[Mapserver-users] RE: Problems with 3.7 and itemquery

[David.Beard at ga.gov.au]

David,

Check the extents of your COUNTY layer against the extents in the map file (14215.43 19342.38 18468.59 16607.16). Does your COUNTY layer fall within the map extents? I have received this same error (msQueryByAttributes(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s) found, layer and area of interest do not overlap). For me, the cause of the error was incorrect map extents in the map layer.

Other things to consider:
1. You don't have FILTER and FILTERITEM in your map file.

Dave

Group,

I am having problems getting itemquery function to work with MapServ
3.7.

My Url looks like this:

http://localhost/Scripts/mapservdemo.exe?map=C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MapServI
temTest\test.map&mode=itemquerymap&qlayer=county&mapext=shapes&qitem=cty
_name&qstring=PB

And My Map File looks like this:

MAP
  NAME test
	STATUS ON
	SIZE 600 450
	EXTENT 14215.43 19342.38 18468.59 16607.16
	UNITS FEET
	SHAPEPATH "test"
	IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255

	PROJECTION
		"init=epsg:26958"
	END

  WEB
    IMAGEPATH "set in config.js"
    IMAGEURL "set in config.js"
  END

  QUERYMAP
    STATUS ON
    STYLE HILITE
    COLOR 255 255 0
  END

  LAYER
    NAME county
    DATA county
    STATUS DEFAULT
    TYPE POLYGON
    CLASS
      COLOR 212 212 212
      OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
    END
  END

END 

I get the error below:

msQueryByAttributes(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s)
found, layer and area of interest do not overlap.

The attribute table does contain the value.  

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

W. David Taylor
