[mapserver-users] MapScript EntryPointNotFoundException 'CSharp_MS_LABEL_ALLOCSIZE_get'
Hi, I am upgrading a website with MapServer 5.6 to 6.2. Website was made in Visual Studio using MapScript. After some adjustments I got it running in Visual Studio. But when I publish the website on a server with IIS 7.5 the following error appears: Error in initMapJ: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'OSGeo.MapServer.mapscript' threw an exception. --- System.EntryPointNotFoundException: Unable to find an entry point named 'CSharp_MS_LABEL_ALLOCSIZE_get' in DLL 'mapscript'. at OSGeo.MapServer.mapscriptPINVOKE.MS_LABEL_ALLOCSIZE_get() at OSGeo.MapServer.mapscript..cctor() --- End of inner exception stack trace --- In initMapJ the mapObj is created/mapfile opened. The error appears at moment that a layer object is read. I have no idea where to look. I tried removing all label settings from the mapfile. But I thinks it something else. Any suggestions/ideas?

Hans, You probably have an older version on mapscript dll available in the PATH which is loaded at run time instead of the correct version. Make sure mapscript_csharp.dll loads the proper version of mapscript.dll.

Re: [mapserver-users] MapScript EntryPointNotFoundException 'CSharp_MS_LABEL_ALLOCSIZE_get'
Hi Tamas, Thanks for your reaction. You were right that there was some kind of conflict in versions. But not with the PATH setting. On my server configuration it is required to use that. Problem was in the temporary files. I used a site that contained the old mapscript version before, The dotNet framework creates temporary files and directories for a website. Probably the mapscript dll’s were not automatically replaced in the temp dirs also not after resetting the website. Removing the temp dirs solved the issue. As simple as that!

I’m using: PROCESSING “LABEL_NO_CLIP=True” Is this a fixable problem? That's the aim of LABEL_NO_CLIP, i.e. only label a polygon at a single geographical location to prevent the label from a single polygon appearing on every tile if that polygon spans multiple tiles. YMMV, but you might want to remove LABEL_NO_CLIP and use metatiles on your tile cache (e,g: with a 2x2 metatile, your label would only be rendered in one of every 4 tiles). If you aren't using a tile cache, then there's no easy solution I know of. Are there any examples of getting labels with mapserver and openlayers using tiles and multiple overlay layers?

Re: [mapserver-users] query creation issues
Hi Mark: Personally I'd steer you to the simplified query templates as described here: http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-36.html This allows you to put everything in one place and better separates data from presentation. No more header/footer's. Plus you can have multiple presentations for the same layer. That said, the mapfile below doesn't have any queryable layers. There is no TEMPLATE defined for the one layer that is present. If you want to use the new style templating you'd do something like this: 1- Define an output format: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME 'my-template' DRIVER 'TEMPLATE' MIMETYPE 'text/html; subtype=compass' FORMATOPTION FILE=templates/my-template.html END 2- Optionally make it the default query format (otherwise you need to use qformat CGI parameter): WEB QUERYFORMAT 'my-template' ... END 3- Make layers queryable by adding something like: TEMPLATE 'void' 4- Write your template, for example my-template.html might look like: --- snip --- !-- MapServer Template -- This is my template:br/ [resultset layer=mjrroads] [feature]bType/b: [TYPE][/feature] [/resultset] Done presenting layers. --- snip --- Steve From: mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Mark Mirrlees Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 10:45 AM To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: [mapserver-users] query creation issues Hello everyone, I'm trying to create a query so I can query the roads/expressways from the map.

Re: [mapserver-users] LABELS - changing from single map to tiles and overlays - HOW?
Ok, I'm beginning to understand all the many variables. I have a mapcache which is turned off at the moment as I was trying to work on styling. For example, change one thing and redraw. Change it again to figure out what is going on. I plan on using mapcache, so if I use metatiles I then use a gutter/buffer around the metatile and that eliminates the clipping on the edges of the metatile? I think I'm putting the pieces together now!

Re: [mapserver-users] LABELS - changing from single map to tiles and overlays - HOW?
If you're using mapcache, turn *off* any openlayers gutter. In your mapcache.xml config file, set a tileset-metabuffer to a few pixels, and set your mapfile's labelcache_map_egde_buffer to exactly that same value. Any other configuration may result in labels appearing truncated in the openlayer tile'd map. -- thomas On 20 March 2013 18:10, Worth Lutz w...@mindspring.com wrote: Ok, I'm beginning to understand all the many variables. I have a mapcache which is turned off at the moment as I was trying to work on styling. For example, change one thing and redraw. Change it again to figure out what is going on.

That's the aim of LABEL_NO_CLIP, i.e. only label a polygon at a single geographical location to prevent the label from a single polygon appearing on every tile if that polygon spans multiple tiles. YMMV, but you might want to remove LABEL_NO_CLIP and use metatiles on your tile cache (e,g: with a 2x2 metatile, your label would only be rendered in one of every 4 tiles). If you aren't using a tile cache, then there's no easy solution I know of. Are there any examples of getting labels with mapserver and openlayers using tiles and multiple overlay layers? If you're using multiple label overlays, there's no way to control collision between the labels from different layers. I'm still experimenting but still confused. Any help would be appreciated.

[mapserver-users] Noob questions: configuring mapserver rpms on Fedora/CentOS machines
Greetings, I've become somewhat deft in using Q-GIS, PostGIS, along w/ PostgreSQL. I'm now set on moving into the Mapserver realm. At the risk of alienating the mature constituency of this list, I have some basic configuration questions. I have mapserver rpms installed on a Fedora 18 system. Mapserver binaries are placed in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin directories. What is the preferred (and more elegant) way of putting relevant binaries into the referenced Apache cgi-bin directory: symbolic links? or copying the binaries into the /var/www/cgi-bin directory? Or is there yet another alternative? One foreseeable issue is the maintenance/updating of binaries via RPM.

No more header/footer's. Plus you can have multiple presentations for the same layer. That said, the mapfile below doesn't have any queryable layers. There is no TEMPLATE defined for the one layer that is present. If you want to use the new style templating you'd do something like this: 1- Define an output format: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME 'my-template' DRIVER 'TEMPLATE' MIMETYPE 'text/html; subtype=compass' FORMATOPTION FILE=templates/my-template.html END 2- Optionally make it the default query format (otherwise you need to use qformat CGI parameter): WEB QUERYFORMAT 'my-template' ... END 3-
Re: [mapserver-users] Noob questions: configuring mapserver rpms on Fedora/CentOS machines

I'm now set on moving into the Mapserver realm. At the risk of alienating the mature constituency of this list, I have some basic configuration questions. I have mapserver rpms installed on a Fedora 18 system. Mapserver binaries are placed in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin directories. What is the preferred (and more elegant) way of putting relevant binaries into the referenced Apache cgi-bin directory: symbolic links? or copying the binaries into the /var/www/cgi-bin directory? Or is there yet another alternative? One foreseeable issue is the maintenance/updating of binaries via RPM.

[mapserver-users] Limit caching for some zoom level only
Hi all, I would like to limit the caching for some levels (ex: 10 to 15) and fallback with the WMS request (without caching the tiles) for the other zoom level (ex: 0 to 9 and 16 to 19) I've try this in the config (using minzoom and maxzoom): tileset name=Ortho1948 sourceOrtho1948/source cachedisk/cache grid minzoom=10 maxzoom=15google/grid formatPNG/format metatile5 5/metatile metabuffer10/metabuffer expires3600/expires /tileset The tiles are generated for level 10 to 15 but for the other zoom level, the WMS is not called. Is it possible to configure mapcache to do that? regards, MartinO ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
