but not TFW world files. Exporting the file as a GeoTIF would then fix
this problem, consistent with your observation. I'm not sure my memory is
correct, but the "built-in" TIFF support is now deprecated and you really should
remove it - GDAL will provide much better TIFF support for
you.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>Thanks to everyone for the feedback. </DIV><BR>
<DIV>It seems to be a problem on the image side. I don't understand why, but
although it displays nicely in ArcView and Photoshop, the screen keeps blank
with Mapserver. (I had the impression that ArcExplorer-Java for Mac didn't
display it either.) But when I exported the TIF in ERDAS as GeoTIF and loaded it
into the app it worked. </DIV><BR>

<DIV>The first thing I'd do is run "mapserv -v" on each machine and look
</DIV>
<DIV>for configuration differences in your two MapServer
installations. </DIV>
<DIV>Also, check whether both are GeoTIFFs. </DIV>

</DIV><BR>
<DIV>Hi, </DIV><BR><BR>
<DIV>gush, what a strange thing. I have to TIFFs with a worldfile each.
</DIV>
<DIV>Using PHP/MapScript, on my windows machine, both display nicely. On
</DIV>
<DIV>our Linux machine however, only one of the two displays. When I
select </DIV>
<DIV>the other, white space... Nothing. </DIV><BR><BR>
<DIV>I added one of the TIFFs only now, the other already a couple of days
</DIV>
<DIV>ago. Sure, this can't be the reason. But .... Actually, I have no
</DIV>
<DIV>idea. They are both 8 bit, and RGB color mode. </DIV><BR><BR>
<DIV>Any idea whatsoever? Thanks for letting me know. I am really stuck...
