[Qgis-user] how to export mapfile in qgis?

[John C. Tull]

You might try to use the non-python version of the Mapserver export  
plugin. Gary ported from C++ to python, but I have had problems also  
with the python module, but on OS X. Try removing the plugin with the  
plugin manager, then deleting the actual plugin from your python  
plugin directory. I do not know where that directory exists on  
Windows, so maybe someone else can chime in on that. Afterwards, the  
0.1 version of the plugin should be available in the Plugin Manager  
dialog. That is the C++ version.
