[mapserver-users] problem with mapserver 3.5 demo. (FWD)

[Tyler Mitchell]

Oh how familiar :)  I was just combating the same problem last night.  If
you are using the standard/latest version GD it does not support GIF files.
If you convert all the GIF files referred to in your demo.map file -> to
PNG files, it will work fine.
I've attached versions the file that I converted.  Put the images into your
symbols folder and the reference.png into the graphics folder.  Then edit
demo.map to reflect the change from GIF -> PNG, by renaming each occurence
in the file.
Steven, can you put this into the demo package - it is a very common
problem.  (These may not be the best converted versions though :)Am I right
in assuming that GD does not and will not support GIF and we should all
move to PNG?
