Hi

a new web object has already a metadata attribute "prebuild", so you 
don't need to create a new one. Just set the properties on the metadata: 
web.metadata.set('foo', 'bar'), or even shorter:
map_obj.web.metadata.set('foo', 'bar')

Thanks, Thomas.
I changed it to:

"labelpnt generates the point relative to which the label
will be placed."

Better?

Hi Adam,

 

I doubt it, but I won't rule out anything.  But the MapServer (non-WMS)
layers display fine, so that's one thing that doesn't make sense.

Hi all,

 

I've posted this to the GeoMoose list since the problem was occurring in
a GeoMoose application, but also would like to see what insights there
may be here on the MapServer list.  Sorry for any duplication.

 

I have a few WMS layers that I consume in GeoMoose. Some of these are
vector line layers such as roads. They look correct in the application's
map view. But when I compose a printable map, these layers have a black
background which obscures other layers. If I set the "transparent"
property to false, the black background goes away, but then I can't see
any underlying data. 

 

By the way, I do have control over the WMS services in this case. I
tried to set Offsite to 0 0 0, but that didn't seem to help either. The
image format should be png, and as best as I can tell, this is what it's
producing.  The WMS is at MapServer 6.0.1, while the application is at
MS 5.6.  It appears to be some problem with the alpha channels. Any
suggestions?

That's correct. The labelpnt is really the computed point based on the type of a geometry we're processing. For a point it's, well, just the point. For a polygon it's based on a number of successively complex computations to make sure the point is in the polygon- starting with the center of the features bbox and ending with a center of gravity computation. Lines use the middle of the longest segment.

Bob,

   Sounds like the "type" of PNG is causing the problem.  Have a look at 
the properties (using gdalinfo) of the PNG image the wms produces (use 
"curl" to get and save the image.  Is it RGB? RGBA?

Hi Brent,

 

I'll admit to some ignorance here, not sure how to use the curl command
in that capacity- do you have an example?

 

Regarding the output format, here is what I have on the WMS server side:

 

OUTPUTFORMAT

  NAME "agg"

  DRIVER "AGG/PNG"

  MIMETYPE "image/png"

  EXTENSION PNG

  IMAGEMODE RGBA

  TRANSPARENT ON

  FORMATOPTION "INTERLACE=OFF"

END

 

 

-But I'm still looking for something on the client side (GeoMoose side)
which might be manipulating that image, since this problem is only
happening with the printed map images.

I've posted this to the GeoMoose list since the problem was occurring in
a GeoMoose application, but also would like to see what insights there
may be here on the MapServer list.  Sorry for any duplication.

 

I have a few WMS layers that I consume in GeoMoose. Some of these are
vector line layers such as roads. They look correct in the application's
map view. But when I compose a printable map, these layers have a black
background which obscures other layers. If I set the "transparent"
property to false, the black background goes away, but then I can't see
any underlying data. 

 

By the way, I do have control over the WMS services in this case. I
tried to set Offsite to 0 0 0, but that didn't seem to help either. The
image format should be png, and as best as I can tell, this is what it's
producing.  The WMS is at MapServer 6.0.1, while the application is at
MS 5.6.  It appears to be some problem with the alpha channels. Any
suggestions?

Thanks it's a good way so it's work with no creation of webObj and there
metadata


    amapfile.web.maxscaledenom = 1550000
    amapfile.web.minscaledenom = 1000
    amapfile.web.imagepath="/var/www/tmp/"
    amapfile.web.imageurl="../tmp/"
    #aamapfile.webdef.metadata = mapscript.hashTableObj()
    amapfile.web.metadata.set("ows_TITLE", title)
    u = get_object_or_404(Param, libel_prm=settings.LIBELEDESPARAM)
    mapServerUrl = u.sitepath_prm #http://site/mapserv?
    mapfilepath = u.mapfilepath_prm #/media/mapfile/
    mapPathToWrite ="mapfile/"
    amapfile.web.metadata.set("ows_ONLINERESOURCE",

Subject: [mapserver-users] Using OSM with our own data
Message-ID: <4ED7ACF0.6040105@langhirano.it>

Hi everybody.

After quite a long time I am back using mapserver. Seeing how well it is 
cabable of rendering OSM data I would like to use it as a background for 
the geographical information I would like to display. I followed the 
nice howto and now my new Mapserver setup is ready to display a local 
stored portion of Openstreetmap OR my own data, not both :-)

The problem, as far as I know,  is that I cannot successfully merge the 
mapfile I created for my data and the one automatically generated by the 
mapserver-utils mapfile generator; if I try to paste the LAYER part 
containing my data, it is apparently ignored (and not even wrongly 
projected, as far as I can see). Is there any caveat I can be aware of 
or, better, is there some other doc explaining the use of OSM data with 
other layers?

Thank you in advance and sorry for my poor English

You need to know what character encoding the data is in, UTF8 or 
WINDOWS-1256 or ISO8859-6, etc

Then in:

LABEL
   ...
   FONT "myArabicFont"
   ENCODING "....." # put the correct encoding in place of .....
   ...
END


You also need to have a truetype font file that supports your encoding.
And Mapserver needs to be built with fribidi-0.19.2

Hi,

Thanks for this. Now I finally understood why I could not make OGR output to work on a Ubuntu server by following faithfully the corresponding document http://mapserver.org/output/ogr_output.html
It was because the /tmp/ directory was not writeable for Mapserver. I will make a documentation ticket.

Hello,

There shouldn't be an issue with using OSM data (or OSM data/mapfile 
created through the mapserver-utils 
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/wiki/RenderingOsmDataUbuntu) with your 
own data.  I know for the FOSS4G Benchmarking exercise we did have to 
make some changes to the mapfile, such as making sure each layer has a 
proper PROJECTION object, which you should keep in mind as well as you 
are mixing data from several data sources.

If it is helpful, the mapfile used in that exercise is available at 
http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/foss4g/benchmarking/wms/2011/mapserver/osm-google.map

No.  GDAL can read a Geospatial PDF (and rasterize for output), but as 
far as I know none of Mapserver's output drivers produce georeferenced PDFs.

Hi Nico

I have done the same thing.  Using OSM data as a base layer (in a DB) and
then have added extra layers to the mapserver-utils mapfile.  It worked
fine for me.

I got had trouble at one point as I was not using the PROJECTION tag in the
layer.  This fixed the issue for me.

Can I suggest you start with a very simple layer to just get it started,
then build it up from there.  If you copy and paste a large lot in I have
found it easy to get lost and hard to find/fix any issues.
You can refer to many different map data sources as you need.

Matt  :)

Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A6305D44C@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

I have troubles with getting the ORG output to work. 

I have configured CVS ouput like this
OUTPUTFORMAT
  NAME "CSV"
  DRIVER "OGR/CSV"
  MIMETYPE "text/csv"
  FORMATOPTION "LCO:GEOMETRY=AS_WKT"
  FORMATOPTION "STORAGE=filesystem"
  FORMATOPTION "FORM=simple"
  FORMATOPTION "FILENAME=result.csv"
END

I have set TEMPPATH in the MAP/WEB
WEB
       TEMPPATH "/usr/temp/"

/usr/temp directory has 0777 permissions.  Mapserver can write error.log file into that directory without troubles. 
WFS works normally with outputformats GML2 and GML3. However, WFS requests with CSV outputformat fails and I am getting error messages like this:

 msOGRWriteFromQuery(): General error message. Failed to open result file '/usr/temp/4edb45fd_707c_0/result.csv'.

Error.log file is also listing all the features and all the attributes so the query itself is successful. 
I am trying this with Ubuntu server and Mapserver version is 6.0.1.  It is also odd that I am sure that I did manage to get valid zipped shapefiles out from this same server a couple of days ago but now all that I am getting back is empty zipfile. Error.log does not report about any error in this case.

Any suggestions what to try next or what to do for finding the ultimate reason for the error?

Hi,

Thanks, natural thing that I had not checked. Fortunately or unfortunately, none of the mounts seem to have more than 2% used.  I guess that writing the request output to error.log located in the same mount would also fail in that case.

Jukka,

I've started having this issue on Windows mapserver just recently. I have
not had this problem on unix. Not sure if this is a mapserver issue or a
gdal one.

I get similar errors to yours:

msOGRWriteFromQuery(): General error message. OGR CreateDataSource failed
for 'C:/cm2_files/tmp/4edb808b_178_0/ship_locations.gdb.zip' with driver
'FileGDB'.

It appears to only happen with FORMATOPTION "STORAGE=filesystem".

Hi,

Part of the problem can be solved by setting TEMPPATH at MAP - WEB level.  See http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3354 and recent http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4103.  That makes Mapserver to use the desired directory as a target for the temporary stuff.  However, there seems still be something that fails at least for me.

Could you try to add TEMPPATH to your mapfile and see if you still get the same error?

Hi,

I could repeat the error on Windows (MS4W and Mapserver 6.0.0).  This time data come from shapefile while previously they came from PostGIS.  However, your error is not exactly the same than mine. You have "OGR CreateDataSource failed" while I am getting "Failed to open result file".

<ServiceException code="NoApplicableCode" locator="mapserv">
msOGRWriteFromQuery(): General error message. Failed to open result file &#39;/ms4w/wfstemp/4edbae34_126c_0/result.csv&#39;.
  </ServiceException>
</ServiceExceptionReport>

Subject: [mapserver-users] Mapcache question.
Message-ID: <CACC0xJJUSwXRHPc3NmX9HSp8oi=MKSn1uXF2+Ds57_3r=YEsjw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi:

I hope this is the proper place to ask questions about Mapcache since it's
been moved into the trunk of Mapserver.

I'm wondering if Mapcache can help with a particular setup, and if so maybe
some advice or direction on where to start?

Here's the setup.  Every 5 minutes a new set of GeoTiffs are created in a
new directory.  I create a tileindex for the GeoTiffs and use those in the
map layer.  Every hour, anything more than 5hours old gets deleted.
I have a single mapfile setup.

The general layer is setup like:

    LAYER
        NAME 'IMG1'
        METADATA
            'wms_title'           'IMG 1'
            'wms_srs'             'EPSG:4326'
            'wms_extent'          'MINX MINY MAXX MAXY'
            'default_targetdate' ''
            'targetdate_validation_pattern' '^[0-9]{12}$'
        END
        STATUS ON
        TILEINDEX '/PATH/TO/IMG/DIR/%targetdate%/TILEINDEX.shp'
        TILEITEM 'Location'
        TYPE RASTER
    END


I'm currently loading these images as overlays for Googlemaps. using the
mode=tile&tilemode=gmaps...&targetdate=2011...etc.
Problem is it's too slow. I end up loading hundreds of images, as I
basically create an animation using sequential times.

I'd like to be able to have a single mapcache config file, that will pass
the date through to pull the proper shapefile, and have the result cached
so next time it's loading off the disk.  MOST of the images end up being
blank/transparent tiles.

Is Mapcache a good choice for this?
The front end for this is just a simple GoogleMaps viewport, but ends up
loading multiple timeslots for display.  It generates the request URL (not
currently in WMS fashion but could be).

Thanks for any help I can get.

Hi Jerl,

Maybe! is the short answer. The analysis of the problem is:

1. What is the primary purpose of mapcache?

Will it is a flexible tools that can do a lot of things, like on-the-fly 
cache building, compositing images from tiles in the cache, etc. It's 
primary purpose is to provide tile generation and tile serving for 
environments that need tiles instead of draw on demand images.

2. So to some extent this depends on your usage model, ie: tile requests 
per unit time.

3. it sounds like from your description below, that you are serving draw 
on demand images and not using a tile cache at the moment.

To use a tile cache given your current scenario, you would still have to 
do everything the same as before, but you would also have to figure out 
what tiles at the various zoom levels needed to be removed when any of 
the GeoTiffs changed, either replace some existing GeoTiff or got 
removed because of age.

I'm not sure I see anyway that it will magically simplify your process. 
And on the contrary, it will add some complexity to the whole process. 
That said, if your demand is increasing and your server(s) are having 
trouble keeping up with the image demand, then adding mapcache could be 
a solution.

Jerl,
mapcache itself does not do any pruning of the caches it has created,
but you can get the same effect by using a cache backend that supports
expiration (i.e. memcache).
Mapcache can fit your need, provided:
- you configure your tileset with a "targetdate" <dimension>- you use
a memcache backend to store the created tiles, and set an <expires>
value in mapcache to 5 hours
If the memory requirement for storing 5 hours worth of tiles is too
important for a memcache server instance, you can have a look at
membase which will also store less frequently used data to disk. The
membase protocol is compatible with memcache, so you can use either
memcache or membase with the same mapcache configuration.

Of course, by running a script every hour to delete expired tiles as
you are doing now, you can then use the classic disk based cache
backend.
regards,
thomas

Thanks for the suggestion, but I ran across that ticket earlier and setting TEMPPATH didn't address my problem. It does direct the temporary files to the desired location I still see:

  <ServiceException code="NoApplicableCode" locator="mapserv">
msOGRWriteFromQuery(): General error message. Failed to open result file &#39;/Library/WebServer/Documents/output/4edbd893_e3b_0/result.csv&#39;.
  </ServiceException>
</ServiceExceptionReport>

in my output file.

Thanks Stephen and Thomas.

I think I'll be good with the dimension and the disk cache.  Unfortunately,
the apache we have doesn't have memcache built into it (too much hassle to
upgrade it right now) and the version of SQLite is too old...also a hassle
to upgrade.

I was able to get it to load the proper map when just using the entire
bounding box, the whole world.  Now to make it work with the the tilemode
for google...which looks like that should be straight forward??


Thanks guys!!

I almost have it, I just can't seem to get the targetdate dimension to
populate.

/mapcache/gmaps/country at WGS84/1/1/0.png works fine if I don't have the
layers that require the targetdate parameter.  I get a "parameter pattern
failed validation" error returned from Mapserver when I have the necessary
layers defined in the mapcache config file.

The obvious thing for me to try was:
/mapcache/gmaps/country at WGS84/1/1/0.png?targetdate=201112042105

But that failed.  Is there a way to get the targetdate to fill in? I've
moved it around a bit, but still can't get it to fill in.

Thanks again!!

Subject: [mapserver-users] Post body is short
Message-ID: <003701ccb2cc$ba120f40$2e362dc0$@aamdal.com>

Hi there,

 

We are running a service where the access to mapfiles needs to be password
protected. I?m using PHP Session for that, and until recently I?ve used a
wrapper which looked like this:

 

session_start();

$oParams = new HawkSoftware\URL\REQUESTParameters();

try {

            $oParams->RemoveKey("MAP", false);

            

      } catch (Exception $e) {

            

      }

      $oParams->Items['map'] = $_SESSION['MAPFILE'];

 

$strURL = "C:/ms4w/Apache/cgi-bin-hidden/mapserv.exe QUERY_STRING=\"" .
$oParams->GetUTF8DecodedString() . "\"";

 

if ($oParams->Items['encode'] == 'true') {

      echo utf8_encode(HawkSoftware\Execution\Util::GetOutput($strURL));

} else {

      echo HawkSoftware\Execution\Util::GetOutput($strURL);

}

 

The GetOutput-function uses passthru(). The only problem with that one is
the command line restriction (of somewhat 8k characters) in windows, which
sometimes becomes a limitation for requesting over 70 ID?s on a WFS request
(those Filter strings become very long!!). Also, I don?t think it?s the most
efficient way to fetch data from mapserv.exe .

 

So I saw the http://mapserver.org/ogc/mapscript.html and made a script like
this:

 

$oMap = new \mapObj($_SESSION['MAPFILE']);

      $oRequest = new OWSRequestObj();

      $oRequest->loadparams();

      ms_ioinstallstdouttobuffer();

      $oMap->owsdispatch($oRequest);

      

      $strContType = ms_iostripstdoutbuffercontenttype();

      if ($strContType == 'image/png') {

            header('Content-type: image/png');

      }

      

      if($_REQUEST['encode']) {

            echo utf8_encode(ms_iogetstdoutbufferstring());

      } else {

            ms_iogetStdoutBufferBytes();

      }

      ms_ioresethandlers();

 

This one works great on GET requests. However, it does not work on POST
requests, it will print ?Post body is short? (I really need the post
requests, as GET does not carry enough data). This is a known issue, but I
can?t say I know what to do about it. Some say it?s problem with the fastcgi
module, and it will run fine on cgi. But how do I get mapscript to run on
CGI? Or is this the wrong approach?

 

I am running ms4w on Windows Server 2008 .

 

Best regards,

H?kon

Jerl,

Sounds like you do not have a validation_pattern for the data parameter.

only the wms and wmts services support dimensions (there is no spec
defining this support for the others).

you can either adapt your gmaps/js code to build a wmts url, or hack
into the mapcache code to add dimension support to the tms / gmaps
service.

Hi Jukka

Accroding to your suggestions, I am trying to use ogc:Contains instead of ogc:BBOX in my OL request, but it fails with "Invalid or Unsupported FILTER in GetFeature" error. So, using something like this:

        protocol: OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
            version: "1.1.0",
            url:  "http://www.coin.hr/cgi-bin/mywfs6?SERVICE=WFS",
            srsName:"EPSG:900913",
            //featureNS: "http://www.openplans.org/topp",
            featureNS: "http://www.coin.hr",
            geometryName: "msGeometry",
            featurePrefix: "ms"
        }),
                box: false,
                hover: false,
                //multipleKey: "shiftKey",
                toggleKey: "ctrlKey",
        single: false,

generates the following mapserver SUCCESSFUL request:

<wfs:GetFeature xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" service="WFS" version="1.1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><wfs:Query typeName="ms:katastar_vodnjan_poligon" srsName="EPSG:900913" xmlns:ms="http://www.coin.hr"><ogc:Filter xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"><ogc:BBOX><ogc:PropertyName>msGeometry</ogc:PropertyName><gml:Envelope xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" srsName="EPSG:900913"><gml:lowerCorner>1534339.5955039 5613892.0444208</gml:lowerCorner><gml:upperCorner>1534345.5671467 5613898.0160636</gml:upperCorner></gml:Envelope></ogc:BBOX></ogc:Filter></wfs:Query></wfs:GetFeature>

Using the same OL request but with "filterType: OpenLayers.Filter.Spatial.CONTAINS,", I get the following:

<wfs:GetFeature xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" service="WFS" version="1.1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><wfs:Query typeName="ms:katastar_vodnjan_poligon" srsName="EPSG:900913" xmlns:ms="http://www.coin.hr"><ogc:Filter xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"><ogc:Contains><ogc:PropertyName>msGeometry</ogc:PropertyName><gml:Envelope xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" srsName="EPSG:900913"><gml:lowerCorner>1534345.2685645 5613850.242921</gml:lowerCorner><gml:upperCorner>1534348.254386 5613853.2287424</gml:upperCorner></gml:Envelope></ogc:Contains></ogc:Filter></wfs:Query></wfs:GetFeature>

and this is giving me the above error

Obviously I am doing something wrong :-)

Any help? I have MapServer 6.0.1, built from source

According to the standard BBOX is a synonyme for Intersects but for example Geoserver is using it in a bit different way. It is comparing if feature bounding boxes are intersecting with reference bounding box if BBOX is used. This suits perfectly for filling a screen with features because feature bounding boxes can be found fast from the spatial index of a database. However, with lines and polygons this search is sometimes finding extra features. Intersects is doing a real comparison of geometries which is accurate but slower.  If you click on a map why don't you use ogc:Contains for finding polygons or ogc;DWithin filter for finding all kind of features with a buffer?

Hi,

First, I have been thinking that there is perhaps not so often special advantage in using Contains. It will find features which are containing the whole reference geometry and that makes sense if point is used as the reference and features to find are polygons. With lines and polygons as reference the result is perhaps not the desired one, because intersecting features are not selected. It depends on the use case.

I believe the next Contains example is valid. You can test it yourself by doing copy-paste and sending it with Poster towards http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows

<wfs:GetFeature xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" service="WFS" version="1.1.0" maxFeatures="1000" outputFormat="text/xml; subtype=gml/3.1.1"><wfs:Query xmlns:lv="http://latuviitta.fi/" srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3067" typeName="lv:pks_pienalue"><wfs:PropertyName>lv:name</wfs:PropertyName><wfs:PropertyName>lv:ogc_fid</wfs:PropertyName><wfs:PropertyName>lv:the_geom</wfs:PropertyName><ogc:Filter><ogc:Contains><ogc:PropertyName>lv:the_geom</ogc:PropertyName><gml:Point srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3067">
<gml:pos srsDimension="2">385338.63323124044 6680121.5237366</gml:pos>
</gml:Point></ogc:Contains></ogc:Filter></wfs:Query></wfs:GetFeature>

Changing Contains to Intersects gives the same result. I do not have Mapserver WFS at the moment to test with.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Specify resolution (or pixel size) in WMS requests
Message-ID: <4EDCF4B9.7050000@r3-gis.com>

Basically, I am looking for a way to something analogous to 
DEFRESOLUTION in a WMS request. The standard says, that a pixel is 0.28 
mm x 0.28 mm (25.4/0.28 ~= 90.71 DPI). I could not found a way to change 
this in the WMS 1.3.0 standard.
Is there a MapServer vendor parameter, similar to the one in GeoServer, 
http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/vendor.html#format-options 
?

Subject: [mapserver-users] Reloading MapCache configuration file on changes?
Message-ID: <005801ccb39e$688abff0$39a03fd0$@firstbasesolutions.com>

Thomas,

 

Is there a better way force MapCache to reload its configuration script than
restarting apache?  I'm working on an application that will use two
load-balanced web servers running MapCache, all pointing to a single central
tile repository and a single central .xml configuration file.  The
configuration file will occasionally be edited, either with deletions or
additional tilesets.  Both web servers need to reload the updated
configuration .xml.  

 

Is it possible to set up MapCache to check if the config file was recently
updated and, if so, reload the config .xml?  It looks like this is currently
enabled under FastCGI, but not under Apache.

 

John

Hi list,

I'm playing with mapscript python and SLD files, and having some kinds 
of troubles.
It seems that applySLD doesn't build an EXPRESSION tag for the CLASS it 
refers too.
Starting from a mapfile with CLASS and EXPRESSION set, the SLD body 
generated is correct :
<Rule>
<Name>VELOV</Name>
<ogc:Filter><ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThanOrEqualTo><ogc:PropertyName>nbbornettes</ogc:PropertyName><ogc:Literal>20</ogc:Literal></ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThanOrEqualTo></ogc:Filter>
<PointSymbolizer>
<Graphic>
<Mark>
<WellKnownName>square</WellKnownName>
<Fill>
<CssParameter name="fill">#993300</CssParameter>
</Fill>
</Mark>
<Size>8</Size>
</Graphic>
</PointSymbolizer>
</Rule>

but applying this same SLD file to the mapfile via mapscript gives only 
a FILTER set:
FILTER  ("nbbornettes">= 20)
...
CLASS
       NAME "VELOV"
       STYLE
         ANGLE 0
         COLOR 153 51 0
         OFFSET 0 0
         SIZE 8
         SYMBOL "sld_mark_symbol_square_filled"
       END # STYLE
     END # CLASS

The matching between SLd Filters and Classes has been lost. It means 
that you can't build any SLD file with more than one class/filter and 
see them drawn on the map.
I 'm using mapscript 6.0.1

Thanks for any clue

Best regards

Guillaume

AFAIK, this isn't possible. Inside an apache module, the configuration
is considered read-only as it is shared between multiple worker
threads/processed spawned by httpd.

apachectl configtest && apachectl graceful will restart the server
gracefully, i.e. without aborting ongoing requests, and will load the
new configuration for subsequent requests.

But the second layer in which I try to connect the dots in a line,

Hi guys:

I'm having trouble with mapcache_seed

I get a segmentation fault, it appears to happen at line 626
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/trunk/mapserver/mapcache/src/mapcache_seed.c#L626

Warning messages from the compile process:

If I put some fprintf statements around line 626, I only get the first one:
    fprintf(stderr,"FOO\n");
    dimkey = NULL,*dimvalue = NULL,*key,*last,*optargcpy = NULL;
    fprintf(stderr,"BAR\n");

prints out:
$ ./src/mapcache_seed
FOO
Segmentation fault

Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Jerl

Actually, this only happens for POSTGIS layers and not for SHAPEFILE 
layers, and only with MapServer 6. I have filled a ticket.

Hello,

I recently came across an interesting openlayers application that uses geonames.org for a search functionality.? I would like to be able to use my own gis data on the searches.?? I came across http://mapserver.org/trunk/output/template_output.html, which starts to describe how to make a template.? I just have a couple questions.

1)? My understanding is I can use any .map files that have a layer with appropriate fields.? I just need to add another output format so that my .map file references a JSON template, and I can keep the standard image output formats.? Is this correct?


2) How would the html request need to be formatted to search a specific value in a specific layer and return JSON?


Any help and / or examples would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks

Subject: [mapserver-users] Maperver upgrade 5.6 - 6.0 - OUTPUTFORMAT ?
Message-ID: <1323352697.23707.10.camel@tommaso-laptop>

Hallo List,

I'm trying to upgrade my app from Mapserver 5.6 to Mapserver 6.0. 
The Problem is, that the same Mapfile produces two different maps with
the to Mapserver version. The map by mapserver 6.0 appears like "out of
focus".
See the attachments for a example. I'm missing something regarding
OUTPUTFORMAT?
In the WMS Request I'm using  " format=png " or  " format=png24 ", with
the same result.
The mapfile is below.
  
Greetings Tommaso

MAP
    NAME test-map
    STATUS ON
    UNITS meters
    IMAGETYPE AGG

    OUTPUTFORMAT
       NAME 'AGG'

    END

        "proj=utm"
        "zone=32"

antialiasing causes vertical and horizontal lines to appear blurred.
switch to gif if you need aliased results.

1)      Correct. Templates are just a means of presenting the results of a query operation. I've used templates to return json successfully.

2)      Again, you need to issue a query. So to find a record in a layer you might do something like:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mapfile&mode=itemquery&qlayer=layer&qitem=item&qstring=value&qformat=jsonformat

This assumes that: for the layer in question you've setup a validation pattern for qstring and you've defined a output format called 'jsonformat'.

The one limitation I've found (and would like to fix) is that there's no easy way to handle exceptions relative to the output format. For example, if you're outputting json it would be nice to return errors (if possible, certain ones like mapfile not found can't be dealt with other than in the default way) as json too.

Let me know if you have questions.

Steve

I'm a linux novice and need immediate help properly installing &
configuring MapServer on my dedicated server.

I could also use some help properly setting up PHP on my server. I'm unable
to do some basic tasks like downloading via file_get_contents() and
ftp_get(). No errors are thrown either, which I think should be happening.

Email me privately if you have solid experience building MapServer, the
amount of time it would take to install, and your fee.

Hi Andrew

I have had a few servers built by people I hired through vworker.com
I can't remember exactly (I can look it up if you want) but it cost less
than $50 each time.  Just to get the server running with some test data.

I have been very happy with the results.  Just know what you want before
hand, and make sure you are clear in the bid exactly what you want set up,
and how you want it configured.
Be clear as to how you want mapserver configured.  I have given test data
and asked them to show me an example rendering a map in WMS and through php
using mapscript.  That way you are confident things are working.

You should have it done in a day or two if you go down this route.
Hope you find a good solution.

Matt  :)

Steve,

Thank you for your assistance.? The code is starting to work.? I just have a couple more questions.

1)? How can I change the query on the html call to use regular expressions, or more particularly make the search a "begins with" search. Using qlayer=myLayer&qitem=MyField&qstring='myValue' obliviously returns only one result, however I would like to search for n items

2) In the JSON template, I have a comma separating each result.? I thought that I could remove the final comma by adding [feature trimlast=','].? The final comment was not removed.? how do I correctly use [feature trimlast=',']

3)? for JSON templates is a variable for "total results"?? If not is there another way to get a record count?

Thanks

1)????? Correct. Templates are just a means of presenting the results of a query operation. I?ve used templates to return json successfully. 
2)????? Again, you need to issue a query. So to find a record in a layer you might do something like:
?
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mapfile&mode=itemquery&qlayer=layer&qitem=item&qstring=value&qformat=jsonformat
?
This assumes that: for the layer in question you?ve setup a validation pattern for qstring and you?ve defined a output format called ?jsonformat?.
?
The one limitation I?ve found (and would like to fix) is that there?s no easy way to handle exceptions relative to the output format. For example, if you?re outputting json it would be nice to return errors (if possible, certain ones like mapfile not found can?t be dealt with other than in the default way) as json too.
?
Let me know if you have questions.

Hello,
?
I recently came across an interesting openlayers application that uses geonames.org for a search functionality.? I would like to be able to use my own gis data on the searches.?? I came across http://mapserver.org/trunk/output/template_output.html, which starts to describe how to make a template.? I just have a couple questions.
?
1)? My understanding is I can use any .map files that have a layer with appropriate fields.? I just need to add another output format so that my .map file references a JSON template, and I can keep the standard image output formats.? Is this correct?
?
2) How would the html request need to be formatted to search a specific value in a specific layer and return JSON?
?
?
Any help and / or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Well, but I need antialiasing...With gif the lines are correctly
rendered, but not the icons. 
With Mapserver 5.6, format=png24, lines and icons are both rendered as
expected (see attachments).
My gif definition in mapfile:
   OUTPUTFORMAT
      NAME "gif"
      DRIVER GD/GIF
      MIMETYPE "image/gif"
      IMAGEMODE PC256
      EXTENSION "gif"
   END

Hi Jukka,
though there is no direct way of producing GeoPDF in MapServer, however you
can write small code using iText and mapscript that can consume output of
Mapserver and convert it into GeoPDF. I have done same thing using 5.2
version of mapserver to create layered GeoPDF. 
Thanks,
Sumit.



Hi, 

Mapserver can output PDF but can it produce also georeferenced PDF files?

Message-ID: <CAHt2vhUQ5S9z8wE9BoQA+GxfhRnd-DD6vvn-HgshX0SuWF5cQw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

We are planning to launch a major mapserver production site where i'm
required to launch many mapserver instances in some form of cluster.

So I basically have some questions related to this:

- Does anyone have good tips on performance for running mapserver on
apache?
- Any specific build parameters I should pay attention to?
- Does it run as a native apache module, or is it required to work through
cgi?  In which case: will i get better performance by using fastcgi? (we
are not using databases but shapefiles).
- Should I consider lighttpd or nginx instead?

- Any other tips related to clustering mapserver instances? :).

Note that we are using live data, so we cannot cache them, except for a
minute or so.

Thanks for your time.

Hi,

If it needs coding then it is not for me but I do not have any immediate need either. I was just thinking that if the georeferencing method is published and open and if it mainly means, as I suppose, embedding some code box in the pdf file then perhaps Mapserver could be made to do it while generating the pdf output. But maybe it is not so easy. Wikipedia does not know any open source software writing out geospatial PDF http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geospatial_PDF

I am using Mapserver 5.6 and php Mapscript to render maps for my web

to navigate beyond the extents of the map, into empty space. Is there
a way to configure mapserver to constrain navigation to within the

Apache should be plenty quick. Start with using fastcgi and optimizing your data: e.g. create spatial indexes, use optimized raster formats and then optimizing your configuration (scale dependent layers w/things like reduced resolution layers where possible). -Steve

Subject: [mapserver-users] Problem with PHP MapScript $layer->nextShape()
Message-ID: <4EE296F7.10509@gmx.net>

Hi all

I tried to use with PHP MapScript the function for the LAYER class 
"nextShape()" as described in the documentation with a small script 
example.

The short version is
   $extentMap = $map->extent;
   $status = $layer->whichShapes($extentMap);
   $shape = $layer->nextShape();

This works fine when layer and map are in the same projection. If the 
projections of layer and map differ (e.g. EPSG 4326 for map and 3035 for 
layer) then I get a segmentation fault. This happens for both MapServer 
6.0.1 and 5.6.6, PHP version is 5.3, OS is Linux.

If before the call of whichShapes() I re-project the extent object 
"$extentMap" to the projection of the layer then everything works fine. 
So the following workaround seems to work:

   $extentMap = $map->extent;
   $mapProjObj = ms_newProjectionObj($map->getProjection());
   $layerProjObj = ms_newProjectionObj($layer->getProjection());
   $extentMap->project($mapProjObj, $layerProjObj);
   $status = $layer->whichShapes($extentMap);
   $shape = $layer->nextShape();


Best regards
Armin

Hi Ian,

The label point is the that the label is placed about. The actual label 
position can change relative to the label point based on POSITION and 
other attributes of the label.

I don't have the RFC in front of me but here is a good example to test with:

http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/GEOMTRANSFORM-labelpnt-location-td6408065.html

Try varying the LABEL POSITION and see how it behaves.

Message-ID: <CAG+8Wb9UM66Uh+X5LshK1vpi-3A2691UuHZHE5DnyKdhbUWZ8A@mail.gmail.com>

Folks,

PHP MapScript has a method called zoompoint that has a MaxGeoref
extent parameter to prevent pan/zoom beyond a maximum extent. However,
a similar method, zoomrectangle does not have such a parameter. As a
consequence, using a rubberband on a front-end to zoom may produce an
erroneous extent beyond what could be set had one used zoompoint,
notably if zoomrectangle were executed at the margins of a map image
and the result is of fixed width/height. I am wondering how best to
specify a max extent when using zoomrectangle and welcome any

Ian,

  How are you specifying it in your mapfile?

Brent,

We copied the example
http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/GEOMTRANSFORM-labelpnt-location-t
d6408065.html.

However we see the GEOMTRANSFORM labelpnt drawing the circle on the
point location not the center of the label text.

Thanks

Ian

Message-ID: <00b801ccb7de$0a060090$1e1201b0$@gmail.com>

Hi,

I'm trying to add levels on OpenLayer, called with WMS from MapServer. It
works but, if I increase zoom to the ground, at a certain level all layers
disappear. Any suggestion?

 

Thanks

Here is the map file we are using ms4w  3.0.3.

 

We thought the larger grey circle should be drawn in the center of the
label text.

 

What have we done wrong?

 

Thanks

I have done some testing on this on Windows, with MapServer trunk 
(6.1-dev), here are my findings:

- I used Brent's original example styles (from 
http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/GEOMTRANSFORM-labelpnt-location-td6408065.html) 
with Ian's FEATURE layer --> Brent's "Blue Dot" LABELPNT with POSITION 
CC is now correctly placed in the center of the label text (so it seems 
this has been fixed in the code, but I can't find the ticket that says that)
- If I change to POSITION LR (as in Ian's example layer) then I get 
Ian's issue (LABELPNT is placed at the geometry location, not in the 
center of the label text
- but this is now an issue of understanding the developer's logic (from 
that thread SteveL says "Let me ponder this and get back to you. I think 
it makes sense to use the label point geotransform only with position CC 
so that it matches actual shape location.")

That's all I know at this point (ha pun).

Hey Jeff,

   I've been looking into this too (not finished yet).  I'm using v6.0.1 
and can reproduce my original results (blue dot to the left) AND Ian's 
(grey dot coincident with white dot).  Very strange.  My shapefile 
dataset gets reprojected from geographic to UTM, so that may be causing 
the difference.  I need to look into that...

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

I think this is all expected behavior, although the documentation may
be incorrect.

LABELPNT draws a marker on the geographic position the label is
attached to. This corresponds to the center of the label text only if
the label is in position CC.

To draw a label at the center of the label text, another geomtransform
would have to be implemented, named e.g. LABELBBOXCENTROID.

I think that is what is intended but my original test case (using CC ) 
resulted in the LABELPNT rendered on the left side of the labelpoly, see 
http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-dev/attachments/20110526/47c9bc8c/labelpnt-0001.png. 
   I had expected it to be coincident with the yellow circle and green 
cross.

or maybe

GEOMTRANSFORM (centroid([LABELPOLY]))

There might have been a bug in the initial implementation. trying it
out with current trunk gives me the expected result, unless I'm
missing something.

Thomas,

  I tracked it down to the LABELCACHE setting.

LABELCACHE ON  gives the expected results
LABELCACHE OFF  gives my old blue-dot-on-the-left results.

See attached PDFs.

So is it expected that labelpnt generates a point with its center at the middle of the bounding rectangle of the text?

Thanks

Ian

  I tracked it down to the LABELCACHE setting.

LABELCACHE ON  gives the expected results LABELCACHE OFF  gives my old blue-dot-on-the-left results.

Hmmm, I'm curious why the upper left corner of the label polygon shifts 
in your two examples also.

Ian,

   No, there is no ability to do that, unless you use POSITION CC.  
There had been some discussion several months ago to add functions to 
the GEOMTRANSFORM resulting in RFC 72 
(http://www.mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-72.html)

I think something like

GEOMTRANSFORM (getCentroid(labelpoly))

would be a good addition, but I don't have a specific use-case.  What 
were you planning to do the center of the label polygon?

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

It seems to me that we should develop specific use cases that we are 
trying to support.

We have one that this feature was developed for, and that is as Steve L 
mention for labeling Highway Shields were the actual shield may be 
composed of multiple parts that need to be be super imposed relative to 
a label point, if I recall the details of that discussion without 
looking it up again.

Ian, I think the point you are looking for is different. That would be 
the centroid of the label polygon. That point may or may not be 
coincidentally the same as the LABELPNT under some small set of 
configuration parameters but by no means guaranteed to be the same.

I think that these points might be the same is you have a single line of 
text, ie: not wrapped, and POSITION CC and probable ANGLE 0. But I have 
not had time to test.

Brent,

 

Ok, we had been using an earlier version of the mapserver documentation
we had downloaded which had the text below.

 

The latest version now describes the discussed functionally more
closely.

 

We had been looking at using the previous functionally to draw and
rotate a symbol around the label text. Not what we are thinking but this
could be used for something like displaying the wind speed and symbol
rotated for the wind direction using a symbol around the outside.

 

To do this it sounds like a new GEOMTRANSFORM type.

 

Thanks

 

Ian

 

 

STYLE The start of a STYLE object.

Label specific mechanisms of the STYLE object are the GEOMTRANSFORM
options:

GEOMTRANSFORM [labelpnt|labelpoly] Creates geometries that can be used
for styling the label.

* labelpnt generates a point with its center at the middle of the
bounding rectangle of the text.

* labelpoly generates the bounding rectangle for the text, with 1 pixel
of padding added in all directions.

The resulting geometries can be styled using the mechanisms available in
the STYLE object.

New in version 6.0.

Ian,

  No, there is no ability to do that, unless you use POSITION CC.  There
had been some discussion several months ago to add functions to the
GEOMTRANSFORM resulting in RFC 72
(http://www.mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-72.html)

I think something like 

GEOMTRANSFORM (getCentroid(labelpoly))

would be a good addition, but I don't have a specific use-case.  What
were you planning to do the center of the label polygon?



Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Thomas,
 
  I tracked it down to the LABELCACHE setting.
 
LABELCACHE ON  gives the expected results LABELCACHE OFF  gives my old
blue-dot-on-the-left results.
 
See attached PDFs.

Ian,

   Using the "standard" capabilities of a POINT layer wouldn't work?

Steve,

   I agree the new features should be driven from specific use cases, 
but I like to expand designs to handle unforeseen uses (hopefully 
without adding complexity).

So I prefer
     GEOMTRANSFORM (getCentroid(labelpoly))
instead of
     GEOMTRANSFORM LABELBBOXCENTROID


My use cases for expanded GEOMTRANSFORM  (from an earlier email with 
Steve L):
-------------------
The solution of using a STYLE with GEOMTRANSFORM got me thinking of 
using the technique to solve some of the labeling challenges:

2. Place polygon annotation on/inside boundary line 
(http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/1592 point 8.)
     - label the line geometry resulting from  GEOMTRANSFORM 
(buffer([shape], -3)) of the original polygon

5. Place line anno above (or below) when using ANGLE FOLLOW
     - label the line geometry resulting from GEOMTRANSFORM 
(buffer([shape], 5)) of the original line
    - useful for labeling rivers above their geometry

Currently the LABEL object uses the original geometry.  Do you think it 
would be possible to [optionally?] use the GEOMTRANSFORMed geometry?


   Similarly, would it be possible to have the LABEL's convex hull (or a 
buffer the character boxes?) used as a clipping polygons of the layer's 
geometry to address:

8. Erase layer's geometry (but not other layers) under label
    - possible syntax:  GEOMTRANSFORM ( clip( [labelpoly] ) )
   - useful for labeling contours

----------------

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your reply. However, most of my datasources are vector data.
I've created a spatial index on the shapefiles, but with 4 000 000 features
it still takes a long time to load everything.

Should I increase ram, or cpu? or Both? the machines have 8 GB ram atm. I'm
not sure what mapserver needs in heavy configurations.

Besides the page on mapserver.org i dont find much on improving performance
for load intensive systems.

I have been able to reproduce this problem with trunk.
It seems to occur for gap lengths that are longer than
the length of the line.  In that case, the arrows are
rendered for each line segment from the middle of the
line to the end of the line.  Slightly different
behaviour for 6.0 and trunk.

I have filed a ticket (http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4120).

Hi,

Absolutely do not increase RAM, CPU or anything on that line. Instead, install all your data on a small slow laptop and make the system fast on that.

- Analyze your situaltion and think what you want to give for your customers
- Optimise the data for that purpose
- Final step is to acquire as much computing power as needed

Let's assume that you are going to publish your data through WMS.  You said you have 4 000 000 features and it takes a long time to load them. I believe it is slow but fortunately you do not need to do it. The computer screen with 1152x864 resolution has only 955 328 pixels so your full screen view is trying to illustrate on average four features per pixel. If someone orders you to draw a map by hand with a pen and paper in that way you would say it is lunatic and that's correct. The key to draw faster is to draw less.

This link shows a course example of speeding vector renderign by making Mapserver to draw less.
http://www.paikkatietoikkuna.fi/web/en/map-window?zoomLevel=6&coord=291620_6798042&mapLayers=base_35+100+!default!,34+100+&showMarker=false&forceCache=true

There is a scale dependent group layer "Lan Parcel Register 2010".  The group consists or the original data layer and two reduced sets. Original data is shown at scale 1:100000 or bigger (big scale - small number in scale denominator) and it comes from a shapefile with 1.2 million polygons.  In the application the switch to original data happens between named zoom levels "Town" and "Part of town". When zoomed out the data comes from teh first reduced data set (10% sample) and finally from the second reduced data set (1% sample).

In this case I made the ten percent sample and one percent sample by selecting parcel IDs ending to one zero or two zeros, respectively. This way I can broadcast the selected parcels uniformly on the whole map area for giving a hint about the places having parcels.  There is also a maximum limit for the number of parcels which are rendered (MAXFEATURES 10000). I considered that ten thousand parcels per screen is always enough.

For other data some other basis could be better for reducing the number of features to render.  For example it is usually enough to render at maximum a few hundred biggest lakes an a map and that can be done by sorting data to descending order according to area and then applying MAXFEATURES.

Another good way for making Mapserver to draw less and thus draw faster is to generalize the geometries to have less vertises. If you have a hundred pixels on a screen for showing a polygon then it will look just the same for the user with 20 or 20 000 vertises.

The mapfile used in the linked example is attached. It is a little bit modified and does not necesarily work straight ahead but it should show the idea.

Here is my ordered list about making vector rendering fast. Other people can suggest re-ordering or adding new items.  I suppose there is something to think about when using classified layers and selecting classes with classitems and expressions.

1. Check the spatial indexes for shapefiles and in the database
2. Check other database indexes. In 98 percent of cases when user says that database is slow it just does not have a proper index for the query.
3. Draw less - less features, less vertices
==============================
4. Draw simple - multiple styles and advanced labels have some cost
5. Re-project data beforehand instead of on-the-fly

Subject: [mapserver-users] Mapserver performance on apache - heavy load systems

Hi all,

We are planning to launch a major mapserver production site where i'm required to launch many mapserver instances in some form of cluster.

So I basically have some questions related to this:

- Does anyone have good tips on performance for running mapserver on apache?
- Any specific build parameters I should pay attention to?
- Does it run as a native apache module, or is it required to work through cgi?  In which case: will i get better performance by using fastcgi? (we are not using databases but shapefiles).
- Should I consider lighttpd or nginx instead?

- Any other tips related to clustering mapserver instances? :).

Note that we are using live data, so we cannot cache them, except for a minute or so.

Thanks for your time.

Steve,

   I agree the new features should be driven from specific use cases, 
but I like to expand designs to handle unforeseen uses (hopefully 
without adding complexity).

So I prefer
     GEOMTRANSFORM (getCentroid(labelpoly))
instead of
     GEOMTRANSFORM LABELBBOXCENTROID


My use cases for expanded GEOMTRANSFORM  (from an earlier email with 
Steve L):
-------------------
The solution of using a STYLE with GEOMTRANSFORM got me thinking of 
using the technique to solve some of the labeling challenges:

2. Place polygon annotation on/inside boundary line 
(http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/1592 point 8.)
     - label the line geometry resulting from  GEOMTRANSFORM 
(buffer([shape], -3)) of the original polygon

5. Place line anno above (or below) when using ANGLE FOLLOW
     - label the line geometry resulting from GEOMTRANSFORM 
(buffer([shape], 5)) of the original line
    - useful for labeling rivers above their geometry

Currently the LABEL object uses the original geometry.  Do you think it 
would be possible to [optionally?] use the GEOMTRANSFORMed geometry?


   Similarly, would it be possible to have the LABEL's convex hull (or a 
buffer the character boxes?) used as a clipping polygons of the layer's 
geometry to address:

8. Erase layer's geometry (but not other layers) under label
    - possible syntax:  GEOMTRANSFORM ( clip( [labelpoly] ) )
   - useful for labeling contours

----------------

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

1)      Use mode=itemnquery and a regex search, something like qstring=/^value/. You?ll need to account for this in your validation string.

2)      There is an outstanding bug regarding trimlast (see http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4063) but I?m starting to think it?s a problem with single vs. double quotes in tag arguments. Try using double quotes?

3)      There are a number of counter tags that should be available. See http://mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html and search for the [nr] tag and you?ll see the others documented below.

Steve,

Thank you for your assistance.  The code is starting to work.  I just have a couple more questions.

1)  How can I change the query on the html call to use regular expressions, or more particularly make the search a "begins with" search. Using qlayer=myLayer&qitem=MyField&qstring='myValue' obliviously returns only one result, however I would like to search for n items

2) In the JSON template, I have a comma separating each result.  I thought that I could remove the final comma by adding [feature trimlast=','].  The final comment was not removed.  how do I correctly use [feature trimlast=',']

3)  for JSON templates is a variable for "total results"?  If not is there another way to get a record count?

Thanks

1)      Correct. Templates are just a means of presenting the results of a query operation. I?ve used templates to return json successfully.
2)      Again, you need to issue a query. So to find a record in a layer you might do something like:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mapfile&mode=itemquery&qlayer=layer&qitem=item&qstring=value&qformat=jsonformat

This assumes that: for the layer in question you?ve setup a validation pattern for qstring and you?ve defined a output format called ?jsonformat?.

The one limitation I?ve found (and would like to fix) is that there?s no easy way to handle exceptions relative to the output format. For example, if you?re outputting json it would be nice to return errors (if possible, certain ones like mapfile not found can?t be dealt with other than in the default way) as json too.

Let me know if you have questions.

Steve

Subject: [mapserver-users] mimic geonames.org<http://geonames.org> JSON server

Hello,

I recently came across an interesting openlayers application that uses geonames.org for a search functionality.  I would like to be able to use my own gis data on the searches.   I came across http://mapserver.org/trunk/output/template_output.html, which starts to describe how to make a template.  I just have a couple questions.

1)  My understanding is I can use any .map files that have a layer with appropriate fields.  I just need to add another output format so that my .map file references a JSON template, and I can keep the standard image output formats.  Is this correct?

2) How would the html request need to be formatted to search a specific value in a specific layer and return JSON?


Any help and / or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Mark

http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/label.html?highlight=labelpnt

- I have verified with trunk (6.1-dev) on Windows that Brent's report of 
using LABELCACHE OFF with GEOMTRANSFORM LABELPNT causes problems and is 
definitely a bug.  I have created a tiny test case and attached it to a 
new ticket, please everyone involved in this thread add yourself to it

Subject: [mapserver-users] small mapserver admin tool errors
Message-ID: <1323725427952-7087821.post@n2.nabble.com>

Hi. 

Im writing a small admin tool for MapServer for own use in PHP with
MapScript. 

I'm building a mapfile object with ms_newMapObj() and then throwing elements 

into database, forms, etc. 

I've got this problem that when a mapfile has errors (pure simple like 

'IMAGETYPE "pnhgg"' instead 'IMAGETYPE "png"') the mapscript parser throws
an 

error and the whole application stops. 

The thing is that I want the application on to at least tell the user, that
his 

mapfile has errors and for example open a textarea where the user could edit
his 

whole mapfile without throwing it to ms_newMapObj(). 

I tried many things but nothing seems to work. The thing is, it's 

msPostMapParseOutputFormatSetup() which actually crashes and which is used
by 

ms_newMapObj(). I dont have access to msPostMapParseOutputFormatSetup(). 


Sample: 


A PHP Error was encountered 
Severity: Warning

Here is an image and the map file we are using ms4w  3.0.3.

 

We thought the larger grey circle should be drawn in the center of the
label text.

 

What have we done wrong?

 

Thanks

Brent,

 

We copied the example

However we see the GEOMTRANSFORM labelpnt drawing the circle on the
point location not the center of the label text.

 

Thanks

Subject: [mapserver-users] Possibility to read DXF files?
Message-ID: <1323766994241-7089202.post@n2.nabble.com>

Hello, 

i'm trying to read DXF files to represent them on a map. I heard that it
would be possible, but for me it is impossible till now. If it is possible
which Version of Mapserver and GDAL/OGR do I have to have installed?
Actually it is a quite old version with Mapserver 5.2 and GDAL 1.5 (never
change a running system). Might it be possible for such a system? 

My actuall layer definition looks like this (perhaps it has some mistakes
which I don't see):

LAYER
  NAME 'dxf_map'
  CONNECTIONTYPE ogr 
  CONNECTION 'Profil.DXF'
  STATUS on
  TYPE LINE
  STYLEITEM "AUTO" 
  CLASS
   NAME 'try'
  END
  
METADATA
 WMS_SRS 'epsg:900913 epsg:31467'
  WMS_TITLE 'dxf_map'
  WMS_FEATURE_INFO_MIME_TYPE 'text/html'
  WFS_SRS   'epsg:900913 epsg:31467'
  WFS_TITLE 'dxf_map'
END

PROJECTION
	'init=epsg:31467'
END

END #Layer

Best regards
Micha

Works for me.  Confirm your version of GDAL supports DXF by issuing on 
the command line:

ogrinfo --formats

It should show:

  -> "DXF" (read/write)

I've tried and it didn't work so far. Can I see somwhere how looks
MapScriptException to try catching it outside MapScript library?

Steve Lime has narrowed this bug down to the parsing of single quotes in template tags.  

The trimlast functionality will work if you use double quotes on the character to be trimmed.  

e.g. 

This works:  [feature trimlast=","]

This doesn't:  [feature trimlast=',']

I will file a ticket for a change in the documentation at:  http://mapserver.org/output/template_output.html

David.

I can confirm that I experienced it as well.

Hi,

I install and configure FreeTDS and unixodbc to connect to SQL Server 2008. Everything is ok when I request database with tsql. But when I launch "ogrinfo ODBC:user/pwd at DSN", I have this error message :
[unixodbc] [driver manager] data source name not found and no default driver specified
What's the solution, environment variable ... ?

Thanks

The mapfile won't change so much. Basically your layer will have layer
name, type, connection type and then in connection param something
like

"MSSQL:dsn=MY_DSN;server=(local);database=DBNAME_HERE;tables=myscheme.mytable;uid=USER_HERE;pwd=PWD_HERE"
mytable

Check OGR docs for more info http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_mssqlspatial.html

You might need freetds + unixodbc too

http://www.sommarskog.se/mssqlperl/unix.html
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.db.tds.freetds/13292

In advance I can tell what I got: I gave up using default
geometry/spatial types/functions from SQL 2008 - to slow, no official
docs is available.

To speed it up, I installed MsSqlSpatial lib (originally developed for
SQL 2005 but also works for 2008) on SQL 2008 database + ODBC OGR
driver on MapServer. And then spatial SQL speed gone 10-15 times over
standard ms sql 2008 types

Sounds like no datasource was defined.

At windows boxes normally we use ODBC system manager to do that tasks.

Using Linux probably config files will be neessary. Check unixODBC docs

Subject: [mapserver-users] Raster rendering performance and zoom levels
Message-ID: <D12323219CEDB24AA8FAE53FF3F59FB40319750B@be28.exg3.exghost.com>

 

We have an application which is using php  mapscript to render maps at a
number of different zoom levels, these zoom levels can be fixed and the
maps are centered on a specific location.

 

So we calculate the extent based on the zoom level and the current
required center lat/long.

 

The raster imagery we are using is approx. the same resolution as the
max zoom (smallest extent) and in this case the map rendering is the
fastest.

 

As we zoom out and the extent increases the map rendering is slower, we
are assuming this is because the imagery is being resized which is
processor/memory intensive.

 

Now the question,  how do we create imagery sets for each zoom level so
that they are the required resolution and no re-sizing is required?

 

We are using mapserver without a client to generate the images on a
server. 

 

I hope this makes sense.

 

Thanks

 

Ian

Ian,

The normal approach to slow rendering at larger scales
is to build pyramids/overviews on large images.  This
can generally be accomplished something like:

  gdaladdo big.tif 2 4 8 16 32 64 128

The gdaladdo command should work on virtually all
GDAL supported raster formats.  There are also things you
could do to produce very specific overviews for the particular
rendering resolutions you want to produce.  But I'd suggest
first trying the above generic solution and see if it is
sufficient for your needs.  Some gdaladdo docs are available
at:

  http://www.gdal.org/gdaladdo.html

Best regards,

We have added the overviews and they help but as we are able to fix the zoom levels we are hoping to go a step further.

so that is what I use

./configure --with-php=/usr/include

  configure come's back and says it can't find them in /usr/include ...

Frank,

We can test again tomorrow with and without the overviews.

I had assumed as the overviews would be closer to what we needed but not the correct resolution it would reduce the image resizing but not eliminate it.

The 4 images are the NASA Blue Marble 1km imagery split into 4 files.

Thanks

Ian

Ian,

Hmm, four images shouldn't be an issue.  If overviews are built and being used rendering should not be noticably slower at different resolutions.  Can you confirm that the overviews exist with gdalinfo?

Try with just --with-php=/usr

Sometimes configure scripts tack on the /include, /lib etc

Don't know if that will help, but worth a shot.

Message-ID: <CAMLqNqKxkY_qVYb0P=WysLGZPWEWQdBovt5DKfFisf7zL60W_w@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I am running into some trouble getting openlayers to render a map (with
maptiles) using a locally installed mapserver to serve the mapfile to
openlayers.

Here's the complete description of my problem -
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/17917/openlayers-mapserver-controlling-tiles

I am not exactly sure whether I am missing some config parameters in my
mapfile or if I am actually not providing the right js params in my
javascript/openlayers code.

Any advice pointing me in the right direction will be very much appreciated!

Try this, it works in most cases

1- Fisrt enable internal tiling with the command 

gdal_translate -co "TILED=YES" original.tif tiled.tif 

2-than add overviews 

gdaladdo -r average 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 

3-create a tileindex 

gdaltindex myindex.shp *.tif 

4-than create a spatial index 

shptree myindex.shp 

and finally add the layer to the map 

LAYER 
  NAME myorthos 
  TYPE RASTER 
  DUMP TRUE 
  STATUS ON 
  TILEINDEX ../data/myindex

Subject: [mapserver-users] Why failed to hard wrap labels?
Message-ID: <CACYZH8dDtLf8=ypKbsSekjGHXKM1HKbi40EKTSY4ZMJhT1Wr8A@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,


I have met a weird situation while using hard wraps on labels. I
haven't tried on English labels, the same wrapping setting yields
different results when applied to Chinese labels. It's not the first
time i have met this problem, nor the sending mail here. This time I
have made a test case.

Attached is a map file for testing, and its output (cropped). In the
output image, you can see the there is a single-line label at the
upper left corner, while another wrapped label at the lower right.
Both labels are set to hard wrapping on the fourth character
(MAXLENGTH -4). However, only the longer one seems wrapped correctly.

Since the font displaying is not important here, i have not attached
the font used here.

Below are two more strings for testing, one can just replace the TEXT
with them. In case anyone curious enough, the first 6 characters in
the second string are exactly the same as the first string.
"??????"
"?????? (????)"

Hi,

I think the OGR MSSQL Spatial driver would be a better choice than OGR ODBC
to connect to MS SQL Server 2008. You may however specify the driver in the
connection string explicitly. The default is driver={SQL Server} which may
not be sufficient in non Windows environments. You may probably use:

"MSSQL:driver=FreeTDS;..."

You may also require to use the latest SVN (trunk or branch-1-8) in order
to get it working.

Best regards,

Tamas

The intention was for the grey circle to be drawn at the computed label point. The most common use case is drawing a marker with associated text and you don't want them to overlap. If you do want them to overlap, use case would be labeling a highway shield then you must use POSITION CC.

Here is an image and the map file we are using ms4w  3.0.3.



We thought the larger grey circle should be drawn in the center of the label text.



What have we done wrong?



Thanks

Brent,



We copied the example

http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/GEOMTRANSFORM-labelpnt-location-t

d6408065.html.



However we see the GEOMTRANSFORM labelpnt drawing the circle on the point location not the center of the label text.



Thanks

 Hello,

 I have searched but have not found a clear way to use savequery and 
 queryfiles with ms > 5.6.
 I have seen a few posts regarding the change in the format w/ 5.6x but 
 I have not understood how to implement it.
 My app/queryfiles/savequery works with ms 5.3 but not w/ 5.6.3 on linux 
 from the fwtools distro.

 Using postgis layers...
 I posted in the past regarding queryfiles with ms cgi and was able to 
 get everything running fine w/ yourhelp (S. Lime actually)
 I am sorry if this has been discussed but I have not been able to find 
 a solution..

 regards,
 nikos

Subject: [mapserver-users] Specify resolution (or pixel size) in
	WMS	requests
Message-ID: <4e2df992bb8902871d2f3b7357e5a51e.squirrel@troubadix.wheregroup.com>

Hello,

we tried the parameter MAP.RESOLUTION AND MAP.DEFRESOLUTION with
MapServer 6.0.1 and made the following observations.

We tested with RESOLUTION=288&MAP.DEFRESOLUTION=72

The size of the symbols and textes was not like we expected. They were
often too small.

We tested with and without the parameter SYMBOLSCALEDENOM

1.) without SYMBOLSCALEDENOM (none scaled, fix size) ok are:

    * lines (not scaled) are dispayed correct (ok)
    * outlines (not scaled) of polygones are dispayed correct (ok).
    * symbols (not scaled) are displayed correct (ok).
    * textes (not scaled) are displayed correct (ok).We tested not scaled
texts without SYMBOLSCALEDENOM: It's displayed different weather
MINSIZE/MAXSIZE is existing or not.


2.) with SYMBOLSCALEDENOM

NOT ok:

    * Scaled symbols are displayed incorrect - too small.
    * Scaled lines are dispayed incorrect - too small.
    * scaled outlines of polygones are dispayed incorrect.
    * Scaled text are dispayed incorrect - too small.

For us it would be good to get this problem solved, as at the moment we
generate a copy of the mapfile for the print with symbol- and labelsize
multiplyed with factor 4. It would be charming to solve the print with one
mapfile. We could do testing and maybe I could look for sponsoring too.

Is there someone else interested to solve this? Is there a ticket already?

Subject: [mapserver-users] assign layer to multiple groups
Message-ID: <DC572A5EFD543A478152A99985056F8125F49FCF37@fcdcex4.co.franklin.oh.us>

Good afternoon,

Is it possible to assign a mapserver layer to multiple groups? What I'm trying to do is create a combined "initial" group of several layers that I want rendered all at once, but I also want the layers classified into separate groups for futher map requests... In essence, I want to group my layers in multiple ways. (This would currently be on MapServer 5.6)

Thanks for the help.

Hi,

Could you possible create a couple of images showing what is the current situation and how would you like the image to look like, together with corresponding parts of mapfile and requests you have used?

Hello,

we tried the parameter MAP.RESOLUTION AND MAP.DEFRESOLUTION with
MapServer 6.0.1 and made the following observations.

We tested with RESOLUTION=288&MAP.DEFRESOLUTION=72

The size of the symbols and textes was not like we expected. They were
often too small.

We tested with and without the parameter SYMBOLSCALEDENOM

1.) without SYMBOLSCALEDENOM (none scaled, fix size) ok are:

    * lines (not scaled) are dispayed correct (ok)
    * outlines (not scaled) of polygones are dispayed correct (ok).
    * symbols (not scaled) are displayed correct (ok).
    * textes (not scaled) are displayed correct (ok).We tested not scaled
texts without SYMBOLSCALEDENOM: It's displayed different weather
MINSIZE/MAXSIZE is existing or not.


2.) with SYMBOLSCALEDENOM

NOT ok:

    * Scaled symbols are displayed incorrect - too small.
    * Scaled lines are dispayed incorrect - too small.
    * scaled outlines of polygones are dispayed incorrect.
    * Scaled text are dispayed incorrect - too small.

For us it would be good to get this problem solved, as at the moment we
generate a copy of the mapfile for the print with symbol- and labelsize
multiplyed with factor 4. It would be charming to solve the print with one
mapfile. We could do testing and maybe I could look for sponsoring too.

Is there someone else interested to solve this? Is there a ticket already?

Subject: [mapserver-users] mapserver compiled with jpeg v7 and GDAL with
	internal JPEG results in core dumps (SIGSEGV)
Message-ID: <8B319E5A30FF4A48BE7EEAAF609DB2330869B567@COMAIL01.digitalglobe.com>

I've been running down a mapserver core dump for most of the day. It
appears that when I compile GDAL 1.8.1 with it's internal JPEG library
and mapserver links to libjpeg.so.7 BAD things happen.

 

I tried compiling mapserver with -without-jpeg but configure errors out:

 

configure: checking whether we should include JPEG support...

configure: error: "Could not find jpeglib.h or
libjpeg.a/libjpeg.so/libjpeg.dylib in
/dg/local/apps/osgeo_pack/source/build/mapserver-6.0.1/no."

 

It appears that when linking mapserver GDAL's internal version of
jpeg_CreateDecompress is not used during a GDALOpenShared. Instead the
libjpeg linked to mapserver is used which in this case is jpeg 7.

 

GDAL dies horribly.

 

Not sure what to do about this. Going to think about it overnight.

You can not safely mix libraries of different versions. There's absolutely no 
guarantee that GDAL will use the internal libjpeg if an application links to 
GDAL and another version of libjpeg. The best is to rebuild GDAL with external 
libjpeg support, so that both GDAL and mapserver use the same version of 
libjpeg.

Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A6305EE5C@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

It seems that Mapserver WFS fails if the PostGIS source table has capitalised characters in the name. For example with table named Natura2000_Suomi_2010 the DescibeFeatureType fails and error suggests that Mapserver is usin table name 
"natura2000_suomi_2010" in the query instead.

[Thu Dec 15 07:22:38 2011].109270 msPostGISLayerGetItems(): Query error. Error (ERROR:  relation "natura2000_suomi_2010" does not exist
LINE 1: select * from Natura2000_Suomi_2010 where false limit 0

My Mapserver version is 6.0.1 on Ubuntu Linux.

Message-ID: <CAPxpS=YUNVtXZOz49Fz+OSan2v+guZ=C3QioS-rwoqmqtCmzSQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

First of all I would like to say that MapServer developers have done great
job integrating libcairo support in MapServer 6, PDF output quality is
superb!

I wish to publish my maps from MapServer as PDF but I have the following
problem: I don't know if and how it is possible to template them! I would
like to add to my PDF files such basic things as title, scalebar and
legend. Ideally, I would like to template PDFs in similar fashion
as templating custom kml, xml outputs.

I have reviewed MapServer documentation and searched mailing lists but did
not find any solution. Any tips, tricks, workarounds from users and hackers
would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,

Lasma

Jukka,

Does it work if you quote the name? In Oracle, if you have mixed case
table names, then those table names have to be quoted.

Hi,

Well, this works really:
  DATA 'the_geom from "mml_AVI1_l" using unique gid using srid=3067'

There must by outer single quetes and inner double ones. But this has a funny side effect. GetFeatures are working now both with &typeName=mml_AVI1_l and &typeName=mml_avi1_l.  Usually in OWS services the values in the key/value pairs are case sensitive.

Single quotes inside double ones do not work because they are directly included in the SQL . The following definition
DATA "the_geom from 'mml_AVI1_l' using unique gid using srid=3067"
leads to SQL query containing 
SELECT ... from 'mml_AVI1_l' ...

Double quote naturally breaks the DATA line,

I have renamed my  tables to use only undercase but direct import of shapefiles can easily create mixed case table names.

A related question, does WFS schema officially accept uppercase letters in typeNames?  It is different thing than the real names of database tables but I am mostly using the the table names also as typeNames. The WFS clients which I am using have not complained about mixed case names. TinyOWS accepts those too.

Although Mike already answered this:

I just went through a client's PG database with mixed-case fieldnames, 
having to do WFS queries, and I can tell you that I always always always 
make sure the query works through ogrinfo first (and yes I had to do 
many crazy single/double quotes to make these queries work).  Once I 
have a working syntax through the ogrinfo utility (and its -sql switch) 
then I port that into the MapServer mapfile.

Short answer: always use ogrinfo first (with its -sql switch to 
duplicate the query).

Hi all,

we met a bug related to axis order in WFS 1.1.0 as described here:

http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4118

Have anybody had a time already to check it?

Thanks a lot,

I agree. Problem here is I now have to downgrade jpeg because GDAL will only work with v62.

Since I have a whole suite of image processing utilities I will have to rebuild my entire runtime.





You can not safely mix libraries of different versions. There's absolutely no 
guarantee that GDAL will use the internal libjpeg if an application links to 
GDAL and another version of libjpeg. The best is to rebuild GDAL with external 
libjpeg support, so that both GDAL and mapserver use the same version of 
libjpeg.

One more thing. Why doesn't --without-jpeg work for configuration. Since I use GDAL for all my I/O I would thing I don't even need JPEG compiled in to mapserver nor any other format for that matter.

Hi, 


I think the OGR MSSQL Spatial driver would be a better choice than OGR ODBC to connect to MS SQL Server 2008. You may however specify the driver in the connection string explicitly. The default is driver={SQL Server} which may not be sufficient in non Windows environments. You may probably use: 


"MSSQL:driver=FreeTDS;..." 


You may also require to use the latest SVN (trunk or branch-1-8) in order to get it working. 


Best regards, 


Tamas

Hi, 

I install and configure FreeTDS and unixodbc to connect to SQL Server 2008. Everything is ok when I request database with tsql. But when I launch "ogrinfo ODBC:user/pwd at DSN", I have this error message : 
[unixodbc] [driver manager] data source name not found and no default driver specified 
What's the solution, environment variable ... ?

The mapfile won't change so much. Basically your layer will have layer 
name, type, connection type and then in connection param something 
like 

"MSSQL:dsn=MY_DSN;server=(local);database=DBNAME_HERE;tables=myscheme.mytable;uid=USER_HERE;pwd=PWD_HERE" 
mytable 

Check OGR docs for more info http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_mssqlspatial.html 

You might need freetds + unixodbc too 

http://www.sommarskog.se/mssqlperl/unix.html 
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.db.tds.freetds/13292 

In advance I can tell what I got: I gave up using default 
geometry/spatial types/functions from SQL 2008 - to slow, no official 
docs is available. 

To speed it up, I installed MsSqlSpatial lib (originally developed for 
SQL 2005 but also works for 2008) on SQL 2008 database + ODBC OGR 
driver on MapServer. And then spatial SQL speed gone 10-15 times over 
standard ms sql 2008 types

I guess I don't follow your question. While the format of the file changed
the method to use it hasn't. Can you be more specific?

Unfortunately no. You might be able to do it on the client side depending on what tool you're using. That is, manage a list of layers as a delimited string (layer1,layer1,layer3) and then pass that list depending on need.

Good afternoon,

Is it possible to assign a mapserver layer to multiple groups? What I'm trying to do is create a combined "initial" group of several layers that I want rendered all at once, but I also want the layers classified into separate groups for futher map requests... In essence, I want to group my layers in multiple ways. (This would currently be on MapServer 5.6)

Thanks for the help.

Hum, did you check the include line when the jpeg driver is compiled ? I guess 
there must be in it the path to the include files of the "old" libjpeg version 
(perhaps in /usr/include). Looking at GDAL makefiles, they make sure to not 
include the internal libjpeg header if GDAL is configured for external libjpeg 
build, so I don't think the issue comes from here. But if you have libjpeg 6.2 
headers in /usr/include and libjpeg 7 headers in /usr/local/include, a big 
mess could happen.

Message-ID: <0B6D7F516315594DBEFE58178D91BD320202688A3879@exchangemm.mm.fr>

Hi,

I'm applying styles to my list of layers inside a WMS request, using the classgroup/class/group system in the mapfile.

It works fine when no "tile mode" is used (bbox instead) :
If I launch this request
http://mapserver/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=mymapfile.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=layer1&STYLES=style2&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&bbox=-35,10,52,15&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600
style2 is applied to layer1

But it doesn't work if the request uses tile mode :
http://mapserver/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=mymapfile.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=layer1&STYLES=style2&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&tile=0+0+0&tilemode=gmap&mode=tile&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600
style2 is not applied (default style is applied)

Is there a way to apply styles in tile mode ?

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

I can't help you but I'll add that specifying an output format is useless,
at least with GMAP tile-mode. Whatever you ask for, you'll receive png. I
assumed it was an intended behaviour and supposed googleMap could only use
png as an input. Be it the case or not, it would be nice if we could
specify the format...

Guillaume Loiselle

P.S. : message to developers :
I think that the tile-mode should only be used as an alternative way to
determine the bbox. Other options should not be limited when tile-mode is
used. More importantly, we should not be obliged to use a tile-mode way of
requesting to use tile_map_edge_buffer.

You may disagree and have good programming design reasons to do so. I just
wanted to give a user's point of view.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Sanitary Sewer Flow Direction Line Symbol

Is it possible to create a line symbol as shown in the picture below,
specifically the black arrow, one triangle for each line segment at the
downstream point?  Please ignore the circles, they are manhole points in a
separate shapefile. 

Thanks,

Thanks, but it's not quite right, yet.  The arrow is offset (above and below)
from the line.  How would I get it centered on the line?

Symbol
	Name 'flow'
	Type VECTOR
	FILLED TRUE
	Points
		1 1.5
		0 2
		0 1
		1 1.5
	END
END

Nikos -

Did you create your query files with the same version of MapServer as
you are truing to read it with?

Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A6305F24B@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

I wonder if anybody has managed to make the OGR output to work? For me all my trials have stopped to an error that seems to mean that Mapserver can't write out a temporary file. The same happens both on Windows and Linux.

I hope that somebody else would repeat the test and I have tried to make it pretty easy for MS4W users. It should be enough to unzip the following file into a directory \MS4W\map and then start running my WFS request examples

Test data (mapfile and a small shapefile)

multiple workarounds:
- trunk has ANCHORPOINT, which can be used for that.
- use a truetype symbol
- define a vector symbol that starts at (0,0)

Jukka,

Are the OGR Output formats defined as STORAGE=filesystem? That is the
error I've had.

There is a ticket for this. http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4085

On my linux box, I'm using GDAL 1,9 r12670 and not having a problem so I
suspect this is a GDAL issue (or a GDAL/MapServer issue).

I'll try narrowing down on which version of GDAL this started occurring.

Mike

Hi,

STORAGE=filesystem, yes, and I am following the ticket. Just wanted to make it easier to start investigating the problem. Other storage alternatives did not work for me any better on Linux but I have not tried them on Windows. I think that filesystem is the one which should work for all drivers. What is odd is that I have managed to get one valid zipped shapefile from Linux server but after that success I have been receiving just empty zips.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Cannot get OGR output to work

Actually, on most drivers you can use STORAGE=memory and it does work.

The only driver I've need to use STORAGE=filesystem is FileGDB.

I have my shapfile format defined as follows

OUTPUTFORMAT
  NAME "Shapefile"
  DRIVER "OGR/ESRI Shapefile"
  FORMATOPTION "STORAGE=memory"
  FORMATOPTION "FORM=zip"
  FORMATOPTION "FILENAME=%outfile%.zip"
 END

Thomas,

Not sure if the trunk version will work in my GeoMoose application.  The second option produced a better result but the font was centered on the point, not exactly what I am after.  The third option, I defined the symbol starting at 0,0 and still was offset.

I am using MS 5.6.6.

Thanks, 

Ed

without trunk anchorpoint, the symbol will always be centered on the
last point of the line, that's why we added anchorpoint. So you can
must stick with the current version and use a symbol that looks ok
when centered on the last point, or upgrade.

Subject: [mapserver-users] WFS srsName does not work with PostGIS layers
Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A6305F2DC@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

Using srsName for reprojecting the resultset of WFS 1.1.0 GetFeature works OK when I use shapefiles as datasource. However, it I use PostGIS as datasource Mapserver does not find any features with a non-native srsName.
It is not a wonder because using srsName is changing the data window. 

Without srsName, means that the native srsName EPSG:3067 is used

[Fri Dec 16 19:31:25 2011].351479 msPostGISLayerWhichShapes query: select "gid",,encode(ST_AsBinary(ST_Force_2D("the_geom"),'NDR'),'hex') as geom,"gid" from municipalities where the_geom && GeomFromText('POLYGON((-25000000 -25000000,-25000000 25000000,25000000 25000000,25000000 -25000000,-25000000 -25000000))',3067) limit 2

With srsName=EPSG:4326.  Notice, that the data window polygon is modified.  However, it should not. The query from the PostGIS should remain the same because just the output should be converted into EPSG:4326.

Message-ID: <52692.91.97.223.12.1324132409.squirrel@myuos.uni-osnabrueck.de>

Hello,

I'm testing a WFS-Layer in OpenLayers.  So first of all I set up a WFS in
epsg:4326. You can see the mapfile below...
Now I want to put his WFS into a OpenLayers project. Here we've got a
simple OpenStreetMap WMS, also in epsg:4326. But when I'm testing my
OpenLayers application (code below), I don't see my WFS layer.

So I'm using firebug and I can see that OpenLayers tries the following
request:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/mapserverII/wms_wfs/wfs_ogc/wfs_server_4326.map&TYPENAME=Testdatenlayer&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&SRS=EPSG%3A4326&BBOX=3.60546875,50.802734375,12.39453125,55.197265625

When I try this request in Firefox, I'm getting the following result:

<wfs:FeatureCollection xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs
http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.0.0/WFS-basic.xsd                        
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/mapserver
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/mapserverII/wms_wfs/wfs_ogc/wfs_server_4326.map&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=DescribeFeatureType&TYPENAME=Testdatenlayer&OUTPUTFORMAT=XMLSCHEMA"><gml:boundedBy><gml:null>missing</gml:null></gml:boundedBy></wfs:FeatureCollection>


When I'm cutting the BBOX parameter like this

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/mapserverII/wms_wfs/wfs_ogc/wfs_server_4326.map&TYPENAME=Testdatenlayer&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&SRS=EPSG%3A4326

I can see a list of my features:
...
<gml:boundedBy><gml:Box
srsName="EPSG:4326"><gml:coordinates>3449790.000000,5891640.000000
3470274.000000,5940811.000000</gml:coordinates></gml:Box></gml:boundedBy><gml:featureMember><ms:Testdatenlayer
fid="Testdatenlayer.1"><gml:boundedBy><gml:Box
srsName="EPSG:4326"><gml:coordinates>3463543.000000,5900876.000000
3463543.000000,5900876.00000
...

It seems to be a projection problem, but I don't know where...
So now I want to ask if there are any problems with my mapfile or if I
made another mistake?

Thanking you in anticipation,

D. Stroeer

Your data is not in projection epsg:4326 as indicated by

3463543.000000,5900876.00000



You need to find out what projection your data is in and then set that
projection in the mapfile layer


LAYER
        PROJECTION
          'init=epsg:4326'   <-------  change this value to the epsg code
of your data
        END
        SYMBOLSCALE 50000
        NAME         'Testdatenlayer'



MapServer will then be able to reproject your data on the fly to
epsg:4326, which is the output projection of your mapfile.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Color values from attribute using OracleSpatial
Message-ID: <CAL_A4ETfzhY_QY97sThXFYkTWPS7svSUzxuHGpCb_E2mW80oiQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
my problem when using attributes for color values with OracleSpatial:
RGB color values are defined as a string like '0 128 211' in a column named
'RGBCOLOR'.
The map file looks like
  ...
 STYLE
       COLOR [RGBCOLOR]
  ...
Trying this with Shape+dbf files the coloring of the shapes works properly,
but when the data is in OracleSpatial and I reference to the 'RGBCOLOR'
column in the same way I receive:
OracleSpatial error. Error: ORA-00904: "RGBCOLOR": invalid identifier

Thanks for any suggestions!

Subject: [mapserver-users] Get MAP file CLASSes with no data - empty
Message-ID: <1324157711231-7104765.post@n2.nabble.com>

I would like to get in PHP/Python environment the list of CLASSes which do
not target any data. The situation is like this.

1) I am interested only in vector data
2) I have mapfile and running mapserver
3) There is LAYER with many CLASSes which are defined by EXPRESSION in
mapfile

Any suggestion how get classes with no data?

Thanks Michal

M?rton,

You can use DEBUG mode (DEBUG 3 or higher on the LAYER) to see  in your error log the exact query that MapServer is generating. The fact that you are seeing an ORA-00904 for RGBCOLOR as an invalid identifier indicates that the column request is being passed to Oracle but that your column in your table must have a different name.

You also don't specify your version.

I have tested this on MapServer 6 and an Oracle Spatial connection and not had any issue.

Thanks, Mike,

The detailed log was useful.

Because of multiple geometry types stored in a single table I already had a
selection in my DATA line:
DATA 'GEOMETRY FROM (select c.GEOMETRY from [table] c where
c.GEOMETRY.GET_GTYPE()=3) ...

My problem was solved when I inserted 'c.RGBCOLOR, ' before c.GEOMETRY

Hi all,

I found a solution, actually quite simple: Adding all the parameters
manually.

           $oRequest = new OWSRequestObj();
	foreach ($_REQUEST as $k=>$v) {
	    $oRequest->setParameter($k, utf8_decode($v));
	}
	ms_ioinstallstdouttobuffer();
	$oMap->owsdispatch($oRequest);
	$strContType = ms_iostripstdoutbuffercontenttype();
	if ($strContType == 'image/png') {
		header('Content-type: image/png');
	}
	
	if($_REQUEST['encode']) {
		echo utf8_encode(ms_iogetstdoutbufferstring());
	} else {
		ms_iogetStdoutBufferBytes();
	}
	ms_ioresethandlers();

Hope this helps other people with the same problem :)

Hawk

 Hi Richard,

 Yes, the queryfiles are created/read with their respective versions, 
 and actually, for kicks, I tried using a 5.3 queryfile on 5.7 and MS 
 correctly complained "Hmm, this does not look a queryfile..."

 regards,

 nikos

No! you have not supplied enough details for anyone to help you.
What makes you think it is the same problem and not a different problem 
with a similar symptom?
What does you mapfile look like?
What does you mapserver request look like?
Is it on a publicly accessible IP address?

Thanks,

Message-ID: <4EEF11CF.3060404@geomatika.fr>

Hello everybody,

i have some problems to display multilinestring (PostGIS) with mapserver 
on linux box (debian). In fact They don't display.

In my table i have a column wkb_geometry (Multilinestring ) which don't 
display.

So i have computed a column the_geom and updated it using postgis 
geometryn(wkb_geometry,1) to get some linestrings.
With the_geom (linestring), the lines are well computed but not with 
wkb_geometry (multilinestrings).

Multilinestring seem to correctly dysplay with osgeo4w for windows..

What can be the issue?

Thanks,
fx

Message-ID: <1324318755057-7109187.post@n2.nabble.com>

Hello everyone, 

Hopefully, a quick question...a no or (better) a yes with an idea where to
find some documentation would be splendid.

Using mode=map and passing the URL to a WMC in the context parameter, I am
receiving the image I expect...but not quite the one I want. I'd like to be
able to limit the extents of a given WMS in the WMC. I don't see anything
within the spec that would allow me to define that at the LAYER level, so I
was wondering if there are any Mapserver-specific extensions to the <Layer>
<Extension> tag that might allow this type of information to be included and
used. Something like OpenLayers' <ol:maxExtent>...?

Cheers,
jtm

Do you mean classes with no representation in some map draw? There's no easy way. You'd
either 1) have to hack the source and extend the classObj to track precence/absence or
2) do your drawing at the shape level and assign (and presumably track) class membership
in MapScript.

I would like to get in PHP/Python environment the list of CLASSes which do
not target any data. The situation is like this.

1) I am interested only in vector data
2) I have mapfile and running mapserver
3) There is LAYER with many CLASSes which are defined by EXPRESSION in
mapfile

Any suggestion how get classes with no data?

Thanks Michal

Hi,

I try to implement substitution variable with mapserver 6. I add in URL "&attribute=value" and the mapfile contains :

...

But when I launch the URL "http://.....mapserv.exe?map=....&attribute=value", I have a error because mapserver can't load data from D:\tmp\%attribute%\data.shp. Why the substitution doesn't work ? Is there a configuration to add in Apache, in mapfile to success ?

Thanks

Scott,

I recently created a small test package for variable substitution, that 
contains a small working mapfile: 
http://labs.gatewaygeomatics.com/dl/ogr-outputformat.zip You could check 
that mapfile to see the syntax.  Also, a full discussion is in the 
related ticket: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3751

I wish everyone a merry Christmas.

Pay particular attention to the validation block... You *must* set that up or no substitution will be done.

Hi

We are using Mapserver 6.0.1 on linux with a postgis database.
We have some wfs services that used to work correctly in earlier versions of mapserver.

In version 6, we observed the following: when people use a wfs filter on a string field with a numeric value <PropertyIsEqualTo><PropertyName>code_commu</PropertyName><Literal>105</Literal></PropertyIsEqualTo>, mapserver will generate a sql statement without quotes assuming that the Literal is an Integer.

To fix this i have to use the "gml_types" "auto" directive.

now the filter works but it alters the describefeature xml document by setting the attribute types to 'Character'. This however does not seem to be valid xml, at least my client (FME) does not to seem to like this type declarations, telling me that they are not valid...

Is there another way to fix the filter issue?

There is a similar problem with the PropertyIsLike operator but I could not make it work at allin version 6.0.1

Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards
Jeff

Michal

I hope I understood your question correctly...:

the following code returns all class indexes for the provided layer and 
full map extent that appear in the data.

$me = $map->extent;
$layer->open();
$status = $layer->whichShapes($me);
$classWithData = array();
while ($shape = $layer->nextShape()) {
     $shpIdx = $shape->index;
     $clsIdx = $layer->getClassIndex($shape);
     if (!in_array($clsIdx, $classWithData) && $clsIdx >= 0) {
         $classWithData[] = $clsIdx;
     }
}
$layer->close();

You could use this to get first all classes *with* data and then 
calculate the difference of this array with the array of total classes. 
The resulting array should contain the classes that are *not represented 
in the data* , like

$allClasses = range(0, $layer->numclasses-1);
$noDataList = array_diff($allClasses, $classWithData);
print_r($noDataList);


Note however that this works like listed above only for layers that have 
the same projection as the map. If both projections are different then 
the call of "$layer->nextShape()" causes a segmentation fault (in both 
MS 5.6 and 6). In this case you need to re-project the layer beforehand 
to the projection of the map, then it should work.

Hello everyone,

I've come back to this problem I submitted to the forum last month re: my
PointSymbolizer's fill-opacity, stroke-opacity and stroke-width being
ignored. I'm no further ahead, so I thought I'd update what I've read and
tried, just to see if that jogs anyone's thoughts in terms of some issue
related to this that I'm not aware of.

I am fairly certain this functionality is supported, given what I read in
the "SLD implementation - fill-opacity" post thread
(http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/SLD-implementation-fill-opacity-td1971368.html)
from 2008. 

I've worked through the StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd as best I can and believe
my definition is correct syntactically. I also tried creating a Polygon
layer and applying a similarly-defined PolygonSymbolizer SLD to the one I am
using for the PointSymbolizer to see if my syntax was correct (as much as I
could given the two different types of data). This, too, suggests it is
fine. When using the PolygonSymbolizer definition below, the fill-opacity
and stroke-width values are applied in the output. Granted, the the
stroke-opacity is still not but at least something worked that doesn't with
the PointSymbolizer.


I'm including an attachment that shows the results of using the two SLDs
included in this thread (my PointSymbolizer and the PolygonSymbolizer
above). The definitions are as close to the same as I can make them but, as
you can see, the output is not. In the Point symbology, the fill-opacity
(0.4), stroke-opacity (0.6) and stroke-width (10.0) are being ignored; and,
in the Polygon symbology, the stroke-opacity (0.6) is being ignored but the
fill-opacity (0.4) and stoke-width (10.0) are being correctly applied.

http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/file/n7110031/Point_vs._Polygon.png 


Could there be an issue with my Mapfile definition? In case it matters, here
is my OUTPUTFORMAT definition for the Point and Polygon layers used above
and the Point layer definition:


I really can't imagine what else to try...Is it possible this stuff is
broken in 6.0.1? 

Cheers,
jtm

Hello everyone,

I have a label problem in MapServer 6.0.1
I cannot get corrct label image in annotation layer with symbol,label
and labelpoly - backgound color.(see attached image label_error.jpg)

Layer definition in mapfile as follows.
LAYER
  NAME "RND"
  DATA "Road/road_rnd_13.shp"
  STATUS DEFAULT
  TYPE ANNOTATION
  PROJECTION "init=epsg:4612" END
  MAXSCALE 50000
  LABELITEM "NAME_KANJI"
  CLASSITEM "SIGNAL_F"

  CLASS NAME "RND" EXPRESSION "1"
   STYLE SYMBOL "027" END 
   LABEL PRIORITY 6 TYPE TRUETYPE POSITION AUTO OFFSET -5 -5 MINDISTANCE 50 PARTIALS FALSE FONT gothic COLOR 255 255 255 SIZE 8 ENCODING SJIS STYLE GEOMTRANSFORM 'labelpoly' COLOR 0 85 170 END END
  END

I make a patch for this problem. 
Then I can get correct label image(attached image label_patched.jpg).
But this patch is not testing for many cases.

regaeds,

makoto.

Hello everyone,

I have a lengend problem in MapServer 6.0.1
The legned icon image is strange in annotation label layer.
see attached image legend_error.jpg
I use OFFSET in label object. 
and the Character "Az" is shifted by OFFSET in legend image.

I make a patch for this problem. 
see attached image legnd_patched.jpg.

regards,

makoto.

My mapfile generates tile which is empty (white).

My mapfile contains a code which is beneath:

MAP

  DRIVER "GD/PNG"
  MIMETYPE "image/png"
  TRANSPARENT ON
  IMAGEMODE RGB
  EXTENSION "png"

	IMAGEPATH "/path/"
	IMAGEURL "validURL"
  END

  QUERYMAP
  SIZE 256 256

			PROJECTION
				"init=epsg:4326"

			TYPE LINE
			STATUS ON
			DATA "waterways" 
			CLASS
				NAME "test"
				OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
			END
	
	END #end of layer
 END
END


My shapefiles are in folder shapes and there are 3 files:
waterways.shp
waterways.shx
waterways.dbf

Could you help?

What units are in your shapefile?  The thing that jumps out at me, is your
units is in Meters.  So the extent gives about at 15x8m view.  That's
pretty small.
Maybe comment out the  UNITS METERS part just to see how it goes.

Judging by your e-mail address you might want to check the extent.  That extent appears to be valid for part of the Midwest USA.

P.S.  I don't know if extent matters.

Up !
Any hint on this issue ??

Below are exactly the 2 same map's requests : one with bbox, one with tile.
But the 2 output displays are not identical.

http://mapserver-dev/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/gmap/htdocs/test.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=layer1&STYLES=red_style&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=47.99,1.40625,48.9225,2.8125&WIDTH=256&HEIGHT=256
http://mapserver-dev/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/gmap/htdocs/test.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=layer1&STYLES=red_style&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&tile=129+88+8&mode=tile&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600
You'll find mapfile & shp attached to run the same testcase.

Objet : [mapserver-users] [WMS] Styles not working with mode=tile

Hi,

I'm applying styles to my list of layers inside a WMS request, using the classgroup/class/group system in the mapfile.

It works fine when no "tile mode" is used (bbox instead) :
If I launch this request
http://mapserver/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=mymapfile.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=layer1&STYLES=style2&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&bbox=-35,10,52,15&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600
style2 is applied to layer1

But it doesn't work if the request uses tile mode :
http://mapserver/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=mymapfile.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=layer1&STYLES=style2&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&tile=0+0+0&tilemode=gmap&mode=tile&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600
style2 is not applied (default style is applied)

Is there a way to apply styles in tile mode ?

Thanks & Regards

Cl?ment

Message-ID: <CACC0xJKArJb15yJbJXtqCmXZw8vJADGJU+GY1NmrUqJmsPpxfA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all:

I'm wondering if there's a good solution to the issues I'm having.  I would
prefer to use JPEG format for my maps, overall they look better and are
smaller.  But I have two issues I'm wondering about.

1) I can't seem to find a way to turn off anti-aliasing. Is it possible to
turn it off with JPEG ?  I want the crisper look of aliased lines for the
various (MULTI)LINESTRING elements like state/county/country/coastlines,
etc.
2) The images are washed out or are lighter in color.  Hard to explain,
it's as if it's over exposed film.

If I use GIF output, these problems go away, but other problems are
introduced.  For instance the image size goes up too much and the quality
of the other features goes down.
I have one of the Nasa Blue Earth images as a base rastar layer, then place
roads and other features on top of it.

I can use PNG images, but those are also too large and I still have the
antialiasing problem with certain features.

I've considered using a jpeg for the blue marble, then a transparent gif
for the overlay, and joining the two.
I can't seem to get the GIF transparency to work though.  (Manually setting
the transparency and overlaying the GIF on the JPEG seems to produce a

Thomas,

Thank you for your quick response and investigation into this issue. I
introduced the code changes noted in the changeset you provided and the
PointSymbolizer's fill-opacity, stroke-opacity and stroke-width are now
properly applied.

I tried to extrapolate what you did in msSLDParseGraphicFillOrStroke to
msSLDGenerateLineSLD and msSLDGeneratePolygonSLD to ensure it also applied
the stroke-opacity values for those symbolizers but the code for reading the
CssParameters and applying them in those methods is different enough that
I'm not clear on how to do so properly. If you have a moment to throw out a
code snippet for that in those locations, I'll be happy to try it out and
include it in the ticket I'll write up about all this stuff shortly.

If you don't have time, no worries. Your help has already been tremendously
useful. I'll keep trying...

Cheers
jtm

Okay, wait a second, I was looking at the wrong methods. The method in
question is msSLDParseStroke where the stroke-opacity is "handled" and it is
writing the value to:

psStyle->color.alpha =
(int)(atof(psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)*255);


This works for a LineSymbolizer, but for a PolygonSymbolizer must read:

psStyle->outlinecolor.alpha =
(int)(atof(psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)*255);


Do I have a way of knowing which type of symbolizer it is in that method so
I'll know whether to save the value to color or outlinecolor?

Cheers,
jtm

I've created two separate tickets for the issues brought up in this thread:

1. http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4131 - regarding the parameters
ignored in the PointSymbolizer and highlighting Thomas Bonfort's proposed
fix.

2. http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4132 - regarding the
"stroke-opacity" parameter being ignored in the PolygonSymbolizer and
possibly identifying the area of code that is problematic.

Subject: [mapserver-users] mapObj does not close MS_ERRORFILE handle in
	MapServer 6.0
Message-ID: <A0641FF0352C64429BE486469C9AD53C07F5DE@001FSN2MPN1-022.001f.mgd2.msft.net>

Hi, All,

I believe that the mapObj's Dispose() method does not close the file handle for the MS_ERRORFILE under MapServer 6.0, when used via the SWIG MapScript API for C#.

Here's the context, presented as C# fragments, and please bear with me for the length of this:

  using OSGeo.MapServer;
  ...
  string mapfile = @"MAP
                       CONFIG 'MS_ERRORFILE' "c:/.../mapserver.log"
                       DEBUG 3
                       imagetype 'png'
                       ...
                       LAYER
                         ...
                       END
                     END";
  mapObj mo = mapscript.msLoadMapFromString(mapfile, null);
  imageObj io = mo.draw();
  mo.Dispose();
  byte[] img = io.getBytes();
  ...dump the "img" to a file (such as a ".png" file)
  io.Dispose;

By way of demonstration, if I use this code in a "Console" application, and set a break point right after the "io.Dispose", a directory listing shows a zero length for the mapserver.log file. If I let the application terminate normally, I see the size of the mapserver.log file grow to the expected 1KB or so, and I see that the file contains the expected elapsed time information appropriate to "DEBUG 3". In my test use, the "mapfile" string is well-formed and a reasonable ".png" file is created.

Should I be calling some additional method on the mapObj instance to force ERRORFILE file closure? Is there some other explanation for the behavior reported here?

Thanks

Hi,

I am using GetFeature request to get the attributes from my PostGIS data. I define attributes with "gml_include_items". The order of attributes is however related to postgis column order, not to the order in gml_include_items.

Is it somehow possible to change the order, withoout need to modify column order in PostGIS/PostgreSQL?

Subject: [mapserver-users] Limitation of WMS-Time with MySql or
	Documentation Error?
Message-ID: <4EF481C7.9090002@BfS.de>

Hello,
I have a very principal question.
Is it possible to setup a WMS-Time service with Mapserver, OGR and a 
MySQL database?
I have read the documentation, and the example shows, that it possible 
with a Postgres database.
I have tried it with a MySQL database, and I didn't get it work (at 
least I think, that it doesn't work as it should).
I have heard, that there are some  limitations in OGR supporting MySQL, 
there was nothing concrete.


There is a part of the mapfile:
     LAYER
         NAME "odl_wmst"
         TYPE POINT
         STATUS ON
         INCLUDE "../../include/general/debug_layer.map" #2 Zeilen

         DATA "SELECT value AS wert, end_measure, locality.geom
              FROM result_current JOIN locality ON 
result_current.locality_code = locality.locality_code"
              WHERE end_measure  = '%time%' "

         METADATA
             WMS_TITLE    "ODL_WMS-T"
             WMS_ABSTRACT    "ODL_Paragraph2"

"../../include/general/standard_extent_germany_4326.map"
             "wms_timeextent" "2011-10-01/2011-12-31"
             "wms_timeitem" "end_measure"
             "wms_timedefault" "2011-12-21"
             "wms_timeformat" "YYYY-MM-DD"

             gml_include_items "all"
         END
         VALIDATION
          'time'

         END

      ...
     END #LAYER

I 've tried it with MapServer 5.6.5 (OGR 1.8), 6.0.1 (OGR 1.7).

I don't get any errors. The only thing is, that i get a white picture.
But if I remove the parameter "wms_timeitem" "end_measure", it works, 
though the dokumentation tells, that the parameter "wms_timeitem" is 
mandatory.
Is my WMS-Time service a really WMS-Time-Service without the 
"wms_timeitem" parameter?

Has anybody a working WMS-Time service with MySQL?

Thank you, Best regards und Merry Christmas!

Subject: [mapserver-users] Multi-Resolution Terrain Map File
Message-ID: <FAB0057A7628F248A6C1E8AE88E854901104EC@IMCMBX01.MITRE.ORG>

How do I construct a map file that can handle different resolutions of terrain, with fallback to lower resolution when a no-value is found?  In Google Earth Fusion, I can specify multiple terrain sources and tell it which value(s) represent missing data, and it will then process the terrain, checking for availability of each type of terrain, falling back if there isn't any in a geographic area and falling back if there is missing data.

For simple fallback based on area coverage, I can use a map file like the one below (using 30 Arcsecond SRTM and 1 Arcsecond DTED).  Now, what would I need to do to have it use/interpolate data from the 30 Arcsecond values when there is a missing data/NODATA/hole in the DTED?  In the file below, gdaltindex has been used to generate the coverage shapefiles.

The example below is a simple one, and it would be really helpful to be able to have multiple terrain sources and a way to automatically fill voids the same way that transparency works with raster image layers.  Specifying that terrain values are posts and not pixels would be good too, but lower priority.

Ok, I've been banging my head against this one for a while.  I'm getting this error on MapServer 5.6.7 on a WFS request.  WMS requests seem to work fine on the same layer.  This exact same file works fine on 5.6.0_Beta2.  I have no other BLOB/CLOB columns laying around.  I've tried running the sql (see log below) from the sqlplus and it works fine.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

  You could use the OFFSITE value in the higher resolution layer. 
Basically in this scheme, mapserver would render each layer, and any
place with an OFFSITE value would show the value from the layer under
it.

  A more basic problem is how do you want the elevation value to be
rendered  to a visible image?  You could use GDAL to pre-process the
SRTM DEMs (http://www.perrygeo.net/wordpress/?p=7), or use mapserver to
classify the DEM values to colors on the fly.

Hi,

On possibility might be to prepare one tileindex which contains all the resolutions. It is a normal shapefile and it can be edited with any GIS program. When ready and saved the tileindex can be sorted with sortshape utility so that the course DEM tiles are in the beginning of the shapefile and more accurate ones on the bottom. This way the accurate DEM would be drawn on top of coarse and the result woul look good. However, it would mean double rendering in those areas with accurare DEM.  It does not necessarily be unacceptable slow but for avoiding that you could cut holes into the polygons presenting the course data.
In practise I am not sure if Mapserver is reading the holes of tileindex polygons. Perhaps you should split the polygon into pieces and delete then the polygons which are overlapped with more accurate DEM.

It might be also good to use course DEM everywhere with small map scales. That could be done by making a scale dependent group layer. The first would use only SRTM and when zoomed in the other layer with edited tileindex would take place.

Rich,

Have you tried MapServer 6?

It might be the null srid. I know there was some work done around that time (although I thought it was earlier).

If you send me the layer definition in question and the WFS request, I can try it with the current and some other versions.

Mike

ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected %s got %s

Ok, I?ve been banging my head against this one for a while.  I?m getting this error on MapServer 5.6.7 on a WFS request.  WMS requests seem to work fine on the same layer.  This exact same file works fine on 5.6.0_Beta2.  I have no other BLOB/CLOB columns laying around.  I?ve tried running the sql (see log below) from the sqlplus and it works fine.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

My WFS Request is simple:

Rich,
 
Have you tried MapServer 6?
 
It might be the null srid. I know there was some work done around that time (although I thought it was earlier). 
 
If you send me the layer definition in question and the WFS request, I can try it with the current and some other versions.
 
Mike

Ok, I've been banging my head against this one for a while.  I'm getting this error on MapServer 5.6.7 on a WFS request.  WMS requests seem to work fine on the same layer.  This exact same file works fine on 5.6.0_Beta2.  I have no other BLOB/CLOB columns laying around.  I've tried running the sql (see log below) from the sqlplus and it works fine.  Any ideas?  Thanks.
 
My WFS Request is simple:

Hi,

I would like connect MapServer 6.0.1 to MS SQL Server 2008. To use OGR driver with FreeTDS I try :

- to install FreeTDS from .\freetds-0.91 :

./configure --with-tdsver=7.2
sudo make
make install
make clean

Configure with only --with-tdsver ?

- to edit freetds.conf to configure MS Sql Server 2008 :

[servername1]
host = XX.XX.XX.XX
port = 1433

Only 2 variables to configure ?

- to try to connect MS SQL Server 2008 with ogrinfo : 

ogrinfo -al "MSSQL:server=servername1;driver=FreeTDS;database=EXAMPLE;trusted_connection=yes"

How ogrinfo can find freetds.conf file ?
servername1 must be found in freetds.conf ?
gdal 1.8 is it necessary to specify driver=FreeTDS ? 

But it's doesn't work, so I can't try with mapfile ;-(
What's wrong ?

All, 

Ok,  probably a real hack (as in I'm not sure I want to admit it), but I took a different route with this. 

Using our local coordinate system, I set up a templated grid folder for all the desired resolution layers with a tile index based system and keep this in a static form.  Instead of keeping all the data separate and indexed, I keep an index template and just change the tiles as needed.  I add new tiles into the tile set (same names, just overwrite the old ones) as they are built/become available.  The underlying tiles are from all different sources and are only updated when they become available.  If there is a new set of data available only those tiles are built and replaced in the tile set.  The same tile index is reused repeatedly thereafter, only the actual tiles are updated.  The result is a single layer, single pass dataset with mixed tiles being rendered as needed. 

Now if I could just figure out how to economically blend the tiles together colorwise . . . always something though . . .  :c)

Hi,

On possibility might be to prepare one tileindex which contains all the resolutions. It is a normal shapefile and it can be edited with any GIS program. When ready and saved the tileindex can be sorted with sortshape utility so that the course DEM tiles are in the beginning of the shapefile and more accurate ones on the bottom. This way the accurate DEM would be drawn on top of coarse and the result woul look good. However, it would mean double rendering in those areas with accurare DEM.  It does not necessarily be unacceptable slow but for avoiding that you could cut holes into the polygons presenting the course data.
In practise I am not sure if Mapserver is reading the holes of tileindex polygons. Perhaps you should split the polygon into pieces and delete then the polygons which are overlapped with more accurate DEM.

It might be also good to use course DEM everywhere with small map scales. That could be done by making a scale dependent group layer. The first would use only SRTM and when zoomed in the other layer with edited tileindex would take place.

Brent,

Thanks for the tips.  Was able to make some progress.

A couple of quick notes on the source data - it is either text based (.asc) or GeoTIFF.  In either case, individual pixels are 16 bit signed values (meters).  The intended use is to use it as terrain (WMS access to terrain information in .bil or .tif formats), not to generate colored images.  So while GDAL is great for turning the source uncompressed data into LZW compressed GeoTIFF files, the tools for shading/coloring aren't useful in this application.

OFFSITE might work if I can figure out how to use it for a 16 bit signed value instead of RGB.  If I try something like this:
    OFFSITE -9999
The parse fails.  Using a color like this:
   OFFSITE 0 0 0
Gives a useable result, pulling content from the coarse (SRTM30) terrain when there are negative values in the higher resolution terrain.  I suspect it works for the wrong reason (e.g., negative values in the source data are mapped to the color 0).

However, it isn't quite the right result.  What I'm really looking for is the ability to specify the value(s) where the source data has missing values (typically -9999 or -32768) or a range of data to ignore (Google Earth Fusion allows this) such as: -32768:-20000,-9999,0.

  You could use the OFFSITE value in the higher resolution layer. 
Basically in this scheme, mapserver would render each layer, and any
place with an OFFSITE value would show the value from the layer under
it.

  A more basic problem is how do you want the elevation value to be
rendered  to a visible image?  You could use GDAL to pre-process the
SRTM DEMs (http://www.perrygeo.net/wordpress/?p=7), or use mapserver to
classify the DEM values to colors on the fly.

I don't believe you can control this on the MapServer side. Why not just set the column order
explicitly in the SQL statement?

Hi,

I am using GetFeature request to get the attributes from my PostGIS data. I define attributes with "gml_include_items". The order of attributes is however related to postgis column order, not to the order in gml_include_items.

Is it somehow possible to change the order, withoout need to modify column order in PostGIS/PostgreSQL?

Not sure what version you're working with. In 6.0 it should be as simple as:

  IMAGETYPE GIF
  TRANSPARENT TRUE

No need for any funky output format, just use the default.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Image output issues

Hi all:

I'm wondering if there's a good solution to the issues I'm having.  I would prefer to use JPEG format for my maps, overall they look better and are smaller.  But I have two issues I'm wondering about.

1) I can't seem to find a way to turn off anti-aliasing. Is it possible to turn it off with JPEG ?  I want the crisper look of aliased lines for the various (MULTI)LINESTRING elements like state/county/country/coastlines, etc.
2) The images are washed out or are lighter in color.  Hard to explain, it's as if it's over exposed film.

If I use GIF output, these problems go away, but other problems are introduced.  For instance the image size goes up too much and the quality of the other features goes down.
I have one of the Nasa Blue Earth images as a base rastar layer, then place roads and other features on top of it.

I can use PNG images, but those are also too large and I still have the antialiasing problem with certain features.

I've considered using a jpeg for the blue marble, then a transparent gif for the overlay, and joining the two.
I can't seem to get the GIF transparency to work though.  (Manually setting the transparency and overlaying the GIF on the JPEG seems to produce a reasonable result.)

Gif declaration:
    OUTPUTFORMAT
        NAME "gif"
        DRIVER GD/GIF
        MIMETYPE "image/gif"
        IMAGEMODE PC256
        EXTENSION "gif"
        FORMATOPTION "TRANSPARENT=ON"
    END
    IMAGECOLOR 55 55 55

Jpeg declaration:
    OUTPUTFORMAT
        NAME "jpeg"
        DRIVER AGG/JPEG
        MIMETYPE "image/jpeg"
        IMAGEMODE RGB
        EXTENSION "jpg"
    END


Can anyone provide any help?

Thank you.

Hi,

The WFS standard defines that attributes are included in a XML sequence. Therefore the returned attributes must be in the same order than in the schema of your feature type.

I would suggest also having a try with editing the SQL in the DATA line and selecting attributes as you like but check first if it has an effect on the schema returned by DescribeFeatureType.

Xander,

    You could have a look at using GDAL's virtual format (VRT) to point 
to your original data and specify the nodata value in the VRT (you could 
even get exotic by using TILEINDEXs of VRTS).

   Another option is to instead use the PROCESSING "LUT=..." directive.  
This may allow you to specify the target nodata value as well as the 
source nodata value when you tweak the directive for each of your 
elevation layers.  But I haven't tried it...

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Hi Bob,

What does the top 15+- lines of your mapfile look like?
This error is in loadSymbol, do you have a reference to a symbol file? 
is this where the error is coming from? Are you sure you are loading the 
correct symbol file?

Not sure if this helps, but here's the first few lines of the symbol
file- notice that line 6 contains the Style keyword.  Does anything look
out of place with that?

SYMBOL
  NAME 'county-line'
  TYPE ELLIPSE
  POINTS 2 2 END
  FILLED true
  STYLE 4 2 2 4 END
END

Bob,

STYLE at the SYMBOL level was renamed PATTERN in 5.0 and removed in v6.
This is a dashed line and now the PATTERN is applied at the LAYER level
rather than at the SYMBOL.

You should remove the STYLE..END block from the SYMBOL and apply it as a
PATTERN at the LAYER level (see
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/style.html#style)

Looking at that now.  Does the same apply to Cartoline?  I seem to be
having issues with those symbols as well.

Yes, CARTOLINE was deprecated back at version 5 and completely removed at
version 6.

Yes, CARTOLINE was deprecated back at version 5 and completely removed

Thanks,

I tried something like:

DATA "the_geom from (select the_geom, attr1, attr2 from table) as new_table using unique gid"

but this doesn't work. Can you tell me how should such a query look like? Now it is like:

DATA "the_geom from table using unique gid"

Thanks very much

I think your subselect has to include gid.

Subject: [mapserver-users] simplify problem
Message-ID: <1325166559184-7135648.post@n2.nabble.com>

Hi,

I'm trying to use ST_Simplify function of Postgis in Mapserver

This data source works fine in my mapfile of Mapserver:
DATA 'geom_3067 from lines using srid=3067 using unique id'

ST_Simplify query works fine inside Postgis:
select ST_Simplify(geom_3067,100) from lines; 

But when I'm trying to use simplify function like this in mapfile, mapserver
throws error:
DATA 'ST_Simplify(geom_3067,100) from lines using srid=3067 using unique id'

msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'grid'.
msPostGISLayerWhichShapes(): Query error. Error (ERROR:  column
"ST_Simplify(geom_3067,100)" does not exist
LINE 1: ...status",encode(AsBinary(force_collection(force_2d("ST_Simpli...
                                                             ^
This is the query sent by mapserver:
select
"status",encode(AsBinary(force_collection(force_2d("ST_Simplify(geom_3067,100)")),'NDR'),'hex')
as geom,"id" from lines where ST_Simplify(geom_3067,100) &&
GeomFromText('POLYGON((365203 7272028.2777498,365203 7661628.2777498,724803
7661628.2777498,724803 7272028.2777498,365203 7272028.2777498))',3067)

It seems that mapserver handles "ST_Simplify(geom_3067,100)" like a database
column. Is there something wrong in my syntax?

Thanks in advance

AL

Try using a column alias like so 


DATA 'ST_Simplify(geom_3067, 100) geom FROM lines USING srid=3067 USING UNIQUE id'

Dunno man. Guessing in the wind again... Create a view in Pg using a column alias as above, then use the view in the map file. That should do it. Mind it, I haven't looked at the actual syntax of your query.... I am on an iPad here.

Hi,

Actually I did a view and it works fine, but I thought to use different
tolerances depending on map scale. So it would be better to  have simplify
on mapfile.

regards,

AL

Subject: [mapserver-users] setting mapserv path in template
Message-ID: <4EFCAC7D.2020306@gmail.com>

I'm new in mapserver, I'm following a tutorial but I can't go on. I've 
made a simple mapfile and a template with hidden form like this:

<form method=POST action="/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mapserv">
<input type="submit" value="Click to initialize">
<input type="hidden" name="program" value="/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mapserv">
<input type="hidden" name="map" value="/var/www/mapdata/maplab.map">
<input type="hidden" name=zoomsize size=2 value=2>
<input type="hidden" name="layers" value="geographcs monitoring">
</form>

If I open the template with a browser I get a download window and ask me 
If I wont download te  mapserv file.
Could you help me?

Thanks

Gianluca

First of all, try using GET instead of POST.  Once you make that change,
post the full URL with parameters that you are trying to use and maybe we
can help.  One thing I cna say for sure is if those inputs are hte only
parameters you are passing to mapserver, it's probably not enough.  I don't
see a parameter there for image type, a bounding box, or image width/height.

Also are you sure hte CGI-BIN is set up properly on your webserver? That
could be hte problem as well.

Subject: [mapserver-users] force labels to centroid only
Message-ID: <CAHBySPZNn6eRyYq4nifNqTmNjwsJyCGoLcmuFz01bBFUcaqq+g@mail.gmail.com>

When labeling Public Land Survey polygons I would like to force the
label to stay at the center of the polygon, and if the center of the
polygon is not visible in the map view (only a portion of the poly is
visible) then I do not want the label to be drawn. The way that I'm
currently doing this is with a separate point layer for labeling,
which works fine. I'm just wondering if there is a label directive
that I am overlooking that could be applied to the poly layer?

Thanks,
Rich

Look at the "LABEL_NO_CLIP" processing option. That tells MapServer to compute a label point before clipping to the map view.
