Hello,

I have been working onphp for the last couple of days with mapscript in =
order to write my own dynamic-layer-generating code. But I hit a hard =
rock along the way.
I am running Redhat 9.0, apache 2.0, mapserver 3.6.0, php-4.2.2-17, =
php-mapscript-3.6.0-4. All mapserver and php related stuff is installed =
through related rpms.
Php works fine both with its own info.php and mapscript's =
phpinfo_mapscript.phtml.
When I test test_draw_map.phtml, I get the following error: (which I =
believe is well known)

Fatal error: Due to thread-safety problems, php_mapscript cannot be used =
as a 'apache2filter' module. You will have to reconfigure your PHP as a =
CGI to run this version of MapScript. See =
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PHPMapScriptCGI. in =
/var/www/html/mapserver/itasca/test_draw_map.phtml on line 34

I follow the link and do whats told by adding=20

Action application/x-httpd-php /cgi-bin/php

line to httpd.conf.
Then I test the same test_draw_map.phtml, I get the error:

Warning: Unexpected character in input: ' in /usr/bin/php on line 358

Warning: Unexpected character in input: ' in /usr/bin/php on line 358

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '[' in /usr/bin/php on line 358

test_draw_map.phtml does not have 358 lines. Then I search this error on =
the web and end up with this bug page:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D73616

Then I get stuck there :(
Am I missing something here? This is about my ignarence on php, =
php/mapscript or is this a real problem?
In any case what's the way out? I am sorry if this is stated before in =
the maillist and I missed it.

Have a nice day

Thank you

Murat Isik
