Re: [mapserver-users] How to link Oracle attributes to SHAPEFILE
Hi Pedro, A number of years ago i had a situation like you describe below. The solution we chose was: - Create a postgresql/postgis datawarehouse - Import shapefiles into postgis (shp2psql or ogr2ogr) - Import attribute info from oracle into postgresql (we needed a commercial license for converting Oracle to Postgresql) - Either create a view or merge tables to join the geometry and attribute info - Serve the lot through MapServer WFS/WMS I hope this helps.

RE: [mapserver-users] Inconsistency between 5.4 and 5.2.1 concerningWhichShapes()?
Steve, you are absolutely right, according to #2689 i tried commenting
out the msLayerWhichItems (layer.i) prior to msLayerWhichShapes in
the 5.4 release. The item setup is thus maintained.
While i'm afraid to mess with maplayer.c and maybe this will sound silly
,i observed that within maplayer.c in function msLayerWhichItems()
at line 402, a cleanup of the previous item selections is performed:
msLayerFreeItemInfo(layer);
if(layer-items) {
msFreeCharArray(layer-items, layer-numitems);
layer-items = NULL;
layer-numitems = 0;
}
I commented out the whole cleanup and observed that in the whole code
below whenever needed (eg if classify is true) the elements subject to a
cleanup are just safely overwritten. Moreover, commenting out the cleanup
fixes the problem in my humble opinion.

That fix
may need more work as I imagine the msLayerWhichItems() is clobbering
the
item setup done when the layer is opened.
Hmmm, how to fix...

Hello list, I recently migrated to 5.4. I observed the following
inconsistency
and I would be grateful if someone can duplicate the problem too.
In my (mapscript python) code i manually grab layer features using:
layer.open()
status = layer.whichShapes(map.extent)
while (1):
shape = layer.nextShape()
if shape==None:
break
print shape.numvalues
The last print returns the number of non-spatial attributes.
In mapserver 5.2.1 it is returned correctly but in 5.4 is always 0
just like all the non spatial values are all null.

Just a windows guy me :-) But let me try: Is it possible that you have multiple Oracle Homes setup? And sqlplus is using the home where oracle server is installed whereas mapserver is using another (oracle client?) home which does not have the tnsnames setup correctly? In a windows setup i would first check the PATH environment variable. If the oracle client install is the first on the list then this is what mapserver would use. You mention a path /usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3/client- does this folder also contains a network\admin\tnsnames.ora file? Maybe this is the one you need to change (again maybe talking complete rubish here as on idea abt this OS) Finally- another idea just to make sure its not a WFS problem. Are you able to get an image by simply using cgi-bin e.g. http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserve?map=...,mode=map etc??

RE: [mapserver-users] Inconsistency between 5.4 and 5.2.1concerningWhichShapes()?
Stupid error on my part. I was worried about getting the right set of shapes out
and spaced the correct item list part. Ugh...
I'm not sure that removing the cleanup is the answer. Users could switch
shapefile
sources between layer open/close or change items used to label or classify
features
and you could leak memory. I'll look at that closer though.
I have this fixed in a sandbox for 6.0 where msLayerWhichItems() was totally
re-written, so I just need a band-aid for 5.4. Will re-open #2689...

Re: [mapserver-users] C# connectiontype issue
I have a raster layer in map file. When I load the map file using C# map script, at run time it shows layerObj.connectiontype as ‘MS_CONNECTION_TYPE.MS_SHAPEFILE’ though it is raster image. Is there any syntax error with my map file definition. I need to know exactly whether it is a raster or vector layer in my application. Some logic in my application needs to handle them differently. This is the entry in map file LAYER DATA 14m_jpg_24bit.jpg NAME 14m Jpg 24bit STATUS ON TYPE RASTER UNITS METERS END Murty, I believe the connectiontype value is left to the default for raster layers, which happens to be MS_SHAPEFILE. The connectiontype does not really apply for layers of type RASTER. I think to distingish layer types properly you will need to examine both the TYPE and CONNECTIONTYPE fields.

Re: [mapserver-users] Automatically Clearing Old Map Images
Thank you! I did a little research, and writing a .bat file to execute as a
scheduled task
is exactly what I needed. The file is simple:
@echo off
cd C:\OSGeo4W\tmp\ms_tmp
del *.png
cls
echo Your MapServer cache has been cleared!
echo.
pause nul
Saved as 'clearCache.bat' and added it as a scheduled task through Windows
System Tools. I added the message just for diagnostic purposes, but I'll
probably delete it once I'm sure this will work.

Re: [mapserver-users] Outline on the roads label boxes
You can however, develop separate classes based on label length. You'd have
different
symbols to handle wide text vs. narrow. For example:
LABELITEM 'myitem'
CLASS
EXPRESSION (length('[myitem]') 5) # use a really wide shield
STYLE
SYMBOL 'reallywideshield'
...
END
END
CLASS
EXPRESSION (length('[myitem]') 3) # use a wide marker
STYLE
SYMBOL 'wideshield'
...
END
END
CLASS # default to a regular shield
STYLE
SYMBOL 'shield'
...
END

The label background is getting quite cluttered actually, we have
backgroundcolor, backgroundshadowcolor, backgroundshadowsize, and
maybe a couple of others I'm forgetting.
maybe we could add something equivalent to backgroundstyle that would
have the same syntax as a class STYLE, that would then be passed on as
a normal style to msDrawShadeSymbol, along with the shapeobj
corresponding to the background shade.
we'd then have all the goodness of mapserver styles: outlines,

I am mostly interested in using these in the context of WCS. Here is my current non-working example of an HDF file test in my current WCS map file: ... DATA 'HDF4:/public/A20081932008200.L3m_8D_CHLO_9.hdf://l3m_data' Peter, You need to use the gdalinfo command on the .hdf base file to get a list of subdatasets within the file. If the gdalinfo reports something like: SUBDATASET_16_NAME=HDF4_EOS:EOS_SWATH:MOD07_L2.A2000110.0220.002.2000196104217.hdf:mod07:Retrieved_Moisture_Profile SUBDATASET_16_DESC=[20x406x270] Retrieved_Moisture_Profile mod07 (16-bit integer) SUBDATASET_17_NAME=HDF4_EOS:EOS_SWATH:MOD07_L2.A2000110.0220.002.2000196104217.hdf:mod07:Retrieved_Height_Profile SUBDATASET_17_DESC=[20x406x270] Retrieved_Height_Profile mod07 (16-bit integer) Then you might put the following in your .map file: DATA 'HDF4_EOS:EOS_SWATH:MOD07_L2.A2000110.0220.002.2000196104217.hdf:mod07:Retrieved_Moisture_Profile' The key is to use _NAME portion of the subdatasets reported by gdalinfo. Best regards, Hello Frank, I don't get any of those entries when I run gdalinfo against the file. There is one SDS in the root of the HDF file called 'l3m_data'.

Just put the name of the file in the DATA statement. The more complex syntaxes are only needed when one hdf file contains many products.

Re: [mapserver-users] avl files
give it fake directories as if you are using MS4W, then edit the mapfile it generates and substitute your linux paths... percy On 4/28/2009 1:43 PM, Paul Alarcon wrote: Helllo is me again, i tried it but it ask me for a installed mapserver on windows and i use a linux server for mapserver, there is another software for make it for linux server ? ___ -- David Percy Geospatial Data Manager Geology Department Portland State University http://gisgeek.pdx.edu 503-725-3373 ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
