[Featureserver] First steps

[Lehtonen, Mika]

Hi again,

I am still trying to take my first step with FeatureServer. I built OGR 
with Python bindings and it seemed to be succesfull (gdal 1.5.3) but,
now I get this:
An error occurred: libgdal.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such 
file or directory File 
"/var/digikartta.net/cgi-bin/featureserver-1.12/FeatureServer/Server.py", 
line 264, in cgiHandler service = Server.load(*cfgfiles) File 
"/var/digikartta.net/cgi-bin/featureserver-1.12/FeatureServer/Server.py", 
line 69, in _load config, section, 'DataSource') File 
"/var/digikartta.net/cgi-bin/featureserver-1.12/FeatureServer/Server.py", 
line 43, in _loadFromSection module = __import__("%s.%s" % (module_type, 
type), globals(), locals(), type) File 
"/var/digikartta.net/cgi-bin/featureserver-1.12/FeatureServer/DataSource/OGR.py", 
line 14, in <module> import ogr File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ogr.py", line 2, in <module> 
from osgeo.gdal import deprecation_warn File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/osgeo/gdal.py", line 7, in 
<module> import _gdal

What's wrong with my configuration. Any ideas? Should I have used some 
other options also when building than '--with-python'?
