[mapserver-users] template URL

Hi Richard,

The template value should be a file path, rather than a URL.

Subject: [mapserver-users] template URL


Hello Mappers,

I am having trouble specifying a template URL

      template "http://www.greenwoodmap.com/Index.html"
generates the error:
      "Unable to access file. http://www.greenwoodmap.com/Index.html"

And:
      template "http://www.greenwoodmap.com/"
generates the error:
      "Web application error. Malformed template name."

I am developing and testing my project on Win2k. I get the error with both 
mapserver 3.3 and 3.5. The error is the same if I specify my development 
machine's URL, greenwoodmap.com, or microsoft.com. In 3.3 I have the 
template inside a QUERY, in 3.5 I have it inside a CLASS.

The problem may be related to Windows/IIS. Could any of the Windows/IIS 
developers tell me if they have had trouble with template URLs?

Thanks,
Rich
