[mapserver-users] Cannot display raster: MapServer shows white rectangle instead of the raster.

[kreshna_iceheart at yahoo.com]

You mean the path that points to the TIFF file? The following path?
    DATA "C:\mapfiles\shp\RASTER\industri.tif"

Yup, I have checked the folder, and the path is valid.


The IMAGEPATH is as follows, by the way:
    IMAGEPATH '../../ms4w/Apache/htdocs/temp/'

I think the IMAGEPATH is valid as well, because temporary JPG files are indeed created in the folder (they're all white rectangles though).

It seems the paths are quite correct though, because I have created mapfiles with vector-only (SHPs) in the past, and they're all displayed without problems. It is the raster that problematic.

Or do I miss something?

Thanks,
-Kresh
