[mapserver-users] map file paths

[David Hildebrand]

Is there a way of abbreviating pathnames to the map file?  For instance,
my URL to produce a map is

 

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=//fileserver/PDP/Program_Dev/DH
ildebrand/geoprocessing_server/MapServer/sample.map&mode=map

 

In my apache configuration file I have
//fileserver/PDP/Program_Dev/DHildebrand/geoprocessing_server/ aliased
to /test/ but the alias does not seem to work with CGI.  I'm just
wondering if there is a workaround so that I don't need to specify the
whole file path in my URL.

 

Thanks.
