Thomas,
Thank you for getting back to me! These new features are exactly what I need. I will definitely give the new version a try. Thanks!

Make sure to read the migration-guide.txt as the syntax to define dimensions has changed a little. -- Thomas On Feb 1, 2016 12:33 PM, "Carola Kaiser" <ckai...@cct.lsu.edu <mailto:ckai...@cct.lsu.edu> > wrote: Hello, I am using MapServer 7.0 with MapCache and would like to customize the cache storage directory structure by using several dimensions as subfolders. The goal is to get a cache folder structure like: C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/cache/{YEAR}/{MONTH}/{DAY}/{z}/{y}/{x}.{ext} Here is what I have tried in my mapcache.xml file: 1. Use the <base></base> absolute path <cache name="disk" type="disk"> <base>C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/cache/</base> </cache> <source name="vmap0" type="wms"> … </source> <tileset name="test"> <source>vmap0</source> <cache>disk</cache> <grid>WGS84</grid> <format>PNG</format> <dimensions> <dimension type="regex" name="YEAR" default="2016">^[0-9]{4}$</dimension> <dimension type="regex" name="MONTH" default="00">^[0-9]{2}$</dimension> <dimension type="regex" name="DAY" default="00">^[0-9]{2}$</dimension> </dimensions> </tileset> This works pretty nice but the final folder structure is: C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/cache/test/WGS84/{YEAR}/{MONTH}/{DAY}/{z}/{y}/{x}.{ext} How can I get rid of the test/WGS84 folders? 2. Use the cache template tag <cache name="disk" type="disk" layout=”template”> <template>C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/cache/{YEAR}/{MONTH}/{DAY}/{z}/{y}/{x}.{ext}</template> </cache> <source name="vmap0" type="wms"> … </source> <tileset name="test"> <source>vmap0</source> <cache>disk</cache> <grid>WGS84</grid> <format>PNG</format> <dimensions> <dimension type="regex" name="YEAR" default="2016">^[0-9]{4}$</dimension> <dimension type="regex" name="MONTH" default="00">^[0-9]{2}$</dimension> <dimension type="regex" name="DAY" default="00">^[0-9]{2}$</dimension> </dimensions> </tileset> The template does only allow me to concatenate all dimensions like {YEAR}_{MONTH}_{DAY} but not to create a subfolder name from each dimension: /{YEAR}/{MONTH}/{DAY}/ Is it possible to customize the cache folder structure and how can I achieve this? Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks!
