[mapserver-users] mapcache - problems on install

Fri May 11 03:57:52 EDT 2012

Hi Thomas,
I'm trying different calls but I'm sure I'm doing it wrong because I 
can't find a description how to construct the url call with the 
different params.
http://localhost/mapcache/demo?LAYERS=vmap0&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&SRS=EPSG:4326&BBOx=-180,-90,180,90&WIDTH=700&HEIGHT=500&FORMAT=image/png

What I obtain in my apache log is
permission denied: access to /mapcache/demo denied

the folders have permission for writting, I've put www-data as owner but 
the result is the same

Could you help me to construct the url call if that is the problem?

My mapcache alias is:
MapCacheAlias /mapcache 
"/home/curs/Dearrollo/aplicaciones/mapserver-mapcache-18a50e2/mapcache.xml"

the mapcache.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!-- see the accompanying mapcache.xml.sample for a fully commented 
configuration file -->

<mapcache>
<cache name="disk" type="disk">
<base>/tmp</base>
<symlink_blank/>
</cache>

<source name="vmap0" type="wms">
<getmap>
<params>
<FORMAT>image/png</FORMAT>
<LAYERS>basic</LAYERS>
</params>
</getmap>

<http>
<url>http://vmap0.tiles.osgeo.org/wms/vmap0</url>
</http>
</source>

<tileset name="test">
<source>vmap0</source>
<cache>disk</cache>
<grid>WGS84</grid>
<grid>g</grid>
<format>PNG</format>
<metatile>5 5</metatile>
<metabuffer>10</metabuffer>
<expires>3600</expires>
</tileset>

<default_format>JPEG</default_format>

<service type="wms" enabled="true">
<full_wms>assemble</full_wms>
<resample_mode>bilinear</resample_mode>
<format>JPEG</format>
<maxsize>4096</maxsize>
</service>
<service type="wmts" enabled="true"/>
<service type="tms" enabled="true"/>
<service type="kml" enabled="true"/>
<service type="gmaps" enabled="true"/>
<service type="ve" enabled="true"/>
<service type="demo" enabled="true"/>

<errors>report</errors>
<lock_dir>/tmp</lock_dir>

</mapcache>

Thanks again,
Helen
