[mapserver-users] Does tilemode actually work?

[Sven Geggus]

Starting from a mapserver setup which works fine in WMS Mode I tried to
access the same machine with mode=tile.

Unfortunately it looks like something is wrong with the zoom factor.
Position seems to be fairly correct however:

Just compare the following URLs:

http://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/14/8574/5625.png
http://geo.gegg.us/lv-bw.cgi?LAYERS=DVDOP2&mode=tile&tilemode=gmap&tile=8574+5625+14

The first URL is from the Openstreetmap Tileserver, the second is just the
image of a public WMS-Server reprojected from GK2 (epsg:31467).

Mapfile looks like this:

--cut--

The mapserver Version in use is 5.4.2 from Debian GNU/Linux:

$ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/mapserv -v
MapServer version 5.4.2 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP
