MAPSERVER vs. DEEGREE / LibTiff librar y problems

[Edward Nuttall]

Hi all

Sorry if I've ruffled a few feathers, I've been cocooned on a greenfield
Java project for the last 3 years so I'm somewhat brainwashed with J2EE :o)
I have moved onto a project which was prototyped on Deegree and have been
asked to find out if this is a suitable platform and judging by the books I
have bought it seems MapServer is the tool of choice in GIS (an area I have
only been in for a few weeks) so I just wondered if there were any critical
differences before I started to evaluate. When I referred to C and CGI as
legacy, this was a poor choice of words and I certainly wasn't trying to
make any kind of statement. Thanks for all your input otherwise, as yet I
don't have full project requirements which most people are querying so I'll
keep you posted.

On a probably more basic issue, I am having the following trouble running
mapserv.


Libtiff not found error:

Following a successful compile I cannot run mapserv due to the following
error

./mapserv: error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.3: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Running ldd on mapserv brings up:

The path to libtiff.3 is /usr/local/lib which exists in my /etc/ld.so.conf
file and all the other libraries here have been found. I've seen other
posts describing errors arising  multiple libtiff's but I can't find any
others on my system? Many thanks for any help

Cheers
