Hi Everybody,

I seem to have a big problem ......
I am using mapserver on Red Hat 8 Linux.
MapServer version 3.6.3 OUTPUT=3DPNG OUTPUT=3DJPEG OUTPUT=3DWBMP =
SUPPORTS=3DPROJ SUPPORTS=3DTTF SUPPORTS=3DWMS_SERVER INPUT=3DTIFF =
INPUT=3DEPPL7 INPUT=3DJPEG INPUT=3DOGR INPUT=3DGDAL INPUT=3DSHAPEFILE

I have many vector layers and some raster layers too.  At the moment my =
map file has over 100 layers in it.  My problem is that when I have =
tried adding some more layers, I get the error

msLoadMap(): Unknown identifier. Too many layers defined.=20

Now this is a problem as I need to have all these layers.  I got so many =
layers that its too many to count the exact amount.  But this is a =
problem, and my project is going to fail if I cannot find a way to get =
mapserver to support/accept more layers.   Can anyone give me an idea of =
what the maximum number of layers is, and how I can go about increasing =
the amount of layers that is supported.  I have an idea that I am going =
to have to recompile the mapserver.   Please anybody, Please Help !!

Thanks,

James.
