[mapserver-users] Fw: mapserver binary for CentOS?

Thu Sep 6 01:00:15 PDT 2012

The easy way to install Mapserver on Windows is not the IISy way :)
Use MS4W with included Apache instead http://maptools.org/ms4w/index.phtml

So, if i want not install anything on the server, i have to switch to a windows sever, i.e. IIS.
In IIS, i think there is a need to just copy mapserv.exe and some dlls. Am i right?

On CentOS there is no dll's those are windows only,
I'm not sure, just extracting the mapserv from the RPM is going to work??
you need everything else (gdal, geos, etc)
without root or sh access, I don't see how you can run or install mapserv

Thanks a world for your helpful answer
I wasn't aware that rpm could be extracted.
Anyhow, in the link provided, i.e. http://elgis.argeo.org/repos/6/elgis-release-6-6_0.noarch.rpm, i can get a 11 kb file when i download above-mentioned link. It seems there is no mapsrev file in it.
Could you guide me where can i find the whole package?
Also, just mapserv is sufficient to run a simple web mapping application? no other dll?

Thanks in advance

Extracting the executable file "mapserv" from one of the above mentioned rpms and placing it in cgi-bin should give you a working MapServer CGI installation.

Thanks for your help
I contacted host admin and he told me they don't allow ssh access because their host is of shared (!) one. I was thinking maybe there is a way to just copy the files into cgi-bin folder, as it is for mapserv.exe and its dependencies (dlls) in MS4W package.
However, it seems if i want to use MapServer in CGI mode i have to use a Windows server. Otherwise, i must switch to MapScript which is not recommended for all applications.
If there is a way to use CGI Mapserver in this case, please inform me.

Regards

Hi guys
I'm a newbie to mapserver and i've been using MS4W for a while. Now, i'm gonna use MapServer CGI in my website. So, I asked my host admin of the version of Linux and he replied me that CentOS is running on the server.
Searching internet, unfortunately, i didn't find mapserver binary for CentOS. I just found some instructions for building mapserver in Linux but i'm a windows follower and hence, not familiar with Linux.
My host provider supports CGI applications. How can i get a binary MapServer compatible with Centos?

Best Regards
