[Geomoose-users] can not use multiple mapbook.xml files and php services

[TC Haddad]

Hello,

I'm not sure which wiki page you are referring to but it might be out of
date. Perhaps you can share the URL and we can confirm if the contents are
current or not?

It has been some time since I tried to use multiple mapbooks (GM 2.6). But
when I did, I was successful by using the method outlined below. You can
try and see if you can get it to work with 2.7.x.

Below the instructions, I will also paste the text of the "config.php" file
that is mentioned,

good luck!

*Modification to use multiple mapbooks*



 1.    Replace php/config.php with updated version.  This file starts a PHP
session and looks at a session variable passed by the HTML to set which
settings.ini file to use.

2.     In the config folder, make copies of settings.ini and mapbook.xml
with new names and leave them in the config folder.   For example, they
could be called “internal_settings.ini” and “internal_mapbook.xml”.

3.     Make a copy of geomoose.html (the main HTML page) and re-name it,
for example “internal.php” (note the PHP extension).

4.    Open “internal.php” and add the following lines to the very top of
the file:

<?php
        session_start();

         $_SESSION['settings'] = 'internal_settings.ini';
?>

Note the value for settings is “internal_settings.ini” – this will be what
you called the file in step

 5.    Open “internal_settings.ini” and set the mapbook name to
“internal_mapbook.ini”

Give it a try.  You can also use different CSS files by specifying them in
the internal.php file.
