[Mapserver-users] Funny behavior in new 4.0.1 setup...

[Aaron Racicot]

Yes that was it... I read, but obviously not deep enough.  The good
reference page I missed on my first read was:

http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/mapserver/dl/mapserver-4.x-PHP-MAPSCRIPT-README.t
xt

This clearly shows that the constants I am having trouble with are no longer
there!  Maybe someone could link this page to the Mapscript documentation
page on MapTools.org?  The latest version of documentation posted is 3.6.3,
yet you can download 4.0.1.  

Thanks again for the help.

Aaron

Aaron, did you take a look at the 4.0 Migration Guide?  A lot changed 
between 3.x and 4.x.  Read through 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MigrationGuide .

For example,

         $image_out = $image->saveImage('test',MS_PNG,0,0,0);
     is now implemented as
         $image_out = $image->saveImage('test')

Something like that could be causing your current error.
