[Geomoose-users] shape file to database

[Dan Little]

GeoMOOSE will work with any dataset mapserver can process.

Here's the mapserver documentation on the use of PostGIS/PostgreSQL:
    http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/vector_data/postgis/?searchterm=postgis

Can you verify that the geometry column is named "the_geom"? Typically tools will name the column "wkb_geometry".

Subject: [Geomoose-users] shape file to database

 
I am trying to exclude .shp files and to have database connectivity instead. For that I converted the shape files to .sql using shp2pgsql.exe as it is a tool given by PostgreSQL. After this in the map files I provided the connection as
 
      CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
      CONNECTION "host=localhost dbname=Database_name user=postgres password=Password port=5432"
                DATA "the_geom from county"
 
But after this a few layers are able to load and rest not. Even at certain zoom levels other layers breaks. 
I want to know that is there anything else to done for the same or GeoMOOSE application is only valid for file based system not for database.
 
 
Thanks & Regards,
