[Mapserver-users] Using OGR with tab files

[Phil Maskell]

Thanks for this, I tried it, still no joy.

Being new to MapServer, do you think this has anything to do with my
projection settings? The tabs are using "British National Grid". 

I use the following:

PROJECTION
  "init=epsg:27700"
END

I have the line "FORCE TRUE" in my LAYER declaration for a POINT type
layer.

Hi,

I have set MapServer 4.0 up with the demo, I have used OGR to load a
POLYGON type layer from a tab, but cannot get it to work with LINE or
POINT.

This is a sample of the layer in my map file:

# This works
LAYER
	NAME Counties_region
	TYPE POLYGON
	STATUS DEFAULT
	CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
	CONNECTION "data/Counties.TAB"
	STYLEITEM "AUTO"
	CLASS
		NAME "Counties"
	END
	PROJECTION
		"AUTO"
	END
END # Layer

# This doesn't work
LAYER
	NAME Motorways
	TYPE LINE
	STATUS DEFAULT
	CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
	CONNECTION "data/Motorways.TAB"
	STYLEITEM "AUTO"
	CLASS
		NAME "Motorways"
	END
	PROJECTION
		"AUTO"
	END
END # Layer

I hope someone can explain what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks in advance
