[mapserver-users] RE: Documentation for serving large raster images using tile cache.

[Roger André]

Hi Asif,

Are you able to view a map when you go to "
http://localhost:9090/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/path/to/itasca.map&mode=map"
?  Also, can you send a copy of your mapfile, and of your tilecache.cfg
files?
