Hello, all:
I purchased a shard hosting plan a few months ago, and wnted to implement
mapserver. Due to the nature of shared hosting, all I can do is to upload
files. it is unfortunate that they do not allow compiling, installtion, or
change of environmental variables.
I have been looking around for about a month, and have not found a solution
yet.
I tried FWTOOLS, using the approach that Frank Warmerdam indicated (below), but
with no luck.
- upload mapserv executable and all the shared libraries somewhere.
- upload proj.4 support files (like epsg init file) somewhere
- create a mapserv wrapper script in the cgi-bin directory which sets
environment variables pointing to various things and then executes
the real mapserv binary. Environment variables would include:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH: needs to point to directory with all the .so files.
PROJ_LIB: needs to point to directory with the proj support files.
Now I have to come back to this mailing list for help. Basically, I am looking
for the mapserver cgi and the SO files (for libpng, freetype, libgd, Zlib,
Proj4, GEOS, GDAL). I will use a wrapper script to define the location of the
dependencies, using Frank Warmerdam's suggestions.
I will appreciate it if anyone can email me this type of binary package.
Honestly, I do not know if such package exists.
Thank you
Peter
