Hi Anna,
While working locally, you don't need to set an
OpenLayers.ProxyHost. Put comments // in front of it for now.
tinyows-1.0.0-weather-sites.fcgi -> copy your tinyows.exe file giving
it the name you want. In Linux, you could use a symbolic link, like I
did. Here's the apache config for it. It does 2 things : it enables
FastCgi and set the TINYOWS_CONFIG_FILE env variable for this link to
use a specific .xml config file.
###
FastCgiServer /usr/lib/cgi-bin/tinyows-1.0.0-weather-sites.fcgi
-initial-env
TINYOWS_CONFIG_FILE=/opt/labs/weather-sites/etc/tinyows/config.xml
ScriptAlias "/weather-sites-tinyows-1.0.0.fcgi"
"/usr/lib/cgi-bin/tinyows-1.0.0-weather-sites.fcgi"
###
Once you start using wget, the idea is to edit the xml GetFeature
request sent and/or the config.xml file as you try it to quickly see
what causes things to not work. Point to tinyows for now, you your
proxy (yet), i.e. make your tinyows work first.
Best regards,
Alexandre

Hi Alexandre,
thanks for the good hints! This is really great! I think its not my
tinyows.xml or the Openlayers... but the error message tells something
else somehow... :(... I changed it to the following:
xml configuration of tinyows:
<tinyows online_resource="http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/tinyows.exe";
schema_dir="C:\ms4w\apps\tinyows\schema\"
log="C:\ms4w\Apache\logs\tinows.log" log_level="15">
<pg host="127.0.0.1" user="postgres" password="postgres"
dbname="tinyows" port="5432"/>
<metadata name="TinyOWS Server"
title="TinyOWS Server - WFS-T Frida Service" />
<contact name="TinyOWS Server"
site="http://www.tinyows.org/";
email="tinyows-us...@lists.maptools.org" />
<layer retrievable="1"
writable="1"
ns_prefix="tows"
ns_uri="http://127.0.0.1/";
name="frida"
title="Frida Parks" />
</tinyows>
and the OpenLayers code:
map = new OpenLayers.Map('map', {
projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:31467"),
units: "m",
maxResolution: "auto",
maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(3427000,5788000,3444000,5800000),
controls: [
new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoom()
]
});
var osm = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
"OSM by Omniscale WMS",
"http://osm.omniscale.net/proxy/service";,
{layers: 'osm', format: 'image/jpeg'},
{projection:"EPSG:31467", units: "m", maxResolution: "auto",
maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(3427000,5788000,3444000,5800000)}
);
var saveStrategy = new OpenLayers.Strategy.Save();
saveStrategy.events.register("success", '', showSuccessMsg);
saveStrategy.events.register("fail", '', showFailureMsg);
var wfs = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Editable Features", {
strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX(), saveStrategy],
projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:31467"),
protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
version:"1.1.0",
url: "http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/tinyows.exe";,
featureType: "frida",
outputformat:"application/json",
readFormat: new OpenLayers.Format.GeoJSON(),
featureNS: "http://127.0.0.1/";,
geometryName: "the_geom"
})
});
map.addLayers([osm, wfs]);
map.zoomToMaxExtent();
The layer is actually in 31467 - I want to get it working for the
frida parks example. I reduced everything else in my javascript file.
But I think I have a problem with my configuration. I am setting the
following in OpenLayers: OpenLayers.ProxyHost =
"/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url="; and I saw that you were actually refering
to a fcgi file in your config.xml. I thought I could define there the
path to the tinyows.exe like this:
http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/tinyows.exe - do I also give the proxy there?
Could you send me the content of your weather-sites-tinyows-1.0.0.fcgi
file? I have to say that I can´t follow your instructions for setting
the environment variable - I made that via the control Panel :) - and
the ScriptAlias.
I have to install the wget first on windows, but thanks for that hint
- I will try it after the restart now!
Thanks in advance,
Anna
