[mapserver-users] [EXTERNAL] KML output with blank point

[Smith, Michael ERDC-RDE-CRREL-NH]

Please always reply back to the list so others can benefit.

If all your images are empty, then there is something up with your symbol rendering. Do you get valid symbols if you generate an map image without kml output?

I've had no problem with vector and bitmap point symbols in KML output. But the images rendered to the tmp directory render correctly so that is where your problem lies.

Thanks Mike,

IMAGEURL is ok, the paths is already an absolute:


    <Style id="style_symbol_point_3.6_ff0000ff">
      <IconStyle>
        <Icon>
          <href>http://localhost/gistemp/54ae5c24_4474_0.png</href>
        </Icon>
      </IconStyle>
    </Style>

I can fetch the icon via browser.
The icon is rendered but the image itself is blank.

Dietmar,

Make sure your IMAGEURL is set to a Fully Qualified URL. Otherwise mapserver will not set the full URL to your point images.

Dear list,

I still have a problem with kml output.
My kml output basically works.
Everything works fine with line and polygon type, I get correct kml files.
Point layers works also but mapserver generated blank png's.

The bitmap exist in the right directory with the right size.
The url path in the kml file is right.
I can see the kml point layer in the gis, the points have tooltips and are clickable.
The bitmaps have 24 bpp.
Pixmap or vector layer symbols makes no difference.

Debug 5 shows no error and no kml specific information.

MapServer version 6.4.1 on windows 7 64 bit
