Configureing mapserver in someone else server {Scanned} {Scanned}

[Norman Barker]

Hi,

Create a shell script in the CGI-BIN directory that in turn calls mapserver this will allow you to configure the path variables for the process that gets executed so that MapServer can find its dependencies.

More here - http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/cgi-wrapper-script

As you say this is shared hosting the I guess you can't set the path in httpd.conf which is what I sometimes do, so try export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/var/www/cgi-bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
in the script.

(sorry - meant to send this to the list not just Zoltan!!)

Hi,

The behavior of windows and linux different. Windows looking for dll-s in 
the current directory then in the system directories.
Linux uses LD_LIBRARY_PATH or /etc/ld.so.conf for the directories to 
search for .so files.
