Hi Nico<br><br>I have done the same thing. Using OSM data as a base layer (in a DB) and then have added extra layers to the mapserver-utils mapfile. It worked fine for me.<br><br>I got had trouble at one point as I was not using the PROJECTION tag in the layer. This fixed the issue for me.<br>
<br>Can I suggest you start with a very simple layer to just get it started, then build it up from there. If you copy and paste a large lot in I have found it easy to get lost and hard to find/fix any issues.<br>You can refer to many different map data sources as you need.<br>

Hi everybody.<br>
<br>
After quite a long time I am back using mapserver. Seeing how well it is cabable of rendering OSM data I would like to use it as a background for the geographical information I would like to display. I followed the nice howto and now my new Mapserver setup is ready to display a local stored portion of Openstreetmap OR my own data, not both :-)<br>
<br>
The problem, as far as I know, is that I cannot successfully merge the mapfile I created for my data and the one automatically generated by the mapserver-utils mapfile generator; if I try to paste the LAYER part containing my data, it is apparently ignored (and not even wrongly projected, as far as I can see). Is there any caveat I can be aware of or, better, is there some other doc explaining the use of OSM data with other layers?<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance and sorry for my poor English<br><font color="#888888">

Ciao<br>
Nico<br>
