[Mapserver-users] RE: mapserver/PostGIS on Macos X

[Puneet Kishor]

Bill,

Here is the state of my explorations --

I have always been able to build all the Mapserver versions I have tried
(3.4 through 3.6.4) with Perl/Mapscript support.

I have never been able to run PHP/Mapscript successfully. For the longest
time the problem was with PHP on MacOS X -- dynamically loaded libraries
were not possible. Now, with PHP 4.3.0 on, dls are possible, but I am unable
to build PHP/Mapscript (see error messages below at the end of this
message).

I have never had any problem with MySQL and Perl:DBD:mysql, so I am a happy
camper as far as that goes.

I have had no problems with PgSQL itself, but have not built PostGIS.

To others on this mailing list and using MacOS X -- if you are interested, I
would propose our own mailing list (not really a hosted mailing list, but
just a bunch of email addresses we can cc our emails to sharing our
experiences with Mapserver on MacOS X). Eventually, I would like to see a
binary build of Mapserver in the form of a double-clickable package. If
interested, please drop me an email.

Thanks.
