Shape layer is not shown. Please help

[Travis Kirstine GIS Tech]

Firstly, you should define a symbols.sym file that will be used to draw your
map symbols (points, lines, polygons)
It is declared in the map object just liike SHAPEPATH.  By default mapserver
will only draw points as one pixel if there is no
symbol defined


SYMBOLSET your path to the symbol.sym file    e.g.
/var/www/html/map_symbols/symbols.sym

open the symbol.sym file with a text editor and add the following

SYMBOL
   NAME 'circle'
   TYPE ELLIPSE
   FILLED TRUE
   POINTS
      1 1
    END
END

Save the file and close,  Add the following to your Brunnen CLASS in the
mapfile


    CLASS
        NAME "Brunnen"
        COLOR 255 0 0
        OUTLINECOLOR 0 255 0
        SYMBOL 'circle'
        SIZE 12
    END

  Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Shape layer is not shown. Please help


  Hi,

  I have a map file, which has two layers, one a raster layer, and the other
a shapefile. But the raster layer is shown whereas the layer Brunnen
(shapefile) is not shown. Can anyone help? I checked the path of the shape
file and it is ok.. Can anyone help me please? Is there anything missing in
the layer definitions of the layer "Brunnen"? My shapefile contains just
cross symbols.

  Thank you.
  Baris
