[mapserver-users] Saving an image from a query

[David Quinn]

Jukka's suggestion of using "
http://mysite.com/mapserv.cgi?map=../../mapfiles/demo.map&layer=land&mode=map&FORMAT=image/png"
-O output.png

worked. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have not tried any of the other approaches yet.

-David


I went and looked at the stackexchange thread. . . . A thought . . .


In your map file, in the WEB block, try adding a line like this:


QUERYFORMAT "image/png"

Hi,


Perhaps wget thinks that certain characters are cutting the URL

string. Try wget

"http://mysite.com/mapserv.cgi?map=../../mapfiles/demo.map&layer=

land&mode=map&FORMAT=image/png" -O output.png


We have used wget a lot for downloading data from WCS so I

guarantee you will make it work by reading documents and trying

just like we did.

Hi List,


I'm trying to understand how to save an image as a result of a

query.

One approach that I have experimented with is using `wget` to

save the

file but I've been getting an error message (I asked a question

on this here:

http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/37813/how-to-save-

mapserver-

output-to-a-file

)


Is there a better way than using "wget


http://mysite.com/mapserv.cgi?map=../../mapfiles/demo.map&layer=l

and

&mode=map&FORMAT=image/png"

to store a image resulting from a query?


After using "wget" my log shows the following message:


[Tue Oct 30 14:49:02 2012].580951 msWCSDispatch20(): wrong

service

(none) [Tue Oct 30 14:49:02 2012].581041 msWCSParseRequest():

request is KVP.

[Tue Oct 30 14:49:02 2012].581049 msWCSDispatch(): SERVICE and

REQUEST

not included [Tue Oct 30 14:49:02 2012].581064 mapserv(): Web

application error.

Traditional BROWSE mode requires a TEMPLATE in the WEB section,

but

none was provided.


Thanks,

David
