[mapserver-users] AGG: Internal vs. External
Hello I am using Mapserver as a WMS server and would like to improve the rendered image quality. Currently we get jagged lines and poor text rendering as you can see in this link http://www.bicimapas.com.mx/SpatiaRetail.html Source are SHP files. We plan to use AGG to improve this and are using Mapserver 6.01. I have not installed AGG but when running /.configure it shows AGG Support: Internal and with ./mapserv -v shows SUPPORTS: AGG. The question is whether there is a difference between internal or external AGG support? Is this internal AGG support provided by GD? Finally, is there a suggestion on how to improve the image rendering quality? The map file has this image rendering setting: MAP NAME DemoFerre UNITS dd SIZE 640 480 IMAGECOLOR 244 244 244 IMAGETYPE png SHAPEPATH /home/bicimapas/mapdata/ EXTENT -99.070427 17.869010 -96.723984 20.839951 FONTSET /home/bicimapas/mapdata/fontset.txt Thanks in advance Alberto Najera ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] Restricted WMS access
Thanks for the information, I am getting the idea. I would not like to restrict the cgi-bin as we have some maps that are not restricted. Would it be possible to restrict only the folder where the restricted Mapfiles are located?

But anyway, Mapserver project does not give you tools for access control. Consider if https + basic authentication is enough for you. It may be if you do not need user roles and all it should do is either to give or deny access to Mapserver. Most simple way to do this is to put the cgi-bin directory behind passwords somehow like Location /cgi-bin Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthType Basic AuthName Please log in # (Following line optional) AuthBasicProvider file AuthUserFile c:/ms4w/apache/passwd/passwords Require user user1 user2 user3 /Location As a result only user1, user2 and user3 can reach cgi-bin if they give correct password. -Jukka Rahkonen- Richard Suematsu ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Hello, Is it possible to have a restricted (user id and password required) WMS service through Mapserver? If so, how can this be done? I have searched the documentation but had not been able to find if this is possible.

RE: [mapserver-users] RE: WFS set up
Thanks for the response. I removed the template call in the mapfile to force the WFS call and check what was going on. It seems to be a compilation problem so I will start a new thread on the subject.

[mapserver-users] Compilation error with WFS
Hello list, I have compiled mapserver version 6.0.1 in a Centos5 environment and used is successfully for a couple of months, including the WMS server option. I want to add WFS server capability, which was not included in the initial compilation. So I added that feature in the configure call using --with-wfs and when done, the response shows WFS Server: -DUSE_WFS_SVR confirming this feature to be enabled in the build. I then run make and all seems to work well but when testing the supported features with ./mapserv -v, it shows no support for WFS server. After several attempts, I decided to install the recently released Mapserver version 6.0.3 and try it, using the same call for configure but an error shows during Make, as follows: mapwfs11.c.496:error conflicting types for âmsWFSGetCapabilities11â mapows.h:421: note: previous declaration of âmsWFSGetCapabilities11â was here make: *** [mapwfs11.o] Error 1 What does this error mean and how should this be fixed? Am I missing something to add WFS capability Thanks Alberto Najera ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

RE: [mapserver-users] Mapfile verification tool
Well, we spend a few hours debugging a 900 plus lines mapfile. We missed a few ends, had a few extra of them plus some other errors like typos in the source file calls. So a tool like this would be extremely useful. I use UltraEdit version 14.00a and have was not aware of such a template. How can it be activated?

Both VI and UltraEdit have proven to have good syntax templates for highlighting of edited MAPFILEs. I know this is exactly what was being asked about. But upon further thought, I wonder if a VI script couldn't be put together to do some of this checking, at least in pairing of quotes and END statements. Just a thought. bobb ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

RE: [mapserver-users] Open Layers Problem
Brent, Thanks for testing it. The home/bicimapas/ path is the webserver directory tree. As a fact this same test map works well using the Mapserver templates as you can test with this link http://173.236.45.118/bcmpms_i.html which is the initialization page. Press Acceder and you will be taken to the map. The question here is why can the Mapserver template can access the file while OpenLayers does not. Is there a reference document or tutorial on how to properly set up OpenLayers to work with Mapserver?
