[mapserver-users] Does anybody use Mapserver and Tomcat on Wi n2000??

[Erik Van der Goot]

Hi Luca,

thanks for the reply.
Yes, the CGI is configured fine, I can see that I am actually talking to 
mapserv.exe when it produces the GIFs. The problem is that it does not talk 
back to me.

For your information, I have configured the CGI servlet  as a part of my 
web application and this works ok.

Thanks again, although I still have no idea where the problem might be.
I'd like to know what mapserv is trying to do once it produces the GIFs in 
the temp directory. That way perhaps I can find out what the problem is.

Erik
