[mapserver-users] Re: MapServer 5.6.2 released

[Daniel Morissette]

Hi everyone,

An issue has been reported with PostGIS layers in 5.6.2, and I suspect 
most uses of postgis layers in projected coordinates (i.e. except for 
lat,lon in degrees) will produce a fatal error. More details here:

http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3324#comment:5

I will release 5.6.3 as soon as we have a confirmed fix, so I'd 
recommend that you wait before upgrading.

Sorry about this

Daniel
