[mapserver-users] URL redirection under IIS

[Robert Sanson]

Hi James

The following works for Apache:

1. Copy your mapserv executable (mapserve.exe under Windows in the cgi-bin folder or make a symbolic link under Unix) and give it a different name (eg the name of your map file without the .map extension).

2. Edit your httpd.conf file and include something like the following:

SetEnvIf Request_URI "/cgi-bin/mymap?" MS_MAPFILE=/mnt/gisdata/apps/service/mymap.map

3. Restart Apache

Then you should be able to use the shorter form.

Regards,

Robert

Subject: [mapserver-users] URL redirection under IIS

Hi,
It's been a long time since I set up a mapserver, and I can't find my documentation on how to have the server answer up to a shortened URL.  I would like it to respond to:

http://servername/radeswms.exe& 

Instead of:

http://servername/mapserver/mapserv.exe?map=c:\mapdata\servmap.map&

Can someone remind me how to configure that using URL redirection?  I'm on Server  2008 and IIS 7.
Thanks,
James
