[Geomoose-users] Layers still not populating

[Brent Fraser]

>From the map file below you give below, I assume your data is in UTM-15 (since there is no PROJECTION object in the LAYER) so mapserver should render it ok.  You need to ensure the following is set:

1. In your <site>_configuration.js:

    var INITIAL_VIEW = '1311606.064490,3765485.899332,1475727.003496,3868927.480976';

    var VIEWS = {
	'Jump To:' : {
		'Initial View' : '1311606.064490,3765485.899332,1475727.003496,3868927.480976'
	}
    };

    var MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM = 'UTM-15'; 

2. And possibly in your .xml

	<service title="Full Extent" type="internal" invisible="false" default="true" locked="true" command="zoomToInitialView()" icon="shared/images/toolbar/zoom_full.jpg" highlight="shared/images/toolbar/zoom_full_selected.jpg" selectable="false"/>


One thing you could try is running the mapserver command line program "shp2img" (it's in \ms4w\Apache\cgi-bin):

shp2img - all_debug 5 -m mymapfile.map -o test.png

and have a look at the messages it spits out (and the image it produces).

Best Regards,
