[mapserver-users] Re: pdf vector output in 6.02

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

PDF output works for me on Windows (MS4W) but I seem to have problems with Linux and Mapserver 6.0.1 also. This one gives HTTP 500 Internal error message and on the server side there seems to occur a segfault

http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/osm-mapserver_i?REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&WIDTH=469&HEIGHT=354&LAYERS=default&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&FORMAT=application/x-pdf&BBOX=385063.18278820685,6671589.90189085,385461.47239845013,6671890.529869583&SRS=EPSG:3067&STYLES=

Same with SVG output. Png etc. works fine.  I have the same outputformat as you.
