[mapserver-users] MapServer 5.2 Beta 2 Available

[Steve Lime]

Tony/all: This has been fixed in the main trunk. I had mucked up parameter order in calls
to a generalized image generation function. This effectively broke mode=BROWSE applications. 
Testing of other functions in beta 2 would still be helpful! Beta3 will be out on Wed.

Appreciate the report!

Steve

I've tried both 5.2.0-beta1 and 5.2.0-beta2 and have the same problem -
everything works fine except no map image is generated. Ref map and
scale bar images are generated fine - just the main map image never
appears. Same map file works fine with 5.0.3. Details of config / system
are as follow :

OS : Fedora 9
Arch : same result on I386 and X86_64
Config options : --with-ogr --with-gdal --with-agg --with-freetype
--with-proj
Method of use : cgi
Image format : png

Nothing unusual reported in mapserver log file, httpd logs or selinux
logs.

shp2img generates the map image from the map file without any problems.
Its also not a path reference problem - the map image never appears in
the tmp directory but both the ref map and scale bar images do.

Regards
Tony
