connecting to mysql spatial

[Bart van den Eijnden]

You can't use the MySQL Spatial extensions with Mapserver unfortunately. OGR does not have a connector for the MySQL spatial extensions as well.

Best regards,

hi,
    I need to connect mapserver to an spatial database in mysql, for now 
I'am trying it with a simple table with name, and a location (type POINT).
    So, how can I access this data from mapserver and display it in a 
layer?, I think that I have to use OGR, but how.

Thank you,
Mauricio Stange
