DATA way from (select way,osm_id ,name from planet_osm_polygon where 'natural'='water' ) as foo using unique osm_id using srid=900913 was not working... but I just tried it again, just to make sure I don't say anything wrong... and its working. *doh* it's a valid sql clause, but useless for mapserver as it won't return any data (as the string 'water' and 'natural' are never equal) Right, I only checked if mapserver returns an error... I didn't review the actual rendered image. Lars ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] Regarding Apache
My experience is the following: I'm using PHP MapScript since ~ 2 years
as Apache DSO without noticing problems. Important is to use the Apache
'prefork MPM' version of Apache 2.+ (or Apache 1.3 which seems always
'prefork'). Using the threaded MPM ('worker') of Apache seems not to
work correctly with Mapscript. And the PHP docs recommend the prefork
MPM anyway. Apache on Windows seems always to be threaded, therefore PHP
should be used only as CGI when Mapscript is required.

But how to solve that one...
If you suspect that that's the problem with your server, do what
everyone else does: compile and run PHP as a CGI program, not as a DSO.
It is unfortunate. By using PHP as a CGI, you fix that problem, but lose
a lot of the benefits of PHP as DSO, such as database connection pooling
and being able to use Zend Optimizer. But if you're using PHP/MapScript
that's just how it is.

RE: [mapserver-users] Problems with MapScript and setProjection
I've added a small example at: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/wiki/PHPMapscriptAddLayerQueryReproject Hope this helps. ..Tom -Original Message- From: mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org on behalf of Tim Wood Sent: Sat 07-Feb-09 22:55 To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: [mapserver-users] Problems with MapScript and setProjection I've been round and round with setProjection in MapScript and setProjection today. I either get the infamous blank image or the image returns in the same proportions as the original lat/long data. Proj seems to be (at least partially) working because if I forget something like +ellps=[blah blah], it throws an error. I'd like to look at a simple php mapscript example of creating a map, adding a layer, adding something to that layer (e.g. my a simple query against a lat/long shapefile) and then project that another way (tmerc, lcc, whatever). But, I have yet to find one. Can someone share a working example or know of one on the web?

[mapserver-users] newbie mapserver question
Hello Everyone, I've very recently started working on a project to display some moving objects on a road network in the map. I would like to (dynamically) display moving objects on a road map. I got the mapserver up and running on my machine and have read some documentation from the mapserver website. What I intend to do is add some points to a layer on top of the roads layer and keep changing their position so that they appear to be constant moving on the roads. Has anyone done this kind of stuff before. I would like to know if I'm going in the right direction... Also, can someone point to the Perl-Mapscript binaries for mapserver. I'm currently using MS4W software which doesn't include them. Thank you for your time. ~PN -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/newbie-mapserver-question-tp2295097p2295097.html Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
[mapserver-users] illegible labels - recommendations?
Hello, I'm using ANGLE FOLLOW to draw labels that follow trails and rivers. In some cases, the labels are drawn around a tight curve and are illegible. Does anyone have any recommendations for improving legibility? Is there a way to increase spacing between letters? Are there certain fonts that other users have found to work well? Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks, Jennifer ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
