Sowmya,

Looks like you might have a smart-quote there.

Try

OUTPUTFORMAT
                                NAME kml
                                DRIVER "KML"
                                MIMETYPE "application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml"
                                IMAGEMODE RGB
                                EXTENSION "kml"
                                FORMATOPTION "ATTACHMENT=lidar.kml" #name of kml file returned - This is my line 308
                                FORMATOPTION "maxfeaturestodraw=100"
                END

Hi,

  I know this would be a very basic question. I tried to look around on the web and in the previous lists emails. But, somehow  I could not get a solution. Sorry for bothering evryone with this basic question.

  I am trying get a KML output from my mapserver. I was succesfull in getting a png output which means all my layers are being rendered correctly. Now I modified my mapfile . I removed the IMAGETYPE = png from the MAP Section and added the following:

                OUTPUTFORMAT
                                NAME kml
                                DRIVER "KML"
                                MIMETYPE "application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml"
                                IMAGEMODE RGB
                                EXTENSION "kml"
                                FORMATOPTION ’ATTACHMENT=lidar.kml’ #name of kml file returned - This is my line 308
                                FORMATOPTION "maxfeaturestodraw=100"
                END
  Now when I try to query the mapserver in mode=map, I am getting a parsing error.

getString(): Symbol definition error. Parsing error near (’):(line 308).

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Sowmya.
