[mapserver-users] mapserver and php

[Worth Lutz]

You do not have to install every thing listed on ubuntuGIS. Only what you
need with "apt-get"

Here are the steps I use to get Mapserver on my machine. Note the
python_software-properties must be added to get the apt-add-repository
needed to get the ubuntugis repository.


#
#  ++  update repositories  ++
sudo apt-get update
#
#  ++  upgrade installed packages  ++
sudo apt-get upgrade
#
#
# +++++  add repositories  +++++
#
# ++  install python-software-properties       ++
# ++  to get the "apt-add-repository" command  ++
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
#
#  ++  add ubuntugis repository  ++
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
#
#  ++  update repositories  ++
sudo apt-get update
#
#
# ++++  PostGIS  ++++
#
apt-cache search postgis  # this just finds the postgis related stuff
sudo apt-get install             \
         postgis                 \
         postgresql-9.1-postgis
#
# ++++  MapServer  ++++
#
sudo apt-get install mapserver-bin php5-mapscript cgi-mapserver

Give this a try if you have not figured it out already.

Thank you for your advice. My resistance to using the ubuntugis ppa stems
from my desire to install on my server ONLY mapserver and postgis, and other
things that these two require, and nothing else that is included in this
ppa. It's not clear to me how to do this.
