Hi,
I succeeded in compiling and runing MapServer demo on Win2000 with IIS 5.0.
Now I am trying to study the tutorials and get problem. When I run the
tutorial Section 1 -- Example 1 with the map file
NAME S1EX1
EXTENT -97.238976 41.619778 -82.122902 49.38562
SIZE 400 300
SHAPEPATH "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\itasca\test\tutorial35"
LAYER # States
NAME "states"
DATA states_ugl
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE POLYGON
CLASSITEM "STATE"
CLASS
NAME "Michigan"
COLOR 255 255 128
OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
END # end of class object
END # end of layer object
END # end of map file
It works fine. But when I changed the map file to
NAME S1EX1
EXTENT -97.238976 41.619778 -82.122902 49.38562
SIZE 400 300
SHAPEPATH "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\itasca\test\tutorial35"
LAYER # Roads
NAME "roads"
DATA roads_ugl
STATUS ON
TYPE LINE
CLASSITEM "ROAD"
CLASS
NAME "MichiganROAD"
COLOR 255 255 128
END # end of class object
END # end of layer object
END # end of map file
This does not work. It only shows a blank box. I downloaded roads_ugl.shp,
roads_ugl.shx and roads_ugl.dbf from
http://terrasip.gis.umn.edu/projects/tutorial35/download.html
and put them in the SHAPEPATH specified directory. I think it must be
something wrong in my map file. Could somebody kindly give me a hint?
Thanks,
William Zhang
