I could read posts of Paco Regodon which show me that i wasn't alone with this
problem of raster tiff not supported.
(see the post below)
if you've got some minutes to help me please see:
http://www.esm2.imt-mrs.fr/~sdubois/sig/sig.html
In this page i've sum up my install parameters and main problem about
displaying geotiff.
Have you found or have someone else an answer?
I download tiff2png but without success
the output is:
[root at sx-dubois data]# /tiff2png 26-20k/gr_20k_montelimar_v1.tif
26-20k/gr_20k_montelimar_v1.tif: Warning, unknown field with tag 33550 (0x830e)
ignored.
26-20k/gr_20k_montelimar_v1.tif: Warning, unknown field with tag 33922 (0x8482)
ignored.
Thanks in advance

Hello Frank,
no luck. :-(
I have tryed changing utm "zone=29" on the map and "zone=30" on the layer
without success. Also, i changed IMAGETYPE from PNG to PNG24, and i have
discovered that transparency information is being lost, as i am getting now
an ugly green background.
Also there is an speed penalty because of the extra reprojection time.
I have tryed renaming ".tif" to ".png", but it didn't work. He.
I allways get an Internal Server Error if i try to use tiff raster layers.
I am now using tiff2png to batch-convert all my tiffs to PNG, and it works
perfectly.
