Reprojection problem

[Doyon, Jean-Francois]

Aha!

It looks like the combination of cgi map_layer_class_expression and the
projection causes MS to generate an error!

This is a bug :(

Here you go Ed ... I'm at a loss!  Right now I have to think there's a
bizarre issue with the data, or maybe it's the fact I set the expression and
symbol via the URL? I 'll look into that last one ...

The MAP PROJECTION:

  PROJECTION
    "init=epsg:42304"
  END

The LAYER:

  LAYER
    NAME featureannotate
    TYPE point
    STATUS off
    DATA geo_np
    PROJECTION
      "init=epsg:4326"
    END
    METADATA
      LEGEND_GROUP "theme"
      GROUP_CONTROLLER "0"
      LAY_TITLE "Annotation layer for feature"
      CHECKABLE "0"
      LEGEND_ORDER "-1"
    END
    LABELITEM "FEATURE_NA"
    CLASSITEM "UNIQUE_KEY"
    CLASS
      EXPRESSION "w8g9q7regc87ctr8743tbca084ytc"
      SYMBOL -1
      SIZE 30
      COLOR 0 0 0
      LABEL
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        FONT "arial"
        SIZE 14
        COLOR 0 0 0
        OUTLINECOLOR 226 226 226
        POSITION ur
        FORCE TRUE
      END
    END
  END

JF -

That sounds very strange!  Can you post the LAYER definition for the
troublesome layer, or at least the PROJECTION block for it?

Hello,

I recently upgraded from 3.6.6 to 4.6.1, and now I'm having problems with a
map that reprojects a single layer ...

I have a MAP level PROJECTION object, and one layer with a different
PROJECTION than the others ... (The map is in an LCC projection, and the
layer in geographic).

This used to work fine in 3.6.6, but now I get "msDrawMap(): Image handling
error. Failed to draw layer named 'featureannotate'." ... That layer being
the one in geographic that should be getting reprojected.

If I take out the PROJECTION parameter of the layer, no errors!  I tried
moving it's definition with the layer, which didn't change anything ... I
also tried using both epsg codes and in-line definitions, which also didn't
help :(

I was using PROJ 4.4.5 ... Upgraded to 4.4.9 ... That didn't help.  I
re-compiled MS just to be safe, the problem remains ...

I have a WMS server running off the same setup without complaints (including
reprojection).  The shapefile looks ok, shpdump/shptest and dbfdump didn't
produce anything out of the ordinary ...

Any ideas?

Thanks!
