I usually use a view, but in this case there are a lot of tables

Subject: [mapserver-users] disappearing point features in North America
Message-ID: <02fa01cce0d5$ff568d60$fe03a820$@green@ibstv.co.uk>

I have a problem that may be down to OpenLayers or to Mapserver, or (just as
likely) to me. Basically I am using OL to request WMS maps from Mapserver,
and the map consists of point features with a global spread, typically
around 100 points in each map. The points are defined in a table which has
lat/lon in decimal degrees, and these are converted to 900913 by Mapserver
where my mapfile has an overall projection of epsg: 900913 but the points
layer has projection epsg: 4326.

 

The map is defined in OL with extents: -20037508.34, -20037508.34,
20037508.34, 20037508.34 and the mapfile has the same extents applied.

This all works fine when a map is first displayed, all of the points are
present on the map. However when I scroll the map left or right there is a
'dead spot' where  all the points in North America disappear and then
re-appear, either side of the dead spot. Looking with Firebug at the
bounding box that OL uses to request the map from Mapserver I can see that
the points disappear when the bounding box is between left bounds of about
-23700000 and -33700000. Only the points in North America are affected,
never those in Europe or Asia. 

 

I have been wrestling with this for quite a while, experimenting with
extents etc, all without any effect.  Does anyone recognise where my problem
may lie, or else have any suggestions how to diagnose what is going on?

 

 

Chris

The format is used when recompressing individual tiles after having
cut a larger metatile. It is also used when combining multiple tiles
into a single image for a getmap request. If you want to force a
specific format to be sent to the source wms server when creating a
tile, you can add a <format>foobar</format> to your source definition
(at the same level as the <layers> parameter). Both formats don't have
to be equivalent, it is actually a good idea to request the images in
png from the source wms server even when using a jpeg format for the
the tileset, as this will avoid a double jpeg compression (once on the
wms server, once on the mapcache server) when storing an individual
tile to the caches.

thomas

Chris:

I had a similar issue, it was suggested to me to add "+over" to my epsg
definitions file.

Mine now looks like:
<4326> +proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +over +no_defs  <>
<900913> +proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0

That seemed to make a difference, but I also upgraded PROJ4 at the same
time.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Can't get Tinyows WFS Layer to show in OpenLayer
Message-ID: <CD4BEECCEBBAA545974D52EB0A5B6EF1281B1EF6@ROMAIL4.vta.org>

Dear All,

I am a newbie of mapserver and other online mapping technologies. Recently, I have been struggling to load a TinyOWS WFS Layer to an OpenLayers map.  I set up proxy.cgi, which works fine. I checked TinyOWS using command "tinyows -check", which also seems to be working. The page http://.../cgi-bin/tinyows.exe?service=wfs&request=getCapabilities&version=1.1.0&typename=tows:lrtstops doesn't return any error either.  I can also load a mapserver WMS layer into the OpenLayers Map with no problem. However, no feature from the WFS layer would show in the OpenLayers map.  Since both the WMS and WFS layers are of the same projection, which is EPSG:2227, I assume that the misspecification of projection is not likely to be the caprice here.   The following is the JavaScript I used and the response returned. Could someone help me find out what I did wrong? Many thanks in advance!

OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/fcgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=";
function init() {
     map = new OpenLayers.Map('map', {
        projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:2227"),
        units: "feet",
        maxResolution: "auto",
        maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(6103631,1911230,6186389,1976404),
        controls: [
            new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoom()
        ]
    });
    var wms= new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
        "parcel",
               "http://.../cgi-bin/mapserv.fcgi?MAP=.../Parcel.map",
        {layers: 'Parcel', format: 'image/jpeg'}
               );

    var wfs = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Editable Features", {
        strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX(), saveStrategy],
        projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:2227"),
        protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
            version: "1.1.0",
            srsName: "urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::2227",
            url: "http://.../cgi-bin/tinyows.fcgi",
            featureNS :  "http://roappdev1:8080/",
            featureType: "lrtstops",

Message-ID: <D12323219CEDB24AA8FAE53FF3F59FB40328B952@BE28.exg3.exghost.com>

Folks,

We have a mapscript (6.x) application which runs as a process so the php
script does not exit.

What we appear to be seeing (using valgrind) is a surprisingly large
number of memory leaks.

Our next step is to look into each one and try and determine the cause
but they appear to be in multiple places.

Does anyone have any experience of similar conditions?

Many thanks

Ian

Betreff: [mapserver-users] Style a polygon with Horizontal, Vertical,or
Diagonal Lines using SLD?


Hi All!

I'm wondering if anyone has experience styling maps with horizontal,
vertical, or diagonal lines when using MapServer WMS and a custom provided
SLD? The documentation states: 

http://mapserver.org/ogc/sld.html#named-styles-support

"A Fill can be a solid fill or be a Graphic Fill, which is either a
well-known Mark symbol (e.g., square, circle, triangle, star, cross, x) or
an ExternalGraphic element (e.g., gif, png) available through a URL"




This pretty clearly states that the way to accomplish my goal is by tiling
an externally referenced image that has the line oriented the way I want,
but then we lose the coloring options. GeoServer has some cool SLD
extensions that are outside the spec (see link below) and I was wondering if
MapServer had anything similar?


http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld-extensions/pointsymbols
.html#the-shape-symbols


Thanks!
Paul

Folks,

The OSGeo ProjectsVM is down while we upgrade the OS (an upgrade
that has encountered some issues).  While this is being resolved the
hosted sites including gdal.org, mapserver.org, grass.org will be down.

  http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/ProjectsVM

Downtime could potentially be in the hours or even a day or two.  I won't
announce when things are back but you can always try.  Note that Trac
for bug reporting, and subversion are not down.

Sorry for the inconvenience.  And damn Debian major OS version
in-place upgrades. :-)

Best regards,

Very thanks for your fast answer, Mr. Brent Fraser.

I want to create a points using openlayers to describes realtime GPS tracking. 

But i want to insert the openlayers script into web tempate of the mapfile, can i do that?

If it were possible, what the effect when I zoom the map?

Thanks for attention & your kindness

Best regards
Gozali

Gozali,

? Due to the dynamic nature of the data, a spatial relational
    database such as PostGIS would be a good choice for the data
    storage.? The tables would depend on which features are important to
    you (positions, tracks, etc).

? Populating the tables from GPS data would likely require some
    custom coding.

There were a couple of sessions at FOSS4G 2007:

Several questions related to your issue:

- What TinyOWS version do you use ?

- What happen if you use QGIS as WMS/WFS client rather than OpenLayers ?

- Could you activate TinyOWS log and check if there's any error message in
it ?

- Could you use Firebug with OpenLayers to check the TinyOWS output stream ?

Hi all,

I've have a problem with a mapfile that I need to show a particular label

When I use the map mode in a browser, there is only the layer unite_eval,
but my centroide layer is not showed.

What's happening here? What can I do?

Yes, but in most (all?) implementations OpenLayers is loaded only once 
into your browser.  It then makes requests to mapserver for data (i.e an 
image on every pan and zoom).  In the "old" way (without OpenLayers or 
some similar JavaScript/Java package) of configuring mapserver, 
mapserver would deliver HTML, images, etc to render the entire interface 
on every pan and zoom.  I don't think many people use it this way 
anymore since browsers are a lot more capable, but you can configure it 
this way if you really want to.

   Have a look at the OpenLayers examples.  Use your browser's debugging 
tool to see the conversation between OpenLayers and mapserver.

Note to Mapserver documenters: we need to update the Mapserver 
Introduction (especially the "Anatomy...") to show the more modern AJAX 
style implementation.

Hi,

Layers are rendered from bottom to top and I believe that now your centroide_pts are just there under the polygons.
By the way, STATUS OFF should mean that the layer is not at all in use. It is a bit odd that your layers still render, or at least the polygons.

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state. 

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Hi Phil,

I'm not sure I understand what you need here. Mapserver currently 
displays one label per polygon based on the visible extents of that 
polygon. If your state is represented by a single record with a 
multipolygon like the state and its coastal islands, then I suspect that 
it will label the first polygon in the multipolygon object. In the cases 
where you have multiple records in your dataset one for the state and 
additional polygons for the islands, then all of these are added to the 
labelcache and the last one in the labelcache is labeled first if the 
label does not collide. So in this case you could sort your data by 
state and area increasing in size so you largest is loaded last and 
labeled first.

You can also control the number of labels using MINDISTANCE <dist> so 
the same label in a layer is not presented within <dist> units of 
another with the same name.

Do you need more than this?
Are you trying to place the label in the biggest open space? (this we 
can not do because there is no easy algorithm for this).

Hi,

I do not feel that your use case is very common. Perhaps instead of modifying Mapserver you could think if you could do it mainly on the database side. For example, draw all the polygons without labels and use some clever SQL for creating another layer from the features which you would like to see labeled above it.

I'd do this by sorting features based on area (ascending order). This would draw the smallest polygons first, but would put the labels for the shapes with the largest area into the label cache last (where they would be placed and drawn first). I've done this with labeling lakes and it works fine.

Message-ID: <SNT137-W12DF47EE24BEF2F65E1BDCA6700@phx.gbl>


Hi list,

We recently upgraded from MapServer 5.x to 6.0.1 on Linux.  We have 21 sites running all running smoothly with identical configurations off this server.  On one site the MapServer connection to Postgres/PostGIS fails on all layers.  The MS debug message is as follows

[Thu Feb  2 14:41:04 2012].823297 msPostGISLayerOpen(): Query error. Database connection failed (FATAL:  no pg_hba.conf entry for host "[local]", user "interlocken", database "nterlocNken", SSL off
) with connect string 'dbname='nterlocNken' user='interlocken' password=*******************'

And the entry in the map file

    CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
    PROCESSING "CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER"
    CONNECTION "dbname='interlocken' user='interlocken' password='**************'"
    DATA 'the_geom FROM "ext_lighting_existing_point" USING UNIQUE gid USING srid=4326'
I can log into psql on the server as the interlocken user and hit the DB just fine so it's not the pg_hba.conf file settings which are set that the db username and db name must match.  My question is why 
does the dbname get corrupted to nterlocNken? Is this a bug or how mapserver should present the connection items in a debug statement?  I can use our old copy 5.4 copy of mapserver and it runs the map file fine.  One difference in this build is that we don't have the --with-threads support. We are looking at getting the build rebuilt with this thread locking option included.  Could threading be the problem? I'm not sure how/if threading might be related but thought I would mention it.  

I've stripped out all layers from the mapfile except a single test layer.  I've got 60+ layers running in other map files and databases with identical setups  on the same server without problems, why this one?  We even tried wiping out the DB and associated user and reloading and still the same problem.

Thanks in advance for any help or tips you can provide.

Thanks,

Trent

Thank you, Olivier. 

The TinyOWS version is 1.0.0rc1. I can load both WFS and WMS layers in desktop clients such as QGIS and UDIG. I did activate the error log for TinyOWS. It is just that nothing got logged. My TinyOWS configuration is as follows:
<tinyows online_resource="http://127.0.0.1:8080/cgi-bin/tinyows.exe"
	 schema_dir="/towsschema/"
                 check_schema="0"
                 log="/mstmp/tows.log"
                 log_level="1">

#here /towsschema/  and /mstmp/ are alias I defined in apache configuration. I changed it into directory in windows as "C:\..\..", it makes no difference anyway. 

  <pg host="127.0.0.1" user="***" password="***" dbname="***" port="5432"/>

  <metadata name="TinyOWS Server"
	    title="TinyOWS Server - Demo Service" />

  <layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
	 ns_prefix="tows"
	 ns_uri="http://127.0.0.1:8080/"
         schema="transit"
         name="lightrail"
         srid="2227"
         title="lightrail" />

  <layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
	 ns_prefix="tows"
	 ns_uri="http://127.0.0.1:8080/"
         schema="transit"
         name="lrtstops"
         srid="2227"
         title="LRT Stops" />
</tinyows>

I thought the existence of multiple versions of python might be the problem. The python 2.5 is used by QGIS and GRASS, installed as part of the bundle in the OSGEO4W package. Another is a standalone installation of Python2.7, which is specified as the interpreter for Proxy.CGi. So I started to uninstall and reinstall python and QGIS multiple times. It didn't solve the problem. WFS layer is still not showing in OpenLayers while WMS layer is.  Somehow it did change the error message. 
Now I got "Internal Server Error". The APACHE server logged the following error:

[Thu Feb 02 13:48:21 2012] [error] [client 10.10.17.155] Premature end of script headers: tinyows.exe, referer: http://myserver:8080/openlayers/examples/tinyows.html

I don't know how to use Firebug with OpenLayers to check the TinyOWS output stream yet. Once I figured it out, I will post that as well. 


Many Thanks!

Several questions related to your issue:

- What TinyOWS version do you use ?

- What happen if you use QGIS as WMS/WFS client rather than OpenLayers ?

- Could you activate TinyOWS log and check if there's any error message in
it ?

- Could you use Firebug with OpenLayers to check the TinyOWS output stream ?

Hi,

I understood that meaning was to put exactly one label per state. Each state, even tiny ones, should be labeled. But one state should get only one label even if the map window is splitting the state polygon into two or more intersections. Those intersections may be bigger than the tiny state. Not extremely simple.

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to label only largest displayed areas?

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state.

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Hello All,

The problem got solved finally. It seems all I need to do is to add two more lines into my TinyOWS configuration.  Maybe fixing the PythonPath helped as well. But this change is what really makes a difference.

Before (not working): 
<layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
         ns_prefix="tows"
         ns_uri="http://myserver:8080/"
	   schema="transit"
         name="lrtstops"
         srid="2227"
         title="LRT Stops" />

After (working now):
<layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
        ns_prefix="tows"
        ns_uri="http://myserver:8080/"
        prefix="tows"
	 server="http://myserver:8080/"
       schema="transit"
       name="lrtstops"
       srid="2227"
       title="LRT Stops" />

I was relieved of the frustration I have been suffering during the past two days. Thanks everyone.

Hi,

Did you mention what version you were using? Perhaps it is version 0.9.0 which was indeed using keywords "prefix" and "server". Change into ns_prefix adn ns_uri was done last spring http://tinyows.org/trac/changeset/343
If that is the case I would recommend updating your TinyOWS to the current release canditate.

Several questions related to your issue:

- What TinyOWS version do you use ?

- What happen if you use QGIS as WMS/WFS client rather than OpenLayers ?

- Could you activate TinyOWS log and check if there's any error message in
it ?

- Could you use Firebug with OpenLayers to check the TinyOWS output stream ?


HTH,

Subject: [mapserver-users] Using WFS gml_[item name]_alias
Message-ID: <A0C7880B-FB12-4ADF-9670-951DB461B594@coin.hr>

Hi,

I am trying to use gml_[item name]_alias for renaming my columns in wfs GetFeature request with gml output. Everything works fine except I can't use some characters like whitespace for example, because it is not a valid xml element.

My question is - is there any way to name my attribute like "my attribute" through WFS GetFeature request? 

Btw, I am presenting the result in a html table, so would be useful, for example, to be able to handle this and other stuff like type for example (integer, string, ..) through the mapfile. And maybe to use this on the client to align data in a table (numbers right, string left, etc.)

Thanks very much on any useful info

regards, dejan

There were some changes to string quoting/escaping in version 6 (I think).

Are the errors you are seeing intermittent, or is it reproducible
consistently on all requests?
What happens if you use

CONNECTION "dbname=interlocken user=interlocken ..."

instead of

CONNECTION "dbname='interlocken' user='interlocken' ..."

Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A63067246@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

This should be simple to test and verify.
Write into WEB METADATA parameters

 "wms_title" "test_?"
 "wfs_title" "test_?"

WMS 1.1.1 GetGapabilities does not have any trouble with "?" and request sends back
...
<Service>
  <Name>OGC:WMS</Name>
  <Title>test_?</Title>
....

However, WFS GetCapabilities response gets truncated. All that Mapserver sends is this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<wfs:WFS_Capabilities xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" version="1.1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd">

The same error occurs if non-ascii characters are used in "wfs_abstract".
I was testing on Windows and Mapserver 6.0.1.

This is due to the usage of libXML2. Its internal data format is UTF-8 and MapServer has no way to deal with different map file encodings. Therefore libXML2 aborts due to invalid UTF-8 input data on serialization. Transcode your map file to UTF-8 and it should work.
Note that libXML2 is _not_ used for WMS and older WFS services. These use plain fprintf() to write data out as is. So you might encounter crazy things when trying to use different encodings on data, map file and web server output.

Hi,

Thank you for the information. I had a try by converting my Windows mapfile with iconv by using parameters -f ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8. Now WFS GetCapabilities did not get truncated and it shows right:

<ows:Title>test_?</ows:Title>
However, WMS GetCapabilities is a bit odd if "wms_title" is also given UTF-8 encoded.

<Title>test_??</Title>

I can make both look right by using UTF-8 encoding for "wfs_title" and ISO-8859-1 encoding for "wms_title" inside the same mapfile. In a way funny but not very convenient situation.

Hi all,

Are there any extensions of ArcView 10 which I can export .shp files into mapfiles or possibly any other open source mapfile generators?  It seems time consuming to manually create these map files if I have a large collection of shapefiles.

Many thanks,

Message-ID: <CAH5pEGimYQP=qyK5ma7H8WBtMze7oew2cCEr9J3jS0egX-RouA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I would like to achieve in mapserver something like this google map:
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Paris,+France&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=47.174895,-1.624206&spn=0.005594,0.012167&sll=44.437711,26.097367&sspn=0.376038,0.778656&t=m&z=17
Please notice the round crossroads.
Before I place my question, here is my setup.
the map editor: a custom openlayers tool.
It saves labels, lines, polygons through WFS-T with tinyows into a
postgres+postgis db.
a mapserver to render these vector features.
There are 2 questions:
1. As my starting point is raw satellite images, what would be the
best approach for the editor? Should I let him make only the lines for
the street and then I compute the intersections in the sql query in
the layer section of the mapserver? should i give him the possibility
to make a point at the intersection of the 2 lines on a different
layer? or maybe a regular polygon with many sides ?
2. Once I have the lines on the street layer and optional
point/regular polygon on the crossroads layer, how do I go about and
make it look like the google map shown at the link above ?
I will take as example the crossroads at Rue Eugene Pottier and Route
de Paimboeuf. Coming from North-East the thin red line acting as
border goes around in a nice curve and goes north to  Rue Eugene
Pottier [the border below goes south the same nice way]. and in the
middle there is a circle showing underneath layers with the same color
- thin red.

I didn't find any examples, or any mapserver map that can do this? Is
it even possible? Or is there a trick in STYLE section that can
achieve this result?

Thank you in advance,
Gabi

Hi, Jukka and Steve,

Thanks for your replies. Jukka is correct, I do not believe it is simple. Steve, your approach sorts all areas and then filters by those visible in the layer's extent. I'm looking for ranking by the clipped area. For example, if the current map and layer's extent shows the a small sliver of the mainland of California and a larger visible part of an island that is part of California, only the island would be labeled, as its visible area is larger than that of the sliver.

Hi,

I understood that meaning was to put exactly one label per state. Each state, even tiny ones, should be labeled. But one state should get only one label even if the map window is splitting the state polygon into two or more intersections. Those intersections may be bigger than the tiny state. Not extremely simple.

This would draw the smallest polygons first, but would put the labels for the shapes with the largest area into the label cache last (where they would be placed and drawn first). I've done this with labeling lakes and it works fine.

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to label only largest displayed areas?

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state.

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Thanks for the MINDISTANCE suggestion; I'll give that a go to get part way there, along with to Steve L.'s suggestion to sort. Still not quite at the goal yet.

Hi, Jukka and Steve,

Thanks for your replies. Jukka is correct, I do not believe it is simple. Steve, your approach sorts all areas and then filters by those visible in the layer's extent. I'm looking for ranking by the clipped area. For example, if the current map and layer's extent shows the a small sliver of the mainland of California and a larger visible part of an island that is part of California, only the island would be labeled, as its visible area is larger than that of the sliver.

Hi,

I understood that meaning was to put exactly one label per state. Each state, even tiny ones, should be labeled. But one state should get only one label even if the map window is splitting the state polygon into two or more intersections. Those intersections may be bigger than the tiny state. Not extremely simple.

Hi Phil,

I'm not sure I understand what you need here. Mapserver currently 
displays one label per polygon based on the visible extents of that 
polygon. If your state is represented by a single record with a 
multipolygon like the state and its coastal islands, then I suspect that 
it will label the first polygon in the multipolygon object. In the cases 
where you have multiple records in your dataset one for the state and 
additional polygons for the islands, then all of these are added to the 
labelcache and the last one in the labelcache is labeled first if the 
label does not collide. So in this case you could sort your data by 
state and area increasing in size so you largest is loaded last and 
labeled first.

You can also control the number of labels using MINDISTANCE <dist> so 
the same label in a layer is not presented within <dist> units of 
another with the same name.

Do you need more than this?
Are you trying to place the label in the biggest open space? (this we 
can not do because there is no easy algorithm for this).

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to label only largest displayed areas?

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state.

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Phil,

In theory, it might be possible to do this by extending the labelcache 
code to save the clipped area size of each polygon or a clipped length 
of a line and then sort the labelcache items by size and label them. 
MINDISTANCE could be applied to limit the number of labels using the 
existing code. This behavior would need to be triggered by a new LABEL 
keyword maybe like PRIORITY [LARGEST|SMALLEST]

If you want to write an enhancement ticket for this in the bug tracker 
you can add my comment above, but I suspect that you would have to fund 
the development of this or provide a patch.

Best regards,
   -Steve W

There is not trick to this, I have plenty of maps with roundabouts in 
them. You just have to digitize the the roundabout as segments. 
Mapserver just draws points, lines and polygons, what you are 
visualizing as a nice smooth circle is nothing more then a line with 
multiple vertices, a LINESTRING.

I interpreted differently, probably incorrectly. It would be helpful to see pictures with questions like this. I do think that sorting, plus label MINDISTANCE, plus label MINFEATURESIZE would probably produce useable results in most cases. 

The only other solution I can think of would be to clip features in the database. PostGIS has the !bbox! hack to allow this. I don't know if the other DBs also support it.

Hi,

But still in this certain case the final select should sort by clipped size AND group by state name AND select the biggest feature from each group. Doesn't it feel easier to do with a database query and addional label layer? But how to pass the WMS BBOX for the database so it could do polygon intersections for getting the areas? And attributes should be transferred too so that clipped areas could be sorted by state name.

Steve,

Thanks for the additional MINFEATURESIZE suggestion. That parameter, alongside of MINDISTANCE, may be quite satisfactory.

Subject: RE: How to label only largest displayed areas?

I interpreted differently, probably incorrectly. It would be helpful to see pictures with questions like this. I do think that sorting, plus label MINDISTANCE, plus label MINFEATURESIZE would probably produce useable results in most cases. 

The only other solution I can think of would be to clip features in the database. PostGIS has the !bbox! hack to allow this. I don't know if the other DBs also support it.

Hi,

I understood that meaning was to put exactly one label per state. Each state, even tiny ones, should be labeled. But one state should get only one label even if the map window is splitting the state polygon into two or more intersections. Those intersections may be bigger than the tiny state. Not extremely simple.

This would draw the smallest polygons first, but would put the labels for the shapes with the largest area into the label cache last (where they would be placed and drawn first). I've done this with labeling lakes and it works fine.

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to label only largest displayed areas?

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state.

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Hi, Steve W,

Thanks again. I'll hold on to your enhancement suggestion and if your MINDISTANCE/MINFEATURESIZE suggestions, coupled with Steve L.'s sorting suggestion do not yield a cartographically-pleasing solution, I'll create the enhancement ticket and investigate how best to proceed.

FWIW we're using Microsoft SQL Server 2008, which lets us clip polygons as part of the retrieval query. The enhancement ticket I recently submitted (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) shows how it is done; the missing piece is to actually have the dimensions of the bounding box. My ticket asks that such information, the layer's extent as well-kn0wn-text, be made available for lexical substitution in the Data statement. Again, if your and Steve L.'s suggestions work out, the need for your suggested enhancement, as well as mine, fades away.

Phil,

In theory, it might be possible to do this by extending the labelcache 
code to save the clipped area size of each polygon or a clipped length 
of a line and then sort the labelcache items by size and label them. 
MINDISTANCE could be applied to limit the number of labels using the 
existing code. This behavior would need to be triggered by a new LABEL 
keyword maybe like PRIORITY [LARGEST|SMALLEST]

If you want to write an enhancement ticket for this in the bug tracker 
you can add my comment above, but I suspect that you would have to fund 
the development of this or provide a patch.

Best regards,
   -Steve W

Thomas,

That did it! I had tried removing the single quotes from the username, but not the db, but not both, I can't remember. By removing single quotes around
both the dbname and the username it started working.  It's still strange to me that it works with single quotes on all my other sites.

Thanks for your suggestion!

Trent

Hi Jukka,

The labelcache could be extended to handle this, we already create and 
entry for each label, by name and by priority, if we priority was set to 
-1 or 02 for largest or smallest, and a size slot was added to the cache 
then all the rendering code would need to do isi compute the rendered 
(ie clipped) size in pixels or whatever. Database queries don't work if 
you are using shapefiles or other datasources. While postgres 
connections do support a !BOX! as Steve L mentioned not all databases 
have this coded. Size could be trivially computed as the number of 
pixels drawn for the polygon when it is rendered, although this might 
not be easily accessible given some of the newer rendering engines we 
support now.

I want the layer to show all the records. For example my class looks likes
this:

CLASS
         NAME 'FKB-A'
         EXPRESSION '%pn%' 
         STYLE
            COLOR 254 150 254
            OUTLINECOLOR 1 1 1
         END
      END

and when I use this request:

.....REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=fkb_prosjektstandard&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=58.9930983171506,9.40049150322111,59.8470137571506,10.904184647298&WIDTH=1650&HEIGHT=937&pn=LACHVE11

I get back 1 record which is correct. However, if I drop the &pn=LACHVE11 of
course I get no results back. Is there any way of changing this so that I
can get all the records of the table returned? 

I thought about using the 'default_pn' option in the metadata and using
wildcards but as this is an '=' expression rather than a 'LIKE' expression
wildcards are useless. Maybe its just because its friday afternoon, but I
just can't see a way of doing this, help!!!

Best Regards

Tom

Hi Julien,

I think that you have a database design problem.

You can have a lot of tables which concerns to a different objects, but you need to show some information on a map which involves many of those tables. That's why you have to create different views or in the worst case, a super view as a spreadsheet.

I guess that's why you're talking about unnecessary JOINs, but in the end, you'll need to use them to create the multiple data sources or the super data source of your layers in the .MAP file.

Tom,

What I am using with a database connection is a default value of "1=1" so
that is always true, it returns all records.

The version is 1.1.0rc1. Seems I need to specify both "prefix"/"server" and "ns_prefix/ns_ur" for it to work.. I am wondering why. Thanks.

Hi,

I understood that meaning was to put exactly one label per state. Each state, even tiny ones, should be labeled. But one state should get only one label even if the map window is splitting the state polygon into two or more intersections. Those intersections may be bigger than the tiny state. Not extremely simple.

This would draw the smallest polygons first, but would put the labels for the shapes with the largest area into the label cache last (where they would be placed and drawn first). I've done this with labeling lakes and it works fine.

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to label only largest displayed areas?

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state.

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Hello All,

The problem got solved finally. It seems all I need to do is to add two more lines into my TinyOWS configuration.  Maybe fixing the PythonPath helped as well. But this change is what really makes a difference.

Before (not working): 
<layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
         ns_prefix="tows"
         ns_uri="http://myserver:8080/"
	   schema="transit"
         name="lrtstops"
         srid="2227"
         title="LRT Stops" />

After (working now):
<layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
        ns_prefix="tows"
        ns_uri="http://myserver:8080/"
        prefix="tows"
	 server="http://myserver:8080/"
       schema="transit"
       name="lrtstops"
       srid="2227"
       title="LRT Stops" />

I was relieved of the frustration I have been suffering during the past two days. Thanks everyone.

Ya

Several questions related to your issue:

- What TinyOWS version do you use ?

- What happen if you use QGIS as WMS/WFS client rather than OpenLayers ?

- Could you activate TinyOWS log and check if there's any error message in
it ?

- Could you use Firebug with OpenLayers to check the TinyOWS output stream ?

Hi,

Did you mention what version you were using? Perhaps it is version 0.9.0 which was indeed using keywords "prefix" and "server". Change into ns_prefix adn ns_uri was done last spring http://tinyows.org/trac/changeset/343
If that is the case I would recommend updating your TinyOWS to the current release canditate.

Hi,

I am trying to use gml_[item name]_alias for renaming my columns in wfs GetFeature request with gml output. Everything works fine except I can't use some characters like whitespace for example, because it is not a valid xml element.

My question is - is there any way to name my attribute like "my attribute" through WFS GetFeature request? 

Btw, I am presenting the result in a html table, so would be useful, for example, to be able to handle this and other stuff like type for example (integer, string, ..) through the mapfile. And maybe to use this on the client to align data in a table (numbers right, string left, etc.)

Thanks very much on any useful info

regards, dejan

There were some changes to string quoting/escaping in version 6 (I think).

Are the errors you are seeing intermittent, or is it reproducible
consistently on all requests?
What happens if you use

CONNECTION "dbname=interlocken user=interlocken ..."

instead of

CONNECTION "dbname='interlocken' user='interlocken' ..."

Hi,

I have point shapefile and trying to show the points as big circles on the map. So I am using something like:

...
SIZEUNITS kilometers
CLASS
  Name "myname"
  SIZE 10
  ...
END
...

Everything is show ok on the map but the symbol in the legend is very big, and exceeds the symbol key box very much, although KEYSIZE is set to 25 18.

Btw, I am using WMS GetLegendGraphic request for getting the legend

Thanks very much

regards, dejan

Hi,

This should be simple to test and verify.
Write into WEB METADATA parameters

 "wms_title" "test_?"
 "wfs_title" "test_?"

WMS 1.1.1 GetGapabilities does not have any trouble with "?" and request sends back
...
<Service>
  <Name>OGC:WMS</Name>
  <Title>test_?</Title>
....

However, WFS GetCapabilities response gets truncated. All that Mapserver sends is this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<wfs:WFS_Capabilities xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" version="1.1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd">
  <ows:ServiceIdentification>
    <ows:Title>test_


The same error occurs if non-ascii characters are used in "wfs_abstract".
I was testing on Windows and Mapserver 6.0.1.

Sorry, I took back what I said earlier. After I removed "prefix"/"server" from the configuration, it is still working.  Jukka Rahkonen was right. Now, I am clueless what I did differently.

The version is 1.1.0rc1. Seems I need to specify both "prefix"/"server" and "ns_prefix/ns_ur" for it to work.. I am wondering why. Thanks.

Hi,

I understood that meaning was to put exactly one label per state. Each state, even tiny ones, should be labeled. But one state should get only one label even if the map window is splitting the state polygon into two or more intersections. Those intersections may be bigger than the tiny state. Not extremely simple.

This would draw the smallest polygons first, but would put the labels for the shapes with the largest area into the label cache last (where they would be placed and drawn first). I've done this with labeling lakes and it works fine.

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to label only largest displayed areas?

Hi, All,

How can I label only the largest displayed areas within an extent? For example, if I'm labeling states of the United States and my extent covers a small region around the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts junction, I only want a single label for each state, chosen by the largest displayed area (within the current map extent) in each state.

I'm using spatial data stored in Microsoft's SQL Server 2008.

I've created an enhancement request ticket (#4173: Define a current layer extent's WKT string for use in Data statement) as one possible approach, but this approach requires a change to MapServer.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

Hello All,

The problem got solved finally. It seems all I need to do is to add two more lines into my TinyOWS configuration.  Maybe fixing the PythonPath helped as well. But this change is what really makes a difference.

Before (not working): 
<layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
         ns_prefix="tows"
         ns_uri="http://myserver:8080/"
	   schema="transit"
         name="lrtstops"
         srid="2227"
         title="LRT Stops" />

After (working now):
<layer retrievable="1"
	 writable="0"
        ns_prefix="tows"
        ns_uri="http://myserver:8080/"
        prefix="tows"
	 server="http://myserver:8080/"
       schema="transit"
       name="lrtstops"
       srid="2227"
       title="LRT Stops" />

I was relieved of the frustration I have been suffering during the past two days. Thanks everyone.

Ya

Several questions related to your issue:

- What TinyOWS version do you use ?

- What happen if you use QGIS as WMS/WFS client rather than OpenLayers ?

- Could you activate TinyOWS log and check if there's any error message in
it ?

- Could you use Firebug with OpenLayers to check the TinyOWS output stream ?

Hi,

Did you mention what version you were using? Perhaps it is version 0.9.0 which was indeed using keywords "prefix" and "server". Change into ns_prefix adn ns_uri was done last spring http://tinyows.org/trac/changeset/343
If that is the case I would recommend updating your TinyOWS to the current release canditate.

Hi,

I am trying to use gml_[item name]_alias for renaming my columns in wfs GetFeature request with gml output. Everything works fine except I can't use some characters like whitespace for example, because it is not a valid xml element.

My question is - is there any way to name my attribute like "my attribute" through WFS GetFeature request? 

Btw, I am presenting the result in a html table, so would be useful, for example, to be able to handle this and other stuff like type for example (integer, string, ..) through the mapfile. And maybe to use this on the client to align data in a table (numbers right, string left, etc.)

Thanks very much on any useful info

There were some changes to string quoting/escaping in version 6 (I think).

Are the errors you are seeing intermittent, or is it reproducible
consistently on all requests?
What happens if you use

CONNECTION "dbname=interlocken user=interlocken ..."

instead of

CONNECTION "dbname='interlocken' user='interlocken' ..."

Hi,

This should be simple to test and verify.
Write into WEB METADATA parameters

 "wms_title" "test_?"
 "wfs_title" "test_?"

WMS 1.1.1 GetGapabilities does not have any trouble with "?" and request sends back
...
<Service>
  <Name>OGC:WMS</Name>
  <Title>test_?</Title>
....

However, WFS GetCapabilities response gets truncated. All that Mapserver sends is this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

The same error occurs if non-ascii characters are used in "wfs_abstract".

Hi,

Perhaps someone can tell if you could use the default value to "NOT something_very_off", which would then select everything for you.

thats working fine, however, if I don't set the expression value in the url,
I want the layer to show all the records. For example my class looks likes
this:

CLASS
         NAME 'FKB-A'
         EXPRESSION '%pn%'
         STYLE
            COLOR 254 150 254
            OUTLINECOLOR 1 1 1
         END
      END

and when I use this request:

.....REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&LAYERS=fkb_prosjektstandard&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=58.9930983171506,9.40049150322111,59.8470137571506,10.904184647298&WIDTH=1650&HEIGHT=937&pn=LACHVE11

I get back 1 record which is correct. However, if I drop the &pn=LACHVE11 of
course I get no results back. Is there any way of changing this so that I
can get all the records of the table returned?

I thought about using the 'default_pn' option in the metadata and using
wildcards but as this is an '=' expression rather than a 'LIKE' expression
wildcards are useless. Maybe its just because its friday afternoon, but I
just can't see a way of doing this, help!!!

Best Regards

Tom

Hi Paul,

QGIS has such a tool, I'm not sure about Arc.

You should be able to handcraft a generic mapfile as a template you can re-use as required. I had a use case some time ago for this sort of thing & used a Linux shell script to make the text substitutions in such a template from reading a spreadsheet containing the mapfile parameters required for each individual shapefile.

These days I tend to manage data in Postgis, & use a filter or mapserver's variable substitution to manage such situations.

Using a single mapfile with cgi wrappers to re-use it in this way for different datasets works better for me than maintaining lots of separate mapfiles.

In a couple of situations where this is not flexible enough, having a cgi actually contain the mapfile text, so it writes the customised mapfile, then invokes it, also works for me.

Cheers,
??

Hi all, ?Are there any extensions of ArcView 10 which I can export .shp files into mapfiles or possibly any other open source mapfile generators?? It seems time consuming to manually create these map files if I have a large collection of shapefiles.  ?Many thanks,Paul

Hello

I never need to play with arc but look at http://www.mxd2map.org/
It may help you and it's opensource.

Hi Sev

Yes you can.

If you can get a handle on this page
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html
You can do some pretty amazing things.

Here is what I did for cliffs
This example puts the detail to the right of the line, you can change it to
move it to the left side.

    CLASS
        EXPRESSION 'cliff'
        STYLE
          COLOR "#868f72"
          WIDTH 2
        END # STYLE
        STYLE
          COLOR "#868f72"
          SYMBOL "cliff"
          SIZE 20.0
          WIDTH 1
          #ANGLE 25
          GAP -20
        END # STYLE
    END



SYMBOL ## triangle option
  NAME "cliff"
  TYPE vector
  FILLED true
  POINTS
    0 5
    3 10
    6 5
    0 5
  END # POINTS
END # SYMBOL

SYMBOL ## line option (a little different from your, but you can do it
still)
  NAME "cliff"
  TYPE vector
  FILLED true
  POINTS
    0 5
    0 10
  END # POINTS
END # SYMBOL

Hope that helps

Matt  :)

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

Neuigkeiten und Hintergr?nde zu Technologien des Geo-Webs / 
GIS-Applikationen mit Freier Software und Freien Daten werden dieses 
Jahr auf der FOSSGIS 2012 pr?sentiert. Die FOSSGIS und deutschsprachige 
Open Street Map Konferenz 2012 ? die gr??te deutschsprachige 
Anwenderkonferenz f?r Freie Geo-Informationssysteme und freie Geodaten ? 
findet vom 20. bis 22. M?rz 2012 an der Hochschule Anhalt in 
Dessau-Ro?lau statt.

Der Themenbogen spannt sich von der Datenaufbereitung in OpenStreetMap 
?ber Geodateninfrastrukturen bishin zu Technologien zur Prozessierung 
von umfangreichen Geodaten und spiegelt damit den Trend der steigenden 
Durchdringung des Internets mit Karten und Geodaten wider.

In mehr als 60 Vortr?gen f?r Einsteiger und Experten, Hands-On Workshops 
und Anwendertreffen erhalten die Besucher Einblick in aktuelle 
Anwendungsm?glichkeiten und Neuigkeiten von Softwareprojekten, die 
derartige Anwendungen erm?glichen. ?ber die gleichzeitig stattfindende 
Firmenausstellung ist ein direkter Kontakt zu Dienstleistern, die 
professionelle Unterst?tzung bieten, m?glich.

Zus?tzlich zum fachlich orientieren Austausch in Community-Sessions und 
Entwicklertreffen findet ein Social-Event statt, um den Austausch aller 
Beteiligten - vom Benutzer ?ber Entwickler und Mapper bis zum 
Entscheider - zu intensivieren, um gegenseitig von Ideen und 
Herausforderungen zu lernen.

Die Konferenzgeb?hr betr?gt f?r die gesamten drei Konferenztage 120,- ?. 
Auch in diesem Jahr k?nnen wieder zahlreiche Workshops besucht werden 
f?r die eine Teilnahmegeb?hr von 100,- ? je Teilnehmer und Workshop 
erhoben wird. Workshop-Teilnehmer erhalten eine Teilnahmebest?tigung f?r 
die besuchten Workshops. Die Einnahmen gehen wie auch in den Jahren 
zuvor vollst?ndig in die Finanzierung der Konferenz ein.

Da mehr als 400 Teilnehmende erwartet werden, ist eine Registrierung bis 
zum 16. M?rz 2012 notwendig. Das Anmeldeformular und andere 
organisatorische Informationen befinden sich auf der Konferenzseite 
http://www.fossgis.de/konferenz/2012/.

Die FOSSGIS Konferenz 2012 wird vom gemeinn?tzigen Verein FOSSGIS e.V, 
der deutschen OpenStreetMap Community und der Open Source Geospatial 
Foundation (OSGeo) in Zusammenarbeit mit der Hochschule Anhalt in Dessau 
durchgef?hrt.

Does someone know if this is some kind of a bug or it is supposed to be so? Should the legend symbol box size really depend on sizeunits? Or should I report it as a bug?

thx, dejan

Ok, to be more specific, when I comment the line " LABELITEM 'IDENT' " in my
mapfile, I can see my layer of point. But when I uncomment the same line, I
get a pink screen of death.

Why?????

By the way, I'm using GeoMOOSE, but I don't know if the problem come from
this app.

Hi all,

When using the command ./configure for setting up mapserver-6.0.1 bash kicks out:

checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

I've run...
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install g++
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev
...and still no dice.

Any suggestions?

Many Thanks,
Paul Maddock

Hi,

I have a line layer representing streets. I have two attributes that 
represent the address number of start and end of the street. I would 
like to put these numbers as labels at the beginning and end of a section.
I know this is possible with symbols (# 
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html tricks). Is 
there a similar solution for labels?

NB: I work with MapServer 6.1-dev.

Thank you in advance

i'm using mapserver 6.1.

i'm using a timeline and the legend must change each year but don't want to
write all 5 class from 1997 to 2011.
with a variable i could have only 5 class in my mapfile and when i will
insert 2012's data, it will work automatically 

what's your idea ?

Message-ID: <027801cce5b9$57a540a0$06efc1e0$@firstbasesolutions.com>

We're having some problems with MapCache with a fully-seeded cache covering
a small geographic extent.  

If the tileset definition doesn't have a restricted_extent, then any
requests outside the cache extents are supposed to return blank tiles, and
those blank tiles are being saved to the cache directory structure as
symlinks.  I want to avoid that, for two reasons:
   1. There will be lots of requests outside the cache extent, and I want to
avoid creating hundreds of thousands of symlinks (and empty directories)
   2. The cache was originally seeded as user "root", but the MapCache web
service runs as another user (either "apache" or the nginx user), and that
user cannot write to the cache directory.  

If instead I set the grid (inside the tileset definition) to have a
restricted_extent,  then any requests outside the cache extents throw an
error.  

Is there some way force MapCache to return a blank tile for requests outside
the restricted_extent, without saving that tile into the cache?

If your <tileset> does not contain a <source> element, then it is
considered read only and the caches will never be updated. In that
sense you would have a slightly different mapcache.xml file for your
seeder than for your webserver.
As for returning blank tiles, you have the <errors> directive that
does that (set it to empty_img)

Subject: [mapserver-users] Problem with mapfile path in MS 6.0.1
Message-ID: <4EFF8BB964547748A07CA32961810C041CF28E29@SOM-TEAQASMAIL1.som.w2k.state.me.us>

I'm trying to migrate an application from 5.6 to 6.0.1.  The basic HTML
loads correctly, but it is having trouble finding the path to the
mapfile.  Here are two lines of code specifying the map path and file:

 

$_SESSION['map_path']="/ms4w_303/apps/mgs/maps/";

$_SESSION['map_file']="ipmapp1_local_enhanced.map";

 

And when I try to load the app, here is the error:

 

Warning: mapObj::__construct(): [MapServer Error]:
msProcessProjection(): No such file or directory in
C:\ms4w_303\apps\mgs\htdocs\drawMap.php on line 219 Fatal error:
Uncaught exception 'MapScriptException' with message 'Failed to open map
file /ms4w_303/apps/mgs/maps/ipmapp1_local_enhanced.map' in

mapObj->__construct('/ms4w_303/apps/...') #1 {main} thrown in
C:\ms4w_303\apps\mgs\htdocs\drawMap.php on line 219

 

I triple-checked the path and I know this to be correct.  The
application had the same file and path structure in 5.6.  I'm checking
permissions but as far as I can tell these are OK.

Can you call the tile image from outside of the client? You might just be able to right click on the busted image and open it in its own window. In Firefox under "Tools->Page Info" you can also get access to the underlying image call. That will allow you to get at the underlying error message and you can debug from there.

Either the attribute 'ident' doesn't exist in the layer or something dies further down the labeling pipeline (missing font?). If you comment out the labelitem and set class TEXT (e.g. TEXT 'testing') do you get the same error?

Ok, to be more specific, when I comment the line " LABELITEM 'IDENT' " in my
mapfile, I can see my layer of point. But when I uncomment the same line, I
get a pink screen of death.

Why?????

By the way, I'm using GeoMOOSE, but I don't know if the problem come from
this app.

I'd call this a bug. Question is what size to use if sizeunits are specified. I don't have a good suggestion for that, anyone? One idea for an immediate workaround would be to create an image ahead of time and use KEYIMAGE to reference it instead.

Does someone know if this is some kind of a bug or it is supposed to be so? Should the legend symbol box size really depend on sizeunits? Or should I report it as a bug?

Thanks for the help but I think I'm misunderstanding mapcache at a more
basic level.

What is the mapcachealias?  In the apache httpd.conf file (using the latest
MS4W), there is

MapCacheAlias /mapcache "C:/ms4w/apps/mapcache/mapcache.xml"

How does that relate to my own mapservices?   What changes do I need to
make to have them cached?  My mapservices typically look like

http://servername/myservice?LAYERS=layer1,layer2,...&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&..
..


Something else that seems strange is when looking at the demo (
http://servername/mapcache/dem/wms), it makes available additional layers
based on entries in the current mapcache.xml file.  When I try to select my
own service through the demo interface, I see that it makes a GetMap
request with LAYERS = tileset name.  Does the name I define for the tileset
in mapcache.xml have to be specific to my map service?  or any special
requirements?

Thanks for your help.

- John

Never mind- worked it out with a string of edits.  Part of it was
changing "new mapObject" to "ms_newMapObject".

As you see, I tried to retrieve sensor data from a shapefile. The message
returned by the SOS is:

Although I put 6 observations into the shapefile but the SOS doesn't return

Checking the log.. we see that error:

gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory

which is strange to me. I think that you'll get the same error just 
trying typing gcc or cpp. Could you try to reinstall build-essential?

sudo apt-get install --reinstall build-essential

otherwise... make sure you are using a bash shell environment. I've seen 
a post on the web talking about something like that.

Subject: [mapserver-users] using pattern or nullformat in templates -
	Mapserver 5.4
Message-ID: <36CA828A36E29F45B7CF0A1766E5DFA30CDA09@swmail01.r8nssis.local>

Hello,

I am trying to display an address as part of my identify parcel template.  The template works fine for parcels that have a valid address.  However, for parcels that do not have an address a "0" is displayed (the zip field is a integer).  How can I change the results so that either nothing, or a message such as "no site address" is displayed?


When I try to use pattern:

*       [item name="PHYZIP" pattern=/^[1-9]/]   - displays the address if there is one, or "1/]" is there is not an address.
*       [item name="PHYZIP" pattern="/^[1-9]/"]  - crashes

Nullformat appears to only work with strings that are null, not integers that are 0.  Is there a way to set a nullvalue, for example:
*       [item name="PHYZIP" nullformat="No Physical Address" nullvalue="0"]

Thanks

Hello,

I may have answered my own question.  The following line works, however it has a mismatched number of brackets so it could be better written.

 [item name="PHYZIP" nullformat="No Site Address" pattern=/^[1-9]

How would I rewrite this line of the template so that it is clean?

Thank You

Patterns are always a regex so the //'s aren't needed. Try:

  [item name="PHYZIP" pattern="^[1-9]"]

Subject: [mapserver-users] Release of MapServer 6.0.2 and 5.6.8
Message-ID: <4F32E55A.1040402@mapgears.com>

The MapServer team announces the release of MapServer versions 6.0.2 and 
5.6.8.

No new functionality has been added. 6.0.2 is a maintenance release that 
fixes a few issues found since 6.0.1 including a recently discovered 
security vulnerability in the handling of WFS filters inside a SLD. The 
list of fixes since 6.0.1 is included at the end of this message.

Versions 5.6.8 includes fixes for the same WFS Filter security 
vulnerability plus a few bug fixes that were backported since the last 
official release. See the 5.6.8 HISTORY.TXT file for additional information.


Source and binary downloads:
----------------------------

The source code is available at:

     http://mapserver.org/download.html

The binary distributions listed in the download page should be updated 
shortly with binaries for the new 6.0.2 release (and in some cases 5.6.8).

The MapServer Team



Version 6.0.2 (2012-02-08):
---------------------------

- Fix security issue with quote escape in WFS GetFeature Filter (#4087)

- Fixed lexer buffer size issue with single quotes in a string  (#4175)

- Raster layer fails to be drawn if the window is less than half a pixel 
(#4172)

- Fixed SLD with FILTER doesn't apply properly to database layers (#4112)

- Fixed a problem with calls to labelInImage() (maplabel.c) when label 
gutter
   and label buffers are both used (#3303). Also changed the usage 
around that
   function to make it easier to understand. At a result the
   "labelcache_map_edge_buffer" processing option (i.e. gutter) can be 
provided
   as a positive or negative value. (closes #1355 too)

- Added label->style markers to collision detection (#4133)

- Fixed single pixel coverages in WCS 2.0 (#4110)

- Fixed subsetting in WCS 2.0 (#4099)

- Fixed segfault when calling classObj::updateFromString() with SYMBOL

Steve,

Thank you for your reply.

Using [item name="PHYZIP" pattern="^[1-9]"] caused an internal service error.

Patterns are always a regex so the //'s aren't needed. Try:

  [item name="PHYZIP" pattern="^[1-9]"]

Hello,

I may have answered my own question. The following line works, however it has a mismatched number of brackets so it could be better written.

[item name="PHYZIP" nullformat="No Site Address" pattern=/^[1-9]

How would I rewrite this line of the template so that it is clean?

Thank You

Subject: using pattern or nullformat in templates - Mapserver 5.4


Hello,

I am trying to display an address as part of my identify parcel template.  The template works fine for parcels that have a valid address.  However, for parcels that do not have an address a "0" is displayed (the zip field is a integer).  How can I change the results so that either nothing, or a message such as "no site address" is displayed?


When I try to use pattern:

*         [item name="PHYZIP" pattern=/^[1-9]/]   - displays the address if there is one, or "1/]" is there is not an address.
*         [item name="PHYZIP" pattern="/^[1-9]/"]  - crashes

Nullformat appears to only work with strings that are null, not integers that are 0.  Is there a way to set a nullvalue, for example:
*         [item name="PHYZIP" nullformat="No Physical Address" nullvalue="0"]

Thanks

Hi alls,

TinyOWS 1.0.0 official release is (finally) out !

You could download it from:
<http://tinyows.org/tracdocs/release/tinyows-1.0.0.tar.bz2>
(checksum 25c9567848b97a3ad9a111c0053e4248)

ChangeLog:
 - Configuration change with broken backward compatibility:
    * default config file is now /etc/tinyows.xml
    * default schema dir is now $PREFIX/share/tinyows/schema
    * rename server and prefix to ns_uri ans ns_prefix
    * rename wfs_display_bbox to display_bbox
 - Encoding support, written by Carlos Ruiz: cruizch at gmail.com
 - Estimated_bbox option for GetCapabilities response (default is false)
 - Schema cache for fast-cgi mode (huge performance improvement on
transaction operations)
 - Improve drasticaly GetCapabilities performance on huge layer (Thanks to
Nicklas Aven for report)
 - Add ability to use different names for layer and storage table (table
property)
 - Mapfile config file support (use related TINYOWS_MAPFILE env. var)
 - Debug option available from configure step (--enable-debug)
 - Improve result from --check option
 - Add wfs_default_version config file option, to set server default WFS
Version
 - Add gml_ns config file option, to set if any, layers properties using
GML namespace
 - Add log_level config file option, to allow more granularity in log output
 - PostGIS version init check (support 1.5 and coming 2.0)
 - Update XSD schema (WFS, FE, GML), so need a new 'make install' step if
you upgrade
 - CITE WFS-T 1.0.0 SF-0 full compliant (require PostGIS 2.0)
 - CITE WFS-T 1.1.0 SF-0 full compliant (require PostGIS 2.0)
 - Lot of debug stuff (a special thanks to Boris Leukert, Jukka Rahkonen
and Even Rouault for detailled reports)
 - Security fixes (SQL Injection vulnerability - Reported by Even Rouault)

Thanks again to all folks who contributed on it !

John,

The usual raster strategies should apply.  Build overviews, and tile the
image.  Beyond that more memory for caching and faster computers may help
a bit.

Thx Steve,

Shouldn't the request somehow take into account the KEYSIZE, that is always in pixels?

Anyway, I have reported this (before your email) as a bug: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4177

In the mean time, yes I could use KEYIMAGE, I just wanted to avoid it. Or I can make my points circles and use pixels for SIZEUNITS

Subject: [mapserver-users] replacing layer with different scales.
Message-ID: <1328774233333-4378365.post@n6.nabble.com>

Hello

I need help with the mapfile of the mapserver and I hope you can help me.
I want to replace one layer with another at different scale, but I get
always an Error.
In the documentation I read that I can replace it with the same name
according to different scales: 
"The name should be unique, unless one layer replaces another at different
scales."
Our Mapserver uses also Tilecache and I'm not sure if the error comes from
the mapserver or tilecache.

Thanks for your help

Here is my mapfile:

Message-ID: <715BFDBEEEDA5245AF02E1C1DCE01C370786A342@SV025.infoterra-global.com>

Hi,

 

Can I ask whether Mapserver 5.6 is fully WMS 1.3.0 compliant? I see lots
of occurrences of OWS_1_3_0 within the code which makes me think it
should.

 

I have had to make the following changes in order to get my 1.3 requests
going through OK. Could somebody tell me whether or not I should be
doing this, i.e. are these separate bits of functionality that shouldn't
support 1.3.0 yet:

 

mapwms.c

=========

Line 92 in function msWMSException, added:

      else if (nVersion <= OWS_1_3_0)

        wms_exception_format = "XML";   /* WMS 1.3.0 */

This was to allow me to get through the exception parameter checking on
line 739 of function msWMSLoadGetMapParams (I believe WMS 1.3 has XML as
its default exception parameter).

 

mapwmslayer.c

=============

Line 518 in function msBuildWMSLayerURL, added:

      case OWS_1_3_0:

Also changed the error message to say it supports up to 1.3.0 rather
than 1.1.1.

 

I am hoping these changes won't cause me problems later on, but for now
they allow me to make 1.3.0 requests.

 

Regards,

Darren

Hi,

Name the real layers as MIPARE_A_CLOSE and MIPARE_A_FAR and then make requests with the grouping layer name &layers=MIPARE and it should start to work.

to answer your question : Yes.
i,m using 6.1-dev

here a one of the mapfile's class :
CLASS
    NAME "<70%"
    EXPRESSION  ([taux_infra_personne]<(0.7*[taux_infra_personne_qc]))
    GROUP "2010"
    STYLE
        OUTLINECOLOR    0 0 0
        COLOR           0 254 51
    END
    LABEL
        ALIGN           CENTER
        COLOR           10 0 0
        OUTLINECOLOR    250 255 255
        ANTIALIAS       FALSE
        TYPE            TRUETYPE
        FONT            "arialbd"
        SIZE            9
    END
END

all i want, it is the NAME would be like the EXPRESSION :
    NAME ([taux_infra_personne]<(0.7*[taux_infra_personne_qc]))
    EXPRESSION  ([taux_infra_personne]<(0.7*[taux_infra_personne_qc]))

According to this http://mapserver.org/cgi/runsub.html#parameters-supported
it seems that you can not use run-time substitution for a class name

[mapserver-users] variable in tag NAME of a CLASS









Can we put a variable or a attribute in the tag NAME of a CLASS ?
something like this : NAME "[patate]"
according to my tests
it do not seems but if someone can confirm

We could always size symbols relative to the KEYSIZE but if you do that then relative differences between wide and narrow lines or large and small markers would be lost. If units are in pixels then one could compute a global scaling factor across all layers so that differences are preserved. Doesn't help with non-pixel units.

Thx Steve,

Shouldn't the request somehow take into account the KEYSIZE, that is always in pixels?

Anyway, I have reported this (before your email) as a bug: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4177

In the mean time, yes I could use KEYIMAGE, I just wanted to avoid it. Or I can make my points circles and use pixels for SIZEUNITS

Message-ID: <CAAT161+d1T0BauZBo21fXTONk59OYEc+b9KgTwu2-LBiVR2=0g@mail.gmail.com>

Can we put OPACITY on a LABEL :

 CLASS
    NAME "R?gion administrative"
    EXPRESSION (([no_reg_admin] in '%RES_CO_REG%' ) AND ('[couleur]' =
'VERT'))
    GROUP "select"
    TEXT "[no_reg_admin]"
    STYLE
        COLOR 51 204 51
        OUTLINECOLOR 139 35 35
        WIDTH 10
    END
    LABEL
        COLOR 212 212 212
        OUTLINECOLOR    250 255 255
        ANTIALIAS       FALSE
        TYPE            TRUETYPE
        FONT            "arialbd"
        SIZE           50
        STYLE
            OPACITY 23
        END
    END
END

and my outputformat is :

OUTPUTFORMAT
    NAME "png"
    MIMETYPE "image/png"
    DRIVER "AGG/PNG"
    EXTENSION "png"
    IMAGEMODE RGBA
    TRANSPARENT ON
    FORMATOPTION          "INTERLACE=OFF"
END

it should work but my label is not transparent
is it a FONT problem ?

Open a trac ticket and cc me on it, it shouldn't be very difficult to
implement. With a bit of funding it could probably be added rather
quickly.

	correctly?
Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A63069713@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

GDAL was made to utilise Spatialite spatial index effectively if it exists with ticket
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4212
After this change ogr2ogr with -spat bounding box query is much faster.  However, when testing MS4W 3.0.4beta1 which comes with GDAL 1.9, the rendering speed of Spatialite data with Mapserver is pretty slow. It is evenly slow when zoomed out and zoomed in which makes me believe that the spatial index is perhaps not used.

Could it be that Mapserver does not utilise the improved method that was implemented for GDAL 1.9 when it is doing spatial queries from Spatialite?

There is no native support for Spatialite in MapServer, it's all through GDAL/OGR.

Hi,

OK, lets put it this way:
Is it sure that Mapserver is firing the BBOX query so that GDAL/OGR understands to follow the path that is implemented in http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/23008
instead of making an inefficient MBRIntersects()  query or some other slow query?

I do not believe that a user like me has a possibility to check what really happens with Spatialite like I can do with PostGIS and Oracle because Spatialite does not collect a log file.

The changeset in OGR is in the spatialite driver so it doesn't look like a program using the OGR APIs would need to do anything special. Someone familiar with the OGR driver will have to weigh in I suspect...

After this change ogr2ogr with -spat bounding box query is much faster.  However, when testing MS4W 3.0.4beta1 which comes with GDAL 1.9, the rendering speed of Spatialite data with Mapserver is pretty slow. It is evenly slow when zoomed out and zoomed in which makes me believe that the spatial index is perhaps not used.

Could it be that Mapserver does not utilise the improved method that was implemented for GDAL 1.9 when it is doing spatial queries from Spatialite?

Does the OGR backend of MapServer always use OGR_L_SetSpatialFilter() ? I've not
MapServer source code under my eyes right now, but I'm wondering if there's not
a different code path according to if you specify in the mapfile a OGR layer
name or a OGR SQL.

I would suggest you use a WMS/WFS service by using Geoserver or mapserver on top of your Postgis database, then connect to the web service with OpenLayers.

Cheers,

   Is there someone that can give an example 
of how to access a PostGIS database from openlayer 
and then displays it to the openlayer?

Best regards

Subject: [mapserver-users] Redraw only one layer
Message-ID: <213451328898403@web61.yandex.ru>

Hi
Sorry for my bad English.

I use mapscript for .Net.
I have a some layers:
  layer1: off
  layer2: off
  layer3: on
  layer4: on
......
 layer_N: on
 
I turn on layer1 and mapserver very long time  redraw map.
I turn on layer2 and mapserver very long time  redraw map again.
I think, that mapserver redraw all layers every time.

How I can force mapserver(by mapscript) draw only one layer (layer1 or layer2) if extent not changed and other layers not changed.

Yours sincerely,
Sev

Message-ID: <CAKPYEgfkwyZnAHpFoGEXGNZhe80D332seTgs2xxVO7fAf1dn7Q@mail.gmail.com>

Hi List,

I'm following the
instructions<http://www.mapserver.org/installation/php.html#obtaining-compiling-and-installing-php-and-the-php-mapscript-module>on
the Mapserver website to install the PHP module, but I'm confused by
this line:

Copy the php_mapscript.so library to your PHP extensions directory, and
then use the dl() function to load the module at the beginning of your PHP
scripts. See also the PHP function
extension_loaded()<http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.extension-loaded.php>to
check whether an extension is already loaded.

I just re-downloaded and unzipped mapserver-6.0.1 but I don't see the
php_mapscript.so library anywhere.

Also, is there a way that I check if I compiled Mapserver with
'*?with-php=DIR'
*I compiled it for CentOS Linux a few months ago and cannot remember all of
the options that I chose.

Thanks,
David

You can't w/MapServer. Layers are composited into a single image. You could use something on the client (e.g. OpenLayers, GeoMoose, etc...) to composite separate images.

Hi,

Sorry about long message but I like pretty much about the idea to be able to send Mapserver, mapfiles and data in one single package so that the end user would only need to unzip, launch Mapserver and enjoy. With the package like the one I am pointing later in this message it is already possible, but the resulting service is not fast enough. However, GDAL is pretty fast with Spatialite so I believe and hope that there is just some minory thing to adjust on the Mapserver side for making it ten times faster with Spatialite than it is now.

I prepared a package for demonstrating why I believe that Mapserver does not make queries in the best possible way.

The package is rather big because it contains the whole MS4W 3.0.4beta1 and mapfiles and a Spatilite database from OpenStreetMap data. It is ready to use on Windows after doing these steps:

- Dowload from http://latuviitta.org/documents/MS_GDAL_Spatialite_test.zip
- Unzip to a root of any disk drive
- Open a command window, go to [disk_letter]:\ms4w\apache\bin and give command "httpd"

First, make a query with ogrinfo. GDAL 1.9.0 is included in the package, just go to \ms4w\ first and run the setenv.bat first.

D:\ms4w\data>ogrinfo -so berlin.sqlite osm_line -spat 1496458.316816 6889766.373
154 1497120.112054 6890295.209530

This will be pretty fast.

Now send the following url with a browser. It will make Mapserver to query the same layer 

http://localhost:8060/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/osm_maps/osm_wms.map&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&WIDTH=663&HEIGHT=530&LAYERS=roadsclose_01&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&BBOX=1496457.8169701756,6889765.873308353,1497120.611899381,6890295.70937544&SRS=EPSG:3857&STYLES=

I suppose it will take a few seconds before the image is ready.  For me it took 9,1 seconds. Here is the full listing about what I got into log file with DEBUG 5

Does the OGR backend of MapServer always use OGR_L_SetSpatialFilter() ? I've not
MapServer source code under my eyes right now, but I'm wondering if there's not
a different code path according to if you specify in the mapfile a OGR layer
name or a OGR SQL.

Hi, do you want to edit the features in that database? or you just want to
render the features ?

cheers,
Gabi

Hi,

Perhaps it is not the spatial index at all, or it is not the most important part? It looks like OGR is using Spatialite through a connection pool and creating a new connection and pool is pretty heavy.  A first aid with a map with many layers is to use PROCESSING "CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER" even when running Mapserver as cgi.  It can save a couple of seconds per layer which makes a very big difference with the OSM default WMS group (from 40 sec to 10 sec) . However, "CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER" cannot help with the pretty slow initial time but it would need some other kind of optimisation.

Aihe: Re: [mapserver-users] Does Mapserver utilise Spatialite spatial   index correctly?

Hi,

Sorry about long message but I like pretty much about the idea to be able to send Mapserver, mapfiles and data in one single package so that the end user would only need to unzip, launch Mapserver and enjoy. With the package like the one I am pointing later in this message it is already possible, but the resulting service is not fast enough. However, GDAL is pretty fast with Spatialite so I believe and hope that there is just some minory thing to adjust on the Mapserver side for making it ten times faster with Spatialite than it is now.

I prepared a package for demonstrating why I believe that Mapserver does not make queries in the best possible way.

The package is rather big because it contains the whole MS4W 3.0.4beta1 and mapfiles and a Spatilite database from OpenStreetMap data. It is ready to use on Windows after doing these steps:

- Dowload from http://latuviitta.org/documents/MS_GDAL_Spatialite_test.zip
- Unzip to a root of any disk drive
- Open a command window, go to [disk_letter]:\ms4w\apache\bin and give command "httpd"

First, make a query with ogrinfo. GDAL 1.9.0 is included in the package, just go to \ms4w\ first and run the setenv.bat first.

D:\ms4w\data>ogrinfo -so berlin.sqlite osm_line -spat 1496458.316816 6889766.373
154 1497120.112054 6890295.209530

This will be pretty fast.

Now send the following url with a browser. It will make Mapserver to query the same layer

http://localhost:8060/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/osm_maps/osm_wms.map&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&WIDTH=663&HEIGHT=530&LAYERS=roadsclose_01&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&BBOX=1496457.8169701756,6889765.873308353,1497120.611899381,6890295.70937544&SRS=EPSG:3857&STYLES=

I suppose it will take a few seconds before the image is ready.  For me it took 9,1 seconds. Here is the full listing about what I got into log file with DEBUG 5

Does the OGR backend of MapServer always use OGR_L_SetSpatialFilter() ? I've not
MapServer source code under my eyes right now, but I'm wondering if there's not
a different code path according to if you specify in the mapfile a OGR layer
name or a OGR SQL.

Jukka,

I'm currently analyzing your test case. Currently, I'm just using the mapserv 
executable from command line and after several consecutive runs, it stabilizes 
around 1.7 second to run

REQUEST_METHOD=GET 
QUERY_STRING="map=/ms4w/osm_maps/osm_wms.map&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&WIDTH=663&HEIGHT=530&LAYERS=roadsclose_01&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&BBOX=1496457.8169701756,6889765.873308353,1497120.611899381,6890295.70937544&SRS=EPSG:3857&STYLES=" 
mapserv > /dev/null

Not as bad as what you are seing, but I believe it could be made faster. For 
the record my machine is a Core i5 750 with 4GB RAM, Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.

I've found 2 main areas that are time inefficient :

1) The opening of the DB needs some time to enumerate the layers.

2) The spatial index is not taken into account with your mapfiles. This is due 
to using stuff like "DATA "select geometry, osm_id ,highway,ref, name, tunnel 
from osm_line where highway is not null order by z_order"" that causes OGR to 
return a 'select layer' and not a table layer. Table layer currently benefit 
from spatial index when SetSpatialFilter() is called on them, but select 
layers do not. So you end up enumerating all features returned by the SQL 
request in the DATA.

For 1), I'm looking if it wouldn't be possible for the OGR SQLite driver to 
defer that enumeration
For 2), I'm looking if it wouldn't be possible for the OGR SQLite driver to 
modify the provided SQL request to insert in it the spatial filter, at least in 
simple cases (no join, no union).

I've commited improvements in GDAL trunk for both points ( 
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/23944 and 
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/23945 ) that make the above request go 
from 1.7 sec to 0.54 sec . I don't think there's any more significant speed 
gain to expect now (at least on OGR side).

Actually, I found a new improvement (committed in  
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/23946) that make the query time go down 
to 0.07 sec (*) ! There was a slowness when opening the layer due to the 
presence of an ORDER BY clause in the DATA string, that was evaluated before 
setting the spatial filter.

(*) For comparison, I translated your database to Postgis, and set-up the 
connection mapfile to use that Postgis database (still through OGR, not the 
MapServer Postgis backend). The same request with OGR PG is run in 0.18 sec.

Awesome!  About 25 times faster in the evening than it was in the morning. My opinion is that because Spatialite seems to be, at least in this case, more that two times faster backend for Mapserver than PostGIS it should lead to some intensive and controlled testing now.

Jukka,

I've continued playing with your OSM data.

I've got extra performance by adding attribute indexes, so that every field you 
use in a WHERE clause is indexed. For example for the roadsclose, railways and 
landuse layers, you could create the following indexes:

CREATE INDEX idx_osm_line_railway ON osm_line(railway)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_line_highway ON osm_line(highway)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_landuse ON osm_polygon(landuse)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_leisure ON osm_polygon(leisure)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_amenity ON osm_polygon(amenity)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_aeroway ON osm_polygon(aeroway)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_natural ON osm_polygon(natural)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_highway ON osm_polygon(highway)
CREATE INDEX idx_osm_polygon_waterway ON osm_polygon(waterway)

Best regards,

Even

Subject: [mapserver-users] Mapserver + PostGIS ==> Blank Screen
Message-ID: <CAB71Fua9yDnJFspOjB-mCzBoeYSf4L6YPX7-NxWxKbkUhynzWw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I'm trying to get Mapserver connected with PostGIS. PostGIS is holding
a shape2pgsql contourline import in the table "atest" while a test has
the following columns (shape2pgsql default):

--------------------------------------
| Actions | gid | id | height | geom |
--------------------------------------

Quantum GIS picks the conection up perfectly to atest but with
Mapserver I just get a blank screen - or the color of IMAGECOLOR [. .
.] definition in test-2.map definitions.

Somehow it seems like I got the connection between Mapserver and
PostGIS running - at least the debug.log doesn't complain. But still
I'm not seeing any of my contour lines as I'm used to by Quantum GIS
;(

Could someone give me a hint of what I'm missing out or where my mistake is?
I got the feeling that it is either has something to do with the DATA
property or the projection properties ?

The Link with which I call the mapserv binary is:

http://192.168.10.15/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=./Maps/test.map&mode=map
But then it complains:
msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Unable to initialize image.
msPrepareImage(): General error message. Image dimensions not
specified. msCalculateScale(): General error message. Invalid image
width or height.

So I changed it to the following:
http://192.168.10.15/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=./Maps/test.map&mode=map&mapsize=600+800
which results in no errors but therefore in a blank screen with a
clean debug.log ...

Even this one wont change anything:
http://192.168.10.15/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=./Maps/test.map&mode=map&mapsize=600+800&layer=Contour


. . . my test-2.map definition is below:

P.S.: TEMPLATE "./Maps/test.map" does exist and is read and writeable
to the user which runs the webserver (Apache => User: www)
CONFIG "PROJ_LIB" "/usr/local/share/proj/" should also be valid:

Cherly,

   One issue could be that you've asked Mapserver to render the entire 
world:

EXTENT    -90 -180 90 180

into a small image:

mapsize=600+800

Adjust the extents of the output image to be the extent of you contour 
data.  I see that you've given that in your LAYER definition

             EXTENT        143 -20 145 -19

so try that for the map extent (but I think it would be valid only if 
the contours were stored in a Geographic system and not a Projected 
system).  What SRS are you storing your data in?  The same as your 
display (EPSG:4326)?

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Hi Brent,

Thanks for your reply.

The SRS my data is stored in WGS84.

Unfortunately, I am not getting configuration file right. I adjusted the
map EXTENT to something smaller,

Map

Extent 16 -28 25 -16


The layer extent I also adjusted to the output image of the contour data,

Layer

Extent 17.002 -20.965 18.007 -20.002

I played around with the figures a little but I get this error message at
all times,

"msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'Contour'.
msPostGISLayerWhichShapes(): Query error. Error (ERROR: function
geomfromtext(unknown, integer) does not exist LINE 1: ...R'),'hex') as
geom,"gid" from atest where geom && GeomFromTe... ^ HINT: No function
matches the given name and argument types. You might need to add explicit
type casts. ) executing query: select
encode(ST_AsBinary(ST_Force_2D("geom"),'NDR'),'hex') as geom,"gid" from
atest where geom && GeomFromText('POLYGON((15.8348164627364
-28,15.8348164627364 -16,25.1651835372636 -16,25.1651835372636
-28,15.8348164627364 -28))',4326)"

Since this is my first time configurating a mapfile, I am unsure of what is
essential and what not, thus, I copied and pasted the script and adjusted
it to my CONNECTION details. I am not too sure whether it is vital to have
both a "map extent" and a "layer extend"?

Do you perhaps have any hints in this regard?

Best Regards
Cheryl

Yikes!   That looks like a compatibility problem.  PostGIS has been 
changing their function names (e.g. from "GeomFromText" to 
"ST_GeomFromText"), and I don't  think Mapserver has kept up.  Can you 
use an older version of PostGIS (<2.0)?

Can I draw complex label as attachment file by mapserver?
I think I can draw the label if I  separate the label for 3 field and apply "offset" property, 
but may be  exists more standard path?

Hi Mike,

Thanks for getting back to me. Worked a treat, thanks!!

Ended up with "prosjektnu = '%pn%' or '%pn%' = '\%pn\%'" on the filter

Tom,

What I am using with a database connection is a default value of "1=1"
so
that is always true, it returns all records.

The php_mapscript.so will be in the mapscript/php directory IIF you 
compiled MapServer with the appropriate option. I think you can open the 
config.log file to see if you have enabled the php binding when you 
compiled MS initially.

Awesome!  About 25 times faster in the evening than it was in the morning. My opinion is that because Spatialite seems to be, at least in this case, more that two times faster backend for Mapserver than PostGIS it should lead to some intensive and controlled testing now.

With existing versions you'd have to use multiple layers and offsets but it's possible that collision detection would mess with the 3 components and you'd be left with partials. 

That said we just committed an initial implementation of RFC 77 which allows for the definition of multiple labels within a class. Each can draw content from different fields in the data and is rendered with different settings so you can change font, size, color etc... They're considered 1 label for collision detection purposes so no partials...

Configuration looks like:

LABELITEM 'big_letter'
CLASS
  ... styles ...
  LABEL
    FONT 'arial-bold'
    SIZE 24
    POSITION CC
    ...
  END
  LABEL
    FONT 'arial'
    SIZE 8
    TEXT '[subscript_number]' # behaves just like class->text
    POSITION LR
    OFFSET ... # probably have to play with values here
    ...
  END
  LABEL
    FONT 'arial-bold'
    SIZE 8
    TEXT '([superscript_number])' # behaves just like class->text
    POSITION UR
    OFFSET ... # probably have to play with values here
    ...
  END
END

Labels can also have expressions defined so you can conditionally display label components.

Anyway, if you're brave you'd need to use trunk. Remember this is brand new and perhaps a bit buggy but any testing/feedback is appreciated.

Steve

Hi all,

I have a projet that I need to place the label with a specific angle.

But, if I understand it well, to use the angle, we need to have a TYPE

Seriously, I don't know how to solve this.

Thanks in advance.

If you take angles out of it do you still see the error? The message you reference makes me think
it's a more basic problem like a file not existing or permissions being wrong on that file.

Subject: [mapserver-users] type Truetype error for label angle

Hi all,

I have a projet that I need to place the label with a specific angle.

But, if I understand it well, to use the angle, we need to have a TYPE
TRUETYPE, but I always get an error (pink screen of death) when I use this
type.

Seriously, I don't know how to solve this.

Thanks in advance.

Here is the error from the apache log file.

Couple of options depending on version:

  1) 6.x: buffer the points using a style geomtransform
  2) all versions: use layer SIZEUNITS to draw a circle symbol in miles

I think option 1 is more flexible but option 2 is probably faster.

We need to draw circles of 50 and 100 miles around a list of points.

How can we do this? 

Thanks

Thanks for your quick reply...

but no, if I comment the angle line, the error is still there. It really
comes from the truetype line.

Have a look in your FONTSET file

	FONTSET 	"/opt/mapping/maps/fonts/fontset.list"


and make sure the font file referenced by "tahoma" actually exists.  For 
example GeoMoose delivers a fontset.list file but not most of the fonts 
listed (it only delivers Open Data Bitstream Vera fonts).  E.g. try 
"vera_sans" as a font name.

Also check the case of the file name on both the file system and in
/opt/mapping/maps/fonts/fontset.list

Okay...now I'm ashamed...

Haha I've already looked inside the file fontset, but I've never asked
myself if the file "tahoma" was existing in the folder...I thought that
GeoMOOSE/MapServer was automatically loading the Microsoft Font...

Thanks to all of you guys!!! Now it works!!!! :D

Message-ID: <CAHBySPZ88nOG04+W_Dv16THUaFMRKpe6z8VF+Zbxjmd168pyJg@mail.gmail.com>

I'm upgrading a site from mapserver 5.6 to 6.0 and the attached symbol
has me stumped. I can't seem to replicate the style in 6.0.

My mapserver 5.6 definition that created the attached GIF is here:

SYMBOL
?NAME 'Circle_Open'
?TYPE ELLIPSE
?FILLED false
?POINTS 1 1 END
END

LAYER
?TYPE polygon
?TRANSPARENCY alpha
?CLASS
? ?STYLE
? ? ?COLOR 69 158 239
? ? ?OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 255
? ? ?SYMBOL 'Circle_Open'
? ? ?SIZE 1
? ?END
?END
END

In mapserver 6.0 I'm using the same SYMBOL definition. I have split
the outline into a separate STYLE block. But regardless of the SIZE or
WIDTH that I specify for the STYLE all I get is a solid fill. What am
I missing?

Thanks,
Rich

Message-ID: <4EFF8BB964547748A07CA32961810C041CFF0639@SOM-TEAQASMAIL1.som.w2k.state.me.us>

First of all, let me state that I am brand new to PostGIS and don't know
much about what I'm doing with it.  That being said, I am having trouble
displaying a PostGIS layer through MapServer.

 

Right now I'm just experimenting with PostGIS and simply trying to get a
layer to display.  I installed the Postgre and PostGIS 1.5.  I used the
shapefile loader to convert a couple shapefiles to PostGIS data.
Looking in pgAdmin, I see the tables do indeed exist for these layers.

 

So I built a MapServer map file.  Here is my connection strings:

 

DATA "the_geom from MylayerPoly"

CONNECTION "user=postgisuser password=MyPassword! dbname=postgistest
host=localhost port=5432"

CONNECTIONTYPE postgis

 

But the layer does not display.  Incidentally, I'm using GeoMoose as a
front end for testing, but that shouldn't matter here.

 

I did a mapserv -v at commandline, and I see the parameter
INPUT=POSTGIS.

 

So as far as I know it should work. Can anyone offer suggestions as to
what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thanks,

Bob

Bob,
   Typical problems are
         - the connecting user (postgisuser) does not have privilege to 
access the table
         - coordinate system is not specified in data (SRID=-1) and not 
in the mapfile either
         -  and others

Turn on the layer debug logging by adding

DEBUG 5

to your mapfile and looking a the log.  You can also execute the SQL 
statements shown in the log file using pgAdmin's SQL tool to see 
additional information.

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

Thanks Brent.  The postgis user SHOULD have access to the table, as that
is the table's owner.  Coordinate system is in the map file under
Projection.

 

Here is what the debug log showed me (Metwp100Poly is the actual name of
the table, and MAINE is the layer name):

Bob,
  Typical problems are 
        - the connecting user (postgisuser) does not have privilege to
access the table
        - coordinate system is not specified in data (SRID=-1) and not
in the mapfile either
        -  and others

Turn on the layer debug logging by adding 

DEBUG 5

to your mapfile and looking a the log.  You can also execute the SQL
statements shown in the log file using pgAdmin's SQL tool to see
additional information.
  



Best Regards,
Brent Fraser

shapefile loader to convert a couple shapefiles to PostGIS data.
Looking in pgAdmin, I see the tables do indeed exist for these layers.

 

So I built a MapServer map file.  Here is my connection strings:

 

DATA "the_geom from MylayerPoly"

CONNECTION "user=postgisuser password=MyPassword! dbname=postgistest
host=localhost port=5432"

CONNECTIONTYPE postgis

 

But the layer does not display.  Incidentally, I'm using GeoMoose as a
front end for testing, but that shouldn't matter here.

 

I did a mapserv -v at commandline, and I see the parameter
INPUT=POSTGIS.

 

So as far as I know it should work. Can anyone offer suggestions as to
what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thanks,

Bob

Is this a clue?  Looking at the debug, I see the following:

find_srid('','Metwp100Poly','the_geom') )

Notice the first parameter is blank.  What should be there?

Maybe.  I was just doing a load of a table to test TinyOWS and noticed 
the default is "-1" for shp2pgsql.  So I used the -s option:

shp2pgsql -s 4269 tl_2010_27_place10.shp  public.CensusCities > 
CensusCities.sql

Can you reload the table using an SRID on the commandline?

I'd use Brent's advice of always specifying a projection when loading 
the data into PG.  Then make sure your DATA statement uses that SRID:

   DATA "the_geom from test using SRID=4326 using unique id"

   or

   DATA "the_geom from test using SRID=-1 using unique id"

I try to document my usual steps at

Hi Bob,


I suggest you try testing with QGIS.

Easy to open the native postgis table & a mapserver WFS/WMS layer concurrently to ensure it is all working as it should.

Also ensure you have configured your Postgis (Postgres) database to allow applications such as mapserver to connect. For testing purposes, set access to the database to trusted for all in pb_hba.conf, & enable external connections in postgresql.conf, then restart the server to ensure the changes are activated.

You can also enable mapserver debugging & specify a log file to see what error is reported.
http://mapserver.org/optimization/debugging.html

You may also need to specify the unique ID column name & the SRID you are using in your DATA string, much like this one:
DATA "track_line from (select * from trip_track where trip_code = 'ind0701') as foo using unique id using srid 4326"

HTH,

?? Brent Wood

The error above is telling you that it can't even find the said table. 

Can you SELECT from this table successfully in PgAdmin?

Is it in a different schema than public, and perhaps that schema is not in the searchpath?

Does the postgisuser have access to this table?

I've been using the shapefile loader utility, and it also defaults to an
srs of -1.  I'm not sure of the command line syntax for this command,
after the shapefile name, so I was using the utility.  But entering an
SRS in that box, I still get the same thing in the error message with
the blank parameter.

CC'ing to mapserver-users list.

Similar requests with the 2 above outputformats work great on my local 
mapserver instance, so I suspect something wrong in your setup. If I issue the 
CSV request on your server, I see the following error message :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

The /usr/temp/ path look suspicious to me...

For any dataset, I always always always (did I say always?) start with

And I seem to recall needing to give some privileges on the 
spatial_ref_sys and geometry_columns  tables to the user.

Steve,

Many thanks for the help and we have just tested option 2 and that
works.

We are using 6.x but are not exactly sure how to use the geomtransform
to do this. Do you have  an example?

Regards

Ian

Couple of options depending on version:

  1) 6.x: buffer the points using a style geomtransform
  2) all versions: use layer SIZEUNITS to draw a circle symbol in miles

I think option 1 is more flexible but option 2 is probably faster.

I changed my Data statement similar to what you did here, Brent, and it
still comes up with an error, but the message shows that there is
something wrong with the select statement, so maybe this is another
clue:

 

prepare_database(): Query error. Error declaring cursor: ERROR:  syntax

Hi Bob,


I suggest you try testing with QGIS.

Easy to open the native postgis table & a mapserver WFS/WMS layer
concurrently to ensure it is all working as it should.

Also ensure you have configured your Postgis (Postgres) database to
allow applications such as mapserver to connect. For testing purposes,
set access to the database to trusted for all in pb_hba.conf, & enable
external connections in postgresql.conf, then restart the server to
ensure the changes are activated.

You can also enable mapserver debugging & specify a log file to see what
error is reported.
http://mapserver.org/optimization/debugging.html

You may also need to specify the unique ID column name & the SRID you
are using in your DATA string, much like this one:
DATA "track_line from (select * from trip_track where trip_code =
'ind0701') as foo using unique id using srid 4326"

First of all, let me state that I am brand new to PostGIS and don't know
much about what I'm doing with it.  That being said, I am having trouble
displaying a PostGIS layer through MapServer.

 

Right now I'm just experimenting with PostGIS and simply trying to get a
layer to display.  I installed the Postgre and PostGIS 1.5.  I used the
shapefile loader to convert a couple shapefiles to PostGIS data.
Looking in pgAdmin, I see the tables do indeed exist for these layers.

 

So I built a MapServer map file.  Here is my connection strings:

 

DATA "the_geom from MylayerPoly"

CONNECTION "user=postgisuser password=MyPassword! dbname=postgistest
host=localhost port=5432"

CONNECTIONTYPE postgis

 

But the layer does not display.  Incidentally, I'm using GeoMoose as a
front end for testing, but that shouldn't matter here.

 

I did a mapserv -v at commandline, and I see the parameter
INPUT=POSTGIS.

 

So as far as I know it should work. Can anyone offer suggestions as to
what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thanks,

Bob

I think we're out of the woods, and special thanks to TC Haddad for the
solution...

 

TC suggested that I check the upper/lower case of the table name.  I had
this correct, but it gave me an idea of something to try- I created a
new table of the same shapefile, only this time the table name is all
lower case.  Using that in my map file, the map image appears correctly.

 

Thanks everyone for their input!  I'm sure it won't be the last ou hear
from me on PostGIS, but at least we're off and running!

 

BB

I jumped the gun on the geomtransform idea. The support is there but because it operates at the style level buffer distances must be given in pixels and there's no easy way to convert a map distance (e.g. 10 miles) to pixels. I really should make some runtime constants (for example, extent, scale and cellsize) available to expressions- then you could do this.

Glad you picked option 2 to start.

Hi,

/usr/temp/ has 7777 rights and it is good enough for the MS_ERRORFILE...

Short history of my trials:
- half a year ago tried to set up ogroutput with no success
- read a message about using "temppath" in the mapfile and added that parameter
- SHPZIP and CSV outpur started to work and I was happy
- but in the same evening the "Failed to open result file" errors came back
- never again had a new success with that Linux server
- not a single success with several Windows computers
- last week tried the new MS4W 3.0.4beta1 on Windows
- succeeded to make ogroutput to work for a while
- was suspicious and restarted Apache and started to get "Failed to open result" file errors again

It can of course be that I am just repeating my own errors but weird is that I have received valid CSV an SHAPEZIP outputs but only for a while.

I updated the cgi-bin directory of my MS4W 3.0.4beta1 with the mapserv.exe and dll files taken from the brand new binaries from http://www.gisinternals.com/sdk/ (contains Mapserver and GDAL revisions r13144, r23972, respectively).

As a result Mapserver is really serving me 10, or 25 or even 40 times faster than it did before the update measured as WMS throughput (images/minute). The times include rendering times and all the lags in the system so the difference tells exactly how the end user feels it. Greatest enhancement is with close zooms because then the apatial index bites hardest. And at least with my computer Spatialite backend is clearly faster than PostGIS with the same data and it may be even faster than shapefiles but it is too early to say that really. But this is absolutely something worth more testing.

My test database is moderately sized and contains 100000 points, 90000 lines and 149000 polygons from OpenStreetMap data. I will myself do next trials with ten times bigger Spatialite database with something like million points, lines, and polygons. We do not have much bigger tables in our production. However, I do not believe we are changing from Oracle to SQLite/Spatialite very rapidly in our core business :)

Hi,

OpenStreetMap data tend to contain topology errors and Mapserver sends an empty map when it finds an error on one layer of a multi-layer map.
Cases are like this:
msOGRFileNextShape(): OGR error. TopologyException: side location conflict at 1.48639e+006 6.89386e+006
[Tue Feb 14 09:41:37 2012].113000 msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'landuse_layer1'.

Topology errors would be best to correct in the data but I wonder if Mapserver could be somehow more robust and just skip the faulty feature or that certain layer instead of giving in totally. Sometimes it would be better to get an incomplete map than no map at all.

Hello to all,

This is my first email on the list.
I have a problem, i cannot add layers to the map and i don?t why.
I added anothers and led all perfect. Now I can not. Iadded in the 
mapfile and config_default.xml but do not appear on the map.
I'm working with pmapper modifying the demo.

Can everybody give me any possible errors to the layers are not being 
added now? Is there a variable that limits the maximum number of layers?

Jukka,

This is actually an issue in OGR. If you put the same data in a 
shapefile, mapserver will serve it with no problem but when you go 
through the OGR interface, OGR is throwing the error. It might be 
possible to make the OGR driver in mapserver more forgiving, but that 
probably depends on whether or not the OGR error is recoverable and it 
can continue.

I would write a ticket for this issue and assign it to the OGR driver 
module.

Message-ID: <CAF_a5S+GYWTw1WEimjH1Do2Amjbi5-QP6ra_gHDS1_qYA_OXgg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I have two layers (poly_layer and point_layer) and using MapServer CGI
interface I wish to:
a) - let user click a polygon at 'poly_layer'
b) - then list attributes of 'point_layer' that are contained into the
polygon choosen at (a)

At my mapfile, both layers has layer->template property set and at CGI
interface (web->template) I'm passing:
- mode = featurequery
- slayer = poly_layer
- qlayer = point_layer

But after the click on map, got only a "not found" error.

Am I doing right use of this mode? Or for this need, is it better to
use another mode?

ps.: all layers are Mapinfo files and can't use PostGIS at this application.

Hi,

The development version of Openlayers has a new facility: smooth tile 
transition. When panning, the old image remains visible for 2.5 seconds 
under the new one, so as to make the panning process smoother. This 
works fine for static maps, but gives undesired effects with MapServer 
labels. Those are computed anew for every request, so e.g. labels for 
items at the corner of the map get a different position, to keep them 
inside the displayed map. This results in old and new labels being 
displayed next to one another for some time.

Is there an option in MapServer to constrain the labels to always have 
the same position respective to the geometry they are labeling?

google: mapserver geomtransform

this will let you fix the label point to the centroid of the object or 
some other positions.

The issue is that the label point is generally calculated based on the 
geometry of the object as clipped to the view port. So the geometry 
changes based on the view clipping and this causes the label point to 
also change. the geomtransform works on the original data and so the 
label point becomes fixed.

There is also a lot of label enhancements being added to trunk for the 
next release. You might want to look at rfc 77 [1] in additions to rfc 
72 [2].

I tested a bit with shapefiles with your Berlin OSM database. Even after adding 
spatial index (.qix) and attribute index (.idm & .idn) on fields in where 
clauses, it is a bit slower than spatialite. If you remove all columns from 
the DBF that are not necessary for the rendering, it improves things a bit 
again. You can also try the new special SQL command "RESIZE table_name" for 
shapefiles I've committed yesterday (see http://gdal.org/ogr/drv_shapefile.html 
) to adjust columns to their minimum needed size.

Subject: [mapserver-users] postgis raster query question
Message-ID: <CAKPYEgcKvZZf0ANoQO5v-CtgniX+7mKtDv9iLj46k=dZj=kCmw@mail.gmail.com>

Hello All,

I'm using mapserver to display some rasters as WMS layers using Openlayers.
At the moment I have all my rasters in a web-readable folder and it works
fine. I want to try accessing the rastes using postgis, but I'm not sure
exactly how to do this. I've read through this
http://mapserver.org/input/vector/postgis.html and the relevant part of
PostGIS in action. My original map file (which worked) looked like this:

LAYER
NAME "new_york_pop"
DATA    "/home//htdocs/data/new_york_pop.tif"
STATUS  OFF
TYPE    RASTER
METADATA
"wms_title"  "WMS new_york Raster"
"wms_srs"    "EPSG:900913"
END
END

I tried changing this to the following:

LAYER
NAME "new_york_pop"
TYPE    RASTER
CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS
CONNECTION "host=18.00.00.00 dbname=raster_analysis user=postgres
password=mypassword port=5434"
DATA "SELECT ST_AsTIFF(ST_Clip(r.rast, 1, p.geom, NULL, TRUE)) FROM
us_pop_800 AS r, cities AS p WHERE ST_Intersects(r.rast,  p.geom) AND
p.name= 'new_york'"
STATUS  OFF
METADATA
"wms_title"  "WMS new_york Raster"
"wms_srs"    "EPSG:900913"
END
END

The SQL query runs fine within the SQL console of Postgresql and returns a
few tiffs, but it does not work on mapserver. My mapserver error log shows
the following:

[Tue Feb 14 12:16:29 2012].918681 msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed
to draw layer named 'new_york_pop'.
[Tue Feb 14 12:16:29 2012].917535 msDrawMap(): rendering using outputformat
named png (AGG/PNG).
[Tue Feb 14 12:16:29 2012].918757 msDrawRasterLayerLow(): Unable to access
file. Corrupt, empty or missing file 'SELECT ST_AsTIFF(ST_Clip(r.rast, 1,
p.geom, NULL, TRUE)) FROM us_pop_raster AS r, cities AS p WHERE
ST_Intersects(r.rast, p.geom) AND p.name = 'new_york'' for layer
'new_york_pop'.
[Tue Feb 14 12:16:29 2012].918766 msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed
to draw layer named 'new_york_pop'.

I would appreciate any suggestions for debugging this. I have connected to
the postgresql database using a php file from the same location so
mapserver should have the correct permissions to connect (and my port is
5434, rather than the usual 5432).

Thank you,
David

I would like to increase the speed on my air photos.  I have created a uncompressed tiff, which Is fast however, the file size is much too large for my project.  On the other hand the file size of MrSID is appropriate, but it is slow even when using PROCESSING "OVERSAMPLE_RATIO=1.0."

Is there a happy medium between the two file formats?

Thanks

Hi,

Do geotiffs with -co tiled=YES -co compression=JPEG -co photometric=YCBCR and then gdaladdo with

--config COMPRESS_OVERVIEW JPEG --config PHOTOMETRIC_OVERVIEW YCBCR

I prefer external overviews nowadays.

Hello List,

We've been using mapcache_seed ( mapcache SVN checkout 13002 ) to build our caches mostly successfully so far, but recently have come up against an error which has only cropped up with a certain layer which includes our text & labels

The next step will be to checkout the latest SVN version. But we are currently mid-build with some other layers, so are waiting for them to finish before we do that. But thought  we'd fire it out to the list to see if anyone has any ideas as to what might be causing this?


Below is the mapcache config:

   <source name="src_text_update" type="wms">
      <http>
         <url>http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv601?</url>
      </http>
      <getmap>
         <params>
            <FORMAT>image/png</FORMAT>
            <LAYERS>text</LAYERS>
            <MAP>/opt/mapserver/mapfiles/m6scenz_topo_new.map</MAP>
            <TRANSPARENT>true</TRANSPARENT>
         </params>
      </getmap>
   </source>

   <tileset name="2012-02-02_text_cache_nztm">
      <source>src_text_update</source>
      <cache>disk</cache>
      <format>PNG</format>
      <grid>portalgridnztm1</grid>
      <metatile>5 5</metatile>
      <metabuffer>10</metabuffer>
   </tileset>


"labelcache_map_edge_buffer"                    "-10"    is set in mapserver WEB METADATA


Cheers

Is the error always reproducible ?

hi all,
Just to close this topic, I put it to work after the folloowing changes:

* mapfile
    - Tolerance = 0 at both layers (poly and point layer)
    - template is set at both layers
* web template
    - inserted a hidden html param named 'slayer' with value = poly_layer
    - inserted a radio html param named 'mode' with 'value' = featurequery

now, it's working! :-)

I prepared a new Spatialite database from the OSM data of Finland. It contains 230000 points, 480000 lines and 440000 polygons and takes 700 MB on a disk. I made indexes for everything that is used in the WHERE selections and the result is just wonderful.  If there is just few features to render the msDrawMap() takes just 0.01 - 0.10 seconds per layer (1000x800 sized output). And my computer is eight year old Windows WP with IDE disks and 1 GB of memory. Rendering lots of features takes naturally longer time but I do believe that technically GDAL/OGR/Mapserver side is in the order now and there is not much room for further improvements there.

Best way for improving the speed of the service from this point is to generalize the data for rendering at small scales. Spatialite has Simplify() and SimplifyPreserveTopolygy() functions so it will be very easy to create simplified versions of the data into the same database. Features which are unreasonably small for rendering at the target scale can be sorted out at the same. I can imagine that one day some clever individual will write a tool that automatically runs SQL script which creates a set of new tables with simplified geometries into Spatialite and at the same time writes a corresponding mapfile which collects those tables as scale dependent layers under one Mapserver layer group.  

By the way, it would be very nice if the full stop at TopologyExceptions could be avoided. My Spatialite databases are created by ogr2ogr and self-intersections did not stop OGR then so perhaps it can be made to tolerate them also in this case. Now I fixed this problem in a crude way by running "DELETE from osm_polygon where ST_IsValid(GEOMETRY)<=0".

Hi,

The bounding boxes are bit odd, check the EXTENTS of your mapfile and possibly wms_extent if you have set it.
  <SRS>EPSG:32632</SRS>
    <LatLonBoundingBox minx="6.54004" miny="35.2168" maxx="19.6148" maxy="47.1372" />
    <BoundingBox SRS=""
                minx="313371" miny="3.93368e+06" maxx="1.31209e+06" maxy="5.22041e+06" />
    <Layer queryable="1" opaque="0" cascaded="0">
        <Name>sostegni</Name>
        <Title>Sostegni</Title>
        <SRS>EPSG:32632</SRS>
        <LatLonBoundingBox minx="-177.507" miny="-8.2419e+12" maxx="173.211" maxy="8.2419e+12" />
        <BoundingBox SRS="EPSG:32632"
                    minx="-2.5e+07" miny="-2.5e+07" maxx="2.5e+07" maxy="2.5e+07" />

 Service itself is OK

I would guess that QGis is trying to do zoom to a best fit by investigating layer extents and resolution and because extents are so wide it makes unrealistically big sized request.  QGis will show the image if you zoom to correct location by coordinates or by opening a supporting vector file on the bottom. OpenJUMP had no problems for me.

There is a hack in postGIS that might work here:

update osm_polygon set GEOMETRY=ST_Buffer(GEOMERTY, 0.0) where 
ST_IsValid(GEOMETRY)<=0;

This will fix some if not all the polygons. Then run your delete 
afterwards to clean out the rest. This may/may not work with SpatiaLite.

Stange cause I actually got EXTENT from ogrinfo querying a postgis layer as
reported in this example
http://mapserver.org/input/vector/postgis.html#ogrinfo-examples

and here's the relevant output:

Extent: (313371.309628, 3933679.249407) - (1312087.106406, 5220406.386046)

...same error

Subject: [mapserver-users] Extract Layer Names from MapFile
Message-ID: <1329321949868-4472664.post@n6.nabble.com>

Is there a way to obtain a list of layer names from a mapfile.  I need to
compare a user defined list of layers with available layers in a mapfile.  I
would like to makes this dynamic but I don't see an easy way of returning a
list of layer names from the mapfile.  Any input would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

what about parsing the capabilities-xml?

I originally was thinking of parsing the getcapabilites but I don't want the
user to see the file.  I guess I could download the getcapabilites results,
parse the information and then create a list of layer names.  It seems a
little much for such a trivial task

I assume you want to do this in a javascript client, you could write a 
trivial php script and pass it the mapfile name and list of user layers 
and compare them on the server.

Maybe a better question is why do you need to compare them?

Your WMS seems to work fine for me in QGIS 1.7.3.
I tried the layer "MS".

Don't forget about the trusty shp2img utility, that does return each 
layer name from a mapfile.  I can imagine some js/php magic to parse 
that response.

Well, I believe I figured it out using Java.  I am able to use the URL Class
to get the xml from my GetCapabilites request.  Then, I created an
InputStream from the URL Class and pass the InputStream object into my Java
XML parser.  It's actually pretty slick.  Next, I'll try and plug it in to a
JSP page.  Thanks for all the advice and here is the codes for anyone else
who is interested.

import java.io.File;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
import org.w3c.dom.Node;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;

public class XMLReader {
  
  public static void main (String[] args) {
    try {
	  URL getCapabilities = new URL(<your getcapabilities wms request with
quotes>);
	  InputStream is = getCapabilities.openStream();
	
	  DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
	  DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
	  Document doc = db.parse(is);
	  doc.getDocumentElement().normalize();
	  NodeList nodeList = doc.getElementsByTagName("Layer");
	  
	  for (int s = 0; s < nodeList.getLength(); s++) {
	    Node fstNode = nodeList.item(s);
		if (fstNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {

Steve,

Thanks again for the info so far.

Testing this today we realise (not surprisingly) that both the size and
width of the symbol are now in miles.

Ideally we would like to set the radius of the circle in miles and the
width in pixels.

Is there any way of doing this?

Regards

Ian

I jumped the gun on the geomtransform idea. The support is there but
because it operates at the style level buffer distances must be given in
pixels and there's no easy way to convert a map distance (e.g. 10 miles)
to pixels. I really should make some runtime constants (for example,
extent, scale and cellsize) available to expressions- then you could do
this.

Glad you picked option 2 to start.

Steve,

Many thanks for the help and we have just tested option 2 and that
works.

We are using 6.x but are not exactly sure how to use the geomtransform
to do this. Do you have  an example?

Regards

Ian

Couple of options depending on version:

  1) 6.x: buffer the points using a style geomtransform
  2) all versions: use layer SIZEUNITS to draw a circle symbol in miles

I think option 1 is more flexible but option 2 is probably faster.

We need to draw circles of 50 and 100 miles around a list of points.

How can we do this?

Yes, add minwidth 1 and maxwidth 1 to force the width to 1 pixel.

Subject: [mapserver-users] CONFIG "ON_MISSING_DATA" "IGNORE" does not work
	on 5.6.8
Message-ID: <4F3C26F4.3090303@swoodbridge.com>

I can not get CONFIG "ON_MISSING_DATA" "IGNORE" to work on mapserver 
5.6.8. I'm doing WMS requests and I get the error on the image.

MapServer version 5.6.8 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP 
OUTPUT=SVG SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=AGG SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=ICONV 
SUPPORTS=FRIBIDI SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT 
SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=RGBA_PNG INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=POSTGIS 
INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE

The map file has:

   CONFIG "ON_MISSING_DATA" "IGNORE"
   CONFIG MS_ERRORFILE "stderr"

   WEB
     METADATA
       labelcache_map_edge_buffer "-10"
       ows_title "Peru_900913_WMS"
       ows_onlineresource 
"http://example.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/u/data/peru.map&"
       ows_srs "EPSG:4326 EPSG:900913"
       ows_feature_info_mime_type "text/html"
       ows_enable_request "GetMap"
# I tried this also, but error message still inimage.
#      ows_exceptions_format "application/vnd.ogc.se_xml"
     END
   END

Seems like CONFIG "ON_MISSING_DATA" "IGNORE" should do what the doc says 
it should do, but I can't find the magic incantation to make this work.

Anyone know how to do this?

Message-ID: <84446DEF76453C439E9E97E438E13A6307A81E@suutari.haapa.mmm.fi>

Hi,

I can see from the logs that if application/openlayers is selected as WMS outputformat, the simple OpenLayers client will repeat the GetMap request with outputformat image/svg+xml.  This works fine and fast with close zoom but leads to time out when zoomed to full extents. Obviously converting thousands of objects into SVG vectors is too heavy operation. Is there some big advantage in having the Simple client to ask for image/svg+xml format instead of, for example, image/png?  Is there some easy way to change this setting?

It would be also nice if the Simple client would keep the WMS vendor parameters if the original GetMap contains such.

Subject: [mapserver-users] PHP max_input_vars can effect Mapbender
 administration and block requests
Message-ID: <4F3CDB90.6050703@wheregroup.com>

Hello,

some of you may have problems saving changes within the Mapbender
administration for example when you have a WMS with many layers. I wrote 
a mail before about Suhosin blocking requests when the Suhosin-variables 
are set too restrictive  [1].

The problem can also occur, when the PHP variable max_input_vars [2] is 
not set.

You may get a log message like this:

"PHP Warning:  Unknown: Input variables exceeded 1000. To increase the limit change max_input_vars in php.ini."


The default of this variable is 1000. If you have WMS with many layer 
you may have to increase this variable.

I added this information to the Mapbender wiki [3][4].

Subject: [mapserver-users] Problem with Mapserver 6.0.1 and PHP Mapscript
Message-ID: <4F3D2E0A.5070500@geolock.de>

Hello,

I have a problem with Mapserver 6.0.1 and PHP Mapscript.
Until now I am working with Mapserver 5.2.

For testing purposes I created a minimal mapfile, just with name and 
symbolset. The symbolset file contains just one simple filled circle.
When I create a mapObj (tried old an new constructors) I get an empty 
Object (var_dump or print_r).  Non-object members like name or status 
are still there, when accessing them directly.
Set methods are also working for non-object members. Members, that are 
objects themselves, like projection, are not accessible.

I have no clue what could be the problem. The system configuration is 
the same as when using Mapserver 5.2.
PHP version is 5.2.17 (CGI). Version of other libraries (libpng, libgd, 
...) meet the requirements.

Thanks for your help,
Nick

Hi Nick,

It is normal that the var_dump and/or print_r returns nothing. IIRC, 
those functions haven't been implemented in the extension (yet?). 
However, you should not be able to set/get a properties that is not a 
member of the mapObj. I guess you map is really an empty object. Enable 
error log and debug in your mapfile to see if something is wrong.. 
though an error is normally thrown when the mapfile cannot be loaded.

Alan

Hi
Sorry for my bad English.

I downloaded mapserver package 3.0.3 (then 3.0.4) from MS4W site .
My old code trying to get shapeObj by layerObj .getFeature.
But new mapscript not contains getFeature mathod (although new mapscript documentation contains layerObj .getFeature description ).
Can I to get shapeObj  by shape id in new mapscript?


Yours sincerely,
Sev

PS:
  layerObj.getResult(i) return resultObj now.

This does not work in all cases as we hoped,  or we may not  understand
how to use the overall ma projection correctly.

All the layers have the projection set to "proj=latlong,ellps=WGS84".

However if we set the overall map projection from this to "proj=ortho"
the layer with the sizeunits set disappears.

Is this an issue related to the projection or that the map units are now
different.

If we remove the sizeunits from the layer with the circles they reappear
but of course are not the correct size (in miles).

Many thanks

Ian

Stephen,

That appears to do the trick.

Yes, add minwidth 1 and maxwidth 1 to force the width to 1 pixel.

Is the error always reproducible ?
From the logs it seems that the png data received by mapcache from the
wms server is corrupt. More investigation would be needed to determine
if the network or the wms server is at fault for this.

Hello,

I have a problem with Mapserver 6.0.1 and PHP Mapscript.
Until now I am working with Mapserver 5.2.

For testing purposes I created a minimal mapfile, just with name and symbolset. The symbolset file contains just one simple filled circle.
When I create a mapObj (tried old an new constructors) I get an empty Object (var_dump or print_r).? Non-object members like name or status are still there, when accessing them directly.
Set methods are also working for non-object members. Members, that are objects themselves, like projection, are not accessible.

I have no clue what could be the problem. The system configuration is the same as when using Mapserver 5.2.
PHP version is 5.2.17 (CGI). Version of other libraries (libpng, libgd, ...) meet the requirements.

Thanks for your help,
Nick

Nick,

 

I believe we had an issue when we moved to MS 6.x.

 

Try opening from php an empty.map file with just MAP and END it.

 

Then add whatever you need to the map object and use it.

 

This has reminded me we need to go back and work out what our issue was.

 

Regards

 

Ian

Steve,

It is also happening with a layer that has pixel units, that legend symbol exceeds the key box. For example I have a polygon layer with outline width 5 and the symbol exceeds the key box borders. With a width of 1 for example, everything is ok.

Am I doing something wrong?

other Objects (e.g. FPDF) and it worked.

Well, the mapObj can't be really empty. I created an mapObj with an empty
Mapfile , loaded it via Mapscript and set a few non-object members and saved
the mapfile. In the saved mapfile there are all values as I set them via
Mapscript. 
When I create a mapfile with a few parameters, load it via Mapscript and
write it via Mapscript everything in the written mapfile is correct. Even
parameters that are represented by objects like imagecolor. But i cannot
access them via Mapscript. 
I put debug in the mapfile. When loading an empty mapfile there is nothing
reported. When loading a non-empty mapfile I always get a message lik this :
"[Fri Feb 17 10:33:51 2012].245869 msFreeMap(): freeing map at 0x85c9890.".

I also tried to set up a mapfile with one polygon layer and to create an
image. This works.

Hi, 

loading an empty mapfile and doing everything via Mapscript does not work,
because I can't access properties of the objects, that are objects themself,
e.g. color or outlinecolor. It is vital for me to be able to set colors.

The output of save() is fine. Loading an empty mapfile save() produces a
mapfile with several default values. 
When loading a non-empty mapfile save() creates a mapfile with values as
they are in the loaded mapfile.

The Mapserver works. I created a mapfile with one layer and could create an
image with data from Postgres.

Hi, 

when using older mapserver versions var_dump returns not an empty mapObj.

This is the only output you'll get from a var_dump:

object(mapObj)#1 (0) {
}

until the appropriate methods for this will be implemented.

Mmh, ok. But in older Versions the output showed everything in the 
object. I assume that there has been no complete rewrite of Mapscript 
for Mapserver 6, so the appropriate methods must exist in older version.
Maybe they have been dropped.
I just thought, that it would be related to my problem, because older 
mapserver versions showed a different behavior. With regard to your 
statement it has nothing to do with my problem, so it doesn't matter.

The extension was totally written differently using old compatibility 
way. It was probably working differently in older php (some magic?) So 
the those function haven't been dropped. They just don't exist. Perhaps 
a day I will get time to write them!

Glad to hear that's it's not related to your issue.

Good luck.

Andrew,
I was unable to reproduce the issue with your test case. Using the
trunk mapserver version, I successfully seeded levels 6 and 7. Can you
try with the trunk version on your system, there have been some
changes in the cairo font rendering code that might fix the issue you
encountered.

regards,
thomas

Subject: [mapserver-users] Problem with MrSID aerial imagery
Message-ID: <1329494776379-4480620.post@n6.nabble.com>

Hi all,

I'm facing a new problem...

I need to show few aerials imagery in my project that are in MrSID format.

I've compiled my GDAL 1.9.0 with the MrSID SDK and everything went well.

When I'm trying to show my imagery(MrSID format) with MapServer, I receive a
Pink Screen Of Death.

But, when I convert the MrSID file in a crappy GeoTIFF with GeoViewer, my
imagery show up.

Few more info:
- MapServer 6
- GeoMoose 2.4
- each MrSID file size ~1.5 gig
- gdal 1.9.0 + MrSID SDK 8.0 unified
- ubuntu 11.04 natty


gdalinfo --formats | grep MrSID
  MrSID (rov): Multi-resolution Seamless Image Database (MrSID)
  JP2MrSID (rov): MrSID JPEG2000

What can I do to make it work so I can use my MrSID imagery?

here is my mapfile:

MAP
  NAME "ortho"
  SIZE 800 650
  STATUS ON

CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" stderr
DEBUG 5
  
  UNITS meters
    
  INCLUDE "../../mapping_globals.map"

  
   WEB
    METADATA
      'ows_title'           'M.R.C. Val St-Fran?ois'
      'ows_srs'             'EPSG:26915 EPSG:900913 EPSG:32188 EPSG:4326'
    END
  END

LAYER
    NAME '31H09-SE'
    #DATA '../420_MRC_Val_St_Francois/Orthophotos/MOS_07_31H09-SE_F08.sid'
    DATA '../420_MRC_Val_St_Francois/Orthophotos/MOS_07_31H09-SE_F08.tif'
    STATUS ON
    TYPE RASTER
    PROCESSING   "BANDS=1,2,3"
END #layer

END




Thank's in advance to all of you.

	scales
Message-ID: <4B97B695-EA42-4E11-9621-1696819628BD@gmail.com>

I have a layer like so that works very well (snipped for brevity)

	LAYER
		TYPE RASTER
		DATA "path/to/data/my.img"
		PROCESSING "SCALE=-24.403,-1.483"
        CLASS
        	STYLE
        		COLORRANGE 46 154 88 251 255 128
      			DATARANGE -24 0
    		END
  		END
	END
	
Now, I want to dynamically change the "path/to/data" via a web query. Basically, I have img files for different months, and I want the user to be able to choose a specific month and have MapServer deliver that data. So, for January, I want "path/to/1/my.img" and for November it would be "path/to/11/my.img".

Additionally, that "SCALE=-24.403,-1.483" above... well, I used one of them gdal utils to determine that, but I would like to do that automagically. Needless to say, "SCALE=AUTO" does not work.

Suggestions?

Punnet

You could use runtime substitution for this.

DATA "path/to/%month%/my.img"


And then send &month=11 in the URL.

You will also need a VALIDATION block for the substitution string.

VALIDATION
  "month"   "/^(0?[1-9]|1[0-2])$/"
END

The VALIDATION block would be at the LAYER level.

Beautiful. Many thanks. 


Now the next part about figuring out the SCALE automatically?

Message-ID: <CABrdu0adtR6TuBpAmfTxKcG6VqzJi4yJW8fB=eKc0Q0f5dj0Ow@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all-

I am new to MapServer.  I have been tasked with getting opengl working in
our environment and have been unable to do thus far.  I am working with
version 6.0.2.

Here is the part of my map file that I'm working with.

OUTPUTFORMAT
    NAME "oglTest"
    DRIVER OGL/PNG
    IMAGEMODE RGB
    MIMETYPE "image/png"
    EXTENSION "png"
END


Here is the output from running ./shp2img --all_debug 15 -m
/var/www/htdocs/test2.map -o test2.png

msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Unable to initialize image. <br>
OglContext::init(): Renderer error. DISPLAY environment variable not set
<br>


When I try to open the map in a browser, I just get a blank page.  The
lines below show up in /var/log/apache2/error.log.

[Fri Feb 17 19:12:34 2012] [error] [client <IP Address>] PHP Warning:
[MapServer Error]: loadOutputFormat(): OUTPUTFORMAT clause references

I have found some posts where people have had similar issues, but no
solutions were mentioned.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks you.

Hello,
this is a quite an old thread, but it helped me a lot until now.
As far as I understand, you prefer mod_fcgid than mod_fastcgi.

My remaining questions are:
1. Do I have to compile against mod_fcgi, if I want to use mod_fcgid or can
I use my mapserver, build against fastcgi?
2. Mike gives the following Apache configuration from the benmarking in
2010:
<IfModule fcgid_module>
  FcgidInitialEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib64:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/mapserverfull/lib:/oracle/instantclient_11_2:/opt/mapserver/lib
  FcgidMinProcessesPerClass 0    
  FcgidIdleScanInterval 1    
  FcgidProcessLifeTime 10
  FcgidIOTimeout 100
  FcgidMinProcessesPerClass 0
</IfModule>
There are serveral paths to libraries. Which libraries are relevant? 

Thanks for helping and sorry for my english ;-)
Best regards,
Stefan

Message-ID: <CAGRA++1Q-W9iy-y-j_kMRy+6pYKk_7WhyAW_=LxQzCrMG1b0cA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I have a map with several layers. But when the result is rendered in the
browser with OpenLayers, the maps are flattened and all request are done
with the SRS parameter which value EPSG:4326 instead EPSG:23030. Some help?
Thanks!

My MAPFILE is this:

All the layers are similar, and the JS wich showsd the result is like this:

var options = {

minExtent : new OpenLayers.Bounds(-1, -1, 1, 1),
maxResolution : 0.35,

zoom: 4,
tileSize : new OpenLayers.Size(400, 550)
};
map = new OpenLayers.Map('olmap', options);
...

var ProvinciasWms =

Subject: [mapserver-users] Mapserver + PostGIS ==> Blank Screen
Message-ID: <CAB71FuYzFiFWKFvPdp4kvEv89SPbOjN1qWXdsTB_wszfQtcGiA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi fellows,

thank you for your assistance with the Mapserver issue I've had. I compiled
the mapserver 6.1-dev from the SVN respository and it worked! :)

Kind regards
Cheryl



#######
Hi,

I'm trying to get Mapserver connected with PostGIS. PostGIS is holding
a shape2pgsql contourline import in the table "atest" while a test has
the following columns (shape2pgsql default):

--------------------------------------
| Actions | gid | id | height | geom |
--------------------------------------

Quantum GIS picks the conection up perfectly to atest but with
Mapserver I just get a blank screen - or the color of IMAGECOLOR [. .
.] definition in *.map definitions.

Somehow it seems like I got the connection between Mapserver and
PostGIS running - at least the debug.log doesn't complain. But still
I'm not seeing any of my contour lines as I'm used to by Quantum GIS
;(

Could someone give me a hint of what I'm missing out or where my mistake is?
I got the feeling that it is either has something to do with the DATA
property or the projection properties ?

The Link with which I call the mapserv binary is:

http://192.168.10.15/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=./Maps/test.map&mode=map
But then it complains:
msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Unable to initialize image.
msPrepareImage(): General error message. Image dimensions not
specified. msCalculateScale(): General error message. Invalid image
width or height.

So I changed it to the following:
http://192.168.10.15/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=./Maps/test.map&mode=map&mapsize=600+800
which results in fortunately no errors but therefore in a blank screen
with a clean debug.log ...

Even this one wont change anything:
http://192.168.10.15/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=./Maps/test.map&mode=map&mapsize=600+800&layer=Contour

I attached some screenshots for clearity . . .
. . . my test-2.map definition is attached below:

P.S.: TEMPLATE "./Maps/test.map" does exist and is read and writeable
to the user which runs the webserver (Apache => User: www)

Cherly,

 One issue could be that you've asked Mapserver to render the entire world:


EXTENT    -90 -180 90 180

into a small image:

mapsize=600+800

Adjust the extents of the output image to be the extent of you contour
data.  I see that you've given that in your LAYER definition


           EXTENT        143 -20 145 -19

so try that for the map extent (but I think it would be valid only if the
contours were stored in a Geographic system and not a Projected system).
What SRS are you storing your data in?  The same as your display
(EPSG:4326)?

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser


################

Hi Brent,

Thanks for your reply.

The SRS my data is stored in WGS84.

Unfortunately, I am not getting configuration file right. I adjusted the
map EXTENT to something smaller,

Map

Extent 16 -28 25 -16


The layer extent I also adjusted to the output image of the contour data,

Layer

Extent 17.002 -20.965 18.007 -20.002

I played around with the figures a little but I get this error message at
all times,

"msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'Contour'.
msPostGISLayerWhichShapes(): Query error. Error (ERROR: function
geomfromtext(unknown, integer) does not exist LINE 1: ...R'),'hex') as
geom,"gid" from atest where geom && GeomFromTe... ^ HINT: No function

-28,15.8348164627364 -28))',4326)"

Since this is my first time configurating a mapfile, I am unsure of what is
essential and what not, thus, I copied and pasted the script and adjusted
it to my CONNECTION details. I am not too sure whether it is vital to have
both a "map extent" and a "layer extend"?

Do you perhaps have any hints in this regard?

Best Regards
Cheryl


###############

Yikes!   That looks like a compatibility problem.  PostGIS has been
changing their function names (e.g. from "GeomFromText" to
"ST_GeomFromText"), and I don't  think Mapserver has kept up.  Can you use
an older version of PostGIS (<2.0)?

No I can't get this to work, perhaps I don't understand the syntax of 
geomtransform. Can you give me an example of fixing a label to the 
center point of a rectangle, without shifting it when the rectangle 
crosses the viewport? My mapfile looks:

connectiontype postgis
connection ""
data the_rect from bnds
labelitem rect_id
style
   color 0 0 0
end
label
   color 0 0 255
end

I put a few geotransforms within the label and within the style objects, 
but the label always shifts near the margin of the viewport.

Thanks,

Jan

That's it, thanks Thomas. It's a problem with the development version of 
OpenLayers, where during a map refresh the old version remains visible 
for some time next to the updated one, in order to get a smooth 
transition. I find intelligent labelpositioning more important than 
smooth transitions, so I'll suggest to them an option to disable the 
smoothing effect.

Hi Murat

Is it possible for you to create a view from the columns that presents the data as a WKT line feature:

create view lineview as select id, "LINESTRING(" + lon1 + " " + lat1 + "," + lon2 + " " + lat2 + ")" as geom from mytable

Then set up your OGR ovf file representing this view:

<OGRVRTDataSource>
        <OGRVRTLayer name="fences">
        <SrcDataSource>ODBC:user/passwd at DSN</SrcDataSource>
        <SrcLayer>lineview</SrcLayer>
        <GeometryType>wkbLine</GeometryType>
        <LayerSRS>EPSG:2193</LayerSRS>
        <GeometryField encoding="WKT" field="geom"/>
        <FID>id</FID>
        </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>

Best wishes,

Robert

Dear friend,

I'm trying to draw a line using MySql database
the table in database as follows,

            id    lat1    lon1    lat2    lon2
20100308023229 40.1113 38.7901 40.0311 38.7428

actually using ogr connection I can draw point using ogr and mysql, but
How can I draw line using such database table, please help me and give
the idea...

Thanks

the above actually turned out to be a lot easier than I thought... about 4 lines of Perl.


Now, I have a table with geometry, and colors for each feature.

    CREATE TABLE t (attr, hex_color, the_geom);

How can I color the polys in the layer with the hex_color values? Looking at the map file docs, I came up with something like so

    LAYER
        NAME "foo"
        DATA "the_geom FROM (SELECT gid, rgb(hex_color) AS rgb_color, the_geom FROM t) tmp USING UNIQUE gid USING srid=4326"
        STATUS ON
            TYPE POLYGON
            CLASS
                STYLE
                    COLOR [rgb_color]
                    OUTLINECOLOR 68 68 68
                END
            END
	END
    END

where rgb() converts "hex_color" to a string of RGB triplets. So, "000000" becomes "0 0 0".

Is the above correct? For now, it doesn't seem to be working for me.

Many tia,

So, I can use the hex values directly. Cool. But, will the following be sufficient in the map file?

   LAYER
       NAME "foo"
       DATA "the_geom FROM (SELECT gid, hex_color, the_geom FROM t) tmp USING UNIQUE gid USING srid=4326"
       STATUS ON

                   COLOR [hex_color]
               END
           END
	END

Puneet,

A very recent version of gdal, last couple of weeks, can convert KML
styles into OGR style strings. MapServer can use those OGR Style strings
with the AUTO style option.

Mike (and Richard),

Thanks for the advice, but I didn't have to use gdal. As I wrote in another email, 5 or so lines of Perl code extracted the hex color values and inserted them in the Postgres table. From there, it was just a matter of knowing the correct map file syntax. Richard's suggestion of prefixing the # sign was spot on, which I added right in the Pg column. Then, the CLASS STYLE shown below worked really well.

Many thanks all.

Dear Robert,

Thanks for your reply,
Actually I have tried your suggestion but I could not succeed.
as follows in .map file directly
and in MySQL database I created a lineview view as follows 

create view lineview as select eq_id, "LINESTRING(" + lon1 + " " + lat1
+ "," + lon2 + " " + lat2 + ")" as geom from sfault


in map file 
I changed Geometrytype from wkbline to wkblinestring.

LAYER
  NAME sfault1 
 connectiontype ogr
CONNECTION '<OGRVRTDataSource>
        <OGRVRTLayer name="lineview">

<SrcDataSource>MYSQL:dynamic,user=root,password=mysqlpasswd,host=localhost,port=3306,tables=lineview</SrcDataSource>     
   
        <SrcLayer>lineview</SrcLayer>

        <GeometryType>wkbLineString</GeometryType>

        <GeometryField encoding="WKT" field="geom"/>

        <LayerSRS>WGS84</LayerSRS>

        <FID>eq_id</FID>

        </OGRVRTLayer>

</OGRVRTDataSource>'

#        <SrcDataSource>ODBC:user/passwd at DSN</SrcDataSource>
  DATA sfault1
  STATUS on
  TYPE line
  CLASS
  name "Source Fault"
  SYMBOL "cline"
   SIZE 3
  COLOR  0 0 255 
 END
END



There is an another issue I have to make a query in layer because I
select only one line from database so I have try to add SQL statement. I
'm not good at OGR GDAL so I need some advice and help.
Thank you for your interest

Subject: [mapserver-users] WCS server not
Message-ID: <CAF7sLCUrs8R6MLAR3JTQMTsy96=TYuJyV9g_NRV6o_82iwagKA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello;

I am newbie to Mapserver, so maybe this is a naive question but I am doing
my best to find a solution to serve raster data by using Mapserver.

I have MapServer 5.6.5, I have prepared my map server with WFS and WMS  and
I would like to serve GEOTIFF images with WCS 1.0.0 protocol.

I prepared a map file, with two layers to be served and I made a
capabilities of the server:

http://domainserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?SERVICE=WCS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities

The problem is that all metadata is full but there is no content for
coverages ("identifiers" in v.1.1.0), that is, the content between
ContentMetada labels is empty,

<ContentMetadata>
</ContentMetadata></WCS_Capabilities>

So I don't know what is happen, I made a probe like using shp2img to
generate a image png from mapfile and it is done

My Mapfile (only one layer) looks like in the following way:


MAP

I have no xml capabilities file if I set DUMP TRUE in LAYER class, there is
a internal server error according to Apache.

I don`t know if there is a problem with GDAL library or not. I am just be
confussed

Any help would be very appreciate.

Thank you in advance

Hi,

I'm inputting lots of street address points in PostGIS, and try to 
generate labels for the streets. The convex hull of the points of a 
street approximate the course of the street, and I would like to 
position the streetname in the middle of the convex hull polygon, 
aligned to its dominant angle (the polygons are generally quite narrow). 
Is there a way of doing this with MapServer? Perhaps by thinning out the 
polygon to a line, for then I can use "angle follow".

If you are storing the data in PostGIS, you could possibly take advantage of ST_Azimuth().  http://www.postgis.org/docs/ST_Azimuth.html

It takes two point objects as the args, but you could potentially use the start and end points of your linestring.

Going a step further:

st_longestline(st_collect(the_geom),st_collect(the_geom))

gives the longest line segment that can be drawn within the cluster of 
street address points. Works for non-curved streets. I'm still looking 
for a more intelligent way to thin out a polygon to a (multi)line.

Several years ago, I wrote some Python code to roughly georeference air photos.  As part of that, I needed to come up with the best approximation of the heading of the airplane.

What worked pretty well was to do a really simple line fitting based on the points.  My samples were points from an airplane that was attempting to fly in a straight line, with vertices generated by a camera taking pictures at regular intervals, so that helped.

I simply split the vertices of the line into three groups by dividing the total number of points by 3.  I averaged the x and y values in each group and then created a line from the average coord from group1 to the average coord from group3.

Street data will likely be more variable (curved), but you may want to explore something like this.  Of course, you would likely want to calculate these label angles using pre-processing to speed up rendering time.

David.

C:/OSGeo4W/apache/bin/msplugin_mssql2008.dll msGetSymbol(): General error
message. Can't load requested dynamic library:
C:/OSGeo4W/specialplugins/msplugin_mssql2008.dll

This is how I'm defining the "geo" layer

LAYER
	NAME geo
	STATUS ON
	TYPE POINT
	CONNECTIONTYPE PLUGIN
        PLUGIN "C:/OSGeo4W/specialplugins/msplugin_mssql2008.dll"
	CONNECTION "MYSQL:xx,user=xx;password=xx,host=xx,port=xx"
	DATA "Location from Production" 
	CLASS
		STYLE
			COLOR 232 232 232
			OUTLINECOLOR 32 32 32
		END # end of style
	END # end of class
END # end of layer

Do you guys have any idea of what could be causing the error? Any help will
be appreciated 

Thanks,
Julia

If you are trying to access a MySQL database, you don't use the 
mssql2008 plugin - you can follow examples at 
http://www.mapserver.org/input/vector/mysql.html

I'd be following the docs: 
http://www.mapserver.org/input/vector/mssql.html (I'd for sure be trying 
that ogrinfo example to connect first)

I am not sure the status of that plugin though (it is also part of MS4W 
as well)...others may jump in here.

Jorge,

AFAIK "DUMP True" is needed in MS 5.6.5 to enable WCS. Did you try to
enable debugging [1] to see what's causing the error? Depending on your
data you might need the to set the "wcs_extent" metadata but this should
be reported in the debug output.

Jorge,

AFAIK "DUMP True" is needed in MS 5.6.5 to enable WCS. Did you try to
enable debugging [1] to see what's causing the error? Depending on your
data you might need the to set "wcs_extent" metadata

I am also in need of this feature, in my case it's an Administrator panel
that will control MapCache options.

As a suggestion maybe create an option in MapCache configuration file (by
default false) that on request to an apache process will check if the last
modified date of the configuration file was changed and if yes then reload
the configuration and after that continue processing.

Hello Stephan,

As you said, I have seen that for Mapserver version it is advisbale to write
DUMP TRUE in (layer-level) map file but there is no capabilities in the web
browser. 505 Internal Server Error and the following message:

"""

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable
to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, etclusi.gis.support at uab.es and
inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

"""

I did all related with debug issues and I am obtaining errors to log file
saying

"[Wed Feb 22 09:44:53 2012] [error] [client 158.109.144.146] Premature end

According to this, I checked not to be in conflict with INPUT=GDAL and
INPUT=TIFF

MapServer version 5.6.5 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP

I am trying to serve two TIFF Images, one with 1 band and a colour palette
(Land Cover) and another one, Murble Nasa image and 3 bands RGB. So at this
point I dont know if there is a conflict with GDAL library (I dont think so
because shp2img -m file.map -o test.png -all_debug 5 reports in a correct
direction) or one parameters wcs_* related is missing in METADATA section.

Could you give any above-mentioned not explored tips or directly go to MSv6?

Thanks you in advance

Jorge

apache2ctl -k graceful is not really an option for me because I would have
to give root privileges to my apache/php.

"AFAIK, this isn't possible." I don't know anything about apache modules
and stuff so the next thing I say may not be applicable or just plain
stupid, but maybe each process will hold their own copy of configuration so
the apache process will be able to alter it's configuration upon detection
of file change. There is certainly that added overhead of "checking last
modified date" and keeping more copies in memory, but this should not be
the default behavior.

Could you please post the debug messages when you set "DEBUG 5" both on
mapfile and layer level?

you can create a sudo rule that only allows a user to run apache2ctl
-k graceful without giving full root access.

afaik, at the request level (which is were the freshness test would
occur), there's no way of freeing the memory that allocated the
initial configuration, and no way of allocating memory for the new
configuration that would live across the upcoming requests.

Thank you for the sudo rule suggestion and for detailed explanation!

Just one more question, if I use MapCache as fcgi, does this mean that on
every request the configuration will be read and parsed ? or the
configuration will be kept in memory until a the fastcgi process killed
and respawned ?

kept in memory accross the lifetime of the process. the conf file is
accessed at each request to check it's modification time though if you
have enabled auto reloading.

Hello Stephan:

I am not sure what is happened butt ...... fortunately, magic word DUMP TRUE
has resolved the issue. I don't know exactly the reason but jointly with a
(maybe important) wc_title metadata has solved the problem. 

One final question, but in debug mode, attending to error.log in apache web
server, I have this kind of "error?", .....

but I can make getCapabilities, DescribeCoverage and getCoverage for WCS

Do you know what does it mean? Could I obtain errors but doing (aparently)
correct requests to mapserver? 

Thanks Stephen

Hi

I have a similar problem.
I have different s57 maps with different scales for different locations
I convert them to .shp and create for all scales of the layers tileindexes
and adjust the min/maxscaledenom of the mapfile.
The GROUP name is the s57 layername (eg DEPARE) and the layers are called
like this: DEPARE_A_2500
But now I get only white pictures. 
I think the problem is, that the tileindex link to an other shapefile and
not to the shapefile for this location because of the scale.

until all layer were draw on top of each other like here: 
http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/file/n4494860/Unbenannt.png 

I hope you can help me

Thanks

ElPer

Hi Everyone,
I am new in mapserver and I need help. Please help!

If I want people to access files that are on my computer by my Web Server what would I add to the httpd.conf file in order for this to happen given the following information?

- The files are in c:\Internet_ Mapping\webfiles

-  You want people to access them by entering http://servername/contentfiles/index.html into their web browser

We are using an openlayers frontend to utilize mapserver via 
phpmapscript to read some colorized tif files we have made, and then 
render a png file on a webpage via gdal.This process seems to work about 
95% of the time, The other 5%, we are getting no images and errors 
kicked out to the httpd error log. Based on the errors below, it seems 
to be occurring when mapserver issues the $map->draw() command, and 
kicks out some GDAL errors.When this happens, there is no png image that 
gets created. Ive included the following directives in the map file to 
help with debugging CONFIG "CPL_DEBUG" "ON", andCONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" = 
/home/logfile
Any help on what may be happening here?

*When it succeeds I see a message like this in the httpd error logs:***

Subject: [mapserver-users] Trouble querying PostGIS layer
Message-ID: <4EFF8BB964547748A07CA32961810C041D0C098D@SOM-TEAQASMAIL1.som.w2k.state.me.us>

I'm having trouble doing an attribute query on a PostGIS layer.  The
data in this layer was formerly in shapefile, and the query worked fine
with it.  But with the PostGIS layer, I get no results.

 

The PHP MapScript query uses a setFilter on the layer, then does a
queryByRect, again, with no results.

 

The problem appears to be connected to the extent and/or projection.
With the original shapefile, I can echo back the extent rectangle:

[minx] => 342764.988407 [miny] => 4759515.50711 [maxx] => 647042.41629
[maxy] => 5245337.46493 )

 

--Which is what I'd expect.  But with the PostGIS layer, if I echo back
the extent, here is what I get:

 

[minx] => -3.40282346639E+38 [miny] => -3.40282346639E+38 [maxx] =>
3.40282346639E+38 [maxy] => 3.40282346639E+38

 

The PostGIS layer is set for the proper SRID, and the correct EPSG and
extent are in the map file.

 

What is going wrong here?

Aaron,

You might want to try:

  gdalinfo -mm /home/cache/2012021913-2012022013.tif

This will force actual reading of the imagery blocks to compute
a min/max for each band and will help determine if there is any
problem with the imagery.  I don't really understand your overall
process well, but I am suspicious there might be an issue where
whatever is writing the .tif file is not quite finished flushing it out
before you are trying to read it with mapserver.  The error is what
I might expect from reading an unflushed TIFF file.

Best regards,

Hi

I am not exactly sure, but it sounds like this is not a mapserver question
but an apache?? question about how to make raw files downloadable.

If so head to an forum about your webserver, if it is apache then then you
are probably looking for something like this


<VirtualHost 123.123.321.01>
    DocumentRoot c:\\Internet_ Mapping
   ServerName  www.example.com
</VirtualHost>

then www.example.com/webfiles/index.html

should work

Matt  :)

Dear all,

Still could not achieve to draw line using start and stop point line
data stored in MySql database.

I have tried Mr. Robert's solution but I have faced an error message.


in map file 
I changed Geometrytype from wkbline to wkblinestring.

LAYER
NAME sfault1 
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION '<OGRVRTDataSource>
<OGRVRTLayer name="lineview">
<SrcDataSource>MYSQL:dynamic,user=root,password=mysqlpasswd,host=localhost,port=3306,tables=lineview</SrcDataSource>

  DATA sfault1
  STATUS on
  TYPE line
  CLASS
  NAME "Source Fault"
  SYMBOL "cline"
   SIZE 3
  COLOR  0 0 255 
 END
END 

in database
I have two table 
one is store id lat1 lon1 lat2 lon2 
and another is view 
of this table created by following

create view lineview as select eq_id, "LINESTRING(" + lon1 + " " + lat1
+ "," + lon2 + " " + lat2 + ")" as geom from sfault


there is an another issue,
I have to draw line by considering id 
so in the map When I select one id, line should be belong to this id's
information
so I have to make a sql statement as follow instead of draw all line
stored in database I have to draw just one line considering id

something like this select eq_id, geom from lineview where id like '%id
%' 


please help about this subject....


Regards....

Subject: [mapserver-users] How to approach a multi dimensions scenario with
 WMS (or how specify
 additional parameters in WMS without breaking OGC specs)
Message-ID: <CAHXrU-L=gaMK-3UExG9tGQfL_dt5wNkiJXVN6Y6eHdLmVGfCEg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all

We have the following scenario: every day we receive a meteorological
dataset in NetCDF, that contains 104 subdatasets, each representing a
different variable.
Each of these subdataset has 10 bands, each representing the forecast
value for that variable for the coming 10 days.
We need to expose all of this datasets as different WMS and keep the
access to all of the datasets (NetCDF) in the time.

The approach I was considering is the following: every day I would
generate with a script a *different mapfile*, representing one single
NetCDF dataset.
Still with a script I would build 104 tiled shapefile, with a TIME
field (WMS Time option). Each shapefile would contain 10 record, one
for each band (day), set to the path of a virtual raster (still
generated by the script) pointing to the correct combination of
variable/day in the NetCDF file. The mapfile would contain 208 layers,
two for each variable (the tile shapefile for time tiling the forecast
day, and the raster for the variable).

One alternative approach could be to create just a single WMS and
append parameters in the request, and process them with *mapscript*,
but this way I believe the service would go out from the OGC
specification.
Simply, I would like that any single day would have a specific WMS
service, exposed by a different mapfile. This way the end user could
query the specific WMS for a given day, using the TIME parameter for
specifing the forecast day, and the LAYER parameter for specifing the
variable.

This way I will be able to build a request for each different dataset
(represented by a different mapfile), each different variable
(represented by a layer in mapfile) and each day forecast (represented
by a single record in the tile shapefile).

The request would be something like this:

http://localhost/mapserver/global?MAP=/path/to/mapfiles/dataset_20111001.map&LAYERS=myvariable&TIME=2011-10-03&...

With Apache URL rewriting I could transform the request, making the
reference to the mapfile not evident:

http://localhost/mapserver/global/20111001?LAYERS=myvariable&TIME=2011-10-03&...

Do you think this could be a correct approach or there is a better way
to proceed?

Thanks
P

Hi Jorge,

glad that WCS is working for you. It seems that you redirect the
MapServer debug output to the Apache error log. Don't worry, the
messages above are no real error messages and should disappear once you
disable debugging.

Thanks for the suggestion,

I was able to create a spatial index for the database using ogrinfo. I even
exported information from sql server to a shapefile using the ogr2ogr
utility.
 
However; I want to be able to get data directly from a query in the mapfile,
instead of having to create a shapefile. Right now this doesn't work when I
use CONNECTIONTYPE OGR, and the same string that I used to connect for the
previous examples.

Also, I tried to use the mssql2008 plugin, and I used dependency walker and
it seems that most of the required libraries cannot be found ...

Do you have any idea of what the problem could be?

Julia

According to your first letter (and by making sure you use mssql instead of
mysql) I think you should modify the mapfile including the correct
connection parameters.

Regarding to the issue of  " the procedure entry point msSmallMalloc could
not be located in the
dynamic library libmap.dll" this looks like an older version of libmap.dll
is used actually, which may not be compatible with the mssql plugin.

BTW: With the current approach, connecting to mssql via OGR provides better
performance than using the mssql plugin. This is because the plugin forces
to convert the geometries to WKB at server side with is less efficient than
retrieving the data in the native SqlGeometry/Geography serialization
format.


Best regards,

Tamas

Subject: [mapserver-users] OGR and MSSQL non-specific error
Message-ID: <A0641FF0352C64429BE486469C9AD53C09097A@001FSN2MPN1-021.001f.mgd2.msft.net>

All,

I'm a bit confused: does MapServer 6.0.1 and OGR "officially" work with Sql Server 2008? I can see how use of the native SqlGeometry objects might be a bonus and would like to put it to the test.

MSSQL access via the plugin works with this LAYER:
  LAYER
    NAME 'States'  STATUS ON
    PROJECTION 'proj=latlong' 'ellps=GRS80' 'datum=NAD83' END
    CONNECTIONTYPE PLUGIN
    PLUGIN ...\msplugin_mssql2008.dll'
    CONNECTION 'server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx'
    PROCESSING 'CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER'
    DATA "ShapeGeometry from NAV_STATE as base_table using unique OBJECTID using SRID=4269"
    TYPE POLYGON
    CLASS STYLE OUTLINECOLOR '#e1dd00' WIDTH 2 END END
  END

This variant, changed to use OGR, fails:
  LAYER
    NAME 'States'  STATUS ON
    PROJECTION 'proj=latlong' 'ellps=GRS80' 'datum=NAD83' END
    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    CONNECTION 'MSSQL:server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx'
    PROCESSING 'CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER'
    DATA "ShapeGeometry from NAV_STATE as base_table using unique OBJECTID using SRID=4269"
    TYPE POLYGON
    CLASS STYLE OUTLINECOLOR '#e1dd00' WIDTH 2 END END
  END

Using shp2img (from MapServer 6.0.1 distribution for Win32/VS2010 retrieved 2011-07-18) with "-all_debug 5" yields:
  msOGRFileOpen(): OGR error.
  GetLayer(ShapeGeometry from NAV_STATE as base_table using unique OBJECTID using SRID=4269)
  failed for OGR connection `MSSQL:server=xxx;database=xxx;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx'.
There is no further detail as to the failure.

By way of reference,
1. In mapserver-users Digest, Vol 49, Issue 58, Tamas Szekeres states "BTW: With the current approach, connecting to mssql via OGR provides better performance than using the mssql plugin."
2. Tamas also indicates that OGR can talk to MSSQL in "[gdal-dev] OGR MS SQL Spatial driver has been added", http://www.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-dev/2010-September/026055.html.
3. MapServer documentation at http://mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html does not list MSSQL as a data provider.
4. MapServer documentation at http://mapserver.org/input/vector/mssql.html still shows use of the msplugin_mssql2008.dll plugin.

I must also wonder: has a measurable improvement been demonstrated by eliminating the plugin and going to the direct OGR to MSSQL connection?

Phil,

You should not specify the data section in the OGR layer definition unless
you would define and sql select statement preceding with the 'where'
keyword. The terms 'using unique' and 'using srid' are not meaningful for
the ogr driver these parameters are automatically retrieved from the
geometry_columns metadata table. You should however specify the table name
(and probably the geometry column name) in the connection string, something
like:

 CONNECTION ' MSSQL:server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx;tables=NAV_STATE'

or

 CONNECTION
' MSSQL:server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx;tables=NAV_STATE(ShapeGeometry)'


The difference in performance may be investigated by reading large number
of shapes at a given scale.
I'm also planning to improve the mapserver mssql plugin to read native
SqlGeometries, but I'm now working on a QGIS mssql driver right now.

Best regards,

Tamas

Hi, Tamas,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. It works (with a pair of follow-up questions)!

Here?s what I used:

    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    CONNECTION 'MSSQL:server=xxx;database=Navigation;uid=yyy;pwd=zzz?
    PROCESSING 'CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER'
    DATA "select ShapeGeometry, State_Abbr from NAV_STATE
          where ShapeGeometry.STIntersects(
            geometry::STGeomFromText(
              'POLYGON((-126 22.2048396890436, -66 22.2048396890436,
                        -66 51.1696997878088, -126 51.1696997878088,
                        -126 22.2048396890436))',4269)) = 1"
    LABELITEM 'State_Abbr'

1. Note that I omitted the ?tables=?? as it appears that naming a specific table would interfere with connection pooling if I?m using many layers drawing data from different tables. Do I understand the role of the ?tables=?? incorrectly?

2. I added the explicit spatial filtering (STIntersects?). Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks again,

- Phil

Phil,

You should not specify the data section in the OGR layer definition unless you would define and sql select statement preceding with the 'where' keyword. The terms 'using unique' and 'using srid' are not meaningful for the ogr driver these parameters are automatically retrieved from the geometry_columns metadata table. You should however specify the table name (and probably the geometry column name) in the connection string, something like:

 CONNECTION ' MSSQL:server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx;tables=NAV_STATE'

or

 CONNECTION ' MSSQL:server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx;tables=NAV_STATE(ShapeGeometry)'


The difference in performance may be investigated by reading large number of shapes at a given scale.
I'm also planning to improve the mapserver mssql plugin to read native SqlGeometries, but I'm now working on a QGIS mssql driver right now.

Best regards,

Tamas

All,

I'm a bit confused: does MapServer 6.0.1 and OGR "officially" work with Sql Server 2008? I can see how use of the native SqlGeometry objects might be a bonus and would like to put it to the test.

MSSQL access via the plugin works with this LAYER:
 LAYER
   NAME 'States'  STATUS ON
   PROJECTION 'proj=latlong' 'ellps=GRS80' 'datum=NAD83' END
   CONNECTIONTYPE PLUGIN
   PLUGIN ...\msplugin_mssql2008.dll'
   CONNECTION 'server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx'
   PROCESSING 'CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER'
   DATA "ShapeGeometry from NAV_STATE as base_table using unique OBJECTID using SRID=4269"
   TYPE POLYGON
   CLASS STYLE OUTLINECOLOR '#e1dd00' WIDTH 2 END END
 END

This variant, changed to use OGR, fails:
 LAYER
   NAME 'States'  STATUS ON
   PROJECTION 'proj=latlong' 'ellps=GRS80' 'datum=NAD83' END
   CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
   CONNECTION 'MSSQL:server=xxx;database=;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx'
   PROCESSING 'CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER'
   DATA "ShapeGeometry from NAV_STATE as base_table using unique OBJECTID using SRID=4269"
   TYPE POLYGON
   CLASS STYLE OUTLINECOLOR '#e1dd00' WIDTH 2 END END
 END

Using shp2img (from MapServer 6.0.1 distribution for Win32/VS2010 retrieved 2011-07-18) with "-all_debug 5" yields:
 msOGRFileOpen(): OGR error.
 GetLayer(ShapeGeometry from NAV_STATE as base_table using unique OBJECTID using SRID=4269)
 failed for OGR connection `MSSQL:server=xxx;database=xxx;uid=xxx;pwd=xxx'.
There is no further detail as to the failure.

By way of reference,
1. In mapserver-users Digest, Vol 49, Issue 58, Tamas Szekeres states "BTW: With the current approach, connecting to mssql via OGR provides better performance than using the mssql plugin."
2. Tamas also indicates that OGR can talk to MSSQL in "[gdal-dev] OGR MS SQL Spatial driver has been added", http://www.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-dev/2010-September/026055.html.
3. MapServer documentation at http://mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html does not list MSSQL as a data provider.
4. MapServer documentation at http://mapserver.org/input/vector/mssql.html still shows use of the msplugin_mssql2008.dll plugin.

I must also wonder: has a measurable improvement been demonstrated by eliminating the plugin and going to the direct OGR to MSSQL connection?

Yours in confusion,

Hello lists,

 

We cannot get all our Arabic text labels to display correctly, it appears that the incorrectly rendered text is not being drawn right to left. Some work and others do not.

 

Our assumption is that there are some non displaying codes we are missing but we do not know enough yet to work out if this is the case.

 

The data is in an sqlite database using an OGR connection.

 

Any ideas or experience that you can share would be fabulous.

 

Thanks

 

Ian

Ian,

You need the follow pieces to get this to work:

1. make sure you have built mapserver with fribidi-0.19.2
2. you need a ttf that supports the character set you are using
    - I always make sure my data is in UTF8
    - and I have a unicode arial.ttf font from Windows
3. make sure your LABEL block has ENCODING "UTF8" in it
    - assuming your data is in UTF8

On Linux you can do:
$ dbfdump myshapefile.dbf > aaa
$ file aaa

and it will tell you what the encoding is.

Issues that I have run into are:

1. data with mixed utf8 and other encodings like Window-1256 or ISO-8859-6
2. In UTF8 data there are a lot of glyphs that are connecting characters 
or non printing characters and many fonts do not have glyphs defined for 
these characters which typically causes a square box to be displayed.

Steve,

Many thanks for getting back to me.

We have built with that version of fridibi and do get some text labels
displaying correctly.

The source data is from an excel spread sheet which we export to CSV and
import into the SQLite DB.

The plan tomorrow is to find a couple of good and bad labels and follow
these through to see if we can find where there are differences, I
looked last week at the hex codes for a good and bad name but did not
come to any clear confusion.

Does fribidi need  RTL code to display the text correctly? Do you know
how to decode that from the hex?

Regards

Ian

In general, I believe that Excel uses UTF-16 or UTF-32 or UNICODE (can't 
remember witch), but if you move the csv file to Linux and do a "file 
myfile.csv" it will tell you. You can then use iconv to convert the file 
to UTF8. Alternatively, you might be able to specify the on the LABEL 
ENCODING "UTF16" or whatever it is.

I am not sure how SQLite handles character encoding or if it does more 
than just store the data you import with or with changing the encoding.

fribidi just knows how to order the RTL or LTR data. If you mix arabic 
and english in the same string, it will display them both correctly.

Yes, it may be considered as being a different connection if the tables
section is used.

It seems to be a bit complicated this way. I think you should try simply
setting the layer name in the DATA section. In this case the spatial filter
is added automatically by the MapServer OGR driver.

Dear List,

I have a NetCDF file with contains over 150 timesteps. I can create a WMS for each timestep using PROCESSING "BANDS=1", which means I have to define over 150 layers. I was hoping to only define the layer once and pass a variable for the time or the band number.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Kathleen

Subject: [mapserver-users] Oracle Locator support
Message-ID: <1330408901636-4519962.post@n6.nabble.com>

Hi,
I'm trying to find out if Oracle Locator can be used as an effective Spatial
Database for MapServer.  I haven't been able to find a list of what is and
isn't supported for this combination.  We've been using PostgreSQL/PostGIS
as our spatial database and are wondering whether a shift to Oracle Locator
is viable, or whether we'd need to go to Oracle Spatial.  The kinds of
things we're doing are:
- building OpenLayers applications with a high level of user functionality
eg. multiple layers, point and polygon queries, user drawn/edited features
(for writing to the database)
- providing WMS services (eg. street maps)
- providing WFS services (with filtering)
- custom services eg. nearest feature to a point, queries on buffered
features, etc.
Thanks, Bill Teluk

Hi Bill,
Here (
http://www.spatialdbadvisor.com/oracle_spatial_tips_tricks/55/oracle-locator-vs-enterprise-licensing-the-sdogeom-package)
You can find differences between Spatial and locator.
That was posted in 2007 - anyway, in general, that is true. There also had
been changes in 11g (R1 or R2 - do not remember exactly) that added a
number of features into locator from spatial.
Less words, you can easily use locator for wms/wfs services etc, with
restriction to several analytic  packages/functions.

One more thing to mention. Every feature that is available in spatial is
also accessible in locator (afair true for Oracle Enterprise and Standard
editions, not sure with XE). The only difference is licensing.
So you can develop your application, write down all the functions you used
and decide does that list fit into locator or not. If not - you go into
spatial or change your code.

regards, michael

Subject: [mapserver-users] mapserver palette color
Message-ID: <1330418665208-4520887.post@n6.nabble.com>

Hello everyone:

I am trying to serve tiff images with mapserver by using mapserver v.5.6.5
with WCS implemented protocol v.1.0.0. All is fine in the sense that
three-band raster are served correctly with a WCS client (RGB composite
renderer with ArcMap, for instance). BUT if I want to display a single band
raster with a palette color describing some (discrete) categories, for
instance, a thematic raster layer (Corine -- Use and Land covers), the
connection to WCS server by using WCS client is fine, but the image is
served like a continuos band range instead a discrete colors as
corresponding to color table. So my WCS client is not detecting inherent
properties in the raster data. 

So, at this point I have some doubts:  
*my mapfile is not well defined
*the protocol does not support this and is not suited to serve discrete
(unique) values
*I am ignorant about how is rendered images with Mapserver 


Maybe third part is the correct statement. As far as I know built-in libs
and GDAL is responsible for rendering raster in Mapsserver. My CGI bin is
compiled with GDAL support, so raster will be managed by it;  gdalinfo
<filename> gives me information about raster layer (land cover) showing a
color table with a single band and 255 entries (only 13 categories with
different colours). Questions that throw some light for me because I have
not found clear directions in docs. 

I dont know if I have to specify CLASS definition for pixels that indicates
classification of pixels in raster (like in ref
http://mapserver.org/input/raster.html#how-are-rasters-added-to-a-map-file)
could be tedious and I didn?t get it. 


- I have defined OUTPUTFORMAT object in my mapfile like this: 

  OUTPUTFORMAT
    NAME 'GEOTIFF'
    DRIVER "GDAL/GTiff"
    MIMETYPE "image/tiff"
#  IMAGEMODE 'INT16'
#  IMAGEMODE 'PC256'   
    IMAGEMODE 'BYTE'
    EXTENSION 'tif'
  END   #end BANDS

but by using IMAGEMODE  'BYTE' it is rendered like a single-band image with
a greyscale (continuous but not discrete). In docs
(http://mapserver.org/ogc/wcs_format.html) I have read that IMAGEMODE
'PC256'  is needed to serve images with a color table and one single band. 

- I ignore PROCESSING directive. I dont know if a I should to indicate that
how to partitioning band like this 

	PROCESSING "SCALE=0,255"
	PROCESSING "SCALE_BUCKETS=XXX"

to obtain a color table as raster definition. 

- 'wcs_band_count' '1' 
  'wcs_nativeformat'  '8-bit GeoTIF' 

Does anyone know how to indicate mapserver to serve raster as 'raw data' ?

Some trends how to do it and getting out with this are wellcome. 

Jorge

Subject: [mapserver-users] WMS request not enabled
Message-ID: <CAEtdG7uUPsH6tWgvUKXF2DK6hBEgSmBm25cSoCFyNuS8a2Yr6g@mail.gmail.com>

Dear all,

Below goes a map file generated by PyWPS. This file is returning the
following error on a GetCapabilities request:

msWMSGetCapabilities(): WMS server error. WMS request not enabled.
Check wms/ows_enable_request settings.

There is a good deal of information on this list about this error,
because when MapServer 6.0 was introduced many people didn't have the
ows_enable_request parameter set. But PyWPS is correctly setting this
parameter, so there's no apparent reason for this error to come up.

What else can be causing this? Anything I can do to provide more information?

Thank you and regards,

Lu?s

Hi,

There is nothing wrong in your mapfile, only that you do not have any layers in it. I could repeat the behaviour by removing all the layers from my working mapfiles.

The error message in misleading.  I do not know what message there should be if there are no layers in the service but it is otherwise OK. However, something tells me that this might have corrected in a trunk already.

Thank you Jukka.

In fact PyWPS is raising some exceptions when invoking mapscript. I'll
upgrade to the trunk right away.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Mapserv stopped running after upgrade to trunk
Message-ID: <1330437904119-4522390.post@n6.nabble.com>

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to install the trunk version, I checkout the project, compiled it
and moved it to the cgi-bin directory. But now it doesn't run:

$ ./mapserv -v
mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/lib/cgi-bin/.libs': Permission denied
/usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: cannot open output file
/usr/lib/cgi-bin/.libs/17805-lt-mapserv: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit statusn

Why is mapserv trying to access /usr/lib/cgi-bin/.libs? I had a previous
version installed so I shouldn't be missing any libraries.

Thank you,

Lu?s

With MapServer trunk... you have to use the make install to install it.. 
rather than simply copying the mapserv app. I suppose you copied the 
main mapserv script from the ms source directory... which is in fact 
only a libtool wrapper. You can't use it.

./configure
make
make install

Thank you Alan that worked.

I think there should be some documentation on this, no way I could have
guessed I had to run make install.

Kathleen,

I wrote the following reply, and then realized that you may not be asking for this. Have you seen http://mapserver.org/ogc/wcs_format.html?

For completeness, I will leave my original response as well.

Kathleen,

Neither have I done this before nor do I know the answer, but I *am* interested in how you solve it since I have interest in munging a bunch of netCDF data. I am wondering, couldn't you use the standard variable substitution as Mapserver supports that for stuff like layer names and class names? Something like (do check the exact syntax)

PROCESSING "BANDS=%band%"

and then past in the band via the query string ?band=1

Hi, Tamas,

I believe there is at least one bug in the OGR code: the SRID is not properly retrieved from the underlying Sql Server 2008 database or its value is ignored, and therefore zero records are returned.

Consider this Layer definition:
  LAYER
    NAME 'States'    STATUS ON
    PROJECTION 'proj=latlong' 'ellps=GRS80' 'datum=NAD83' END
    CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
    CONNECTION 'MSSQL:server=xxx;database=Navigation;uid=yyy;pwd=zzz;tables=NAV_STATE(ShapeGeometry)'
    PROCESSING 'CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER'
    DATA 'NAV_STATE'
    TYPE POLYGON
    CLASS
      STYLE
        OUTLINECOLOR '#e1dd00'
        WIDTH 2
      END
    END
  END

The ShapeGeometry has a non-zero SRID, as evidenced by a query executed against the database via Sql Server Management Studio (SSMS):
   select top 1 ShapeGeometry.STSrid from dbo.NAV_STATE
    -- that returns 4269

Using SSMS? Activity Monitor, executing SHP2IMG with a mapfile containing the above LAYER causes the following query to be issued to Sql Server:
  select
    [OBJECTID], [ShapeGeometry], [AREA],
    [STATE_NAME], [STATE_FIPS], [SUB_REGION], [STATE_ABBR],
    [POP1990], [POP1997], [POP90_SQMI], [HOUSEHOLDS], [MALES],
    [FEMALES], [WHITE], [BLACK], [AMERI_ES], [ASIAN_PI], [OTHER],
    [HISPANIC], [AGE_UNDER5], [AGE_5_17], [AGE_18_29], [AGE_30_49],
    [AGE_50_64], [AGE_65_UP], [NEVERMARRY], [MARRIED], [SEPARATED],
    [WIDOWED], [DIVORCED], [HSEHLD_1_M], [HSEHLD_1_F], [MARHH_CHD],
    [MARHH_NO_C], [MHH_CHILD], [FHH_CHILD], [HSE_UNITS], [VACANT],
    [OWNER_OCC], [RENTER_OCC], [MEDIAN_VAL], [MEDIANRENT], [UNITS_1DET],
    [UNITS_1ATT], [UNITS2], [UNITS3_9], [UNITS10_49], [UNITS50_UP],
    [MOBILEHOME], [NO_FARMS87], [AVG_SIZE87], [CROP_ACR87],
    [AVG_SALE87]
  from dbo.NAV_STATE
  where [ShapeGeometry].STIntersects(
    geometry::STGeomFromText(
     'POLYGON((-126 22.1993540334789,
               -66 22.1993540334789,
               -66 51.1734146762311,
               -126 51.1734146762311,-126 22.1993540334789))',0)) = 1

Note that the STIntersects function is given an SRID argument of 0. This results in a return of zero records.

I also note that all columns are returned. That is unfortunate, as that could potentially represent quite a bit of network traffic,

1. Note that I omitted the ?tables=?? as it appears that naming a specific table would interfere with connection pooling if I?m using many layers drawing data from different tables. Do I understand the role of the ?tables=?? incorrectly?


Yes, it may be considered as being a different connection if the tables section is used.


2. I added the explicit spatial filtering (STIntersects?). Is there a better way to do this?


It seems to be a bit complicated this way. I think you should try simply setting the layer name in the DATA section. In this case the spatial filter is added automatically by the MapServer OGR driver.

Tamas

Thanks,

So no that I decided to implement the layer with OGR connection, I get this
error :

 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'NT
AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'.

This does not happens when I  use shp2img to test my layer ...

Any ideas?

You should specify valid credentials to access your database. Either by
specifying "trusted_connection=yes" of uid/pwd in the connection string.

Hi Kathleen,

I've used a CGI Variable to pass a variable in the past, for a similar
problem.  It does mean that you then use a non-WMS compliant URL query.  I
used it with a FILTER statement, but perhaps it might also work with a
PROCESSING instruction eg.
PROCESSING "BANDS=%timeband%"
Your URL might then look something like:
http://my.host.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=mylayer&timeband=7

Regards, Bill Teluk

I tried the variable substitution and it didn't work as I don't think PROCESSING is one of the parameters supported.

I also looked at the link about WCS, but I only want WMS. I'm not sure how a tile index would work as I'm only using one file with multiple time bands.

Plus, I looked at "Changing map file parameters via a form or a URL", but wasn't sure of the syntax to change the band number.

Thanks

Kathleen

Dear List,

I have a NetCDF file with contains over 150 timesteps. I can create a WMS for each timestep using PROCESSING "BANDS=1", which means I have to define over 150 layers. I was hoping to only define the layer once and pass a variable for the time or the band number.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Kathleen,

I wrote the following reply, and then realized that you may not be asking for this. Have you seen http://mapserver.org/ogc/wcs_format.html?

For completeness, I will leave my original response as well.

Kathleen,

Neither have I done this before nor do I know the answer, but I *am* interested in how you solve it since I have interest in munging a bunch of netCDF data. I am wondering, couldn't you use the standard variable substitution as Mapserver supports that for stuff like layer names and class names? Something like (do check the exact syntax)

PROCESSING "BANDS=%band%"

and then past in the band via the query string ?band=1

This is a subject of improvement in the mapserver ogr driver. OGR is now
capable to limit the fields by using OGR_L_SetIgnoredFields, but it hasn't
been utilized yet. We should also modify the OGR mssql driver to rely
on OGRFieldDefn::IsIgnored
just like for the sqlite driver. Added 2 tickets to implement this addition:
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4217

Message-ID: <CA+N3S5rRKhGqjNtBKB1U9vvRJ3nEzEg_gnWtaZXnuWF3GmU_EA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I am using the DATA parameter to pull in data from a PostGIS DB.  It
is in the format of [geometry_column] from [sql_subquery] , then in a
web application I am utilizing the WMS GetFeatureInfo to obtain the
data data. This is done by putting a DUMP TRUE in the layer section
and defining the relevant "gml_include_items".

However, my problem is in that I am able to do an ?order by? in the
sql_subquery, but it doesn?t come through to the GetFeatureInfo in the
order that I specified. I was curious if anyone has any experience
with this, and how I might get this to work.

Thanks,
Derek

Hi, Tamas,

Your reference to a geometry_metadata table is puzzling; we do not have that in our Sql Server 2008 databases except under one condition: those databases that were modified by addition of ESRI?s ?SDE? product. We find that in these databases, the ownership of the geometry_metadata table is ?sde?, which is quite telling.

Thanks for looking into this.

- Phil

Hi, Tamas,

I believe there is at least one bug in the OGR code: the SRID is not properly retrieved from the underlying Sql Server 2008 database or its value is ignored, and therefore zero records are returned.


Probably the geometry_columns metadata table contains incorrect srid for the NAV_STATE entry.



I also note that all columns are returned. That is unfortunate, as that could potentially represent quite a bit of network traffic,

Hi Guys,

Is there any mean with Mapserver and Mapscript to render a layer containing a first source of boundary polygon and another source of polygons used as holes inside the first boundary polygon.

I could achieve this by using Postgis features, but I would like to now if there is a mean doing this with layers or styles using the Mapscript API.

Regards.

You mean beyond drawing the holes *after* the boundaries? That would give you the look of one layer.

Hi List,

This looks familiar to me but it's eluding my brain right now as to why.
Mapserver / Postgis is generating an invalid SQL when trying to do an
itemquery a layer.

Here's the error from mapserv cgi

msPostGISLayerWhichShapes(): Query error. Error (ERROR: argument of AND

Notice the end of the sql it is missing (qpid = 50105) qpid being set as
qitem is that not supposed to be there :)

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated :)

And what to you mean/expect when drawing the hole?

For example do you expect to be able to see through the hole to the 
underlying features?  -- this is not possible because the first polygon 
layer would have over written any features that were already in the image.

Hi Michael,
Thanks, but I only want to know at this stage whether MapServer is written
for Oracle Spatial only, or whether it can support Locator.

I'm guessing from reading Oracle's documentation that since
SDO.GEOM.INTERSECTS and SDO.GEOM.RELATE aren't supported, that MapServer
probably doesn't support Locator.  However, how do I know that MapServer
doesn't use the SQL/MM functions instead - which are apparently supported.

Is there no easy way other than to test every possible variant of MapServer
usage against a test Locator installation?

Regards, Bill Teluk.
