[Mapserver-users] I'm getting a little frustrated...

[Paul VanDyke]

Ok, here's the deal...  I'm new to GIS, so I could be the entire
problem, but I'm not sure, you tell me.

I've downloaded and install mapserver 4.0.1 precompiled binaries from
the mapserver homepage (ms401_png_pg.zip).  I've even been sucessful in
building a few maps based on shape files using our own data.  Here are
some examples: http://209.165.152.73.  However, I cannot get raster
images to work to save my life...  I've got a few rasters of my own that
I've been working with that I've tried with no luck.  I've also taken
the raster image that was included with the tutorial and tried to get it
working.  Everytime it draws a picture without the raster data.  Even
when the raster layer is the only layer, it still draws the picture,
without anything.

Where do I need to go now?  Should I try the same things on linux?  I'm
very familiar w/ the linux platform, but my company wants to keep
everything on Windows.  I'm running this on a Windows 2000 Server using
Apache 2.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Even if you just tell me that
you have a similar environment and it works.

Thanks,
