[postgis-users] data in mapserver

[Frances Collier]

I'm not sure if this is the correct listing to post to, but I thought I'd
give it a try. I am trying to load a layer from postgis into mapserver. I
believe I finally got the connection working correctly, but when I run the
.map through mapserver the layer does not show up. I then tried to run the
.map file through shp2img and the layer did not show up. I have no idea what
I'm doing wrong and am sure it has to do more with my lack of experience
with mapserver than postgis. Below is the layer code from my .map file.

 

LAYER

     GROUP "roads"

     CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS

     CONNECTION "dbname=dcmms user=postgres password=w0rk1n

          END

          LABEL

               TYPE truetype

               FONT "arial"

               MINFEATURESIZE 50

               MINDISTANCE 100

               ANGLE auto

               COLOR 0 0 0

               SIZE 8

          END

     END

END

 

Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.
