[Geomoose-users] Wms layer showing pinkish tiles.

[Moore, Richard J]

Franz,

Try the following .map file for the map file and the subsequent lines of code for the map source and catalog.  This serves it through the mapserver wms service

Rick

# For those WMS layers that only supports geographic projection (e.g. epsg:4326)
# You can still use them by having MapServer reproject them on the fly.
# You then have the option to serve it via MapServer's WMS service or
# call it as a normal MapServer layer.
# This example cascades the OnEarth (JPL) MODIS and Landsat layers through the
# local MapServer service.

MAP
  NAME 'nasa'
  SIZE 800 650
  STATUS ON
  UNITS METERS
  IMAGETYPE JPEG
  TRANSPARENT TRUE

	INCLUDE "../../geomoose_globals.map"

	WEB
		INCLUDE "../../temp_directory.map"
	END

  PROJECTION
    'init=epsg:26915' # I believe change this your projection of your mapbook projection parameter.  The 4326 is what the global mosaic is projected in.
  END

  LAYER

    METADATA
      "wms_srs" "EPSG:4326"

      "wms_style" ""
    END #metadata

    PROJECTION
      "init=epsg:4326"
    END #projection

  END # layer

END #map


Line of code in the map-source area.  Create the above code as a nasa.map file

	<map-source name="nasawms" type="mapserver">
		<file>./data/wms/nasa.map</file> #change this per your location of the .map file
		<layer name="all"/>
	</map-source>


Line in the Catalog area---

	<layer title="NASA Globe" src="nasawms/all" status="off"/>

Franz,
I pasted your mapbook settings into mine - red tiles resulting.

When changing the projection to *projection="EPSG:4326"* it works well.

I think in the mapbook you have to define the projection in which the 
WMS is available. GeoMoose takes care of reprojecting this on the fly 
into the one you use for your application.

Nils
