Ike,



To get the Mapserver demo working, you must at least:



1-       Have a working installation of Apache with CGI support

2-       Have a working installation of Mapserver CGI

3-       Change variables of the Map file (SHAPEPATH, TEMPLATE and WEB block particularly) according to your system

4-       Change variables of the HTML files according to your system



You can verify your Mapserver CGI installation by sending a test URL to your server (see the doc from Mapserver web site).  I recommend you take a look at this tutorial which will guide you through the installation and testing process:

Otherwise, you can use the DMSolutions Maplab product:

Thank you very much for the reply.I have downloaded the demo as u said and have followd all the necessary steps.


When I clicked on intialise the page the opened did not show the following


·         the map

·         legend

·         scale

But all other things showed up.I would like to know if there is something else that I should do to show up the above mentioned objects.

I think that image type is the problem.Hoping to hear from you.

Isaac

done as you said.
