Hi List,

I'm sure this problem's been touched on before, and as far as I can see I'm doing it by the book. But it still errors.

I'm trying to dynamically display points from a MS/SQL using PHP/MapScript, and I've run into a peculiar error:

Code snippet:
while ($row = mssql_fetch_row($rs)) {
     $px = $row[1]; // Easting
     $py = $row[2]; // Northing
     fputs ($fp, "  Coordinate (utm32): ".$px." , ".$py."\r\n");
     $pt = ms_newPointObj() or die("Cannot create new point object");
     $pt->setXY($px,$py) or die("Cannot assign XY to new point object"); // adding 3rd parameter doesn't help !
...

It aborts with
    Cannot assign XY to new point object
but the previous dump statement produces a valid output:
    Coordinate (utm32): 724192.12 , 6175749.4

Is this a projection issue ? I haven't set any specifically, but all runs in UTM zone 32 North.
I'm simply at my wit's end on this.

Mapserver 3.6.3 on Win2K
