PHP/Mapscript Crash...

Fri Mar 25 15:42:54 PST 2005

I'm having the exact same problem on Solaris.  We're porting our app
(PHP & PostGIS) to Solaris for a trial and have run into this problem.
  Everything else is working just fine.

If I change the maps LABEL to BITMAP, then I see the text, otherwise,
when it draws() it gives doesn't give an error, just dies.  I've
trussed the httpd process and don't see anything that's failing.

I have gd 2.33 and freetype 2.1.9.

MapServer Version 	MapServer version 4.2.5 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG
OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=FREETYPE
SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL
INPUT=SHAPEFILE
PHP MapScript Version 	($Revision: 1.194.2.6 $ $Date: 2004/08/25 16:27:43 $)

Thanks.
