hi all,
i am a new bie to fgs and i want to test one of my mapfile with
connecting to my database.
here is my mapfile
NAME "test"
SIZE 800 600
IMAGECOLOR 249 245 186
IMAGETYPE png
EXTENT -1.00 -1.00 1.00 1.00
LAYER
CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
NAME "test"
CONNECTION "user=postgres password=hellopostgres dbname=postgres
host=localhost"
DATA "geom FROM test"
STATUS ON
TYPE POINT
END
END
whenever i test the file as *shp2img** *i get the following error
msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'test'. <br>
prepare_database(): Query error. Error executing POSTGIS DECLARE (the actual
query) statement: 'DECLARE mycursor BINARY CURSOR FOR SELECT
asbinary(force_collection(force_2d(geom)),'NDR'),OID::text from test WHERE
geom && setSRID('BOX3D(-1.3338898163606 -1,1.3338898163606 1)'::BOX3D,
find_srid('','test','geom') )'
Postgresql reports the error as 'ERROR: find_srid() - couldnt find the
corresponding SRID - is the geometry registered in the GEOMETRY_COLUMNS
table? Is there an uppercase/lowercase missmatch?
'
More Help:
Error with POSTGIS data variable. You specified 'check your .map file'.
Standard ways of specifiying are :
(1) 'geometry_column from geometry_table'
(2) 'geometry_column from (sub query) as foo using unique column name using
SRID=srid#'
Make sure you put in the 'using unique column name' and 'using SRID=#'
clauses in.
For more help, please see http://postgis.refractions.net/documentation/
Mappostgis.c - version of Jan 23/2004.
<br>
any solutions will be appreciated
