[Geomoose-users] Probelms with GM in Fast CGI

[Jim Klassen]

I am very confused about this....

The query and identify tools are PHP/mapscript based and separate already from if the main mapserv executable in is fast-cgi mode or not.  So either the fast-cgi mapserver isn't behaving as expected as a WMS source or something odd is going on with your configuration and PHP.

There is a print line commented out on line 180 of identify.php which shows the call from the PHP to the WMS service.  Can you uncomment that and see what the link returns?
