<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hi Chad,<br>
<br>
I wasn't aware that "tile" is a valid mode of operation for
Mapserver. I looked on <a href="http://mapserver.org/cgi/controls.html">http://mapserver.org/cgi/controls.html</a>
and didn't see it referenced there, but its entirely possible that it exists
and that I've just missed it. In any case, the way I'm familiar with
generating google map tiles is via the use of Tilecache. Tilecache works
as in intermediary between Mapserver and your Google map. It make the appropriate
request to Mapserver for a tile, and then returns the tile to your map. I
think this might be the solution you're looking for, <a

<br>
Best of luck,<br>
<br>
Roger<br>

<p>Greetings,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I have been trying to generate google tiles from shapefiles using
mapserver. I have been able to successfully generate maps by calling the
url <a
href="http://0.0.0.0/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=map"
target="_blank">http://0.0.0.0/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=map</a>
. but when I attempt to use the url <a
href="http://172.18.154.186/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=tile&tile=4+6+4"
target="_blank">http://172.18.154.186/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=tile&tile=4+6+4</a>
I receive only empty images, regardless of tile specified.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> <o:p></o:p></p>
