TILEINDEX problem

[Thomas Chesky]

I have some problem with using Tileindex in the layer def. as follows:

I have the Census 2000 School District boundary shapefiles in a directory.
I created a tile index on them with "ogrtindex ti.shp *.shp"
Then I created a test map file using TILEINDEX and it fails.
Below is the detailed list of setup and config.

* Tile index shape is created in/by:
cd /usr/local/mapdata/schooldistrict/
ogrtindex ti.shp *.shp (only shapefiles; should I do ogrtindex ti.shp * rather?)

* Shape files and tile index shape file is in:
/usr/local/mapdata/schooldistrict/

* Map file is
/usr/local/mapapp/schdist.map

MAP
        NAME SchoolDistrict
        SHAPEPATH      "/usr/local/mapdata/"
        SIZE           600 400
        IMAGETYPE      PNG24
        IMAGECOLOR     0 0 0
        LAYER
                NAME schooldistrict
                STATUS OFF
                TYPE POLYGON
                TILEINDEX /usr/local/mapdata/schooldistrict/ti.shp
                CLASS
                        COLOR 255 255 255
                        OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255
                END
                PROJECTION
                        "init=epsg:4326"
                END
        END
END

* Error Message by MapServer
Somehow it tries to find the files in /usr/local/mapapp/ and /usr/local/mapdata/
rather than in /usr/local/mapapp/schooldistrict/ . Wierd.

Any idea?

Thanks
