Hi Graham, The map parameter is always an absolute path to the mapfile. Not a relative or a web path (alias) neither. Currently, you are using a Unix system path.

[mapserver-users] Starting with TIGER Line Data and MapServer
Hi, We are working on displaying the TIGER Data using MapServer. This is our first time with MapServer, and we would appreciate your help in the following areas: 1. We could run the Itasca Demo Application. However, we could not integrate our shapefiles with the sample Mapfile. We have read the Mapfile documentation at the MapServer site. Any pointers on creating Mapfile? 2. We have chosen a single state for our initial demo. However, the number of shapefiles is almost 300. How should we incorporate all these in the Mapfile? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks. Monali Monali ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

[mapserver-users] Tcl Mapscript
Hi, Could anyone tell me if it is possible to compile the mapserver (current version) to support the tclmapscript? The support for this interface is stoped? The last version supported (in source tree mapscript/tc/README) is mapserver 3.5! I need to use the mapserver interface+postgres/postgis BD in a Tcl/Tk UI. Could anyone tell me some steps to generate the libraries (.dll for windows and .so for linux). Thanks on advance.

Re: [mapserver-users] Starting with TIGER Line Data and MapServer
A few questions for you. Regarding #1 Were all of your shapes in the same projection as the Itasca demo? If not, their coordinates may have been far outside of the extents of the map. Regarding #2 Do you have 300 shapefiles, meaning you have 300 layers you wish to display? If so, you might want to take a look at an alternate solution than the Itasca demo. For example (toots own horn) GeoMOOSE is designed to allow multiple mapfiles to be used within a single application. It makes the management of the large number of layers much more palatable. We also have a number of users that are at the same level of layer management as you are and could give more suggestions on how to best manage that data for use in a Web GIS. - Original Message From: Monali Lodha monalilo...@gmail.com To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Sent: Tue, November 3, 2009 8:14:38 AM Subject: [mapserver-users] Starting with TIGER Line Data and MapServer Hi, We are working on displaying the TIGER Data using MapServer.

Re: [mapserver-users] Starting with TIGER Line Data and MapServer
Thanks Stephen and Dan! @Stephen The recent Tiger Shapefiles come with .prj files and do have a projection.

RE: [mapserver-users] Starting with TIGER Line Data and MapServer
Is the projection of the TIGER files and the output projection of the Itasca Demo the same? I am guessing that Itasca uses UTM Zone 15N (EPSG 26915) and that the TIGER data might be in a geographic spatial reference system (EPSG 3624?). If this is the case, you will need to define the input projection for your TIGER layers and make sure that you have an output projection set at the MAP level. In other words, even if all of the data sets have specified projections, you will need to tell MapServer what the input projections for each layer are if you need MapServer to utilize layers with different spatial reference systems.

Re: [mapserver-users] Designing a wrapper around mapserv which can be used with fcgi

Hello everyone,
I am currently using a wrapper around mapserv which receives the URL
parameters, builds the map file (actually I only need to set some
filters in the map file, but the filters need to be built after
running some SQL queries with the passed in parameters). After the
map file is built, mapserv is called (as a shell script), and the map
gets sent to the user. Currently this wrapper is written in perl - so
it's not terribly fast as a cgi process.
While this approach works, it is terribly inefficient. I would like
to use mapserv as a fcgi process (or something faster than plain
cgi). My question is - how can I /should I build a wrapper around
mapserv that can customize the MAP file on the fly and run as a
fcgi process?
Any ideas on where I should start? An example of such a wrapper?
Also, I suspect I can send parameters to mapserver and use some sort
of variables in the map file to set up my filters - but I haven't
seen an example. Can someone point me to such a documentation?
Thanks,
Adrian
Have you seen mapscript? You can use mapserver directly from perl.
And perl can do fast-cgi. Here is a little, ad-hoc, non-tested, perl
fcgi:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use mapscript;
use FCGI;
my $request = FCGI::Request( );
while($request-Accept() = 0)
{
my($req, $x, $at, $xmap, $xpin, $sid, $y, $q);
$req = new mapscript::OWSRequest();
$req-loadParams();
$xmap = $req-getValueByName('map');
$xpin = $req-getValueByName('pin');
my $map = new mapscript::mapObj( /maps/$xmap.map );
if (! $map)
{
#print STDERR - Error loading map: $xmap.map\n;
print(Content-type: text/text\r\n\r\n);
print cant load $xmap.map;
$request-Finish();
next;
}
mapscript::msIO_installStdoutToBuffer();
$x = $map-OWSDispatch( $req );
if ($x)
{
print STDERR OWSDispatch: $x\n;
my $errObj = new mapscript::errorObj();
while ($errObj) {
print STDERR ERROR:
$errObj-{code}:$errObj-{message}:$errObj-{routine} \n;
$errObj = $errObj-next();
}
}
my $content_type =
mapscript::msIO_stripStdoutBufferContentType();
$x = mapscript::msIO_getStdoutBufferBytes();
print(Content-type: $content_type\r\n\r\n);
if (mapscript::msGetVersionInt() = 50500)
{
print $$x;
} else {
print $x;
}
mapscript::msIO_resetHandlers();
$request-Finish();
}
I'd recommend using mapserver 5.6.0.

Adrian Popa wrote:
Thank you,
I will look into it. I guess through mapscript I can redefine the
parameters that get sent to mapserver? Or do I rewrite the whole map?
You can load a map into memory (I assume you were already doing that).
You said ..perl.. receives the URL parameters ...and... builds the map
file.
I assume your perl does: use mapscript?
and at some point: my $map = new mapscript::mapObj( /maps/$xmap.map );
You kind of imbed mapserver into your perl script, and can call its
functions and what not. After you load the map you can do things to it,
in memory.
In my example above, I'm using the WMS features ($map-OWSDispatch), but
you can also generate an image:
my $img = $map-draw();
$img-save('x.jpg', $mapscript::MS_JPG);

Look for the visibility of your querylayer and decide what to do
map.events.register('click', map, function (e)

if(flag)
{
var url = http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe;

Betreff: Re: [mapserver-users] Query feature using openlayers and mapserver
I have solved the problem. There is the function code in my html:
map.events.register('click', map, function (e) {
var url = http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe;
+ ?map=map/file/directory.map
+ REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo
+ VERSION=1.1.1
+ EXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.ogc.se_xml
+ BBOX=
+ map.getExtent().toBBOX()
+ X= + e.xy.x
+ Y= + e.xy.y
+ INFO_FORMAT=text/html
+ QUERY_LAYERS=querylayer
+ LAYERS=querylayer
+ FEATURE_COUNT=1
+ SRS=EPSG:4269
+ STYLES=
+ WIDTH= + map.size.w
+ HEIGHT= + map.size.h;
window.open(url,
getfeatureinfo,
location=0,status=0,scrollbars=1,width=600,height=400
);
But if I turn off the layer, I click on the map, a new window still come
out. That is not the problem. The problem is the turned off layer can still
be queried. I want that the turned off layer is not queryable.
New window can still come out without any information. Please give me a
hand.
Thanks,
Aypes

Arnd Wippermann,
Thanks for your answer. I get your idea, but it does not work.
It said map.getLayersBy(...) is null or not an object.
I want to ask in [map.getLayersBy(name, querylayer)[0].visibility], what
is the name?
If I create a layer like that:
var ABC_layer = new OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer( ABC WMS,
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/map.map;,
{layers: 'ABC'} );
The name is ABC WMS, ABC or ABC_layer?
Actually I have written in this way:
.function (e) {
if (ABC_layer.visibility == true) {
var url.
It works but this part of codes only for one layer only. If there are many
layers, the html file would be looked clumsy.
Thanks,
Aypes

Re: [mapserver-users] Designing a wrapper around mapserv which can be used with fcgi
Thank you Andy for explaining.
Actually my wrapper is very hard-core, meaning I don't use mapscript
(because I had to build it quickly and didn't have time to research
which was the best approach). Now I have more time and I'd like to tune
things up, so I will definitely start studying mapscript (If you have a
link to a good tutorial/function reference for it I am in your debt).
My wrapper just copied over a template map file, edited it (rewrites
some filters) and then it set
$ENV{'QUERY_STRING'} = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'}.map=$file;
...and then called
print `/var/www/cgi-bin/mapserv`;
It's barbaric, I know, but it worked for me. :)
It will take a bit of rewrite to add fcgi support and mapscript, but in
the long run it will be more mantainable... :)
Thanks again,
Adrian

Hello everyone,
I am currently using a wrapper around mapserv which receives the
URL parameters, builds the map file (actually I only need to set
some filters in the map file, but the filters need to be built
after running some SQL queries with the passed in parameters).
After the map file is built, mapserv is called (as a shell script),
and the map gets sent to the user. Currently this wrapper is
written in perl - so it's not terribly fast as a cgi process.
While this approach works, it is terribly inefficient. I would like
to use mapserv as a fcgi process (or something faster than plain
cgi). My question is - how can I /should I build a wrapper around
mapserv that can customize the MAP file on the fly and run as a
fcgi process?
Any ideas on where I should start? An example of such a wrapper?
Also, I suspect I can send parameters to mapserver and use some
sort of variables in the map file to set up my filters - but I
haven't seen an example. Can someone point me to such a documentation?
Thanks,
Adrian
Have you seen mapscript? You can use mapserver directly from perl.
And perl can do fast-cgi. Here is a little, ad-hoc, non-tested,
perl fcgi:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use mapscript;
use FCGI;
my $request = FCGI::Request( );
while($request-Accept() = 0)
{
my($req, $x, $at, $xmap, $xpin, $sid, $y, $q);
$req = new mapscript::OWSRequest();
$req-loadParams();
$xmap = $req-getValueByName('map');
$xpin = $req-getValueByName('pin');
my $map = new mapscript::mapObj( /maps/$xmap.map );
if (! $map)
{
#print STDERR - Error loading map: $xmap.map\n;
print(Content-type: text/text\r\n\r\n);
print cant load $xmap.map;
$request-Finish();
next;
}
mapscript::msIO_installStdoutToBuffer();
$x = $map-OWSDispatch( $req );
if ($x)
{
print STDERR OWSDispatch: $x\n;
my $errObj = new mapscript::errorObj();
while ($errObj) {
print STDERR ERROR:
$errObj-{code}:$errObj-{message}:$errObj-{routine} \n;
$errObj = $errObj-next();
}
}
my $content_type =
mapscript::msIO_stripStdoutBufferContentType();
$x = mapscript::msIO_getStdoutBufferBytes();
print(Content-type: $content_type\r\n\r\n);
if (mapscript::msGetVersionInt() = 50500)
{
print $$x;
} else {
print $x;
}
mapscript::msIO_resetHandlers();
$request-Finish();
}
I'd recommend using mapserver 5.6.0.

Adrian Popa wrote:
Thank you,
I will look into it. I guess through mapscript I can redefine the
parameters that get sent to mapserver? Or do I rewrite the whole map?
You can load a map into memory (I assume you were already doing that).
You said ..perl.. receives the URL parameters ...and... builds the
map file.
I assume your perl does: use mapscript?
and at some point: my $map = new mapscript::mapObj( /maps/$xmap.map );
You kind of imbed mapserver into your perl script, and can call its
functions and what not. After you load the map you can do things to
it, in memory.
In my example above, I'm using the WMS features ($map-OWSDispatch),
but you can also generate an image:
my $img = $map-draw();
$img-save('x.jpg', $mapscript::MS_JPG);
