Re: [mapserver-users] efficiently displaying daily changing vector data
Puneet, 1. If the incoming CSV format and content is consistent then using OGR would likely be OK. If you need to modify the values to make it acceptable to Mapserver (e.g. change your angles from Heading (clockwise, north is 0) to standard angles (counter-clockwise, + x axis is 0), the PostGIS would be a better solution. Note that RFC 64 may solve the heading angle problem by allowing you to do the math in the mapfile, but I haven't tried it. Also you may want to test both CSV/OGR and PostGIS solutions for performance reasons. 2.

Thanks Thomas, That would explain it. I thought that we had converted to pcre in mapserver, but I must have been mistaken. I solved it by changing the expressions to /word1|word2|.../ style of list. Perl has a very cool module Regexp::List that lets you take a list of words and creates an optimized regexp that will recognize any word in the list and reject anything not in the list. I use it for other stuff and thought I had used it with mapserver but that was probably not the case, now that you point this out.

[mapserver-users] Re: Mapserver 6 WMS / PostGIS Problem
I found the solution: Just set THE wms_extent METADATA in the layer section and it works. Without Layers wms_extent it crashes. (Jesus, I spent three days of my life for this stupid thing. I tested with all versions of postgis (1.5, 1.4) postgresql (8.4,9.0,9.1). I am think it is ms4w problem). -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/Mapserver-6-WMS-PostGIS-Problem-tp6387007p6819004.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
