Dear Frank and norbert

Thank you for your reply. The following is some more information about
my configuration:


..>I put all of my mapserver configuration files under
</usr/src/projects> which are as follows:

postgis-0.8.2.tar.gz  tiff-v3.6.1
freetype-1.3.1  jpeg-6b    mapserver-4.2.0   PaxHeaders.13119
proj-4.4.8            tutorial.zip

..>After installing all of the above individually using ./configure and
make I typed the following command in mapserver:

./configure --with-freetype --with-zlib --with-png --with-jpeg
--with-gd=/usr/local --with-proj --with-gdal --with-tiff

(after some modifications). So far I'm not able to get the projection to
work neither the GDAL. I have installed the packages for GDAL and Proj4
and then included then in the configuration of the mapserver using
<--with-gdal --with-proj>. When I test the proj4 and gdal packages
seperately they seem to work, but from map the server they don't,
although the configuration in mapserver doesn't give any error messages.

Taha,

This report doesn't give us much to go on to help you work out the
problem.
What does "mapserv -v" report?  What does "ldd mapserv" report?  What
makes you think the projections aren't working?

Best regards,
