<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hi,<br>I am a newbie and have installed Mapserver 5.2.1 on OS X Server 10.5. I have been able to display maps that I exported from QGIS and though some problems are displaying the maps.<br><br>Now the next step is to get a framework around the maps and I have tried MapScript but I donīt have PHP CGI on the server :-(<br>I also have tried GeoServer which I really donīt understand because I have downloaded the GeoServer.app and when I run it I have no idea how to configure it since all the docs talk about using the "war" file but I canīt find anything about using the GeoServer.app. I also am trying OpenLayers with a little success.<br><br>I would be glad for any tips as to where I should go from here. I have installed postgreSQL and POSTGIS and my goal is to write mapdata to postgreSQL and display maps for that source. I also want to be able to enter data into the maps i.ex. click a point in the map and enter location data for that coordinate that is written to database so it is displayed later.<br><br>I am glad for any ideas for a newbie :-)<br><br>/asle<div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#666666" face="Verdana" size="2"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 10px;"><br></span></font></div></div></span> </div><br></body></html>
