Hi all,
I am testing out mapserver-postgis and a simple test is returning an empty map.
Here is my map file
MAP
IMAGETYPE PNG
EXTENT 77.5 12.95 77.7 13.01
SIZE 550 450
IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255
SHAPEPATH "../data"
# Start of LAYER DEFINITIONS-------------------------------
LAYER
CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS
NAME "wards"
# Connect to a remote spatial database
CONNECTION "host=localhost port=5432 dbname=empty user=postgres
password=xxx"
# Get the lines from the 'geom' column of the 'wards' table
DATA 'geom from "myschema.wards198" using srid=4326 using
unique gid'
STATUS ON
TYPE POLYGON
CLASS
NAME "wards"
STYLE
OUTLINECOLOR 255 0 0
END
END
END
# End of LAYER DEFINITIONS -------------------------------
END
-------------------
And the html that calls it
--------------
<html>
<head>
<title>my postgis map</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=white>
<center>
<br>
<table width=570>
<tr>
<td>
<br>
<img width=550 height=450
src=/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:\OSGeo4W/apps/mapserver-tutorial/mytests/example.map&mode=map
border=1>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
</body>
</html>
----------------------------------------------------
Other info:
Platform:
- Windows 7, postgresql9 , postgis 2.0
- I installed Mapserver separately through the OSGEO4 installer.
- I can connect to the same database through php
- I can create simple mapserver apps using shapefiles etc alright
(e.g. same map file above, calling a shapefile, works fine)
- Mapserv.exe -v shows that it was installed with postgis support.
- Also can Mapserver handle postgis Mulipolygon geometry ok?
I did check most of the points here which seemed ok ( i did not check those in
this list that I don't really know how to in Windows ).

I realize this might be a mapserver mailing list qn, but thought that some of
you might know the answer...it might be a simple syntax problem that I've
missed...
Thanks,
Vishal
