[Mapserver-users] crash using srs parameter in getmap request

[craig.gould at bt.com]

John,
I and a few others have found the same problem.
The way round it is to create a web page that is called instead of the
opengis mapserver. This page forwards the request to the mapserver but
strips out the SRS paramater. If the map server is using the projection
you want returned by default, then everything ends up OK.
BTW this only happens with certain projection types.
Regards,
Craig.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] crash using srs parameter in getmap request


Hi List

Using a map file with projection settings as shown below, I get a crash
of mapserver when doing an opengis getmap request with &srs=epsg:28992.
With an absent srs parameter or with &srs=epsg:4326 a correct map is
returned. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

BTW: I am using MapServer version 4.2-beta2 on W2K, with the PROJ_LIB
environment variable set to the directory containing the epsg file.


Regards,
John Pulles.
