[Geomoose-users] geomoose on 64 bit

Fri Nov 18 10:24:07 EST 2011

A green banner and no catalog is a classic mapbook problem.  Either the mapbook isn't getting sent to the browser via the PHP script or it is invalid.  Try looking at the getmapbook.php request in a web browser and see if it looks ok.

Also, I'm not sure what the status is with the PHP that ships with GeoMoose 2.4 with regards to MapServer 6.  I know there were some changes that were needed to make it all work together on Linux.  (GM 2.4 predates MS 6 and there are some major changes/improvements in that version that cause some incompatibilities.) GM 2.6 will expect MapServer 6.

If you want to check this, have a look at http://www.geomoose.org/howto/getmapbook.html, or simply try http://localhost/phpinfo.php

I keep deleting the ms4w directory and uninstall apache every time I reload a different version.  I would just like to know why 2.4 doesn’t seem to work with windows 7.  The 2.2 works just fine.

I didn't have to do anything special to get it up and running besides unzipping the GeoMoose and MS4W files and installing Apache using the batch file.  To check and see if MapServer is running, open your web browser and type 127.0.0.1 in the address and you should see something similar to the attached image file.

I can get the Apache server to work and the web page comes up but there is no map.  How do I check to see if mapserver is working?  That what seems to me to be the issue.  It is windows 7 with 64 bit.
