[mapserver-users] Ignoring top level settings<BR><BR></DIV></FONT></FONT>
<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello list,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>It seems as though my top level settings in my
mapfile are being ignored. No matter what I put as projection, the output
doesn’t change (unless it's an invalid projection). Changing the values of
EXTENT doesn't change anything either, as my map always starts zoomed out very
far. I also have not been able to make my base layer output as anything other
than jpg.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a feeling that this is related to an invalid
/tmp/ location in the mapfile. I have not been able to write the location of
the /tmp/ folder (it's on the root of my c: drive) in a way that mapserver
will use it.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Apart from these things, everything works fine.
I've been able to sort of counter-act the projection ignoring by telling
mapserver that the layer's projection has</FONT> <FONT face="Courier New"
size=2>lat_0=-49 when in fact, it is in epsg:43204 meaning
lat_0=49</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've attached my mapfile.</FONT> </P>
