[Mapserver-users] Compiling PHP_MapScript.dl...

[Mike Leahy]

Assefa,

I really appreciate your help.

Unfortunately, I've got a new problem...it seems the functions in the
php_mapscript_41.dll supplied with the binaries you just posted are
different.  When I use that dll, I get the following error in my mapviewer
web page:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: ms_getversion() in
D:\educal\www\mapviewer\globprefs.php on line 147

The old dll I have works okay, but I want to avoid using binaries from
different compilations if I can.  Is this function named differently now, or
is it gone altogether?  Perhaps there is a new function reference for
mapscript that I should look at...

Thanks,
Mike

I was under the impression that I did include Postgis but I was wrong. I 
have updated the download site on maptools with new binaries that 
include Postgis. Note that I have never been able to nativly 
postgrs/postgis on windows and I am still using old binaried posted on 
the list several months ago.
