[Geomoose-users] GDB layer problems - Pink Screen

Tue Jun 2 13:01:38 PDT 2015

Yes, ogrinfo works.  It connects successfully and I am able to see the data.  After I verified this was working, I tested the associated .map files with shp2img.  Shp2img outputs the data to the image and I am able to see data.

Ok, that was just a guess :)

Do you happen to know if your version of gdal/ogr has the  FileGDB API library installed?

That is listed as a requirement on the OGR supported vector formats page:

http://www.gdal.org/ogr_formats.html 

It sounds like if you have OGR 1.11 you *should* be ok for reading:

http://www.gdal.org/drv_filegdb.html

You could try using the command line tool "ogrinfo" to test your connection, using some of the steps outlined on this page (under the "OGRINFO Examples" section):

http://mapserver.org/input/vector/filegdb.html

That might help narrow down where your problem is originating...

It is not an ESRI annotation layer.  It is pointing to the same layer.

Just a check: 

is "lafSchools_anno" refferring to an ESRI Annotation layer? because I don't think OGR supports those types of layers.

I have tried to add layers from an ESRI geodatabase.  The following error is received: msOGRFileOpen(): OGR error. Open failed for OGR connection in layer `ESN'.  File not found or unsupported format.  I originally exported the layers to shapefiles for testing and they worked.  I have tested each map file using shp2img with success on each individual layer.  However, when loading from the mapbook.xml I received the above error.  

The gdb file is located in the same folder as the map file.

Below is the mapbook entry.
