[MapServer-users] How to create aliases on mapserver docker image camptocamp/mapserver?

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

What isn't working with the configuration you have in place on docker? The locations aren't virtual hosts so they'd be sharing a mapserver config file. The config file support will fall back to an environment variable if the value isn't set explicitly in the config file - we get that for free with the CPL functions being used. So, at first glance it seems like having a custom value for MS_MAPFILE based on location should work assuming you don't have that value set in the mapserver config file.

Hello,

I'm using camptocamp mapserver docker image. I want to create Aliases so I can access several mapfiles using their file names,

example: www.service.pl/WMSNo1<http://www.service.pl/WMSNo1> instead of www.service.pl<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.service.pl%2F&data=05%7C01%7Csteve.lime%40state.mn.us%7C2d095d4e751240e1742808daef12621c%7Ceb14b04624c445198f26b89c2159828c%7C0%7C0%7C638085159479253733%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=6htBeD8jSSlM6UEANoVIQFUSFR3oQHYl%2F%2FQL3JCh97c%3D&reserved=0>?map=/etc/mapserver/WMSNo1.map.

Could you please provide me an example of how to edit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf to make it work?

On regular Mapserver I'm using this as alias and it works just fine:
Alias /Sentinel2Ukraine "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/mapserv"
<Location /Sentinel2Ukraine >
   SetHandler cgi-script
   Options ExecCGI
   SetEnv MS_MAPFILE "/DyskPlanetiler/MAPFILEs/automatyzacja/Sentinel2Ukraine.map"
</Location>

On camptocamp I created somthing similiar to code above:

Alias /Sentinel2Ukraine "/usr/local/bin/mapserv"
<Location /Sentinel2Ukraine >
        SetHandler cgi-script
        Options ExecCGI
        SetEnv MS_MAPFILE "/etc/mapserver/Sentinel2Ukraine.map"
</Location>

Alias /Sentinel2Poland "/usr/local/bin/mapserv"
<Location /Sentinel2Poland >
        SetHandler cgi-script
        Options ExecCGI
        SetEnv MS_MAPFILE "/etc/mapserver/Sentinel-2-PL.map"
</Location>

Best,
Marcin
