There is a very important patch to GD for this very problem of crashing with antialiasing (it's not a MapServer problem). Search the list archives for details. It's not in the official GD release, and I don't know if any linux binary packages have it, so you'll probably have to build GD yourself. I thought I saw it mentioned on the MapServer site somewhere, but a search didn't turn up anything. On Sep 20, 2006, at 3:51 PM, Jennifer Strahan wrote: > Hello Andreas, > > Thanks for your response.
