<p class=MsoNormal>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m creating my first map server and I’m trying
to generate tiles for gmap from shapfiles. I have successfully gotten the
mapserver to render the shapefiles by using the following url:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><a
href="http://000.000.000.000/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=map">http://000.000.000.000/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=map</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>but when I try to use (only “mode” changes):<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><a
href="http://000.000.000.000/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=tile">http://000.000.000.000/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=tile</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I receive the error:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span class=apple-style-span><span style='color:black'>msTileSetup():
CGI error. Tile API is not available.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span class=apple-style-span><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span class=apple-style-span><span style='color:black'>I
know that I’ll need more url switches (I’ve simplified for the
example), however, I cannot find anything online concerning this error.
I’ve compiled this on SUSE linux, and the map file contains only one
simple map and layer section.</span></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you need more info, please let me know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am also wondering if I’m going about this the
correct way. I would ideally like to generate a tile cache rather than
generate per request. But I have not found a tutorial to do such
(I’m sure there’s one out there).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you much!<o:p></o:p></p>
