Hello all.

I guess this question should be addressed to the mapserver
mailing list, but I hope I could find a quick response to this
question.

I have a table in mysql database where the coordinates are stored
as (degree, min, sec) coordinates.

The connection with the database is successfull through the OGR
driver. The problem however is how to configure the layer in
order to display the locations on the map. I have downloaded
the pmapper demo map, and I'm trying to display my data on it.

Bellow is the configuration of the layer:
LAYER
  NAME "sites"
  TYPE POINT
  STATUS ON
  CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
  CONNECTION "MYSQL:db,user=user,password=pswd"
  DATA "select site_name, c1.cord_deg as c1deg, c1.cord_min as c1min, 
c1.cord_sec as c1sec,
c2.cord_deg as c2deg, c2.cord_min as c2min, c2.cord_sec as c2sec
from site
inner join coordinate as c1 on c1.coordinate_id = site.coordinate_first
inner join coordinate as c2 on c2.coordinate_id = site.coordinate_second"

    LABELITEM site_name #may need to use table.name or just name depending on 
your OVF file.
    PROJECTION
      "init=epsg:4326"
    END
    CLASS
      SYMBOL 1
      SIZE 6
      COLOR 255 0 0
      LABEL
        SIZE MEDIUM
        TYPE BITMAP
        COLOR 0 0 0
      END
    END
        DEBUG ON
END

The intention here is to display the site_name field as a point,
where the coordinates are taken from (c1deg, c1min, c1min) and (c2deg, c2min, 
c2sec)

This however does not work.
I get the error message:
Warning:  [MapServer Error]: msQueryByPoint(): No matching record(s) found.

My knowledge on Mapserver are really limited and I'm hopping for your help.
