the viewer is configured to show data layers in lat long the init=epsg 4326 My other suggestion would be to structure your mapfiles in this way. 1) First have one main mapfile which contains all the layers coming from your own server 2) The layers that are being requested from external servers such as the German layer define in the main mapfile and use CONNECTION in the Layer object to connect to the external server, rather than requesting the layer directly from the German mapfile. Therefore in affect you are cascading the German layer through your own mapfile to ensure that all layers are being requested with the same epsg settings. Let me know if that helps at all Gail Thx a lot and greatings from Vienna.

You could use any mapscript-flavour which updates the data-part of the layer (or creates another Raster-layer inside the mapfile) according to the calculated result of GRASS.

Message-ID: John, Just realized that the EPSG entry that I sent you was in meters, yet the name of the projection you are trying to locate has "Feet" in the name... Looks like you might be after a non-standard projection that is not defined in the EPSG file? I am not familiar with Alabama's state plane coordinate system but it looks like they are in meters, so you might have to do some local digging or define your own projection and forgo the convenience of the EPSG codes.

The current sequence is: - Turn on selected raster layers, lat/lon layer - Draw map ($map->draw) - Draw points ($point->draw) As I understand it, you have to the draw points after you draw the map. Is there another option I have not considered? I know the point layer can be drawn directly from the shape file, but the algorithm is fairly complicated. We have different symbols for different wind directions, scaling of font sizes, and more rules that would be hard to specify in the MAPFILE.

My testing area is around UTM zone-47 and zone-48. The official road shapefile is translated both zones into zone-47 (Indian 1975). My road is in zone-48 (WGS84). So, I'd like to translate my utm-48 road data into zone-47. I used: $proj48=ms_newProjectionObj("proj=utm,zone=48,ellps=WGS84,datum=WGS84,units=m,no_defs"); $proj47=ms_newProjectionObj("proj=utm,zone=47,a=6377276.345,b=6356075.413,towgs84=209,818,290,0,0,0,0,units=m,no_defs"); $line=ms_newLineObj(); $pt=ms_newPointObj(); $pt->setXY(195397,1604329); $pt->project($proj48,$proj47); $line->add($pt); $pt->setXY(195385,1604354); $pt->project($proj48,$proj47); $line->add($pt); ............. $shp->add($line); My road should overlay onto official road. But it wasn't on the right place, it shifted to the left of official road about 350m. If I use data by not translating in map file as: ............. # ------------- Official road ---------- LAYER NAME "road47" DATA "road/road47 TYPE line PROJECTION "proj=utm" "zone=47" "a=6377276.345" "b=6356075.413" "towgs84=209,818,290,0,0,0,0" "units=m" "no_defs" END CLASS COLOR 0 200 0 END END # ------------- my road ---------- LAYER NAME "road48" DATA "road/road48 TYPE line PROJECTION "proj=utm" "zone=48" "ellps=WGS84" "datum=WGS84" "units=m" "no_defs" END CLASS COLOR 0 200 0 END END ....... It works as it should be. What I've done wrong about the script above. Could I use this way to re-projection on the fly? Thank you.

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Norbert, Indeed there are currently two MapServer websites. The plone site at is still in development (user contributions welcome!) with the intent that it will live at the same location as when it is done. We plan to take care to do some URL rewriting to ensure that bookmarks to major documents (and links in books :) are not broken when the transition takes place. We are currently in the confusing time where some documents that live at one website don't live at the other and vice versa. Of course, this is not ideal. I don't have a timeframe for when the transition will take place, but my hope is that it will be done before the end of the year.

If I use data by not > translating in map file as: Krung, The error you quote sounds typical of a missing or misapplied datum conversion. Are you confident of the towgs84 value you selected? There are "handedness" issues between common european and american towgs84 parameter listings for instance. You might also want to try with towgs84=0,0,0 and see if that is closer, or futher away, or the same. Perhaps the datum shift isn't being applied, or should not be applied.

In many places cities are very close together. I have already limited it to cities with population over a certain amount so I don't end up not being able to distinguish points but in certain cases there are sufficiently large cities that I want to show that are close enough together so that their labels collide. I have a buffer of 5 pixels, so in such cases only one of the cities will show their label, and the other one won't. In one particular case though I have New York City that is pretty close to Newark, Elizibeth, and Jersey City and I have the label for Elizibeth blocking the label for New York city. How can I give New York City precedence over the smaller city? I have two classes now, one that draws cities with populations over 500,000 and the other with populations of 100,000-499999. The bigger class draws bigger citiy markers and uses bold names, the smaller pop cities use smaller labels and markers. I've tried reversing the order the classes appear in the map file, but it didn't change anything... is there any way to accomplish this?

How can I > give New York > City precedence over the smaller city? You want the records in your dbf to be in order of increasing population. MapServer will label records at the bottom of your dbf first. To do this, you have to physically sort the records by population (ascending order). There are a number of scripts to do this. If you're looking for an SERI solution, search Arc Scripts for 'sort dbf'.

The syntax is something like this : sortshp [infile] [outfile] [item] [ascending|descending] Once sorted (I beleive descending in your case) It should draw first the cities with the largest population.

Message-ID: After getting the NEXRAD data projected and working (http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/docs/radmapserver/howto.html) I wanted to get back to terraserver data. I created a very simple map file and put all of the layer statements that I could find from the mailing list for using terraserver wms. My problem is that all I get is a map with my county on it, but I think my problem is that I'm behind a proxy server. Is there a way to configure the wms client to use a proxy server? I would appreciate someone looking at my map file and seeing if it does indeed work or let me know what isn't correct. Attached is a zip file renamed to zix of my small terraserver test project If that doesn't make it through, here is my map file and the html template.

My application works with 4.7 version of mapserver in a frame layout: query results in a query frame and map drawing in a map frame. When I fire a query the first time all works fine but the following queries always return the same result even if I query another feature in the same map. It seems I have to zoom or pan to another map area to make queries work again. I also noticed a strange behaviour of TOLERANCE and TOLERANCEUNITS directives: I catch too many "Search returned no results" errors also clicking exactly on the queried feature... maybe the 2 problems are correlated?? Anyone can help me? Does anyone know if there is some query caching process or initialize method?? Thanks in advance... Lorenzo Dott.

The first thing that you can check is the time to return the results of query's, PostgreSQL is more quickly (using geom too), but an Oracle with a good tunning can be very close of the PostgreSQL performance. Exist others parameters that you need to check before to choose the data base. The architecture of Oracle is more complex(redo logs, archives log, PGA, indexes...) than PostgreSQL and it will impact in the performance, but Oracle is much more secure than PostgreSQL. I believe that the security is a factor that you need to consider. For spatial data the crucial difference between te DB's is how they implement the support of data, Oracle/Oracle Spatial use a Object Oriented to store the geom data and contains many complex spatial functions and operators, Oracle Spatial contains many functions that you can use to obtain the same result, you can choose the appropriate for your scope. PostgreSQL/PostGIS don't use this way to store geom data, and contain many spatial functions too. Of course that sintax of two DB for the functions is different, but the result if you apply in your data will be the same. It's always a hard decision, the correct DB needs to considerate many other factors, here we use the two DB and have good return of both. PostgreSQL/PostGIS is a good database, im my opinion is the best opensource database. Oracle is a good database too, I belive that is the best database at the momment.

This would help making MapServer a much better cartographic product, event better than ArcMap. It is harrassing to define so many CLASSes right now, mostly when we want to assign SIZE and COLOR to a symbol. A COLORRAMP would do the job perfectly. Is this going to be available soon? We also need to fix bug #1398 to allow SIZEITEM to control the size of point data type. It would be great to allow the construction of SIZEBREAK similar to what you described for COLORRAMP. To define COLORRAMP we would have: COLORRANGE 0 0 0 255 255 0 255 0 0 #black to yellow to red UNDERCOLOR 0 255 0 #green OVERCOLOR 0 0 255 #blue DATARANGE 0.0 100.0 #with this range, -10..0 would be mapped to green, 0.0001 to black, 50.0 to yellow, 100.0 to red and 100.0001... to blue RANGEITEM "foobar" Or COLORBREAK 0 0 0 255 255 0 255 0 0 #black to yellow to red UNDERCOLOR 0 255 0 #green OVERCOLOR 0 0 255 #blue DATABREAK 0.0 30.0 90.0 100.0 #instead of DATARANGE. The number of break-1 must match the number of COLORBREAK. x<=0.0 = green, x<=30.0 = black, x<=90.0 = yellow, x<=100.0 = red and x>100.0 = blue RANGEITEM "foobar" In this last example we could use COLORRANGE instead of COLORBREAK. This would imply that the values between 0.0 and 30.0 would be mapped to a color between black and yellow. This makes clear the difference betweem using a RANGE and a BREAK. A range implies interpolation and a BREAK implies exact color. In this case the number of color must match the number of breaks. Example: COLORRANGE 0 0 0 255 255 0 255 0 0 0 255 255 #black to yellow to red to cyan UNDERCOLOR 0 255 0 #green OVERCOLOR 0 0 255 #blue DATABREAK 0.0 30.0 90.0 100.0 #The number of break must match the number of color in COLORRANGE. x<=0.0 = green, x<=30.0 = interpolation between black and yellow, x<=90.0 = interpolation between yellow and blue, x<=100.0 = interpolation between red and cyan, x>100.0 = blue RANGEITEM "foobar" ________________________________________________ Similarly for SIZE we would have something like: SIZERANGE 1 100 UNDERSIZE 1 #omitting this parameter would default undersized value to the first value of SIZERANGE OVERSIZE 100 #idem to the last value DATARANGE 0.0 1456.0 #this would keep the determination of symbology in the map file instead of having to compute a value for SIZEITEM in Postgres for example. (which is the data side. "Keep data and their representation separated") SIZEITEM "foobar" Or with breaks: SIZEBREAK 1 10 100 UNDERSIZE 0 OVERSIZE 100 DATABREAK 0.0 300.0 900.0 1456.0 #instead of DATARANGE. The number of break-1 must match the number of SIZEBREAKs. x<=0.0 = 0, x<=30.0 = 1, x<=90.0 = 10, x<=100.0 = 100 and x>100.0 = 100 SIZEITEM "foobar" Or SIZERANGE 1 10 20 100 UNDERSIZE 0 OVERSIZE 100 DATABREAK 0.0 300.0 900.0 1456.0 #instead of DATARANGE. The number of break must match the number of SIZEBREAKs. Value 150.0 is mapped to 4.5, value 900 to 20, etc... SIZEITEM "foobar" It is important to make the distinction between RANGEs and BREAKs.

We did get mapServer to work in Core 4 with SELinux. In the end we had to download the sources for the policies and make a special policy for the mapServer environment. -> Download SELinux policy sources -> in path /etc/selinux/targeted/src/policy/domains/misc create a file called local.te that looks like the following: allow httpd_sys_script_t lib_t:file execmod; allow httpd_sys_script_t var_t:dir getattr; allow httpd_sys_script_t httpd_exec_t:lnk_file read; allow httpd_sys_script_t default_t:dir { getattr read search }; allow httpd_sys_script_t httpd_var_lib_t:dir search; -> compile this policy (see the SELinux docs) - I can't remember the exact command - the sysadmin where I work figured this out and showed me briefly, but it didn't stick -> set php_mapscript.so to: system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t -> just in case set the my_sql.so files to: system_u:object_r:texrel_shlib_t -> set all php scripts and map data files to: system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t -> NOTE: all of my html is also: system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t -> in /usr/local/lib all .so files are (not the links with .so in the name): system_u:object_r:shlib_t and all other files are: system_u:object_r:lib_t (this is for gdal, proj, gd, xerces, etc.) From what I recall this is all . . . I am sure there are other ways to do this as well, this is just the solution that we found in a short amount of time without futzing over it too much. As a security measure I also moved all the php scripts to a private directory that is outside of the doc root for the web server. All of the scripts are then 'included' through a small parsing script in the doc root. hope this helps tim Peru At 09:20 PM 8/18/2005, Eduin Carrillo wrote: >I just update my OS to Fedora4.

I assume you're on a windows box. Therefore the easiest way to take care of this is by placing all the DLLs (except for map_script) into \system32 where is the system windows directory (c:\winnt, c:\windows, etc.). With that said, you're entering a world of pain by using C# map_script in ASP.NET. Much of the map_script DLL is thread unsafe, that combined with ASP.NET's supremely weird threading model (e.g. virtual threads), you're going to encounter a plethora of problems. This is why you almost never see MapServer + ASP.NET discussion threads. To get more info, search the archives.

Unfortunately, I'm kind of stuck with ASP.NET, as that's what the rest of the site relies upon. I'm trying to improve the present setup which involves sending a request to a C++ CGI program which writes a map file to the hard disk and forwards the request to mapserv.exe. If you'd ask me, that's a bit of a kluge, and without Mapscript, all I could do to improve on that would be to take out the C++ program and have the map file generated from within the ASP.NET program itself. Can you think of a better way to accomplish the same task? Mike Abe Gillespie wrote: >Placing the depended-on DLLs into the bin dir will do nothing. I >assume you're on a windows box.

Is there any effort on the part of this community to write a pure Javascript library that mirrors the functionality present in the Google API? I am aware of the ka-Map project but have not investigated it to the level to know whether or not a simple

element is enough to encapsulate the mapping interface. Any hints or references to ongoing projects to this end would be appreciated! A simple browser-generic Javascript API that leverages the capabilities of MapServer (rather than Google) could go a great distance in winning even wider support for the MapServer project.

I have created a map file combining a raster image (Swiss Grid) and a MapInfo *.tab file (WGS84) The output projection is set inside the MAP object as follows: PROJECTION "proj=somerc" "ellps=bessel" "lat_0=46.95240555555556" "lon_0=7.439583333333333" "x_0=600000" "y_0=200000" END The input projection of the tab file (LAYER object): PROJECTION #"proj=longlat" #"ellps=WGS84" END As you may see looking at the result (attached image) there is a slight mismatch. I've tried already to use epsg code ("init=epsg:21781") to specify the projection, but then I get the following error message using shp2img: "msProcessProjection(): Projection library error. lat_0 = 0 or 90 or alpha = 90" Using "init=world:ch1903" works fine exept from producing still a mismatch. Using cs2cs with epsg code produces the same error message. Transforming single points using cs2cs seems to result in mismatches as well. My mapserver installation includes gdaldata, gdalplugins and proj. All relevant paths and variables are set. Any ideas, suggestions, solutions?

I have not looked at Chameleon, except to say that I installed it once and had issues with browser compatibility - it had the look and feel of a "simple Javascript" issue. So no. I'm looking for a little education as to what is available out there to quickly and easily meet the needs of those persons or institutions who would like to migrate from a "Google" solution to an internal one, with little to no software rewrites. One thing the Google API does reall well, is simplify map delivery. The backend server stuff - people don't care. But a mediocre web designer should be able to use the "MapServer Javascript API" to build a mapping site in a few minutes. Some would argue that Google does not subscribe to OGC standards, and it's not flexible enough, but given their ( - what seems to me - ) overnight success, Google is setting the standard in many ways. I have considered such an effort on my own, and the ka-Map interface is really very nice (very "Googleesque") but I don't want to re-invent the wheel....

By default Mapserver based on the Proj4 engine does not perform a datum shift. This results in a difference between projections after re-projection up to some 10's meters. I don't know if with the addition of the -towgs84 parameter Mapserver can perform now a correct datum shift. Also I don't know where one could get the 3 or 7 shift parameters for -towgs84.

As I no longer administer Windows systems, I really can't speak to MS4W security save in sweeping terms. Using it with Apache should be pretty safe, if, as noted above, your adiminstrator has taken care to close known problem holes... stuff common to Apache installs. All of our security exercises have strongly suggested that a knowledgable intruder can readily take over most Windows systems. Please note: This isn't a Windows slam, but that's what we're seeing on our campus with our network security exercises. One of the primary vectors we've seen exploited (ignoring mail trojans, etc) were IIS exploits. We've seen very few Apache exploits on well-patched/well-protected WinXP systems. So I echo the sentiment above: Patch it all, close as many holes as possible, make sure there are security logging mechanisms to allow you to detect an intrusion, and you've probably done a good job. At least in the source-version, implemented on Linux and Solaris, I've not seen any vulnerabilities reach out and scream at me.

In my case I have a map of the country and a large number of maps (~400) of the cities and villages. It would be desirable if the proper map could be drawn over the map of the country if the map is zoomed to the location of the city or village. This should be extended to more levels in hierarchy, eg. using a map for the whole continent and ensuring to draw the map of the country over the map of the continent after zooming to the appropriate area. I think it would give a solution if a map could be drawn as a raster layer in other map, and a tileindex file could contain the .map files for the given locations.

It seems that you are using an object instance without calling "new" previously. However Mapserver errors will result in an exception passed back through the SWIG interface. You should try to insantiate mapObj in a Windows test application. The improper security context of aspnet_wp may also be a problem.

Just to clarify, MamboServer ( www.mamboserver.com ) is a free CMS software written in PHP and have a lot of great features. Now, we want to integrate MapServer inside Mambo as a mambo component. I was thinking to use Chameleon as preffered mapping framework, but is my suggestion right? Can I do it? Or chameleon can just work alone? I mean, can I use Chameleon widgets to load MapFiles, draw maps but inside another PHP application?

I'm certain it can be done, but would like to know how others have solved it in the past. I need to generate several tables with "nearest X items" to a location. For example, "Nearest 5 Schools" to a location. I then want to generate a map showing the area that includes the X items and show the items on the map using the id's from the table. Here's an example: Table: Map ID |School Name |Students | Teachers -------------------------------------------- (A) |Main St. Elem. |100 | 10 (B) |Pinewood Elem. |2500 | 20 (C) |Forrest Lakes |800 | 20 Map: ------------------ | (A) | | (B) | | (C) | ------------------ So, what approaches are people using for this when using PostGIS and Mapserver? I will probably use PHP/Mapscript as that's what I'm most familiar with. I have two approaches that I think are doable... 1) I use PHP/Mapscript to make the base map 2) I connect to PostGIS and grab the data including the points/shapes I'm interested in (OGC WKT format?) 3) I use PHP/Mapscript to create a layer and add the points to the base map OR 1) I connect to PostGIS and create a temporary sequence (one that is local to the connection) 2) I select the data with shapes and attributes + the sequence into a temporary table (one that is local to the connection) 3) I have PHP/Mapscript draw the map using that temporary table 4) I use the temporary table to generate the HTML I'm pretty sure everyone will tell me to use approach #1, but of course I've started #2 :) I think I'm having problems because PHP/Mapscript opens its own connection to Postgresql, so it won't see my temporary table. Does anyone have any advice?

I assume you are running this as a script and not interactively in the Python shell. Further to Sean's note, how did you install MapScript?

It can create important distortion and makes it impossible to do something as simple as put a meaningful scalebar on the map. The UTM and DLTM projections are both Transverse Mercator projections, with similar properties. In your case, you would have data in UTM Zone 39, with a central meridian of 57 degrees East. The DLTM is exactly the same projection, with the central meridian at 55 degrees 20 minutes East. This is a very small difference, and most non-technical users will never notice the difference. The choice of projection depends on the area you need to cover. If you are only going to be mapping Dubai, or only the UAE, then I'd recommend you choose the DLTM projection. That would be the standard projection in use for official Dubai or UAE data sets, and might make it easier to integrate future data from those sources. If, however, you intend to cover a larger area, the UTM would be a better choice. The DLTM projection would not be used outside of the UAE, and if you're covering several independent countries there's no particular reason to choose one "national" projection over another. A "regional" projection such as UTM would probably be a better choice. There is really very little practical difference between these two projections; it's just a matter of where your application will be used. - Ed Ed McNierney President and Chief Mapmaker TopoZone.com / Maps a la carte, Inc. 73 Princeton Street, Suite 305 North Chelmsford, MA 01863 ed@topozone.com (978) 251-4242 -----Original Message----- From: UMN MapServer Users List [mailto:MAPSERVER-USERS@LISTS.UMN.EDU] On Behalf Of vdharan Sent: Monday, August 22, 2005 8:07 AM To: MAPSERVER-USERS@LISTS.UMN.EDU Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Projection Need Help Hi Iam using MapServer (php mapscript)for Online vehicle tracking system.Iam also using rosa applet to show online movement of multiple vehicles on the map.

I haven't work too much with WMS yet, but as far as I know if I have 400 maps (WMS layers), mapserver will start downloading all of the maps as a raster image regardless of that only some of the maps will be drawn at the same time (using proper MAXSCALE settings). Another performance issue is that the high number of maps will appear in the filesystem as temporary image file. With tileindex the filtering of the maps falling out of the display area takes place earlier than drawing of those maps. I think it would be considerable to support drawing raster layers given a .map file as the data source, so tileindex support would come into account automatically. Worthy of note that with the current Mapserver release (4.6.0) there is a minor bug I've run into that the 2.nd WMS layer is created with ambiguous temporary file name, see Bug #1312 Tamas Szekeres On Mon, 22 Aug 2005 10:21:43 -0500, Steven Monai wrote: >Tamas: > >MapServer has both WMS server and client capabilities.

But on that PC failed: the strange thing is that it worked on QueryByRectangle (or QueryByShape), but failed on DrawMap: changing version from 4.4 to 4.6 the problem moved from one group of functions to another group.

Actually this is not correct. You can just put all of them in the bin directory. I did this when I was playing with swig in v. 4.4.something. This worked, but I had the threading issues as well, so often the app crashed. I tried playing with the 4.6.0 version as well (this time in a win app) and at one point I seem to recall that I actually got the same error as you describe.

I use an xml template file like this: Parse, put template keyword value in protected variables, and then use them in the Page (all code is in code-behind .cs files).

Lars, Are you accessing your MS/SQL non-geographical table through OGR as well? Are you using an OGR SQL JOIN or a MapServer JOIN? OGR SQL joins do not permit WHERE queries on joined fields. The WHERE clause is currently evaluated on the primary table before the join is done. I *suspect* that is the problem you are running into though you haven't really provided enough details to make it clear. If your polygon data is in MS/SQL too then I suspect the best way to organize things is executing a custom SQL query doing the join and WHERE all within MS/SQL.

Actually, there is an equivalent to ld.so.conf -- but it's not something that you really want to use if you can avoid it. It's not really supported or well documented, as far as I can tell. The best way to handle this is to either set LD_OPTIONS or LD_RUN_PATH. An example setting that I use (as a blastwave.org maintainer) is this: LD_OPTIONS='-R/opt/csw/lib -L/opt/csw/lib -R/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib' export LD_OPTIONS This example assumes that you're using the Sun compilers -- I have not tested it with GCC, but I think it should work. If it fails to compile, you may need to change it (depending on the way that it's linking) to look more like this: LD_OPTIONS='-Wl,--rpath -Wl,/opt/csw/lib -L/opt/csw/lib' To check the generated binary and see if it can find the libraries, you can run 'ldd -s mapserv' and look over the output. It will show the library search path embedded in the binary and will tell you which libraries it's linking against -- handy for things like libz.so that exist in both /usr/lib and /opt/csw/lib (hint: you probably want the /opt/csw version). Email me if you're trying to use optimized sparcv8plusb or sparcv9 binaries or libraries. It gets more complicated then. One last thing -- if you're trying to link any C++ code against libraries (that are written in C++, like geos) in /opt/csw, you will need to use the Sun compilers.

If I query the table by adding quotation marks everything works fine:

Remark: the dots are part of the tablename!

I tried to do analog changes to the mapfile by changing the following line:

Well - this doesn?t work and I can?t solve the problem.

Dear list

I use Mapserver 4.0 as a CGI. I?m able to create a map, zoomed to a selected
shape using itemquerymap. That is exactly what I want and it is working fine.

The URL looks like:

For my Javascript-Application to work, I need the extents (minx, maxx, etc.) of
that map too. How can I get these parameters? A similar question has been asked
before, but I couldn?t find an answer. Any ideas?

Subject: phpmapscript attributes from ShapefileObj
Message-ID:

Dylan:

You can obtain a shape's attributes directly from the dbf file with
PHP's 'dBase' extension. The shapes in a shp file correspond one-to-one
with the records in the dbf file, so once you know the index of the shape
you want, the index to its attribute record in the dbf file is easily
derived. The shapefile record array is zero-based, while the dBase record
array is 1-based (in PHP, anyway), so just add one to the shape index to
get the dBase index.

Here's a quick'n'dirty example (no guarantee it'll work without
modification, since I just banged it out here without any testing):

/* load extensions as/if necessary */
dl("php_mapscript.dll");
dl("php_dbase.dll");

/* Configuration variables */
$shpfile_name = "/path/to/myfile"; // shapefile pathname, without .shp
$shpfile_mode = -1; // -1 == read-only, -2 == update
$dbase_mode = 0; // 0 == read-only, 1 == read/write

/* Open the .shp file */
$shape_file = ms_newShapefileObj($shpfile_name, $shpfile_mode);

/* Open the .dbf file */
$dbase_file = dbase_open($shpfile_name . ".dbf", $dbase_mode);

/* Code here to determine the index of the shape you want */
$shape_index = $shape_file->numshapes - 1; // this is the last shape

/* Obtain the shape's corresponding dBase record index
$dbase_index = $shape_index + 1; // adjust for the dBase 1-based index

/* Obtain the shape's attributes as an associative array */
$attrs_array = dbase_get_record_with_names($dbase_file, $dbase_index);

/* Do stuff with the attributes */
echo "ID=" . $attrs_array['ID'] . "\n"; // assume an 'ID' field exists

/* Clean up */
dbase_close($dbase_file); $dbase_file = NULL;
$shape_file->free(); $shape_file = NULL;

Hope this helps,

Roman,
First: quoting is a problem in mapfiles. There is a bug on it,
and it is inconsistent. However, you probably cannot wait for a solution.

How about this (from PSQL):

CREATE VIEW mapserv_view AS SELECT oid, * from
"test22_gr.planrahmen.koordinatenlinie";

Then you'll need to use the other form of the DATA statement since you
won't have the SRID in geometry_columns table anymore:

DATA "wkb_geometry from (select wkb_geometry from mapserv_view) as innerQ
using SRID=12345"

Where 12345 is is the SRID of your geometry.

That should get you around this.

Hope this helps
Bill

I found a discussion of a year or so ago on variable substitution
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wilma_hiliter/mapserver-users/0401/msg00102.html?line=143#hilite

Per Henrik solved his own problem in the lexer

I was wondering. It's not that there are explicit excludes for certain
substitutes; is there a policy on it?

how can a 'find and replace' procedure on %names% be so wicked. I know
it's not all that simple.Well if you do that just before the mapfile
goes into the lexer?

Now it's like lines of mapfile where it's likely to work and other lines
probably not?

Is this behaviour to be considered a bug?

so there is a policy
(mapserv.c)

if(map->layers[j].data && (strstr(map->layers[j].data, tmpstr) !=
NULL)) map->layers[j].data = gsub(map->layers[j].data, tmpstr,
msObj->request->ParamValues[i]);

if(map->layers[j].filter.string &&
(strstr(map->layers[j].filter.string, tmpstr) != NULL))
map->layers[j].filter.string = gsub(map->layers[j].filter.string,
tmpstr, msObj->request->ParamValues[i]);

since wfs_filter is a filter, whereof the parts are the
variable substitute candidates, i would eloborate this for the wfs filter

the only possibility now is

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv/bin/mapserv.exe?map=mapserv/bin/wfs_park.map&service=wms&request=getmap&version=1.1.1&layers=wfs_park&styles=&srs=EPSG:42304&bbox=-2600000,-700000,3500000,3840000&width=610&height=450&format=png&transparent=true&exceptions=text/xml&bgcolor=0xffffff&PARK_=10&wfsfilter=PARK_10
(still only 413 characters)

The instruction at "0x77f88216" referenced memory at "0x00000010". The
memory could not be "written".

This error is also returned if I attempt to remove the whole LAYER
definition.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong and why the application
error is being returned.
Thanks in advance.

Subject: php_mapscript - showing polygon and point/annotation layers
Message-ID:

I have mostly completed a cgi mapserver application and am now trying
to convert parts of it over to php_mapscript. I found it fairly
simple to draw a map from a mapfile using php, but now am starting to
learn a few more features and ran across the following stumbling
block:

If I use map->draw() I get an image created with all of the features
in the mapfile (all 68 layers, whee!). This is expected behaviour.
Because I want ot be able to select individual layers depending on
users preferences, I have been experimenting with map->prepareimage()
and then a series of layer->draw($image) - one of these for each
layer. I then do a map->drawLabelCache() to ensure labels are drawn
on the map and finally save the map to temp and echo out the html to
display it. The problem is that while the labels are displaying jsut
fine, any polygon or point/annotation data does not get displayed.
What am I missing here (by the way, I get the impression I haven't
done a great job of formatting the map file - please feel free to
point out any errors and make suggestions).

Here's the php code:

$mymap=ms_newmapobj('php.map');
$image=$mymap->prepareImage();

$currentlayer=$mymap->getLayerByName("landpl");
$a=$currentlayer->draw($image);
$currentlayer=$mymap->getLayerByName("boundary");
$a=$currentlayer->draw($image);
$currentlayer=$mymap->getLayerByName("lakespl");
$a=$currentlayer->draw($image);
$currentlayer=$mymap->getLayerByName("coastln");
$a=$currentlayer->draw($image);

$currentlayer=$mymap->getlayerbyname("tusnotavailable");
$a=$currentlayer->draw($image);
;
$a=$mymap->drawLabelCache($image);
$imageurl=$image->saveWebImage();
echo "";

The landpl, boundary, lakespl and coastln all work fine, but
tusnotavailable and a number of other layers similar to it don't.
Here's the tusnotavailable layer (I'll put the other 3 working layers
at the end).

LAYER
NAME tusnotavailable
DATA "tus points"
STATUS ON
MAXSCALE 5000000000
TYPE ANNOTATION
LABELITEM "USE1"
CLASSITEM "USE1"
LABELMAXSCALE 500000000

COLOR 255 0 0
LABEL
COLOR 0 0 0
TYPE TRUETYPE
FONT arial
SIZE 12
POSITION CC
PARTIALS FALSE

END
END
END

Here are the layers that are being displayed correctly:

Hi Travis, thank you for your advice to make a map file for several classes.

I tried to make some for my file of inhabitant-density with two classes >200
and <200. (Mapfile in the Attachement)

But I get the error message 'msDrawMap(): Failed to draw layer named
'Bev_Density' '.

Is it right, that you don't have the line 'CLASSITEM "EWKM2"' in you map
file?

If you are trying to display a layer with several classes you can try
something like this:

LAYER

Hi list,

I have a database for a layer conisting of 5 files:
test_bevdichte3.dbf
test_bevdichte3.sbn
test_bevdichte3.sbx
test_bevdichte3.shp
test_bevdichte3.shx

In my map file I can give the path to the dbf file to clasify the data.

CLASSITEM "EWKM2"

but still oll the polygones have the same color.

Somehow I want to configurate how many classes are build and with stile
every class has.

Somebody can give my a hint?

best regards - Leopold

Hi Mike,

If you want to draw some specific layers you can try this ::

1) Switch off all Layers
function setAllLayerOff($MapObject)
{
$layers = $MapObject->getAllLayerNames();
for($a=0;$agetlayerbyname($layers[$a]);
$tmp->set("status",0);
}
}

2) Switch on the layers you want to see in your map

....
$layer_on = $MapObject->getlayerbyname($layername);
$layer_on->set("status",1);

......

3) Draw the map and save it

$objImage=$objMap->draw();
$image_url=$objImage->saveWebImage();

Thanks for your prompt reply. I'd tried something similar:

/* for($a=0;$agetLayerByName($layers[$a]);
$currentlayer->status=MS_OFF;
echo $currentlayer->status."
";
echo
}
*/

but for some reason I still got all the layers displayed. I'll give it
another run and double check tho!

Hi list,

I have a satellite-picture conisting of 4 files:
wienumgebung.aux
wienumgebung.rrd
wienumgebung.tfw
wienumgebung.tif

1. How can I make it shown? I tried to put it in a map file like this
(attachement) but for example I don't know what to put in 'TYPE ????'

2. The whole database is a file about 1,7 GB. My testfile wienumgebung.tif
has only about 60 MB. - I think the Gis programm makes the files aux and rrd
to split the big file in a tree of files with different solutions for
different zoom faktors. How can I intergrate them to let my whole satellite
picture be shown in each zoom/solution?

best regards - Leopold

Hi Aniruddha,

there is already a guide in the mapserver wiki
(http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OracleSpatial) but some more
details will help others.

I don't know on which system you are but I can give you some hints for the
linux installation.

if you haven't already installed the oracle client you should do this first.
You can have look at:
http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.shtml

After this install there should be a folder with OraHome or however you named
it. This folder must be given to the configure script of mapserver
(e.g. ./configure --with-oraclespatial=/opt/oracle/OraHome1/). After running
this you should check the output. If it is OK you can "make" the mapserver.

If all is done you can test the binary "./mapserv -v". Then you only have to
copy the mapserv to the cgi-bin folder of apache and set the paths if not
done for the instalation e.g. in the /etc/bash.bashrc:

export ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/OraHome1
export ORACLE_SID=testdb
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/lib

You have to set up a TNS in
e.g. /opt/oracle/OraHome1/network/admin/tnsnames.ora

To see if the TNS and the client works you can make a test with sqlplus e.g.
sqlplus usr/pwd@testdb

Then you can set up a test .map file with an oracle layer e.g.:

LAYER
NAME "ORA_TestLayer"
TYPE LINE
CONNECTIONTYPE oraclespatial
CONNECTION "usr/pwd@testdb"
DATA GEOM FROM A_TABLE USING SRID 82027"
STATUS DEFAULT
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:31467"
END
CLASS
COLOR 80 130 220
END
END

If this fails then you can try set the environment to the httpd.conf file and
restart your apache e.g.:

SetEnv ORACLE_BASE "/opt/oracle"
SetEnv ORACLE_HOME "/opt/oracle/OraHome1"
SetEnv ORACLE_SID "testdb"

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Norbert

I can partially answer your question.

Use TYPE RASTER and DATA "wienumgebung.tif". Make you sure you include the right path to your tif file.

I don't know if Mapserver (GDAL) can read the rrd files which are Erdas files if I am not mistaken for pyramids, but if you are worried about performance you can always make internal overviews in your tiff file using gdaladdo.

gdaladdo -r average abc.tif 2 4 8 16

I would suggest looking at the Raster HOWTO:

Hi list,

I have a satellite-picture conisting of 4 files:
wienumgebung.aux
wienumgebung.rrd
wienumgebung.tfw
wienumgebung.tif

1. How can I make it shown? I tried to put it in a map file like this
(attachement) but for example I don't know what to put in 'TYPE ????'

2. The whole database is a file about 1,7 GB. My testfile wienumgebung.tif
has only about 60 MB. - I think the Gis programm makes the files aux and rrd
to split the big file in a tree of files with different solutions for
different zoom faktors. How can I intergrate them to let my whole satellite
picture be shown in each zoom/solution?

best regards - Leopold

Leopold,

you don't need the classitem because you give it within the EXPRESSION. Are
the values in your dbf numbers or strings? You should look in the dbf for the
exact name of the field.

If you want to serve WMS you have to put in the projection in the layer
definition.

Hi Frank,

Thanks for your response. The reason I didn't provide more detail was that I didn't know which way I was heading, and even how to
proceed :-)

I got a little further by myself before calling it a day yesterday. I did get some sort of OGR JOIN to work, but have a couple of
remaning problems :

- it only works on tables, not on views, so then it's a little difficult to use MS/SQL to filter the content

- besides, OGR always perform a LEFT JOIN (apparently adding random values if none are found), so it doesn't filter anything anyway

- OGR definitely doesn't like non-A-Z characters in the table and column name, I get an SQL parse error if such are used

I've tried to filter my layer content with both a LAYER/FILTER or a CLASS/EXPRESSION, but how to I test for the value NULL ?

Lars,

Are you accessing your MS/SQL non-geographical table through
OGR as well? Are you using an OGR SQL JOIN or a MapServer
JOIN?

OGR SQL joins do not permit WHERE queries on joined fields.
The WHERE clause is currently evaluated on the primary table
before the join is done. I *suspect* that is the problem you are
running into though you haven't really provided enough details
to make it clear.

If your polygon data is in MS/SQL too then I suspect the best
way to organize things is executing a custom SQL query doing
the join and WHERE all within MS/SQL.

Best regards,

Subject: WMS and layer STATUS DEFAULT
Message-ID:

Hi everybody,

I have a question regarding MapServer WMS Server and the STATUS DEFAULT
setting for a layer in the map file. I would need to place a logo always on
top of the requested image (using a raster layer or a point layer with
pixmap symbol).

One can define a layer as 'default' and it is always drawn. But if it is not
explicitely requested via the GET URL it will be drawn *before* the
requested layers and will therefore be hidden by the latter, even if the
'logo layer' is the last one in the map file and should be on top of all
others.

The strange thing is that if I define a layer as type 'annotation' and
status 'default', it will always correctly be drawn in the order of the map
file, but not if the logo layer is of type 'raster' or 'point' with pixmap
symbol. Any ideas why this happens? Is this behaviour intended?

The tested Mapserver version is 4.6 and 4.7.

Thanks for any help

Armin

Hi,

buffer operations are possible even without using GEOS, and don't require PostGIS. Look at queryByShape and then set a TOLERANCE on your layer and TOLERANCEUNITS to meters.

With Mapscript you should be able I think to remove stuff from your selection.

PostGIS could come in handy though, and could give you a better performance I think.

With respect to GEOS, look here:

Bart,

The only non-RDBMS driver in OGR that supports indexed attribute
queries is Shapefiles, and there only exact lookups are indexable.
If you don't want the hassle of setting up a complex RDBMS like
PostGIS you might consider a lightweight equivelent like SQLite but
I do think Postgresql/PostGIS would be the ideal option.

PS. I do have a vague intention of implementing indexed attribute
query support for mapinfo tab files at some point, and the underlying
MITAB does support the index files so it shouldn't be too hard. But
no timeline on such work.

Best regards,

Subject: "best" data format for attribute searches
Message-ID:

Although I am not Frank I'll take the opportunity to answer :-)

OGR can use Mapinfo attribute index files on shapefiles, it can't use dbf indexes.

See here:

http://ogr.maptools.org/drv_shapefile.html

Currently the OGR Shapefile driver only supports attribute indexes for looking up specific values in a unique key column. To create a spatial index for a column issue an SQL command of the form "CREATE INDEX ON tablename USING fieldname". To drop the attribute indexes issue a command of the form "DROP INDEX ON tablename". The attribute index will accelerate WHERE clause searches of the form "fieldname = value". The attribute index is actually stored as a mapinfo format index and is not compatible with any other shapefile applications.

Bart

Bart,

The only non-RDBMS driver in OGR that supports indexed attribute
queries is Shapefiles, and there only exact lookups are indexable.
If you don't want the hassle of setting up a complex RDBMS like
PostGIS you might consider a lightweight equivelent like SQLite but
I do think Postgresql/PostGIS would be the ideal option.

PS. I do have a vague intention of implementing indexed attribute
query support for mapinfo tab files at some point, and the underlying
MITAB does support the index files so it shouldn't be too hard. But
no timeline on such work.

Best regards,

Thanks Bart,

But I think I must be being dim - I still haven't quite grasped it...

"OGR can use Mapinfo attribute index files on shapefiles"
Do you really mean this ? or should shapefiles really be read as MapInfo tab
files ?

I think I'm confused by the interchangeable way you are referring to
shapefile drivers reading MapInfo files etc ?

A) If I have a mapinfo tab file layer with mapinfo indexes (.ind) on the
attribute file (.DAT / .DBF) are you saying that mapserver can make use of
these ?

B) When you say create an index by: "CREATE INDEX ON tablename USING
fieldname" - is this a MapInfo command ?

c) My issue is similar to yours I think - I don't really care if I use
MapInfo tab files or shape files - but I have some large data files and am
concerned about the speed of attribute queries and would rather avoid going
to an RDBMS if I can.

I can live with attribute indexes only supporting exact matches - and under
some circumstances I could live with just unique indexes working, but in
others it would be good if exact matches on non unique indexes (i.e.
returning multiple records) could also be supported. Am I best off using
MapInfo indexed tab files ?

Sorry for all the questions - but I've read various posts about attribute
indexes not being supported for dbf files in Mapserver - but in none of them
did anyone suggest using OGR and Tab files as an alternative ?

Many Thanks
James

OGR can use Mapinfo attribute index files on shapefiles, it can't use dbf
indexes.

See here:

http://ogr.maptools.org/drv_shapefile.html

Currently the OGR Shapefile driver only supports attribute indexes for
looking up specific values in a unique key column. To create a spatial index
for a column issue an SQL command of the form "CREATE INDEX ON tablename
USING fieldname". To drop the attribute indexes issue a command of the form
"DROP INDEX ON tablename". The attribute index will accelerate WHERE clause
searches of the form "fieldname = value". The attribute index is actually
stored as a mapinfo format index and is not compatible with any other
shapefile applications.

Frank,

Would you mind elaborating on shape files supporting indexed attribute
queries in OGR ?

I was under the impression from all that I had read that Mapserver
didn't use dbf indexes for shape files - (I know it can use spatial
indexes) - or is the difference here that it does if you go via OGR - or
am I missing the point !

I would be very grateful if you could point me at an example /
documentation of how to use indexed attribute queries in mapserver
without an RDBMS.

What should you use to create the dbf indexes ?
Will indexes still work if accessed via an indexed layer created using
tile4ms.exe ?

It would be great if I can use indexed attribute queries as I'm starting
to hit performance issues with large data volumes and am trying for a
variety of reasons to delay the move to something like PostGIS

Many Thanks
James

Hi James,

A): No, for MapInfo TAB files the attribute index files are not used. This is not implemented.

B): this is an OGR command. Use something like:

ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" mynewshp.shp myshp.shp -sql "CREATE INDEX ON tablename USING fieldname"

C): so use CONNECTIONTYPE OGR and CONNECTION "path to your shapefile" in your MAP file.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted.

Hi Leopold,

I can partially answer your question.

Use TYPE RASTER and DATA "wienumgebung.tif". Make you sure you include the
right path to your tif file.

I don't know if Mapserver (GDAL) can read the rrd files which are Erdas
files if I am not mistaken for pyramids, but if you are worried about
performance you can always make internal overviews in your tiff file using
gdaladdo.

gdaladdo -r average abc.tif 2 4 8 16

I would suggest looking at the Raster HOWTO:

Message-ID:

Hi List,

A few weeks ago I enquired about how to get multiple legends from a single map, so that I can have a html legend on my main map and a standard legend on my print-friendly map. Someone kindly suggested that I use the wms getlegendgraphic request, and that works, but only up to a point, which is probably my limited understanding rather than a problem with the method!

As far as I can tell, since the getlegendgraphic request only refers to a single layer, so I need to call it separately for each layer, and it will show regardless of whether the layer is on or off, OR I have to write in some more complicated code adding in some conditional statements about what should be displayed. However, I notice in my temp file that a standard legend is being created anyway- so my question is, how do I reference that?

Thanks

Subject: OGR Problem
Message-ID:

Hi List,

I have been investigating the GDAL/OGR with the ODBC connection.

I have been using virtual data files (See the link below)
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?VirtualSpatialData

My understanding is as follows:

1. Non-spatial data

It is possible to plot x,y data from a SQL Server table quite easily as
follows:-

ODBC:mapserver/mapserver@MapServerTest
SELECT * FROM tblWhatever

2. WKT Spatial Data
If you have an OGC compliant WKT database with a GEOMETRY_COLUMNS table, it
is possible to plot points, Lines, polygons etc.
(It picks up the required columns automatically)

ODBC:mapserver/mapserver@MapServerTest
UK_Counties_FEA
wkbPolygon

3. WKB Spatial Data
However the database I am using holds data in the WKB (Well Known Binary)
format and I am not clear whether this is supported by the current OGR
library as the documentations says:

"it is currently a hardcoded assumption that the geometry is in WKT format."
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_odbc.html
-------------------------------
My questions are these:-

1. Have I understood this correctly?
2. Is there a workaround for OGR with a WKB database?
3. Are there any plans to implement this functionality by GDAL/ Mapserver
and if so when?
4. If no, then who might do this custom development for a fee?

Dave,

To clarify, the ODBC driver looks for a geometry_columns
table, and if it finds it, uses the f_geometry_column column
to identify which column in the target table is the geometry
column. As noted, it is assumed to be WKT format.

I would add that in the above configuration, you don't really
need the "virtual" layer at all. You could just directly address
the ODBC table.

yes

> 2. Is there a workaround for OGR with a WKB database?

not currently.

> 3. Are there any plans to implement this functionality by GDAL/ Mapserver and if so when?

there are no fixed plans to do so.

> 4. If no, then who might do this custom development for a fee?

Amoung others, I would be prepared to do the work.

There are a couple of approaches. One would be to build the
WKB support into the ODBC driver, and to have it auto-detect
WKB based on column type. Currently I have no BLOB handling
in the ODBC driver, so some additional work would need to be
implemented for binary columns as well as changes to translate
the WKB. I can prepare a quote if you wish.

The more general approach would be to have the VRT layer
support WKB. This would be easy, but would still mean that
the ODBC driver would need to be changed to support
binary columns.

Dejan,

I don't think the msautotest provides a very good example
of how to simulate use loading. It mostly uses shp2img,
avoiding some of the issues related to mapserv running
as a cgi, bandwidth issues, etc.

If you have your application working already, and you
just want to test it under load, I would suggest operating
it interactively, and capturing the set of requests from
the Apache logfile. You can then play back the request
series, perhaps with several parallel streams of requests
to simulate load.

I'm not sure what the best way is to determine bandwidth
requirements. A rough estimate could be collected from the
byte counts reported in the apache log file for a given
series of requests.

Best regards,

Hi,

I use JMeter when I want to test a server application, mainly because it is simple :-), and it gives you a nice pretty picture to show the boss :-) , this is summarised here http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/boss.html

I like it because it gives a repeatable test against a series of URL queries, and you can test concurrent users which is the test that breaks most servers if the hardware is incorrectly specified.

Subject: PHP/Mapscript as WMS server
Message-ID:

Hello,

in the mailinglist archives in 2003 I found a thread called
"OGC compliant WMS server delivering dynamic layers".

It was about a PHP/Mapscript script used as some kind of proxy WMS
server. Requests like GetCapabilities were directly forwarded to the
local mapserv cgi-bin using Header('Location: http://...?REQUEST=')
while the GetMap request was processed in the PHP script itself for
loading dynamic layers depending on the scale or sth.

Are there any current projects which are based on the idea of using
Mapscript to build up a more dynamic WMS server component?

Best regards,
Sebastian

PS: Will I have to use sth. like Deegree for having more dynamic at
the backend (f. e. for loading dynamic data, filters or expressions
depending on the scale)?

Confirming for posterity that I subsequently tried this again to no avail.
Still getting no symbol drawn on the map, just the label. I also tried with

I wonder if there's something to do with my symbol path that is a problem

The best way to deal with large rasters at multiple zoom levels is to
create overviews (aka pyramids) using the gdaladdo utility that comes
with gdal. These are essentially reduced resolution versions of the
original image stored in a single file. When mapserver accesses the
raster, it will use the overview "layers" depending on the scale of
the image, reducing the need to resample on the fly. This speeds
things up immensely if you have rasters that are being viewed at
widely variable scales.

check out http://gdal.maptools.org/gdal_utilities.html#gdaladdo for the details.

I think the big question is are you doing dynamic work with it.

If you're going to be doing analysis or other dynamic stuff ("Find all the
properties bordering this one who's price is < $400K"), you will probably
be better off with PostGIS over tiled shapefiles and OGR (FrankW would
know better on this).

If you're mainly going to be displaying the data, you're almost certainly
going to be faster with tiled shapefiles. Also, backup/restore is much
simpler!

I have found that I must use a hybrid approach. I have some things that
are just plain dynamic: I have to use spatial SQL on every display. For
these, I use PostGIS. I also have pure static data, which I leave in
shapefiles (tiled or not). When I find that I can, I will use PostGIS to
do analysis and manipulation to get a dataset that works well. Then,
I will export it to shapefiles using psql2shp and just update the map
file.

Hope this helps.

Bill

My experience is that PostGIS is slower for operations like that,
because of the way it has to traverse the index. I recommend using
Steve Woodbridge's shp2tile with the -q option -- it'll take you about
five minutes to get working -- and then create a tile index.

PostGIS is great if you need to do indexed spatial operations, but if
you're just showing vectors on a map based on their locations, I think
Shapefiles on disk are faster *if* there aren't too many shapes per
file.

Rob,

I love PostGIS for somethings, but from what you discribe I would start
with a tileindex. You can download shp2tile from http://imaptools.com/?tab=4

build it an run it like:

mkdir tiledata
./shp2tile -q 8000 polygon.shp tiledata
find tiledata -name "*.shp" -exec shptree {} \;
find tiledata -name "*.shp" > tiledata.in
tile4ms tiledata.in tiledata-idx
shptree tiledata-idx

and modify your mapfile to use the tileindex.

Lars,

It should be leaving the extra fields NULL if the join lookup fails.
If that is not the
case, I would appreciate your filing a bug report sufficient for me to
reproduce
the problem.

> - OGR definitely doesn't like non-A-Z characters in the table and column name, I get an SQL parse error if such are used

Generally speaking OGR does allow numbers in table names. It should also allow
stuff like underscores, but it may be too harsh in it's parsing logic.
Could you
be more specific about what does not work?

I just created a shapefile called p2.shp and the following worked:

ogrinfo -ro -sql 'select * from p2' p2.shp

> I've tried to filter my layer content with both a LAYER/FILTER or a CLASS/EXPRESSION, but how to I test for the value NULL ?

I don't think that MapServer has a concept of NULL values for items,
though I could be wrong. You may have to filter the items against the
empty string to simulate NULLness.

I've found that the QIX support isn't sufficient to speed up access to
really large shapefiles, especially if you're doing any kind of
attribute filtering. I'd love to know why this is.

Hello All-

I am attempting to serve a WMS layer that I would like to be queryable

appears as it should when brought into a map, but is not queryable, despite
what it says in the layer information popup window. Other layers brought
into the same map through other servers are queryable. I have searched the
documentation and lists, but haven't been able to find any answers. Do I
need to add something extra to the mapfile (layer portion is pasted below)?
Both the context and capabilities xml files show that the layer is queryable
(=1) and I have increased the tolerance ridiculously just to make sure a

Subject: php_mapscript - showing polygon and point/annotation layers
In-Reply-To: <1921191871@web.de>
Message-ID:

Robert and list:

I think I've got this worked out. My original cgi-mapserver application used
a hack to get both point and polygon data able to be filtered based on some
extra data in their respective dbf files - namely site usage (USE1). As a
result I had 3 layers with the same name as each other. While the cgi
handled this fine, it appears that php is less forgiving. I started a .map
file over again for my php application and have renamed the layers and
everything seems to be much happier now.

Next major task on my list - create an interface to allow the creation of
polygons to add to polygon shapefiles - whee!

Thanks again for your help.

Regards,
Mike

Ok I haven't done attribute filtering but I find that displaying is very

I've found that the QIX support isn't sufficient to speed up access to
really large shapefiles, especially if you're doing any kind of
attribute filtering. I'd love to know why this is.

Hello All-

I am attempting to serve a WMS layer that I would like to be
queryable (using the identify feature button/Query widget from
Chameleon). The layer appears as it should when brought into a map, but
is not queryable, despite what it says in the layer information popup
window. Other layers brought into the same map through other servers
are queryable. I have searched the documentation and lists, but haven't
been able to find any answers. Do I need to add something extra to the
mapfile (layer portion is pasted below)? Both the context and
capabilities xml files show that the layer is queryable (=1) and I have
increased the tolerance ridiculously just to make sure a click hits on
the point. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in
advance for your help.

Well, the QIX is a spatial index, not an attribute index. But someone
might want to check the source code and see if attribute filtering makes
use of the subset of spatial objects or just dumbly scans all the
attributes then rejects based on spatial criteria.

Message-ID:

Hi Frank,

My point about the left join was that a failed lookup didn't remove the
feature, it just added (random/null/arbitrary) values. I was looking for it
to filter. It's not a bug as I see it, just a clarification of it's purpose.
However, I do see some random values being added, that may be a bug.

The non A-Z character I was referring to was not digits but Danish
characters (??????). I.e. ascii values from the 128-255 range. They're valid
in MS/SQL, but apparently the OGR SQL parser doesn't support them.

You didn't comment on this item: does the OGR SQL Parser support views and
not just tables ? It seems to report "not found" whenever I try to enter a
view instead of a table.

About the bug reports, I just want to be sure whether it's a bug and not
(just) an absent/missing feature. If it's a bug, I'll be happy to file all
the reports you want ;-)

Best regards / Med venlig hilsen
Lars V. Nielsen

Lars,

It should be leaving the extra fields NULL if the join lookup fails.
If that is not the
case, I would appreciate your filing a bug report sufficient for me to
reproduce
the problem.

> - OGR definitely doesn't like non-A-Z characters in the table and column

Generally speaking OGR does allow numbers in table names. It should also
allow
stuff like underscores, but it may be too harsh in it's parsing logic.
Could you
be more specific about what does not work?

I just created a shapefile called p2.shp and the following worked:

ogrinfo -ro -sql 'select * from p2' p2.shp

> I've tried to filter my layer content with both a LAYER/FILTER or a
CLASS/EXPRESSION, but how to I test for the value NULL ?

I don't think that MapServer has a concept of NULL values for items,
though I could be wrong. You may have to filter the items against the
empty string to simulate NULLness.

you need to compile mapserv with VC6, SP3 or SP4 minimal (one of the two, I can't remember exactly). Otherwise you get crashes on GetFeatureInfo or GetFeature with maporaclespatial. VC7 also does the trick.

Hi folks,
The Oracle support for Mapserver need the Oracle Call Interfaces
(OCI) libraries. Mapserver access Oracle Spatial directly by OCI, don't
use ODBC.
Using this way is more quickly to receive the results and the
performance of the (maporaclespatial.c) is better.
I recomment to compile Mapserver with Oracle Spatial using the VC6
with SP4, here I compiled using SP6 and didn't see problems.
Thanks.

When you are doing a GetCapabilities, what is your URL?

Do you add &service=WFS&request=GetCapabilities&version=1.0.0
?

otherwise probably the default is the WMS capabilities and you miss "wms_title" METADATA for that. If you want to be shorter, use the more general ows_title and leave out wfs_title and wms_title.

Thanks to everyone for your help about the print option.
I'm using the example sent by Piero Cavalieri. It works fine but i have a
problem with the library pdflib, because when i print a map, a message
showing this "www.pdflib.com" is printed over the map crossing the page.

I found this explanation in www.pdflib.com:
"PDFlib, PDFlib+PDI, and PPS are distributed as one single binary package
which is fully functional, but displays a demo stamp across all generated
pages unless a valid license key is applied."

I'm not sure if i have to buy the license key or there are some free
options.

Please tell me what i have to do.?

Hi,

Is used freeware pdflib from http://www.fpdf.org/

I never make a complete print function. Only draw a map. I haven't got
time work it out.
But there is enough information on http://www.fpdf.org/

Now getCapabilities is ok. But when i make a

The WFS server output is

I'm so surprised beacause my getCapabilities return is correct.

There is also a very extended print functionality in Chameleon based on PHP/Mapscript.

Hi,

Is used freeware pdflib from http://www.fpdf.org/

I never make a complete print function. Only draw a map. I haven't got
time work it out.
But there is enough information on http://www.fpdf.org/

best regards

Onderwerp: Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] print option

Thanks to everyone for your help about the print option.
I'm using the example sent by Piero Cavalieri. It works fine but i have
a
problem with the library pdflib, because when i print a map, a message
showing this "www.pdflib.com" is printed over the map crossing the page.

I found this explanation in www.pdflib.com:
"PDFlib, PDFlib+PDI, and PPS are distributed as one single binary
package
which is fully functional, but displays a demo stamp across all
generated
pages unless a valid license key is applied."

I'm not sure if i have to buy the license key or there are some free
options.

Please tell me what i have to do.?

Hi Frank. I'll try to explain you what did i do.

1) I didn't work with the Apache provided by default in suse. I downloaded
the source of the Apache 2.0.52 version. I install apache with somethig
like this:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache
make
make install

2) Then i installed php 5.0.3 with:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs
--with-regex=system --with-mysql --with-pgsql
--with-gd=/usr/local/gd --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/jpeg
--with-zlib-dir=/home/carloseduardo/Servidor/php5/php-5.0.3/ext/zlib
--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/freetype

make
make install

You need to read the Readme files in the source of php to be sure that is
installed good.

3) Then i installed mapserver 4.4.1 with something like this:
./configure --with-wmsclient --with-gd --with-freetype --with-png
--with-proj --with-gdal --with-tiff --with-postgis
--with-php=/home/carloseduardo/Servidor/php5/php-5.0.3/
make
make install

Then i copied the mapserv file to /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/ and the
php_mapscript.so to the extensions directory established in the php.ini
file. In my case is /usr/local/php/extensions/

To be sure that php_mapscript is installed fine, you need to execute a php
file with this code:

One of the tables showed in the page have to be about Mapscript.

I hope this can help you. And excuse me for my poor english.

Carlos

Lars,

Ah right. This is by design, so no point in filing a bug. I realize it isn't
necessarily correct according to the SQL spec.

Um, well if you do see random values that sounds like a bug and is
worth a bug if you think you can provide a demonstration case I can
reproduce fairly easily.

Ah, that makes sense. Indeed now that I think about it my OGR SQL tokenizer
is far to restrictive. If you file a bug against OGR about this, I
will fix it.

The OGR SQL allows table-like access to anything already identified by the
underlying OGR driver as a layer. If "ogrinfo" doesn't see it as a layer, then
it won't be accessable from OGR SQL.

So the question might instead be does the OGR ODBC driver show treat
views as tables. I'm afraid I am not sure of the answer to this. I
think I tried
list to views as well, but I am pretty sure that you can operate on views if
you list the view name in the "table list" in the connection string.

PdfLib isn't free. You have to buy a license if you want to remove the
banner. There should be also a Lite version, which as some limitations
respect full version (no .NET bindings for example). This version is free
under certain circustances (and don't have the banner).
If you can't use pdflib, in php manual, when talking about pdf, there
are links to other free pdflib libraries (of course you will have to
rewrite code from scratch). I think you could try them too, and then decide
what's the best option for you.

Subject: Making a WMS layer queryable
In-Reply-To:
Message-ID:

Hi Bart-

I added DUMP TRUE to the map file. I do get some sort of result for that
layer:

*Bluff Profiles*

Feature:

Bluff_Profile_feature

but it isn't the result I'm looking for - it doesn't seem to be accessing
the attribute table at all. Do I need to add something else, perhaps to the
Layer Metadata? I guess I'm wondering how MapServer knows that
GetFeatureInfo is being requested.

Perhaps this is also a Chameleon issue? (I am also looking into WFS to see
if that might be a practical route.)

I really appreciate the help. Thanks!

Subject: Multiple Layer Queries
Message-ID:

Hi Everybody,

I'm working on a new mapserver app after a long hiatus. I'd like to query
two layers (Parcels and Zoning Districts)and have their attributes shown in
the QueryResults_template.html. I'm using NQUERY, but am still only getting
results from one layer in the results table.

I know this is not a new question, but I'm having a hard time deciphering
all the necessary steps from the tutorial, and haven't found the answers on
previous list posts. I don?t understand header/footer files. In case
that?s part of the answer, please share their significance in the process.
Any help would be most appreciated. I'll post my queryResults_template.html
below in case that'll help unlock the mystery.

Thanks!

~Becky

These are WMS Capabilities, not WFS capabilities.

Add &service=WMS to your GetCapabilities URL.

Try adding gml_include_items "all" to your LAYER's METADATA.

Ofcourse I meant:

Add &service=WFS to your GetCapabilities URL.

Subject: Blank image being created in MS 4.6.0
Message-ID:

Hello

I'm trying to upgrade our map server from version 4.1 to 4.6.0 and am
facing some hurdles. The map files work fine in version 4.1, but are all
generating blank white images for me in 4.6.0. From reading the mailing
lists and the documentation, I can't seem to find what's wrong with the
map files. Here's an example:

#epsg:32611
NAME AUG21234542.map
SIZE 400 400
EXTENT 0 0 576 432
WEB
TEMPLATE ../mapServerTemplateVis.html
IMAGEPATH ""
IMAGEURL ""
END
LAYER
TYPE RASTER
STATUS DEFAULT
DATA "C:\inetpub\ftproot\input_images\AUG162454635.jpg"
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:32611"
END
TRANSPARENCY 100
END
END

Does anyone know what changes I need to make to have the image appear on
my map?

Thanks

Subject: MapServer and MrSID
Message-ID:

Hi, all --

I am just getting going with MapServer and GIS in general. Please pardon
the naive question:

I have been offered the use of a very large aerial photograph that's
currently accessible by ESRI software. I'm told that the photo is provided
under MrSID compression.

Can MapServer take slices from a photo in this form?? If not, what do I
have to do to the photo to make it accessible.

(I have been reading up on MrSID, and I can see that it's a method for
amalgamating tiled photos ... so I can't really see how "unpacking" a MrSID
file would be a good thing for MapServer. So that leads me to believe that
either MapServer supports a MrSID file or it doesn't. True?? MrSID looks
patented, which leads me to think that maybe MapServer won't do it.)

Good advice needed ...

Thanks!

I'm not sure. I assumed that because the map worked before in the older

Mike,

You don't have a PROJECTION definition for your map (the target image to
be created by mapserver). And your EXTENT coordinates look like pixel
values instead of world coordinates (e.g. meters or degrees).

Try changing
EXTENT 0 0 576 432
to
EXTENT 300000 5000000 700000 6000000
or better yet, get the world extents of your input jpg file by using:
gdalinfo C:\inetpub\ftproot\input_images\AUG162454635.jpg

You might want to add

PROJECTION
"init=epsg:32611"
END

after the EXTENT entry as well.

Does your image really fall in a 576 meter by 432 meter spot in the origin corner of UTM Zone 11? You could run gdalinfo on image file to find out it's extent.

I haven't done a lot of image work, but is there a world file associated with this image?

Mike,

It appears that your image is not geo-referenced. Was there a jpeg world file in the same directory with this .jpg under your old setup?

Try commenting out all projection info just to see if you can get the image to appear, that may do the trick. Of course, if you want to use this photo with other data, you will have to get it georeferenced again.

In this case, no it does not. gdalinfo reveals no coordinate system -
this is the system our mapfile-generating script provides when no
coordinate system is available. (I didn't develop it, just maintaining
it, so I'm not sure why it chooses that one) The way our server is
supposed to work is that if the image has coordinate system info to it,
it will project and display it appropriately according to that
information. If there is no information, we still need to display the
image, so it generates the extent data based on the image size. This
particular image has no world file or any other georeferencing info
associated with it.

The image is displayed on its own, so I could take out the projection
information. However, this does not cause the image to appear.

Mike,

Well, this is getting interesting. In theory, your original map file
should work. Even though the coordinates you give are pixels, not world
coordinates, MapServer doesn't know that. I tried the following map file
with 4.6:

#epsg:32611
NAME AUG21234542.map
SIZE 400 400
EXTENT 0 0 576 432
WEB
TEMPLATE Template.html
IMAGEPATH ""
IMAGEURL ""
END

LAYER
TYPE RASTER
STATUS DEFAULT
DATA "test.jpg"
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:32611"
END
# TRANSPARENCY 100
END

END

This actually causes mapserv.exe to crash! And un-commenting the
TRANSPARENCY 100 stops the crashing. shp2img doesn't crash, but it spits
out a GIF stream to stdout even though I used "-o test.gif" for an output
file.

I'll have to step through this in the debugger....

Subject: Odd Layer Cutoff
Message-ID:

I had shapefiles of grids which I used shp2pgsql.exe to import into my
Postgres database. They worked and were displayed properly. Then I
noticed that the grid was off by 10000m (it is in UTM). The original
shapefile was created 10000m further north than it should have been, so
this was simply an error in the initial creation of the shapefile.

In order to move the grid into the proper position, I ran the following
query in postgres.

update geom_mapbooksheet set the_geom = translate(the_geom, 0, -10000, 0);

The grid shifted down 10000m as expected, but now the layer is not
displayed if it is within 10000m of the top of the viewable area.

Here is a poorly rendered ascii picture of the problem. ( = means image
border, - and | are gridlines.

=----------------------------------------=
= | | | | | | | | | | =
==========================================

Note that the grid up top in the 'after' pic exists, and if I pan upwards
it will be drawn. But the next section of grid that would be within 10000m
of the top of the images is now cut off. If I shift it up 10000m the exact
same behavior is repeated, except now the botton is cut off.

I have no ideas, and hope that someone here does.

Subject: Continuous grids using OGR and OpenDAP
Message-ID:

This one is probably for Frank W. -

Is there a way to display continuous grids in Mapserver via a GDAL/OGR
connection to an OpenDAP server?

I have gridded precipitation observations available through a OpenDAP server
http://gulfstream.meas.ncsu.edu:9090/dods/mpe/

I found a reference on the Mapserver Wiki to display the gridded values
as points, and I've made this work - no problem.

But I need to display as a continuous grid or raster, not as thousands
of discrete points. Searching the listserve archives, there doesn't seem
to be a success story available for guidance.

I'd be appreciative of any help from the community...

Hi,

I use mapserver on my web page. The map is generated as image by CGI
mapserver
and I want to show coordinates on mouse over this map. So I need pixel
coordinates
of image (it is part of a page - table). Do you know how to solve this
in Javacript?

I solved this for IE, but I dont know how to solve this for Mozilla...

my script:

function MYS() {
if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape') {
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEMOVE);
document.onmousemove = NNMouseMove(e);
}
if (document.all) {
MSMouseMove();
}
}

function NNMouseMove(e) {
document.mapserv.X.value = e.pageX;
document.mapserv.Y.value = e.pageY;
}

function MSMouseMove() {
document.mapserv.X.value = event.offsetX;
document.mapserv.Y.value = event.offsetY;
}

and in HTML there is
...

....

It works for IE - it shows pixel coords of image, but in Mozilla it
shows coords of page (I dont know how
can I get coords of upperleft corner of image realtive to page...)

Thanks for any reaction

Ryan,

Instead of accessing the grid via OGR, instead you can use a TYPE RASTER
layer, and use the corresponding GDAL access. I tried:

gdalinfo 'http://gulfstream.meas.ncsu.edu:9090/dods/mpe/200201.01h?apcpsfc[0][x][y]'

Unfortunately, this isn't working for me. But I'm not sure if this is due to
my recent upgrade to a more recent DODS version or if it is something
about the server.

I don't really have time to dig into this just now, but I can come back
to it you can't get things working.

PS. I would encourage you to use GDAL 1.3.0 if you aren't already.

PPS. DODS GDAL access info is at:

http://www.gdal.org/frmt_dods.html

Message-ID:

Does anyone know of a good way to make a donut symbol.

I need to be able to resize a symbol that is basically a donut. Where
the donut part is semi-opaque, and the center is open. It's basically a
min/max distance from a point overlay. I have the dynamic handing off
of the sizing handled already, but haven't figured out a good way to
make a filled donut symbol.

I did mange to make a stacked symbol, but I would really like to have
the center no be filled in, only the area between the MIN/MAX distance
from the point picked.

Thanks

Subject: Mouse position - coords
In-Reply-To: <430E3936.5060805@fsv.cvut.cz>
Message-ID:

If I understand correctly, this is a two-part question, how to get the
cursor coordinates and how to get the position of the image.

Getting the position of an element on the page is kind of tricky.

See:
http://www.quirksmode.org/js/findpos.html

offsetLeft and offsetTop will give you the position relative to the
element's parent container. This is implemented differently in different
browsers. So, you have to find the position of the parent container and
add that to the offsets. The above link explains and provides some
functions to find position.

For the mouse coordinates I use:
if (e.pageX) {
newx = e.pageX;
newy = e.pageY;
}
else {
newx = e.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft
newy = e.clientY + document.body.scrollTop
}

Mike,

I assume there has been some subtle breakdown in the handling
of ungeoreferenced images in the MapServer raster support. I'll
try this out myself and see what can be done.

Barry,

MapServer can display MrSID images, but only if the GDAL it is
using is built with MrSID support. The MrSID support depends on
use of the MrSID SDK from Lizardtech. This is free in the sense
of no-cost (but not open source) but can be a bit involved to build
in properly.

Mike,

I have confirmed that things changed due to a behavioral
change in GDAL and/or changes in the MapServer raster logic
for ungeoreferenced files. I have applied a patch in MapServer
CVS (head and the 4.6 branch) but was only an hour or so late
to get into MapServer 4.6.1. You can replace the msGetGDALGeoTransform
code in mapdrawgdal.c with the following to fix your own source tree.

Subject: Missing javascript in the source
Message-ID:

We are having a problem replicating the client functions that
were developed on another server. The application uses a
shpfile index to locate the .tiff files and renders the
files as png or jpeg in the 800x800 window and renders a smaller
scale version in an adjacent 400x400 window.

Below is the "source" obtained from the MAC/OS server
that operates correctly. Notice the java script
imbedded in the file. Well, on the linux server (on which we
just installed the mapserver, Version 4.6.0), the javascript
does not appear in the source. The 800x800 image map is blank
but 400x400 reference image appears.

The applications uses gdal_tindex to generate a shpfile
containing the location of the tiff files; however, only the initial
default tiff file is processed, and as stated above, only the 400x400
reference map appears.

Any ideas what may be causing the ill behavior by the client in
the linux environment? Is there an environment variable or path
which needs to be integrated into the apache server or the owner
of the apache server?

Thanks
V

Subject: Multiple Layer Queries
In-Reply-To:
Message-ID:

Hi Rebecca,
It appears you are using the CGI flavour of MapServer, which is also how I
use MapServer.
The header / footer and results templates work as follows: (at least the
way I do it)
1. you submit your query to mapserver, by clicking on the map (or sending
query information via URL parameters).
2. MapServer parses together the results webpage, starting with the main
Header file, which you use to layout the structure of the page, such as a
title, the start of a table to show the results, whatever else you want at
the top of your page, etc.
3. For the first layer containing query results, MapServer parses the
Header template you've made that is specific to that map layer, the HEADER
"xxx" parameter within a layer in your mapfile.
This header can be used to add the layer name, attribute names etc for that
layer, and to layout the table structure specifically for the data that is
retrieved for this layer.
4. MapServer parses through the TEMPLATE "xxx" file for the first layer
that has results. think of this as a 'results' template. This file is
processed once for each result found for that layer by the query, if you've
set it up as a table, this template adds rows of results into the resulting
webpage.
5. steps 3 and 4 are repeated for any other layers that returned results.
6. MapServer closes off the webpage with the Footer template, where you can
close off the html table, or add whatever you want to be shown beneath the
results.
You list your main Header and Footer template files in the WEB section of
your mapfile. Every layer for which you want to show query results must have
its own Header and Template files. I find it convenient to name them to
match the name of your layer, with a _header or _results appended to the
end, such as soilassay_header.htm and soilassay_results.htm.
The CGI values in your result templates need to be [UPPER_CASE] for
shapefile layers, and [lower_case] for postgis layers.
It is a good idea to include a TOLERANCE and TOLERANCEUNITS for each layer
being queried, some versions of mapserver have some funny quirks if you
leave them out.
I would suggest that you take your existing queryresults_template file, and
split it out into the main Header and Footer files, and a header and
template file for that first layer, then copy and modify the header and
template files to suit the other layers for which you want results.
You can view how this system works for me at the following mapserver
website:
http://24.87.220.99/ms/iwafs.html
... Click on the 'Highlights' tab at the top right of the page, and then
view map number 3. Query the map with the ' i ' tool in a spot where there's

Good luck,

Subject: wfs server problem
Message-ID:

The warnings or errors are because of the fact that your GIS attributes contain special characters, like ?, and this is not allowed for XML element names.

I think the only thing you could do is rename your GIS attributes, so Categorie instead of Cat?gorie. Maybe something else is possible with Steve's new GML3 output, which is more flexible, but I don't have enough knowledge of that.

Subject: wfs server problem
Message-ID:

I don't think Mapinfo WFS client can talk to Mapserver.

What I know of it, MapInfo WFS client does not send the map= parameter when doing a request.

Check with a better WFS client like Cadcorp SIS Mapbrowser, which is also free.

Best regards,
Bart

Subject: serving WMS true color maps
Message-ID:

I'm using Mapserver to serve RBG satellite images as WMS. They are stored as RGB GeoTIFFs. This proves to be a very efficient solution.
Unfortunately, most of the client applications accessing the data don't allow the user to choose the format, and I end up with 8-bit data beeing displayed.

It looks like you cannot restrict formats available in the WMS GetCapabilities document. You always have image/png, image/gif (I tried with Mapserver 4.4 and 4.7 from FWTools.)
Is there a way around that issue?
I'd like to serve only image/jpeg and maybe image/png;mode=24bits.

I tried to set my layers to opaque (since jpeg doesn't support transparency), but it doesn't help with the clients.
The clients I'd like to use are:
- Udig 1.0.0 (not beta)
- ESRI ArcMap 8.3 + OGC plugin

If you can help, it will be most welcome.
thanks,
Frederic Claudel

PS: I actually think the WMS spec needs a way for a client to explicitly ask for an indexed / or truecolor map.

Frederic,

You are correct that currently I don't think there is a way to restrict
the builtin formats from being offered for WMS. However, you can
override the built-ins if you use the same name for an outputformat.
So you could create an outputformat called GIF, but set all the
parameters up as png24 or jpeg.

It is a very small change to the code to comment out some of
the default formats, but if you are using pre-built binaries I can
see that would not be convenient.

There has been some discussion of a mechanism (perhaps
WEB object level metadata) to control the list of formats offered
for WMS but nothing has been done on that. If you are willing
you could try and promote that activity on mapserver-dev. I
would likely be willing to implement such a feature if you took
care of bringing forward a proposal and getting it approved by the
TSC. Something like:
METADATA
"wms_formats" "gif,png,png24"
END

in the web section. If not found, the default output format list will
be used (as now).

I think there is also an open bug report on this issue, mostly related
to excluding non-raster formats like pdf, html and so forth in
capabilities reports.

> The clients I'd like to use are:
> - Udig 1.0.0 (not beta)

I would also encourage you to advocate greater user control for
formats with the uDig team.

> PS: I actually think the WMS spec needs a way for a client to explicitly ask for an indexed / or truecolor map.

I concur. The opaqueness of format features in WMS is a frustration to
me as well.

Ah, but has the email been scanned for thought-crime? Perhaps that
is a new area of potential in the mail scanning business.

Message-ID:

I'm just getting started with mapserver and was hoping to be able to play
around with the demo (http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/dload.html). I'm
reasonably certain that my system (XP Pro SP2) is configured correctly,
because I can run some of the other simple examples I've found on the
Mapserver home page (I downloaded the 4.4.1 binary and set it up according
to the readme file). When I tried to run the demo (from the index.html
page), however, IIS crashed with a 502 error, so I went to the command line
and tried the following:

C:\Inetpub\Scripts>mapserv
"QUERY_STRING=map=c:/inetpub/wwwroot/workshop/itasca.
map&layer=lakespy2&layer=dlgstln2&zoomsize=1&program=http://localhost/cgi-bin/ma
pserv.exe&root=http://localhost/workshop&map_web_imagepath=c:/inetpub/wwwroot/tm
p&map_web_imageurl=http://localhost/tmp&map_web_template=itasca_basic.html"

As soon as I run the command, however, an error window pops up with the
following error signature:

AppName: mapserv.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: ntdll.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.2180 Offset: 00018fea

which I have to assume is the cause of the 502 error.

Has anyone run into this problem before? Or know what the cause might be? Or
know if I'm just doing something wrong? (If you don't have XP or can't
reproduce the problem I can post the stack dump.)

and then set its size appropriately? I'm not sure if there is a good way

It only dies in IIS when I run the demo (so far, anyway). I am, for example, able to run the "Hello World" example on the recipes page (http://www.mobilegeographics.com/mapserver/). Aside from the parameters that get passed from the index.html page (reproduced below), I've set the following in the itasca.map file:

SHAPEPATH "c:/inetpub/wwwroot/workshop/data"

WMS_ONLINERESOURCE "http://localhost/workshop/index.html"

I'm going to try running the example on a win2k box and see if it's something specific to XP (I've tried a couple of different XP boxes with the same result).

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver demo crash
Message-ID:

Hi

I didn't follow all the conversation but as a windows user, I can tell you that 90% of the problem with mapserver and IIS come from permission problem. Run filemon (http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Filemon.html) while loading the page and check the result to see if there's any ACCESS DENIED or suspicious FILE NOT FOUND.

Hope this helps

Objet : Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver demo crash

It only dies in IIS when I run the demo (so far, anyway). I am, for example, able to run the "Hello World" example on the recipes page (http://www.mobilegeographics.com/mapserver/). Aside from the parameters that get passed from the index.html page (reproduced below), I've set the following in the itasca.map file:

SHAPEPATH "c:/inetpub/wwwroot/workshop/data"

WMS_ONLINERESOURCE "http://localhost/workshop/index.html"

I'm going to try running the example on a win2k box and see if it's something specific to XP (I've tried a couple of different XP boxes with the same result).

If you want to generate surfaces and contours, check out GMT, very
nice toolkit... if you want to read things like ESRI TIN files...

Travis,

There are no currently plans to try and generate TINs with gdal_contour
or GDAL/OGR in general.

As Paul mentions, GMT may be useful, and you can gdal_translate
data to GMT raster fromat using the GMT driver.

GRASS also has quite a bit of DEM modelling and may include TIN
handling.

hallo,
GRASS support for TIN is very limited. It can generate tins from point
vector, but it can not be used as DTM for further analysis.

Jeff,

I tried that already.

What I'm basically after is a sysmbol that is a empty circle with a
thickness aplied to the line. Ideally it would be a symbol like
anyother that I could apply a COLOR and OUTLINECOLOR to.

Paco's idea of the close "u" shap would work if I didn't need to outline it.

I also ran into another slight problem as well (may Paco has some ideas
about this too.)

I was trying to use this symbol as a distance measuring tool. but
seemed to run into a snag with a size limit. I couldn't get the symbol
to go over a certain pixel size. The circle is supposed to represent
a distance buffer in miles (ground units).

If I zoom in too close, the symbol won't get any larger than a certain
size, about 500 pixels I would guess. I actually have three of these
symbols stacked on top of each other for different distances. But the
size of the symbol grow as I zoom in, but once I hit this max pixel
size, the sysbol stop growing at this approx 500 pixel size.

Thanks

Subject: Donut Symbol.
Message-ID:

A dynamic donut is not possible given the way MapServer currently works.

The way point symbols work is that a raster marker image is rendered based
on the properties of the symbol and a SINGLE style. So this has to be accomplished
within the context of a symbol definition or a style definition. Multiple styles will not
help you because the base circle would already obscure anything underneath it.

We could change the way an ELLIPSE symbol is rendered so that if you have
additional second set of radii defined then that defines the hole. But the problem
still remains that you need to specify sizes for the inner and outer ring which would
involve changes to the style object- yuck.

One could look at rendering all styles at once as well rather then in turn. You'd just
define the hole somehow as a style. Nice idea but not doable at the moment.

I wonder if a better approach would be to think about this particular problem as
an exercise in combining a couple of maps. You certainly can use MapServer to build
the base image, and you can also use MapServer to draw the rings in a seperate
images (draw the big ring, and then draw the hole using the background color for
the whole image). You just need to figure out how to combine them.

You could use DHTML or MapScript to do this. I bet there's a way to do it using straight
CGI (draw the rings as a raster layer in the second map) if we knew more about the
application. For example, you might create the ring image and then refer to it as a
layer in the base image. With AJAX you could do that using the CGI.

Subject: Generating a table & map sharing identifiers

So, after getting nothing back but comments on my ASCII-art (mostly

fairly simple solution. I thought I'd post it back to the list, so it's
below (after the problem statement)...

So, I found that you can indeed solve this with a strictly PostGIS
solution. It still might not be the best, but since it works I thought
I'd post it.

The trick is to write a PL/PGSQL function that returns a counter that is
unique to the current session, but that doesn't involve any setup ahead of
time (like createing a sequence). Once you have that, you have to sort
your shapes, and then add the counter to the results before they go back
to mapserver. If you add the counter and then sort, you won't get the
results you want.

So, here's an example:

The original Layer showed the nearest 10 sinkholes to a point (if they
were within 3 miles). The POINT() below was actually found dynamically):

DATA "hole from (select oid, hole from FROM all_sinkholes_km \
WHERE hole && buffer(pointfromtext('POINT(249895.731374337 1349408.0255176)', 26759),3*5280)
ORDER BY distance(hole, pointfromtext('POINT(249895.731374337 1349408.0255176)', 26759))
limit 10) as innerQ using unique oid using SRID=26759"

The code that generated the HTML table used a query with the same WHERE
clause, but selecting different info for the table. However, it had the
same ORDER BY and LIMIT, so they were returned in the right order.

The goal was to add a column to the HTML table that had "MAP ID" as the
header and "A", "B", etc. as the column values, and then to put "A","B",
etc as the labels on the points returned on the map.

The DATA section was changed to this:

DATA "hole from (select oid, mapCounter('sinkhole', 'A') as label, hole
FROM (select hole from all_sinkholes_km WHERE hole &&
buffer(pointfromtext('POINT(249895.731374337 1349408.0255176)',
26759), 3*5280)
ORDER BY distance(hole, pointfromtext('POINT(249895.731374337 1349408.0255176)', 26759))
limit 10) as innerQ) as outerQ using unique oid using SRID=26759"

This returns the same holes, but with a field named 'label' that has "A",
"B", etc to use in the mapfile LABELITEM.

Here's the code to mapCounter()

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION mapCounter(text, char) RETURNS text AS '
DECLARE
seqName ALIAS FOR $1;
startChar ALIAS FOR $2;
seqAvail integer;
result text;
BEGIN
seqAvail := count(*) from pg_class where relname = seqName AND pg_table_is_visible(oid);
IF seqAvail = 0 THEN
EXECUTE '' CREATE TEMPORARY SEQUENCE '' || seqName;
END IF ;
result := chr((ascii(startChar) - 1 + nextval(seqName))::integer);
return result;
END;
' LANGUAGE plpgsql;

The function takes two parameters, a unique identifier that must be a
valid PostgreSQL sequence name, and a starting character. It checks to see
if there's already a temporary sequence of that name in the current
session, and creates one if not, then it just returns the sequence.

I have found this very helpful for adding labels to CGI-type Mapserver
apps, and think it would help in WMS/WFS services as well.

I hope this helps someone.

In-Reply-To:
Message-ID:

Another approach is to handle this on the data side: either in Mapscript
or in the database if your data is in PostGIS (and perhaps through OGR:
Frank?)

What I do for this is simply have the data set return a buffer() around
the point and then display the layer as a POLYGON rather than a point.

So, if your original data was in PostGIS and your DATA line was:

DATA "myPoint from (SELECT oid, myPoint from myTable WHERE someField =
'someValue') as foo using unique oid using SRID=1234"

You could just change that to:

DATA "myPoint from (SELECT oid, buffer(myPoint, myRingsize) from myTable
WHERE someField = 'someValue') as foo using unique oid using SRID=1234"

and change your layer from POINT to POLYGON

I don't know if OGR can do buffer(), but certainly you could look into it.

All,

The need:

This is for locating points that Photographs were taken at around the (
few hundred thousand of them) city. The idea is for the user to pick a
point on a map, along with a MIN & MAX distance (in ground units) away
from the point picked. This Donut shaped area is where all the photo's
that were taken and generally looking in the direction of the point
picked, wihin 20-30 degrees for example (did I mention the photo data is
all in a database, complete with a compass heading for the direction of
view) and these are listed out for review by the users in a film strip
fashion. Like walking around the point in the field. We have the
selection and outputting working for the photography, but I can't seem
to figure out a way to display this donut shape, in the map.

I'm using two circles on top of one another at the moment for this, but
the inner area is currently filled in. I was just trying to get to a
point where only the donut area is filled in. The closed Donut symbol
shape that Paco came up with is the closest so far to what I'm looking
for, and will do for our needs. I don't know that this is a big enough
deal to reprogram anything at this point. I was just wondering if there
were a way to handle it.

The Symbol method would be the best choice for this application as the
View can be zoomed into and out of. at will by the users, so the donut
shape can scale in relation to the view size. (see other problem below.)

-----------

On a related item. Is there some sort of Symbol (PIXEL) size limit in
place? I can't seem to make a Symbol generate any bigger than around
500 pixels? If I zoom into a spot too close for example, the symbol for
this buffer area stops getting any bigger. There is no error generated,
the symbol is just rendered at this max setting after a certain zoom
level is reached.

Some more info, I'm using multiple circles in my example, all statically
sized (in ground units) so as I zoom in they should all stay the same
ratio in size to each other as they grow, but when the outer circle hits
this limit, it just stops growing, and the inner circle continue to grow
until they reach this limit.

Hmm, sounds like overkill for my needs, but it does give me another idea.

Using Paco's method of a closed "U" shap symbol, I could stack two
circle outlines on top of the closed Ushape and use those for the
outline colors of the filled donut area.

It's not pretty, but I won't tell anyone if you don't.

The sizing of the radius for offset is dynamic and being sent to the
sever, so your thoughts are certainly relevent.

Thanks for the ideas. I had thought about drawing a PolyShape with a
HOLE in it as well. But this even seemed like overkill. As a matter
of fact, I've probably put to much into it already at this point :c)

Bob,

If your points are stored in PostGIS, there are ways of getting this
perfect. It's not always pretty, and can require some Nasty SQL, , but
I'd be happy to work with you offline on this (and you can post the
results back to the list).

The need:

This is for locating point that Photographs were taken around a city.
The idea is for the user to pick a point on a map, along with a MIN &
MAX distance (in ground units) away from the point picked. This Donut
shaped area is where all the photo's that were taken and generally
looking in the direction of the point picked (did I mention the photo
data is all in a database, complete with a compass heading for the
direction of view) will be listed out. We have the selection and
outputting working for the photography, but I can't seem to figure out a
way to display this donut shape, in the map.

I'm using two circles on top of one another at the moment for this, but
the inner area is currenly filled in. I was just trying to get to a
point where only the donut area is filled in. The closed Donut symbol
shape that Paco came up with is the closest so far to what I'm looking

Hello,

I'm totally new with MapServer and I'm ready to create the .map,
"container" web page, and initialization html file, but I don't know
where to put them or how to tell mapserver where to look for them.

Is there a special place that MapServer looks for these files?

Folks,

I just wanted to mention that OGR SQL does not do geometric
operations like buffer. It is also very simplistic in the sorts
of SELECT statements it supports, so generally when you want to
do this sort of cool stuff you need a real RDBMS. Of course,
OGR does support passing sophisticated SQL through to the
RDBMS when operating against an RDBMS.

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver demo crash
Message-ID:

I've had slightly better luck with Win2k, but still can't get the
demo running. When I try to initialize the demo, filemon shows that
mapserv.exe is reporting success reading
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\workshop\symbols\ctyhwy.png, but
then immediately calls Dr. Watson to generate an event in the
application log and promptly times out. The error reported is as
follows:

Event Type: Information
Event Source: DrWatson
Event Category: None
Event ID: 4097
Date: 8/3/2005
Time: 4:32:48 PM
User: N/A

Description:
The application, , generated an application error The error occurred on 08/03/2005 @ 16:32:48.859 The exception generated was c0000005 at address 77F8F281 (RtlpWaitForCriticalSection)

The only other suspicious thing I see is that before trying to open ctyhwy.png mapserv.exe tries and fails to open the location c:\usr\local\lib - which I assume is hard-coded into the executable, because I can't find that path anywhere in the demo files.

Does anyone know if the demo is backward compatible with older versions of mapserver? I'm running the 4.4.1 Windows binary, but grabbed the demo from the 4.6 release.

The points are in Oracle right now, but as I indicated earlier, I think

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver demo crash
Message-ID:

Well, I was finally able to get the demo working. I had to remove two layers
from the map file to do so, but c'est la vie. If anyone could shed some
light on why this would make a difference, I'd certainly appreciate it (I
thought maybe a corrupt png file at first, but that doesn't appear to be the
case). Anyway, in case any other Windows users run into this problem,
removing the following layers from the itasca.map file got the demo working:

LAYER
NAME ctyrdln3_anno

LAYER
NAME majrdln3_anno

(For complete layer source, please refer to the itasca.map file included
with the demo.)

crash

I've had slightly better luck with Win2k, but still can't get the
demo running. When I try to initialize the demo, filemon shows that
mapserv.exe is reporting success reading
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\workshop\symbols\ctyhwy.png, but
then immediately calls Dr. Watson to generate an event in the
application log and promptly times out. The error reported is as
follows:

Event Type: Information
Event Source: DrWatson
Event Category: None
Event ID: 4097
Date: 8/3/2005
Time: 4:32:48 PM
User: N/A
Computer: MGARRISH
Description:
The application, , generated an application error The error occurred on
08/03/2005 @ 16:32:48.859 The exception generated was c0000005 at address
77F8F281 (RtlpWaitForCriticalSection)

The only other suspicious thing I see is that before trying to open
ctyhwy.png mapserv.exe tries and fails to open the location
c:\usr\local\lib - which I assume is hard-coded into the executable, because
I can't find that path anywhere in the demo files.

Does anyone know if the demo is backward compatible with older versions of
mapserver? I'm running the 4.4.1 Windows binary, but grabbed the demo from
the 4.6 release.

Subject: Highlight Features
Message-ID:

Hello All,

Using PHP/Mapscript 4.4. Trying to highlight feature in polygon layer,
such as subdivisions. I use:

$layer->setFilter("");
$sFilter = "('[subdivname]' = '$sSubDivsion')";
$layer->setFilter($sFilter);

PROBLEM: ONLY THAT SPECIFIC FEATURE IS DRAWN. If I use:

$sFilter = "('[subdivname]' != '$sSubDivsion')";

PROBLEM: ALL FEATURES DRAWN EXCEPT ONE OF INTEREST, WHICH IS OK EXCEPT IN
PLACES WHERE THE BOUNDARY OF THE FEATURE OF INTEREST HAS NO SURROUNDING
POLYGONS. WHEN THIS IS THE CASE, THE BOUNDARY OF FEATURE IS NOT SHOWN.

QUESTION: HOW DO I DRAW ALL FEATURES WITHIN POLYGON LAYER AND ALSO
HIGHLIGHT THE FEATURE(S) OF INTEREST IN A DIFFERENT COLOR

Thanks, Rob

Subject: dynamic data source
Message-ID:

Hello Everybody,

Here's something that I'm stuck with. I have a program that automatically
generates a WBMP file. These get generated automatically every time a
certain request is done, and then needs to be used as a normal data source
for that user. I'm currently using mapserver (cgi-style) to display some
dynamic points on a bunch of base layers, and I would like to use this
generated WBMP as a base layer as well.

Now my question is, how can i do this dynamic include of the generated WBMP.
I have a distinct feeling I'll have to use mapscript. BTW, i'm using
Java/JSP for my web-app.

Any help in this would be greatly appritiated.

cheers guyz,

Ajay

Subject: Highlight Features
In-Reply-To:
Message-ID:

Rob,

the easiest way would be using the querymap function like
...
// Execute a query (here an attribute query)
$queryString = "('[subdivname]' = '$sSubDivsion')";
$your_layer->queryByAttributes('subdivname', $queryString, MS_MULTIPLE);

// Draw map
$mapImg = $map->drawQuery(); // instead of $map->draw()
...

You can specify colors for highlighting in a QUERYMAP tag in the map file.

A more flexible solution (but more complex) is to add an additional
layer containing only the selected feature and add this layer to the map
on top of the base layer:
1) create a new layer
2) get the shape index of the feature to be drawn and then add
it to the new layer
3) define the styles/colors etc for this feature

If you're interested I can send you some code for this latter version.

When calling mapserver to create the map using a template html file,
you use a URL that contains the initial information in ot - namely the
path to the map file itself. The mapfile contains the path to the
template file and all of the other information mapserver needs to
render the page.

Here's an example of a URL:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:/ms4w/apache/htdocs/mymaps/test.map&mode=browse

The test.map file would contain a TEMPLATE line in the WEB section as
well as many other basic configuration options.

Subject: using mappoint as layer provider
Message-ID:

Hi,

I'm currently building an application that need to have a worldwide map
background. The only provider I have found at this moment is Mappoint.

Has someone already used Mappoint as WMS provider for MapServer ? Or
with php-mapscript ? If yes, I would be very interested in some
explanation or sample code.

Thank you all in advance,

Didrik

Hello All,

Using PHP/Mapscript 4.4. Trying to highlight feature in polygon layer,
such as subdivisions. I use:

$layer->setFilter("");
$sFilter = "('[subdivname]' = '$sSubDivsion')";
$layer->setFilter($sFilter);

PROBLEM: ONLY THAT SPECIFIC FEATURE IS DRAWN. If I use:

$sFilter = "('[subdivname]' != '$sSubDivsion')";

PROBLEM: ALL FEATURES DRAWN EXCEPT ONE OF INTEREST, WHICH IS OK EXCEPT IN
PLACES WHERE THE BOUNDARY OF THE FEATURE OF INTEREST HAS NO SURROUNDING
POLYGONS. WHEN THIS IS THE CASE, THE BOUNDARY OF FEATURE IS NOT SHOWN.

QUESTION: HOW DO I DRAW ALL FEATURES WITHIN POLYGON LAYER AND ALSO
HIGHLIGHT THE FEATURE(S) OF INTEREST IN A DIFFERENT COLOR

Thanks, Rob

Message-ID:

Hello Rob,

to hilite a single feature you can try this :

- create a new class based on an existing class
- set an expression for this class, something like::

$strExpression = "('[".$DBaseFieldname."]' = '".$ObjectID."')";
- set a style for the new class
- and then move the new class on top

Ex.:

$objLayer = $objMap->getLayerByName($hlLayer);
$objClass0 = $objLayer->getclass(0);
//create a new class based on a existing one::
$objClass1 = ms_newclassobj($objLayer,$objClass0);

$objClass1->setExpression($strExpression);
//create a style object for the new class
$objStyle = $objClass1->getStyle(0);
$objStyle->color->setRGB(255,255,0);
$objStyle->outlinecolor->setRGB(0,0,0);

//move the new class on top
$numClasses = $objLayer->numclasses;
for($i=0;$i<$numClasses;$i++)
{
$objLayer->moveclassup($numClasses-$i);
}

draw the map
....
$objImage=$objMap->draw();

Well, the QIX is a spatial index, not an attribute index. But someone
might want to check the source code and see if attribute filtering makes

use of the subset of spatial objects or just dumbly scans all the
attributes then rejects based on spatial criteria.

I highly recommend Siege from

http://www.joedog.org/

I have used this extensively for testing mapserver and mapfiles with
good results. It is easy to set up can use. I use a perl script to
generate urls for it, but I think there is a tool the will scan you web
logs and convert them into input files for Siege depending on how your
application generates urls.

$pdf->Image("C:/tmp$legend_url",655,150 );
$pdf->Output();
?>

This will not work for you, however key is to use

$image=$map->draw();
$image_url=$image->saveWebImage();

(and similar for reference, scalebar, legend)
Then when you have the image url, use the pdf library functions
to include images in pdf. If png format give you problems with fpdf, it's
due to alpha channel => try jpg format.

Subject: problem with truetype symbols and typeimage
Message-ID:

Hi there:

I?m using mapserver 4.6 within MS4W 1.2.1.

I have a problem with truetype symbols. I?m using several TT fonts to
symbolize point layers, but when I use IMAGETYPE= JPEG, the points are
symbolized as filled rectangles, not the corresponding font.
The issue is solved when I switch IMAGETYPE to PNG, but then when I zoom
the colors change,(I know is because the 256 colors palette issue)even
though my map is quite far from using 256 colors.
so, in order to summarize:

1)Why the TT font symbols appear filled with IMAGETYPE= JPEG?
2)I?ve read in MS web page that PNG is a recommended output format for
maps, but how come if this format shifts colors even though you use less
than 256 colors in a map?

Hi,

a) Yes.

b1) You can pass an SLD to mapserv to highlight the desired
Polygon. That will require another request to the server
though.
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/sld-howto.html

b2) You can use SVG.
http://maps.dnr.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv40?map=/usr/local/www/docs/testing/svg/test.map&mode=itemnquery&qitem=cty_name&qstring=/./&qlayer=county

http://lists.gis.umn.edu/pipermail/mapserver-users/2003-December/008640.html

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/svg-howto.html

b3) You can do it with ImageMaps, JavaScript and DOM. Use
the ImageMap generated by Mapserver as a guide to draw
the Polygon's border with JavaScript... sounds crazy
but might work, and it wouldn't require a refresh or
additional plugins :)

Hi Chris,
After looking up the EPSG code for a similar sounding projection, this gives results closer to what you are looking for:
cs2cs +proj=latlong +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +to +proj=lcc +lat_1=40.66666666666666 +lat_2=41.03333333333333 +lat_0=40.16666666666666 +lon_0=-74 +x_0=300000 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +to_meter=0.3048006096012192

Input: -73.994992 40.717690
Output: 985638.25 200750.38 0.00

Where did you get cs2cs and your proj environment from? Depending on this, you may have a shorthand way of calling this, if you put a couple lines into your epsg code file. Follow up with us to get that done if you are interested. That would result in a much shorter cs2cs line:

cs2cs +init=epsg:4326 +to +init=102718

A bit easier to read ;)
Hope that helps!

Tyler, thank you *very* much. I'll have to try to
parse through that and learn the parameters better.

My cs2cs is from the proj-4.4.9 release. I'm getting
an error for the 2nd init:
cs2cs +init=epsg:4326 +to +init=102718
Using to definition: init=102718
Rel. 4.4.9, 29 Oct 2004

program abnormally terminated

I'm very interested in getting the proper proj
environment in order to user the simplified version.
Do you know where I could find it?

Oops, I should have written "+init=epsg:102718"

When +init=epsg: is used, it looks up all the parameters from a proj4 text file called 'epsg'. Find that on your system and then add these two lines at the end:

# NAD 1983 StatePlane New York Long Island FIPS 3104
Feet <102718> +proj=lcc +lat_1=40.66666666666666 +lat_2=41.03333333333333 +lat_0=40.16666666666666 +lon_0=-74 +x_0=300000 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +to_meter=0.3048006096012192 no_defs <>

Then you should be able to use the syntax I provided. Hope that helps!

Subject: layer->queryByFeatures strangeness
Message-ID:

Hi all

I have discovered a strange difference between mapServer 4.4.2 and mapServer
4.6.0. - particularly with the $layer->queryByFeatures() method under
PHP/Mapscript.

Currently I have two machines configured as below

Machine #1
Fedora Core 3
PHP 5.0.3 :: './configure' '--enable-shared' '--with-regex=system'
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib'

SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WFS_CLIENT INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL
INPUT=SHAPEFILE

Machine #2
Fedora Core 4
PHP 5.0.3 :: './configure' '--enable-shared' '--with-regex-system'
'--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib' '--with-gd=/usr/local'
'--with-freetype-dir=/usr' '--enable-force-cgi-redirect' '--enable-dbase'
'--with-pdflib' '--with-mysql' '--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php/'
'--prefix=/usr/local/php'
MapServer version 4.6.0 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=WBMP OUTPUT=SVG
SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT
SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=THREADS INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL
INPUT=SHAPEFILE

There is no relevant part of the map file - both layers that are relevant
are dynamically loaded depending on the request.

The relevant script is as follows (PHP):

// this is a dynamically loaded point layer - MapInfo format
$lyr_currentLink = ms_newLayerObj($ms_map);
$lyr_currentLink->set('name',$my_link_name);
$lyr_currentLink->set('type',MS_LAYER_POINT);
$lyr_currentLink->set('status',MS_ON);
$lyr_currentLink->set('connection',"myLocationData.TAB");
$lyr_currentLink->set('connectiontype',MS_OGR);
$lyr_currentLink->setProjection("proj=latlong");
$obj_linkClass = ms_newClassObj($lyr_currentLink);
$obj_linkClass->set('template','NULL');
// there is more script defining colors etc. . . .

// this is a dynamically loaded polygon district layer - MapInfo format
$lyr_districts = ms_newLayerObj($ms_map);
$lyr_districts->set('name',$my_districts);
$lyr_districts->set('type',MS_LAYER_POLYGON);
$lyr_districts->set('connection',"myDistricts.TAB");
$lyr_districts->set('connectiontype',MS_OGR);
$lyr_districts->setProjection("proj=latlong");
$obj_districtsClass = ms_newClassObj($lyr_districts);
$obj_districtsClass->set('template','NULL');
// more script defining colors etc. . . .

// get the correct district based on the request - querying against the
field "DN" with the $my_district_number from the request.
$b_qRes=$lyr_districts->queryByAttributes("DN",$my_district_number,"MS_SINGLE");
$obj_district = $lyr_districts->getResult(0);
// NOTE: I open the layer and get the feature for drawing later - perhaps
this is part of the problem and there is a better way to draw the particular
district? using the layer->drawQuery() method? would this make a difference?
$lyr_districts->open();
$ftr_district=$lyr_districts->getShape($obj_district->tileindex,$obj_district->shapeindex);
// then I create a new layer and add the $ftr_district to the new layer with
all of its colors etc. . . .

// now for the problem query - specificially to count the point data within
the district
$lyr_currentLink->queryByFeatures($lyr_districts->index);
$str_locationCount = $lyr_currentLink->getNumResults();

now for the wierdness: on both machines the code executes without error, BUT
on the 4.4.2 version I get the correct number and on the 4.6.0 version I get
an incorrect count (it is way to high).

As an aside - I have tried using the $layer->queryByShape($ftr_district)
method and keep getting errors (either mapServer crashes entirely with no
visible error message in 4.4.2 or, once again the wrong count in 4.6.0 -
incidentally it is the SAME wrong count) - this includes the reprojection of
the $ftr_district->project($inProj,$outProj) to make sure that there are no
projection problems/conflicts.

any help on this would be great - I would like to use the 4.6.0 version, but
right now I cannot get it to return the correct result - perhaps a bug??? or
perhaps I am doing something wrong???

and another aside - which documentation set is current????
http://ms.gis.umn.edu/ OR http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/
or is
http://ms.gis.umn.edu/ for 4.6.0 and
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/ for 4.2.?

and finally in the mapscript documentation at http://ms.gis.umn.edu/ it
shows using $layer->queryByFeatures as follows:

queryByFeatures( mapObj map, int slayer )

but when I include the mapObj in the parameters I get a "invalid _handle_
property" error - even on the machine with 4.6.0. Is there some explanation
for this? Could it be related to the previously noted bugs with queries on
dynamically loaded layers? Should I be including the mapObj parameter? It
seems to function (but with the wrong count as noted above) without the
mapObj parameter.

I will continue to play with this . . . perhaps make the districts layer
part of the map file and see what happens on the 4.6.0 machine.

thanks

Subject: Two Keymaps??
Message-ID:

Hello All-

I am playing with including two keymaps in my application (one that is more
useful when zoomed in, and one when zoomed out). They would be displayed
simultaneously. I am having some trouble doing this, though it doesn't seem
like it should be too tough.

I am also using Chameleon (the Keymap DHTML widget). However, I think my
first task towards accomplishing this would be on the MapServer end. When I
place a second Reference object in the mapfile, I receive the error that
there is a dupilcate item:

*Warning*: [MapServer Error]: getString(): Duplicate item (IMAGE):(line 49)
in *C:\ms4w\apps\chameleon\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php* on line *
215*

*Warning*: Failed to open map file
C:\ms4w\apps\chameleon\lscmp\htdocs/../map/wlscmp.map in *
C:\ms4w\apps\chameleon\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php* on line *215*

*Fatal error*: Call to a member function on a non-object in *
C:\ms4w\apps\chameleon\htdocs\widgets\KeyMapDHTML\KeyMapDHTML.widget.php* on
line *115

*
Might there be a simple solution? Or would I need to rewrite a bunch of code
somewhere (if so, where?)? I would really appreciate any hints you can pass
along. Thanks in advance for your help!

Message-ID:

Hi All!

Could You give me some advice?

I need to set up a commercial map site based on the mapserver, I know a bit
mapserver but I'd like to ask You about efficiency and security issues.

I'm planning to base this service on two servers: first - application
server, with www server and mapserver, and second database server with
vector data in a database like PostgreSQL, so the first question is: Is this
approache correct?, maybe it's not needed to separate the application server
from database server, and what about the efficiency and data security in
both cases?

And another thing: if I choose to separate application and www server from
database server is it nessesary to deal with WMS and WFS Mapserver or maybe
regular Mapserver can comunicate with a database placed on database server?

Many Thanks for Your advice!

Best Regards

Subject: 3 little Questions
Message-ID:

Hi list,

Question 1 (of 3):
maybe a simple question: How in general can I change the width of a
line(vectordata)?

Maybe not with 'SIZE' because regardless of which SIZE 1 or SIZE 50 or SIZE
100 there is allways a fine line.

CLASS
NAME "XC_Rivers"
STYLE
SYMBOL 0
COLOR 72 0 254
SIZE 100
MINSIZE 1
MAXSIZE 100
END
END

---------------------------------------
Question 2 (of 3):
I'd like to show a layer (polygones) with the population density in 5 clases
(in different colors).

I made the map file like in centrope_wms_bevdichte_2.map in the attachement
is shown. e.g. with this:

CLASS # Low Density
MAXSCALE 120000
MINSCALE 500
EXPRESSION ([Bev_class]=1) #if it is a string ('[FIELD]'='value')
SYMBOL 1
COLOR 248 147 147
SIZE 1
END

CLASS # High Density
MAXSCALE 120000
MINSCALE 500
EXPRESSION ([Bev_class]=2)
SYMBOL 1
COLOR 249 36 36
SIZE 1
END

But I only get this message:
msDrawMap():Failed to draw layer named `Bev_Density'.

Someone has an idea about this?
--------------------------------------------

Question 3 (of 3):
I have a satellite tif for my background. It is in color. But in my client
it is only shown in black and white.

Do I have to change some command line here?
(map file for satellite picture is also in attachement:
centrope_wms_sat.map)

---------------------------------------------

Thanks a lot for everybody, who is trying to help me here a little bit.

Best regards,
Leopold

Hi Leopold,

Q1: you will need to use a style that uses a vector symbol, e.g.

SYMBOL
NAME "circle"
TYPE ellipse
FILLED true
POINTS
1 1
END
END

then you can use the SIZE parameter in the mapfile on that symbol.

Q2: Are you sre mapserver finds your shapefile in ./data? Did you try to
use an absolute path to your data directory?

Q3: Not sure, but did you try using a 24-bit output format, e.g. png24 ?

Cheers, Michael

Message-ID:

Hi all,

after I moved from MapServer 4.4.1 to 4.6.0 I have problem using WFS DescribeFeatureType request.
I normally used mapserv 4.4.1 for getting information about layer attributes. But 4.6.0 returns no attribute information at all.

Here are examples that ilustrate my problem:

DescribeFeatureType response on 4.4.1:

And DescribeFeatureType response on 4.6.0 (with the same data source):

Maybe the problem is in bad compilation.
I will appreciate every reaction.

Subject: Application and data server
In-Reply-To:
Message-ID:

Hi Artur!

This is a tricky one. It really depends on the trafic you have on your
website. For a moderate trafic website you only need a basic
installation. One server with MapServer + PostGIS + Application.

However if you get too much traffic for a single server, you may want to
separate the Application and MapServer. MapServer is usually what takes
the most ressource of a server. This is more true when it is poorly
configured. So before doing that, make sure you have tuned your data,
mapfile and server. The first things you should check are removing the
PROJECTION blocks and the filters (For any other advice ask the list).
Other than that, there's no real problem to put the database and
MapServer on the same machine I think.

In the case you decide to separate PostGIS and MapServer on 2 different
machines, you don't need to use WFS or WMS. You can connect to PostGIS
like usual I think.

Best regards,
Julien

PS: There's information in the wiki about security issues.

Subject: Two Keymaps??
In-Reply-To: <817c010105082921096bf1acb6@mail.gmail.com>
Message-ID:

Jennifer,

you can't do this with stock MapServer as the mapfile structure will not
permit it.

With some mapscript intervention, you can replace the image in the
reference object. I would probably approach it differently in
Chameleon, but a simple solution would be to have metadata at the map
object that contains sufficient information to replace the reference map
image.

I think you will need to know the following:

1. image
2. extents of the image
3. extents/scale to start using the image

One of the problems that I percieve with this approach is that the
purpose of having a second keymap would be to provide more detail when
you zoom in. If you have one (or possibly many) pregenerated images
then it will be possible for the user to zoom to an area that doesn't
make sense for the keymap you have generated.

You could make it extent-sensitive and divide up the 'zoomed in' keymaps :

+----+----+
| | |
+----+----+
| | |
+----+----+

but then it would be possible to zoom in at the center of this and get
poor results.

An alternate approach would be to use a second map file to define how to
draw a keymap image and have it render keymap images on the fly
depending on scale. This would be my preferred approach. You would set
scale thresholds for producing new keymaps and when they change, they
would always start at the center of where the user is currently viewing.

In Chameleon, I would add this as attributes of the keymap widgets to
abstract it away from the mapfile structure, perhaps using subtags:

The widget would then have to track scale changes as the user zooms and
pans, refreshing the keymap image each time the user moves outside the
current extents of the keymap or changes scale across a threshold.

If you decide to attempt this, lemme know and I may have some time to
help out as I think this would be a great improvement.

Cheers

Paul

Gianfranco,

The ecwsdk-3.1.25jan05 build still had a variety of bugs. I would
suggest you try the same file with the FWTools 0.9.9 for linux to
see if it works better.

I am also expecting a new ECW SDK release soon which should
bundle a fair number of fixes, and an easier build mechanism for
use with GDAL 1.3.0.

Phil,

I am suspecting that MapServer is having a hard time using
EPSG:42102. Are you use it is listed in your epsg lookup file
for PROJ.4? In cases where no reprojection is going on,
declaring it might have cause no problem.

I tried looking up 42102 with GDAL's EPSG lookup services
and found it was a cubewerx addition for BC Albers but for
some reason I had to comment out this particular coordinate
system because it was causing problems. Perhaps this somehow
relates to your problem.

Best regards,

Hi Hubb,
Since friday I worked in the maporaclespatial.c and found some

Now I'm testing the code with the updates, and after this I will

I believe that you can use the Hobu bin without problems.

Robert,

There appears to be something wrong with the mapfile. Running shp2img on
the mapfile produces the same error (for imagemap)/success (for gif).
At this point I'm not sure what the mapfile requires (particularly in
the 'style' section) where the 'imagemap' seems to be blowing up.

Hi Bart,
I submitted the legend / transparancy issue as a bug some time ago ... and
it was immediately fixed, If i remember correctly Sean Gilles had caught and
fixed the problem just before my submission, making for a super fast turn
around.
MapServer 4.4.1 had the issue, I believe 4.4.2 had the fix, 4.6 definately
is fixed.

Hi Davi,
You can do this using Mapscript, creating features on the fly.
Here we did this using PHP to query the points (X and Y) in database

Davi,

You could just connect to Oracle by ODBC and use the OGR VRT
mechanism to treat the pair of columns as x/y point locations. There
is discussion on how to do this in the wiki I believe.

You could also use the OGR OCI driver to access a non-spatial
oracle table but I think you would need to explicitly list the target
table in the datasource since normally only spatial tables are treated
as layers.

Message-ID:

Hi Gary,
Usually the issue is due to the size of the image being requested by
ArcGIS. MapServer by default can create no bigger than a 2500x2500 pixel
image, so it is easy to exceed the size in a large ArcGIS map, or a small
ArcGIS map with high resolution, and have nothing rendered.
Try zooming in to a small area to see if it makes a difference.
Also try changing your print settings ... it seems that the resolution in
your print settings will affect it, a 600dpi print resolution will request
more than mapserver can send and only cover about 4inches of paper. ... This
got me for a long time, i was able to see the WMS layers, but not print
them.
ArcGIS isn't smart enough to request multiple tiles when it hits this
problem, and ESRI has quietly buried the problem, last I checked I could
find nothing about it on their support / forum pages.
On one occasion I went through the pain of using the temp images from my
mapserver website, importing them one by one to ArcGIS to get around the
problem.
Cheers,
Ken Lord

All,

General question about using MapServer (CGI) with Oracle Forms. Anyone
else done any work with this?

Specifically We're building a point Editor, moving the point and
changing the Point attribute info. What I'm looking for is clues to
adding in the CGI parameters to the Oracle Forms output and handling the
persistance between views.

I've always done my own CGI app's directly against Oracle, this is a new
venture for me. The Attribute data is already acessible from the Oracle
Forms interface, we would like to add in a Spatial aspect to the Web
Interface.

Thanks for any info.

Gary,

I would recommend having a look at the web server log. You can see the
request ArcGIS sent to the server and run the same request in a browser
and see if you get an image back.

In some test we made ArcGIS 9 SP 3 was able to retrieve the data from a
Mapserver WMS. One problem that might occur is that ArcGIS by defalt
wants to load the data in lat/lon. But you can modify the projection and
select one of the advertised by the server once the layer is loaded in
ArcMap.

I have found JUMP to be the best open vector editing tool available. There
are lots of versions out there but I use the nightly snapshot of OpenJUMP (
http://openjump.org/wiki/show/HomePage). Unfortunately it doesn't have great
raster support but I usually set up my raster image as a WMS using mapserver
then use JUMP's WMS connector to bring it in as a base map to digitize from.

There are other desktop GIS applications like QGis, OpenEV (search Google
for FWTools), or UDig which also edit vector data but not nearly as well.
OpenEV is probably my second choice it's a bit clunky but powerful and has
great raster support so you can cut out the step of setting up the WMS
first.

Hope this helps,

Subject: Problem with Perl script and image maps
Message-ID:

In case anyone is interested, I did solve this mystery.

After spending a couple of hours with gdb and examining the source, I
tracked the Segmentation fault down to a realloc() instruction in the
im_iprintf() function located in the mapimagemap.c file. This function
appends new output onto the original string, allocating memory as
necessary to accommodate the growth of the output. The SIGSEGV was
occuring when memory needed to be reallocated, indicating that something
was writing into non-allocated space.

The source contains a compiler directive that checks for a #DEFINE that
indicates the availability of a vsnprintf() command on the local platform.
If it's not available, then the vsprintf() command is used instead. The
difference between these two commands is that vsnprintf() has a safety
stop that will end processing at a given number of bytes. vsprintf() has
no such mechanism. It took me a while to find because I knew that my
Debian Linux platform had vsnprintf(). Unfortunately, the
Mapserver 'configure' script does not seem to contain a way to properly
detect vsnprintf() and therefore the vsprintf() command was being used
instead. This command has no safety stop and there was nothing in the code
to prevent it from writing a few bytes past the end of allocated memory.
In this state, executing this code on any platform that doesn't have
vsprintf() will result in SIGSEGVs at best and corrupted memory at worst.

This problem affects not only Mapscript code, but SHP2IMG and others as
well. Fortunately there is an easy fix. If you know for sure that your
platform has vsnprintf() available, then you can SET and EXPORT "CFLAGS=-
DHAVE_VSNPRINTF" before invoking the 'configure' script. Alternately, or
if you don't know whether vsnprintf() is available, you can edit the
configure.in file and add the following line in the appropriate place:

AC_CHECK_FUNC(vsnprintf, STRINGS="-DHAVE_VSNPRINTF $STRINGS")

After editing the file, run the autoconf utility to build a
new 'configure' script. Either of those solutions should fix this problem
on affected platforms.

Rob,

I beleive this needs to be filed as a bug.
Can you add this to bugzilla?

At the minimum you'll need to include a CLASS item in your LAYER.

CLASS
COLOR 255 0 0
OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
END

In addition you might want to check the postgis connection string. Three
things that jump out at me are that

1) you must use "using UNIQUE gid"
2) you should probably rewrite it as nested selects like "SELECT geom from
(SELECT intersect(...) as geom from ...) as table using unique gid using
srid = -1"
3) be forewarned that intersections in postgis can be painfully slow.
Depending on your users need and the size of the table, it may be worth it
to pre-process this data if speed is a factor.

Also remember to put indexes on the gid column, and gist indexes on geom.
Check out the postgis docs for more details -
http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/

Hope this helps,

Check this DATA statement against the example in the postgis docs. You may
have to rewrite it a bit.

Hi Philippe,

What problems are you having exactly? More details about your system and
whatever error messages are produced will enable people to help you more.
Here's a couple of things I've found.

Go to rpmfind.net and do a search for mapserver. The
latest version found is 4.2, slightly outdated but good to play around with.

Also there's http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/unix-install-howto.html if you
fancy compiling it yourself.

Hope these helps.

Cheers,
Xin

Hi Leopold,

Q1: you will need to use a style that uses a vector symbol, e.g.

SYMBOL
NAME "circle"
TYPE ellipse
FILLED true
POINTS
1 1
END
END

then you can use the SIZE parameter in the mapfile on that symbol.

Q2: Are you sre mapserver finds your shapefile in ./data? Did you try to
use an absolute path to your data directory?

Q3: Not sure, but did you try using a 24-bit output format, e.g. png24 ?

Cheers, Michael

Hello Paul,

I struggled with the exact same issue. Seems to be a problem with the
different orientation of coordinate systems wether it's world
coordinates or image coordinates.
Try changing miny and maxy in your rec object. Something like

double minY = rec.getMiny();
double maxY = rec.getMaxy();
rec.setMaxy(minY);
rec.setMiny(maxY);

That did the trick for me.

Subject: Mode browse works but mode map and wms server do not?
Message-ID:

You might be getting a broken link because IIS doesn't have permissions
to write to the appropriate directories. Does d:\mapserver\ have write
permissions? Can the IUSR guest account write to that directory? Is that
directory mapped properly so it can be accessed at
"http://myserver.com/mapserver/"?

As for the distortion,
It could be that you've set your extents as -179 -90 179 83 but you're
forcing your map size to be 400x300, when really it should be 400x193 if
you want to keep xy aspect correct. I haven't tested this but this is
what I suspect might be happening.

Problem:
Mapserver 4.6 on IIS 6 (Windows 2003 Server)works in browse mode but
when I need it to stream png files, either in mode=map or as a wms

Hi Philippe,

What problems are you having exactly? More details about your system and
whatever error messages are produced will enable people to help you more.
Here's a couple of things I've found.

Go to rpmfind.net and do a search for mapserver. The
latest version found is 4.2, slightly outdated but good to play around with.

Also there's http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/unix-install-howto.html if you
fancy compiling it yourself.

Hope these helps.

Cheers,
Xin

Subject: mapscript, php, fedora core 4 problem
Message-ID:

Hi,

I moved one of our servers from Fedora Core (FC) 2 to FC4 yesterday. I
re-did everything I had done before with the old system to get
mapserver/php_mapscript installed and working. I grab a new source
tarball, configured it like:

./configure --with-php=/usr/include/php --with-ogr=/usr/bin/gdal-config
--with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config --with-geos=/usr/bin/geos-config --
with-proj

and then compiled with make. I moved mapserv and php_mapscript.so to the
required places and convinced php to load the .so, and then convinced
apache to send .phpms files via the php cgi by adding some directive to
httpd.conf pointing these files at cgi-bin/php.sh, which is:

#!/bin/bash
export SCRIPT_FILENAME=$PATH_TRANSLATED
/usr/bin/php

and it is no parsing these files. I installed the workshop demo and got
it working. I then turned my attention to an existing .phpms file (a php
page to draw a simple map and add some points from a MySQL database)
that used to work just fine under FC2.

When I view this page in my browser I get a 500 error. In the error_log
I see:

Premature end of script headers: php.sh

Which I believe is a problem with my script, so I check this by sending
it directly to the php cli - resulting in this error stream:

PHP Notice: Undefined index: tool in - on line 87
PHP Warning: [MapServer Error]: msSaveImageGD(): Unable to open file /var/www/html/maps/tmp/112549634051221.gif for writing
in - on line 106
PHP Fatal error: Failed writing image to /var/www/html/maps/tmp/112549634051221.gif in - on line 106

The directory that it is trying to open and save to/from is writeable by
the httpd daemon as evidence by the workshop demo working correctly - I
set the directory to be the same for both applications.

I'm surprised by the .gif production, before I got png files - which I
prefer - is this the cause of my problems?

If anyone can offer any suggestions as to how to proceed?

Ps: for other FC4 users, I did not experience any of the SELinux related
problems posted earlier in the month using the latest
selinux_policy_targeted update.

All the best,

Gavin

Subject: mapserver use of epsg
Message-ID:

Hi,

I am trying to use the mapserver Flash Maps extension, and have managed
to compile and link everything (I think.). But when running the demo, i
get the following error:

msProcessProjection(): Projection library error. no system list, errno: 2

which I assume is because it cannot find the projection data. I have
proj-4.4.9. Where does the epsg file belong? The projection that the
map file is asking for is in the epsg file. I wandered through the
mapserver reference manual, and several other documents, but could not
find the answer. Just to try something, I put a copy in the directory
with the map file, but no joy. Perhaps some environment variable?

Thank you for any help.

You can also set this variable in the mapfile, with the MAP object's

Message-ID:

Hello Armin,
I also have the same problem.
You could send the code to me to highlight entities after having made a
query to select entities
Thanks in advanced

Leo

Rob,

the easiest way would be using the querymap function like
...
// Execute a query (here an attribute query)
$queryString =3D3D "('[subdivname]' =3D3D '$sSubDivsion')";
$your_layer->queryByAttributes('subdivname', $queryString, MS_MULTIPLE);

// Draw map
$mapImg =3D3D $map->drawQuery(); // instead of $map->draw()
...

You can specify colors for highlighting in a QUERYMAP tag in the map =3D
file.

Subject: unknown elliptical parameter name
Message-ID:

Hello everyone,

I have a map with a projection defined in the map file as:

PROJECTION
"proj=lcc"
"lat_1=43.83"
"lat_2=59.17"
"lon_0=-74"
"ellps=clrk66"
END

The map displays fine in the browser.

I am writing some code in which I am trying to reproject a point from the
map's projection to lat long. But, in trying to instantiate a new
ProjectionObj to act as input I get the following error:

Fatal error: [MapServer Error]: msProcessProjection(): unknown elliptical
parameter name

The code is:

$szMapProj = $oMap->getProjection();
// at this point, $szMapProj contains this string:
// +proj=lcc +lat_1=43.83 +lat_2=59.17 +lon_0=-74 +ellps=clrk66
$oProjIn = ms_newprojectionobj($szMapProj);

Anyone know what's wrong with 'clrk66'? I think I've seen it used in
examples, but could be wrong there. And, as it's apparently incorrect,
where I can find a list of the the correct identifiers?

cheers,
jtm

Message-ID:

Hi Thip,
I recommend filling out your SQL statement much more, and using the
'intersection' within a sub-query.
Here's an example that uses the 'crosses' test, it returns the features of
a polygon table that cross the features of a line table. For my website, it
is the data source of a layer that shows forest fire polygons that cross a
pipeline, tested on the fly - requiring no pre-processing when new forest
fires are added to the dataset.
You could modify it for use with 'intersection'. My example checks for an
overlap of the bounding boxes of the features before doing the exact
'crosses' test, which speeds up the analysis tremendously.
DATA "the_geom FROM (SELECT layer1.* FROM layer1, layer2 WHERE
layer1.the_geom && layer2.the_geom AND CROSSES(layer1.the_geom,
layer2.the_geom) AS foo USING UNIQUE gid USING SRID=26910"

There should be many emails on this in the archives.

Basically, PostGIS is supported well, MySQL spatial extensions are not
supported, only a thing called MyGIS which stores the geometries in a WKB
or WKT field in MySQL.

Mostly for point data (because of performance), OGR's Virtual Spatial Data
could be used for MySQL (X and Y column in the database table).

Hope this helps.

Try setting your IMAGETYPE to PNG24 or JPEG. Default PNG output is 8-bit so

Subject: php mapscript isn't processing query templates correctly
Message-ID:

Hi,

We are in the process of upgrading everything on our server, and so I
just upgraded to MapServer 4.6.1 and am trying to get my old PHP
MapScript code to run correctly. Unfortunately, the
processquerytemplate method doesn't seem to be working right. It works
fine if there is no substitution in the template, but as soon as I try
to use any sort of substitution (any of the special substitution strings
documented or an item in the attribute table) then PHP dies. Nothing
shows up in the PHP error log, although I do get an "exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)" notice in the Apache error log.

The processlegendtemplate method seems to work fine with substitution.
And my query templates work fine if I use CGI MapServer.

I'm using MapServer 4.6.1 and PHP 4.4.0 on Solaris 10.

Thanks,
Chris

Subject: Legends not updating?
Message-ID:

Hello all,

Grief once again with my legends.

The symptom is that, if the Layer status in the .MAP file is set to OFF,
the layer doesn't show up ... if set to ON, it shows up. This behavior
so far is normal.

However, when checking/unchecking layers from the LegendTemplate widget,
then clicking Update, the page refreshes, and all layers listed in the
LegendTemplate become unchecked!

I've gone through the documentation numerous times, and I am unable to
find anything that might be wrong with the code. I've also used the
sample legend template HTML code, which results in much the same
behavior. Not sure where to look at this point. Going to give it a go
again tomorrow.

I've included the legend_template.html and widget code below.

Any insight is appreciated!

Best regards,
- Peter

Hi all,

Compiling ms 4.6.1 Perl mapscript on freeBSD reports

I have no idea if this a problem or not. Guess I will find out if it
crashes while running, but I'm not sure even what to test.

It's been awhile since I've thought about this (so take the advice with some salt), but my approach to the checkbox portion of html legends has been more along these lines:

HTH,

Subject: WMS / PNG Problem?
Message-ID:

All of my local data is displayed without a hitch, however when I start to add WMS data I get this error:

msHTTPExecuteRequests(): HTTP request error. Can't open output file c:\temp\ms_tmp\??1.img.tmp.

--

Occassionally when I try just to display JUST the mode=map it will "occassionally" display correctly, however, most of the time I get the below error.

msDrawMap(): WMS connection error. Failed to draw WMS layer named 'bathymetry'. This most likely happened because the remote WMS server returned an invalid image, and XML exception or another unexpected result in response to the GetMap request. Also check and make sure that the layer's connection URL is valid.
msDrawRaster(): Image handling error. Unrecognized or unsupported image format
drawEPP(): Image handling error. EPPL7 support is not available.

Any help?

Cheers,
Phil

Subject: installation woes - 256 character limit
Message-ID:

Hi,

I'm trying to configure mapserver on solaris (via ssh
to a remote machine). Anyway, I'm unable to add more
parameters to the configure string after 256
characters on the command line. I also tried making a
text file and piping it the input, but that didn't
help either. Anyone have any suggestions?
