Installing Java MapScript on Windows

[Bas Vanmeulebrouk]

Hi list,

I am trying to install Java MapScript on a Windows XP Professional machine.
I have downloaded a binary from http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/.
When I try to load the MapScript dll in my Java class, it causes the
following error: The procedure entry point CPLGetLastErrorMsg could not be
located in the dynamic link library gdal12.dll and then Exception in thread
"main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\Program
Files\MapServer\JavaMapScript\mapscript.dll: The specified procedure could
not be found.
 
I assume mapscript.dll can't find the additional dll's like gdal12.dll. I am
positive there is only one instance of these dll's on my machine. I have
tried to set the PATH environment variable and I have put all the dll's in
the same directory as my Java class, none of which seem to work. Does anyone
know how to solve this problem? I have read the instructions on
http://ms.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/java_mapscript_Tomcat_55 and the MapServer
wiki, but these don't seem to help. 

The binary also contains a mapserv.exe CGI executable and this one is
working fine, both mapserv.exe -v and when I invoke it through a webbrowser.


Kind regards,

Bas Vanmeulebrouk.
