I've been following MapServer from afar on James Fee's blog and I've finally decided to take the plunge. I'm a long time ArcIMS developer so these concepts in MapServer aren't that far off from what I'm used to doing, but I have to admit I'm at a loss at getting my first WMS service up and running. I installed MS4W and have that running. The Demo runs perfectly, but when I try and create my own .map file, I seem to have hit a wall. This is the contents of my mapfile. MAP NAME Installation SIZE 800 500 IMAGECOLOR 240 240 240 EXTENT 582919.88200 4182989.235900 610195.822000 4207241.321900 UNITS METERS PROJECTION "init=EPSG:32616" END WEB IMAGEPATH "/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/" IMAGEURL "/ms_tmp/" END LAYER NAME "Installation" TYPE POLYGON STATUS ON DATA "Installation_Area.shp" CLASS NAME 'Installation' OUTLINECOLOR 60 60 60 COLOR 255 255 0 SYMBOL 0 END END ENDNow when I test it, I get a blank grey background. http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=/ms4w/apache/htdocs/test/test.map&mode=map I'm sure there is something here I'm overlooking, but I just can't seem to debug it. Any direction would be wonderful.
Thanks,
David
