Michael –

Does the map file/request work = correctly if you do NOT create PDF output? That is, if you create a PNG or = JPEG image, for example?

Hi = List,

I was trying = to create a pdf using the outputformat tag, everything’s working fine until I = try to include an annotation layer… As long as i use polygon, line and = point layers a pdf is created.

Maybe you can help me find the problem if there is one. =

Thanks in = advance

In my case, the PHP used its own internal libs and mapserver used the system libs which resulted in crashing. But I think this was specific to php_mapscript. Currently ./configure does not detect this and prevent you from building a bad configuration. For details see http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=370 If this turns out to be your problem also please make a note in this bug so we can track how big this problem is for other people.

There are downloadable versions for 4.0, 3.6 and so on , therefore I decided to start with the last one (4.0) and test it in the my winXP system with apache. I also installed the mapserver-4.0-win32-php4.3.2 distribution, I updated the php to from 4.3.1 to 4.3.3 (probaby not necessary) and then I tried also to test the installation with the phpinfo and dl the php mapscript dll. Of course i also updated the httpd.conf to point at the new php directory and the php.ini under the windows directory to point at the new extension dir containing the dll. I got the error message unable to load the dll though it was there in the proper directory, so i tried to change the php version to 4.3.2 without any positive change. Only renouncing to the php_mapserver:40.dll library solved the problem and therefore I had to use the _36.dll library to make it work. I also had to install the _36 version of the gmap demo cause only changing the name of the library in the gmap75.phtml file was not enough to make it work. Now it all work with mapserver 4 but the mapscript and gmap 3.6 version. Does anybody have an idea of what i did wrong? thanx in advance Giorgio Plazzotta From dlowther at ou.edu Tue Sep 2 06:06:53 2003 From: dlowther at ou.edu (Lowther, David W) Date: Tue, 2 Sep 2003 08:06:53 -0500 Subject: [Mapserver-users] Zoom In to a defined area Message-ID: Jeff, Make a function for the onchange event of your combo box, grab the selected value, and write it to the mapext input element of your form.

I'm hoping someone can tell me what changed in mapserver, and why it worked. In my older version of the mapfile that was used with Mapserver 3.6, I relied on default tolerances and thus did not list them in my map file. This file wouldn't work with mapserver 4.0. That is...it wouldn't query. The new mapfile works because I added tolerance and toleranceunits to my mapfile for my queryable layer. The tolerance could not be zero, else the same error would result. It was my understanding (from the docs) that the default tolerance was 3 pixels. Has it changed to zero? Does anyone know why SDE layers don't like a tolerance of 0? Cheers, Liz >>> "Liz Godwin" 08/28/03 03:00PM >>> Hello, I'm trying to upgrade a simple application to the new version of Mapserver (4.0) and I am running into an error I haven't seen before, and haven't been able to sort out.

Click on the initialize button to fire up the demo with 3 layers turned on will be accessible for browsing. The data are of Itasca County, MN and were derived, for the most part, from USGS 1:24,000 quadrangles. Some things to note are:

A couple of days ago, some developers who are writing an application in PHP/Mapscript (3.6.6) on our server told me that after they returned from vacation they discovered that labels in their application no longer display umlauts. It had worked fine when they went to vacation. The only thing I had done with the server while they were away was upgrading PHP from 4.2.3 to 4.3.3. I didn't rebuild the php_mapscript.so module at that time, since in brief (too brief I guess) testing the application "seemed" unaffected by the PHP upgrade. The first thing I tried was rebuilding PHP/Mapscript but that didn't help. What did help was rebuilding PHP using external GD library. As you may know, PHP includes its own "bundled" GD library, but it can also use external GD. My server is running FreeBSD and it seems that when building PHP from FreeBSD ports the build process now chooses to use bundled GD, whereas earlier it used external GD. Hence my problem (and the workaround). OK, so I got it working now, but I'm sure it will bite me again next time I upgrade PHP. I would like to find a more permanent fix. If someone is using PHP/Mapscript 3.6.6 and PHP 4.3.x with bundled GD library, are you able to display umlauts in labels? Just trying to make sure if the problem is in my server or somewhere else. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas at raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * Kindred: Fear that relatives are coming to stay.

Notice: Use of undefined constant MS_SWF - assumed 'MS_SWF' in

this will have the same notice no matter what type of file i try to

directory that i specified to use in my map file).  any idea what may

causing this?

Ann, Things that may be different now: o The way paths to data files are resolved is different in subtle ways. Try an absolute path, or relative to SHAPEPATH or relative to the map. o World file handling may be slightly different. Does gdalinfo report proper georeferencing for the file in question? Georeferencing that makes sense relative to the map area? o Offsite handling is different, you may need OFFSITE r g b to get proper offsite handling.

I think you be able to use the Flash driver as a start point Actually there already is an (untested and just as undocumented) DXF OUTPUTFORMAT, not for the faint at heart. You can try it out if you have a v4 mapserver or newer cvs code. Do everything as usual, just drop the following in your mapfile to generate dxf-s instead of images: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME imagemap MIMETYPE "text/plain" DRIVER imagemap EXTENSION dxf FORMATOPTION DXF=ON END From nf10 at hotmail.com Wed Sep 3 05:34:04 2003 From: nf10 at hotmail.com (Jeff L.)

If you build php_mapscript using the system GD and build PHP using the bundled GD, then at runtime when you load php_mapscript.so inside PHP you end up pulling two copies of slightly different versions of GD into the same process, and this is very bad. You really have to make sure that both MapScript and PHP are built using the exact same version of GD. Perhaps you could try compiling Mapserver/mapscript using PHP's bundled GD library, we never tried it, but that would be another way to ensure that both mapscript and PHP use the same version of GD.

R. Piepul's suggestion to use gmake was correct. I guess FreeBSD doesn't come with gmake, so you need to download GNU make, configure and compile it. What got me is that it wasn't the default make: you have to use '/usr/local/bin/make' instead of 'make' (at least, that's how I did it). Good luck.

As you wrote with mapscript 3.6.5 and 3.6.5 it was possible to compile after a few changes within mapscript Makefile: Change: CC= cc to CC= gcc LD= cc -Wl -Wl, to LD= gcc -Wl -Wl,-share and -I$(PHP_SRC_DIR)/dl to -I$(PHP_SRC_DIR)/ext This does not work anymore!!

Both files are definitely within the source tree of php, given within the mapserver configure option --with-php=PATH-TO-SOURCE-TREE. What I really do not understand is, why the file maperror.h cannot be found. It is within the source tree of mapserver 4.0 I'm actually building?! Additionally I do not understand the last line of the error code, as there is no #Include "maperror.h" within php_mapscript_util.h. I found that in php_mapscript_util.c on line 101. Perhaps the code is making use of a variable or something like that, which isn't provide on FreeBSD? Well, I don't know how all that works!

For example, to extract features from a layer your selection extent cannot be larger than the extent of the layer so you're forced to clip the extent. A tolerance of zero results in a rectangle that's actually a point xmin=max and so on and I imagine SDE is puking on that. I don't have the code in front of me but I suspect that the tolerance may be type specific. So for polygon layers the tolerance is 0, and for lines an points it's something else. I'd have to check in mapfile.c to be sure.

I'm hoping someone can tell me what changed in mapserver, and why it worked. In my older version of the mapfile that was used with Mapserver 3.6, I relied on default tolerances and thus did not list them in my map file. This file wouldn't work with mapserver 4.0. That is...it wouldn't query. The new mapfile works because I added tolerance and toleranceunits to my mapfile for my queryable layer. The tolerance could not be zero, else the same error would result. It was my understanding (from the docs) that the default tolerance was 3 pixels. Has it changed to zero? Does anyone know why SDE layers don't like a tolerance of 0? Cheers, Liz >>> "Liz Godwin" 08/28/03 03:00PM >>> Hello, I'm trying to upgrade a simple application to the new version of Mapserver (4.0) and I am running into an error I haven't seen before, and haven't been able to sort out. "msSDELayerWhichShapes(): SDE error. SE_shape_generate_rectangle(): The number of points is less than required for feature. (-148)" I get the same error with or without my template file. My mapfile is referencing only SDE layers. The error only occurs when I am trying to query a layer, not when I'm just navigating around the map. The application queries fine if I point to Mapserver 3.6 instead. Has anyone had any luck in upgrading sites using SDE that might have a clue into where I should poke? Thanks!!

But the 8.1.x windows ODBC drivers for instance connect fine to a 9.x instance.

The *.lyr is no more than a "small project", storitng the datapath and some more like legend, etc. If I may give you an advice: Of course Esri will hurry up people to switch to 8.2 - because there's a lot moorem oney to make, at least with the update-service you HAVE to pay every year, otherwise you don't get any updates - and you have to pay them after, if you missed pay it for a year or two and then want to update. My experience in this case is, that most people remain using AV3.x - some of our customers change one or two licences and keep the rest as it is, because ArcGIS 8.x for most users is abssolutely overloadad with functionality....

You could write your own DXF function. Basics of DXF files aren't too complicated, it's just a text file (with the good datas !-) I've written a code that write DXF files with lines and arc, it's quite simple, you just have to know the coordonates of your shapes. Points and polygon should not be harder. I don't know yet about text and images. But the export of point, line and polygone to dxf is very simple. To understand DXF files, find a good doc, but, better, download QCad (a free light Autocad) and generate some simple DXF files (1 point, 1 line,...) and then see the changes by editing the DXF files. bye Blaise ********** L'ADSL A 20 EUR/MOIS********** Avec Tiscali, l'ADSL est ? 20 EUR/mois.

I have a couple clients who have expressed some interest, so there might be work on this in coming months but nothing is certain. One issue with doing this is that DWG and DXF files are "graphically rich". Getting the line work out and accessable in MapServer wouldn't be too hard. Getting a DWG file to look the same when rendered in MapServer as it looks in AutoCAD is worlds harder. With the DGN format some graphical information was captured and passed through to MapServer and with STYLEITEM AUTO you would get something that look similar to what the picture looked like in Microstation. I would imagine this would also be done for DWG but it is important to realize that even if a moderate effort is made to support DWG it will come with many limitations and caveats.

It would be pretty easy to write a GDAL compatible .aux file describing them. I can help with that offline if you can't find enough info in the GDAL "PAux" format page. But because the data is not 8bit raster there are issues with how it will get displayed in MapServer. You can let MapServer rescale the data to 8bit on the fly, but depending on how exact you want to be you might be better off reclassifying it outside mapserver first. Note that MapServer does not currently support raster classes for raster values outside the range 0-255 even though that might be ideal for situations like this.

Stephen, FME is (in my somewhat biased opinion) an excellent translator and with a bit of work should give you all you need in DWG to shapefile translation. I would add that those with FME licenses should be able to use the FME/OGR gateway to directly read FME supported vector formats in MapServer. However, this isn't a particularly high performance approach so unless you need dynamic translation I would encourage batch translation ahead of time with FME. I would add that FME translation to shapefiles is going to result in alot of sophisticated rendering information being lost, though with effort you could capture some or all of it in Shapefile attributes.

And serving large amounts of data (we're now in the 20 TB range with MapServer) is often very misleading. At any one moment the vast majority of that data is sitting there on disk doing nothing (or at least it SHOULD be doing nothing ), so what's the difference between 100GB of idle disk and 40TB of idle disk? For serving large amounts of raster data, I think the rules are simple to state (but not always easy to follow): 1. Make sure you have resampled the imagery (if necessary) so small-scale (zoomed-out) views use a data source with input resolution. 2. Do not use compressed imagery unless you fully understand how the decompression works. 3. Do not use compression schemes that require a LOT of data to be read from disk in order to decode a small portion of the image. 4. Use good disk hardware (RAID-5) and organization. 5. Use lots of RAM so the server can both cache data and avoid swapping. 6. Tile the imagery into tiles that are of relatively modest size and use tile indexes. Do not break the tiles too small - most map requests should require only one input tile to be read. By far the most important part is to understand what's going on when the user requests a map, and cut out the parts that aren't needed! - Ed Ed McNierney President and Chief Mapmaker TopoZone.com / Maps a la carte, Inc. 73 Princeton Street, Suite 305 North Chelmsford, MA 01863 Phone: (978) 251-4242 Fax: (978) 251-1396 ed at topozone.com -----Original Message----- From: Arnulf Christl (CCGIS) [mailto:arnulf.christl at ccgis.de] Sent: Friday, September 05, 2003 4:23 AM To: Ed McNierney; mapserver-users at lists.gis.umn.edu Subject: AW: [Mapserver-users] Whole lotta shakin' going on Hi, thats great news, congratulations.

At about 9:40 PM our traffic suddenly shot up to its highest level since we made the switch to the MapServer site. This was very strange. When I investigated, I found that actually almost all the traffic was being handled by one of our eight MapServer systems. Our data is distributed geographically across these systems, and it turned out that we were getting a huge number of requests for maps of the same area. Hmmmm.... a hacker? That was my first thought, but it would need to be someone with a LOT of clear bandwidth. The log files showed the traffic was coming from a lot of different clients - an attempt at a coordinated Denial of Service attack? A bit more log-sniffing took me here: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/recenteqsUS/Quakes/nc40146208.htm There's a "topo map" link in the "Additional Information" section near the bottom. Mystery solved. Things are still quite busy, but they've cooled off a bit. I'm sure there will be a bunch of curious users in the morning, too. The one MapServer system that was taking all the heat was serving an average of 10 custom topo maps a second over a full 10 minute period. MapServer was chugging along just fine - the only "problem" was that I got one complaint from Apache that I might want to increase my MaxClients setting . - Ed Ed McNierney President and Chief Mapmaker TopoZone.com / Maps a la carte, Inc. 73 Princeton Street, Suite 305 North Chelmsford, MA 01863 Phone: (978) 251-4242 Fax: (978) 251-1396 ed at topozone.com _______________________________________________ Mapserver-users mailing list Mapserver-users at lists.gis.umn.edu http://lists.gis.umn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users From cpurvis at asg.sc.edu Fri Sep 5 13:38:33 2003 From: cpurvis at asg.sc.edu (Charlton Purvis) Date: Fri, 5 Sep 2003 16:38:33 -0400 Subject: [Mapserver-users] MapLab point query modification Message-ID: Hi, folks: I couldn't get Maplab point queries to do what I wanted. As a matter of fact, I couldn't get them to do anything right off-the-bat. So I made the following changes, and all is great. Problem was, on a single click, the first part of the if/then block that decides to execute a point or a rect query, only checks to see if $adMax[0 and 1] are numeric, i.e. do we have a max X,Y for a mouse selection box? That seems to be true in all cases, so I added a check to see if they were identical to $adMin[0 and 1]. If so, a single point has been clicked. Otherwise, they've made a rectangle. ./wrapper/drawmap.php * changed the if/then block under // execute query (line 402) to be: if ( ( is_numeric( $adMax[0] ) && is_numeric( $adMax[1] ) ) && ( $adMax[0] != $adMin[0] && $adMax[1] != $adMin[1] ) ) { $oResultSet = $oMapQuery->executeRectQuery( $adMin[0], $adMin[1],$adMax[0], $adMax[1] ); } else { $oResultSet = $oMapQuery->executePointQuery( $adMin[0], $adMin[1] ); } ./query.phtml * changed the if/then block under // execute query (line 124) to be: if ( ( is_numeric( $adMax[0] ) && is_numeric( $adMax[1] ) ) && ( $adMax[0] != $adMin[0] && $adMax[1] != $adMin[1] ) ) { $oResultSet = $oMapQuery->executeRectQuery( $adMin[0], $adMin[1],$adMax[0], $adMax[1] ); } else { $oResultSet = $oMapQuery->executePointQuery( $adMin[0], $adMin[1] ); } Maybe I had to do this because of my browser?

In Ed's own words: "Absolutely, guaranteed the fastest - no data at all. It renders in zero time on even the slowest machines!" (see http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/data2/wilma/mapserver-users/0301/msg00023.html). Words of wisdom, and I have respectfully dubbed this the "McNierney Principal". I suspect that someone at Microsoft has followed Ed's logic and applied it to the security features in Windows 2003 Server / IIS 6.0. Here's the story. Earlier this week I had the displeasure of setting up Mapserver on a Windows 2003 / IIS 6.0 server. I've setup Mapserver on IIS enough times to be confident with the process, and I had a laptop with a functioning IIS / Mapserver installation at my side. But all I could get from the Windows 2003 / IIS 6.0 server was 404 errors. To make a long story short, Server 2003 and/or IIS 6 has a new top level "Web Service Extensions node" which has all dynamic content turned off by default. (A server that servers little or nothing is secure, hence the corollary to the McNierney Principal (and I think that a computer that is turned off may be even more secure)). You can enable scripting and executables in all the usual IIS places for individual virtual directories or entire web sites, but the top level default setting for the computer will over-ride your settings for all web sites and virtual directories. And IIS Service Manager will give you no clue that that it is doing this aside from generating 404 errors.

My particular need was to access the hash of fonts through something like fonts = mapobj.fontset.getFonts() fonts ['Arial','ArialHB',...] I had this working, but then some other changes to the MapServer code broke my code, and then things got too hectic before the 4.0 release ... I ended up removing my work from the CVS. Metadata are stored in a hashTableObj, but unfortunately there seems to be problems between this code and SWIG with the result that a hashTableObj can't yet be exposed in MapScript. Ideally we want hashTableObjs with methods like keys(), has_key(), &c. Enter this as a feature request in the MapServer Bugzilla and I'll help you lobby for work on it. I think it will require a re-write of the code in maphash.c to make it SWIG compatible or require some work on the SWIG code itself. Meanwhile, I think you'll have to write some code to parse the mapfile and get the metadata keys. cheers, Sean -- Sean Gillies sgillies at frii dot com http://www.frii.com/~sgillies From vinko at cprsig.cl Sat Sep 6 20:11:32 2003 From: vinko at cprsig.cl (Vinko Vrsalovic) Date: Sat, 6 Sep 2003 23:11:32 -0400 Subject: [Mapserver-users] How to set class' color by code.

So, Microsoft is finally starting to get at least a little bit sensible about these topics; they are finally making a good decision about default configuration (forcing you to whitelist, i.e. disallowing everything and then you have to turn on what you need), and you are actually _complaining_? Now this is new. One of Microsoft biggest problems is that their default configurations are absolutely bonkers. The way you described is the way it should be done - at least in theory, since I can imagine that they screwed it somehow anyway. Apart from that, static content != no content. This is different for a CGI application like MapServer of course. And a computer is not a secure one just because it's turned off. Security is not a state, it's a process. :) > You can enable scripting and executables in all the usual IIS places for > individual virtual directories or entire web sites, but the top level > default setting for the computer will over-ride your settings for all web > sites and virtual directories. This is what a default setting is supposed to do, right? But to be honest, your sentence is confusing me a bit; do you really mean that a top-level setting is overriding every other setting all the time? That would be a bit weird. I would expect it to define ... well, a default, and then you make changes to whatever places, overriding the defaults. > And IIS Service Manager will give you no > clue that that it is doing this aside from generating 404 errors.

You gain nothing from a compression scheme that has to read the entire file to decode a small section of the image.

We are using mapserver 3.6.6 and php 4.3.2 We have run into the problem that we have fcgi enabled instead of just plain old cgi. this, the php wont work, and our needs require just cgi, not fcgi. I have already doubled checked with the install.txt file and followed the instructions on installing PHP as a CGI binary. I set the cgi.force_redirect = 1 in the php.ini file. then in the httpd.conf file i made sure that: ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe" were all set as required in the installation text. alas, this was apparantly not the problem as the information was already correct, and not the cause of the php not working. I also spent a considerable amount of the day googling my troubles and looking for documentation, similar situations for my OS/webclient, and any information I could find, but to no avail. If anyone has experienced similar problems and worked through them, or sees something obvious that I am missing I would greatly appreciate the help.

We tried everything (with or without the path) in the fonts.list file, but we still get an error message telling us Mapserver does not find the font. We used the exact same configuration in previous version of Mapserver and it did ok. Is there a known bug with fonts and version 4.0?

Looks fine. What do you mean by Mapserv won't execute. What exactly happens when you type mapserv from the command line. Or mapserv -v?

I think that the default maximum number of layer and symbol is quite small for somme application. I think that it should be incresed to 256 for each of them. I don't think it impact much on perfomance (as we tested on a linux box).

If you want to render data from a subquery as in: geom from () as foo using unique using SRID= make sure 'from' is in lowercase. and make sure everything you'll use in the layer (classitem, labelitem) is actually selected in the subquery. I'm sending this as the error messages thrown in mappostgis.c when the above conditions are not met are not very descriptive (Postgresql reports the error '') -- Vinko Vrsalovic http://www.cprsig.cl From coldwell at csptexas.com Mon Sep 8 18:18:16 2003 From: coldwell at csptexas.com (coldwell at csptexas.com) Date: Mon, 08 Sep 2003 19:18:16 -0600 Subject: [Mapserver-users] Itemquery question from a newbie Message-ID: <20030909011816.7F77F8403B@ns1.csptexas.com> Are there special requirements for a shapefile used for an itemquery? I have a polygon shapefile which in the dbf has an attribute name of ACCT_. The attribute is a unique geo_id which is a string beginning with 'R'. Though I can display this information as a LABELITEM, and with a conventional query cause the polygon to be highlighted on a querymap, an itemquery with this data returns the message msQueryByAttributes(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s) found, layer and area of interest do not overlap. The performance is similar in both Mapserver 3.6 and 4.0 with appropriate changes in the query procedure. (I of course prefer the 4.0 style.) The map files and query url seem OK, since the map file works for zooming and click queries. And with appropriate file, layer, and column name changes the map and templates work as I want them to with the Itasca demo data. But they won't work with my local data! Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
