[mapserver-users] phpmapscript with postgis

Thu Jun 19 12:58:48 EDT 2008

I am trying to develop a map application with php mapscript and postgis.  I can map my postgis data in a standard map file and the php mapscript generates a map file on a shape file.  However, when I try to generate a php mapscript map I get a blank screen.  There are no error messages but the data doesn't display.  My php file is shown below.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Sam

<?PHP

$oMap = ms_newMapObj("");

// Set size of the output map image
$oMap->setSize(256,256);

$oMap->web->set(imagepath,"/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/");
$oMap->web->set(imageurl,"/ms_tmp/");

// Set the geographic extents of the map.
$oMap->setExtent(1543790,718550,1560340,750790);

// Create a data layer and associate it with the map.
// This is the raster layer showing some cloud imagery

// Create a class object to set feature drawing styles.

// Render the map into an image object
$oMapImage = $oMap->draw();

$image_url=$oMapImage->saveWebImage();
