[Mapserver-users] Testsuite - itemquery problems

Tue Jan 14 19:32:08 PST 2003

Hi again,

What I thought would be a simple task has once again caused me problems.
I'm sure its just a silly mistake but I can't seem to find it.

I am duplicating what the itemquery case1 sample does. However, the first
map
is generated, but the second, "zoomed in" is not. It finds the data no
problem
but the image does not get generated and dumped into the image directory
/tmp
To assist here is the relevant parts -

Dump of attributes from that county:

and here's the map of the query results (you can zoom to a set of results as
well):
