Hi list,
Until now I have been using MapServer as a WMS server. I've only
recently been trying out the CGI controls, which would be very handy for
a reporting application.
The MapServer tutorials refer several times to saving temporary images
using the mode=browse. At
http://demo.mapserver.org/tutorial/section3.html the map images
generated in these tutorials refer to image files on the web server (so
are not generated dynamically). E.g.
http://demo.mapserver.org/ms_tmp/EX1.9_141873269321745.png
I've tried to set this up in MapServer 6.4 without success. I've set up
parameters in the WEB section as follows:
WEB
IMAGEPATH "C:/Mapserver/apps/pms/tmp"
# Also tried "tmp/"
IMAGEURL "tmp/"
TEMPLATE "reports/test.html"
However no images are ever created in this folder when using a request
such as http://localhost/mapserver/?LAYERS=mylayer&mode=browse
<https://localhost/mapserver/?LAYERS=mylayer&mode=browse>
The template contains file names such as tmp/MyMap14187343292752.png but
these never seem to be written to disk. How can these images be persisted?
I know I could use mode=map to generate an image, but I want to create
legends etc. all with a single request.
Regards,
Seth
