TIFF support

[Ethan Alpert]

Does the downloaded binary have GDAL support though? GDAL input supports tiff

Hello:
Certainly the binary you downloaded from mapserver's website does not seem to have TIFF support enabled...

You might check www2.dmsolutions.ca or maptools.org/webtools/dl to see if there is a binary that has this enabled.

Compiling binaries have come long ways and it should be easy breezy now if you followed the instructions...per mapserver website and the Readme that comes with the source package...

Let me know if you need any further assistance..

Also post out to the list (the chances of getting a faster..response is better)

Cheers,
Gayathri

Hi Gayathri,

Thanks for your reply

I have dowloaded the binary from http://hypnos.cbs.umn.edu/projects/downloads/ms42pg.zip

I have no idea how to compile from source to be used on windows XP

 

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi Habib,

 

You have two options to enable tiff support,

1) By using TIFF as an independent support and recompiling mapserver- Look in makefile of mapserver to uncomment tiff options

2) By using GDAL compiled with libtiff support.

 

The mapserver binary you have got does not seem to have the libtiff enabled either way...

 

Can yougive more details as to where your downloaded the binary from?

That will help analyze this..
