[Mapserver-users] installing sde support under linux

[Rainer Spittel]

Hi all,

    I am confused.

    I am trying to install a Mapserver for two weeks and got lot of 
problems. I solved nearly all of them, except the connection to the 
arcSDE gateway. I am using Linux SUSE 8.0, Mapserver V3.6.5, Apache 
1.3.27, and PHP 4.2.3. The ArcSDE gateway is running on a different 
computer (MS-Win2000). The Mapserver can get access to ESRI Shapefiles 
and a local PostGIS database. Now I have some problems to compile the 
the mapserver with ArcSDE support. I use the following configuration 
file parameters:

./configure --with-proj --with-ogr --with-gdal 
--with-postgis=/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_config --with-wmsclient 
--with-tiff --with-jpeg --with-php=/downloads/services/php-4.2.3 
--with-freetype=/usr/include/freetype2 --with-sde --with-sde-version=8.1

My Mapserver currently provide following formats:

    MapScript Version ($Revision: 1.104.2.8 $ $Date: 2003/03/05 03:36:53 $)
    MapServer version 3.6.5 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG 
OUTPUT=WBMP SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=TTF SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER 
SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT INPUT=TIFF INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=JPEG INPUT=POSTGIS 
INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE


My questions are:
    - where do I get these ESRI client libraries? I have the ArcSDE V8.1 
here and doesn't find them on the CD. :-(

    - what else do I have to do to get access to the SDE?
