[mapserver-users] disappearing point features in North America
I have a problem that may be down to OpenLayers or to Mapserver, or (just as likely) to me. Basically I am using OL to request WMS maps from Mapserver, and the map consists of point features with a global spread, typically around 100 points in each map. The points are defined in a table which has lat/lon in decimal degrees, and these are converted to 900913 by Mapserver where my mapfile has an overall projection of epsg: 900913 but the points layer has projection epsg: 4326. The map is defined in OL with extents: -20037508.34, -20037508.34, 20037508.34, 20037508.34 and the mapfile has the same extents applied. This all works fine when a map is first displayed, all of the points are present on the map. However when I scroll the map left or right there is a 'dead spot' where all the points in North America disappear and then re-appear, either side of the dead spot. Looking with Firebug at the bounding box that OL uses to request the map from Mapserver I can see that the points disappear when the bounding box is between left bounds of about -2370 and -3370. Only the points in North America are affected, never those in Europe or Asia. I have been wrestling with this for quite a while, experimenting with extents etc, all without any effect. Does anyone recognise where my problem may lie, or else have any suggestions how to diagnose what is going on?

[mapserver-users] RFC81: offset labels with leader lines
Hi all I see that there was a proposal a month ago to implement labels with 'leader lines', which I presume means that with position: 'auto', label positions will be calculated at a distance from the feature when required by collisions. This is exactly what I am looking for, can anyone tell me if this is going ahead and if so when it is likely to be implemented?

[mapserver-users] PHP Mapscript: getFeature / addFeature
Dear List
I'm struggling with what should be (I think) quite simple. I want to get a
feature from one layer of a map then add it to another layer. I am using
Mapserver 6.0 and PHP mapscript like so:
$map = ms_newMapobj(path/to/.map);
$layer1=$map-getLayerByName(countries);
$layer2=$map-getLayerByName(highlightCountry);
$country='France';
$layer1-queryByAttributes('NAME', $country , MS_SINGLE );
$shape = $layer1-getShape($layer1-getResult(0));
$layer2-open();
$layer2-addFeature($shape); ## I get a Mapserver 'internal error' at this
point ##
$layer2-close();
$image=$map-draw();
Extract from my mapfile:
LAYER
NAME countries
DATA world
STATUS default
TYPE line
CLASS
STYLE
COLOR 255 255 255
WIDTH 1
END # style
END # class
END #layer
LAYER
NAME highlightCountry
STATUS default
TYPE line
CLASS
STYLE
COLOR 255 255 0
WIDTH 4
END # style
END # class
END # layer
Can anyone help?

[mapserver-users] OGR to MySQL
Hi users I'm having some trouble with an OGR connection to a MySQL database. The data I'm trying to access was created using QGIS as a line layer and saved in a MySQL table as a BLOB in a geometry column. I can access and properly display this line data using QGIS, but not so far via Mapserver - nothing is drawn and I can't see any error. I am using Mapserver 6.0 and my mapfile is very similar to the example in theMapserver / MYSQL documentation: LAYER NAME testLine TYPE LINE STATUS DEFAULT CONNECTIONTYPE OGR CONNECTION mysql:testDB,user=admin,password=password,port=3306 DATA SELECT Geometry from testLine CLASS STYLE COLOR 0 0 0 WIDTH 2 END # style END # class END # layer If I look at the MySQL table using OGRinfo I see the following: Layer name: testLine Geometry: Unknown (any) Feature Count: 0 Layer SRS WKT: (unknown) FID Coumn = id Geometry Column = Geometry The issue seems to be that OGRInfo and therefore MapServer does not recognise any features in the table, but QGIS using access to the same table finds and displays the features. Anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong? Chris ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

[mapserver-users] Mapserver layer - MySQL connection

[mapserver-users] PHP-Mapscript - clusterObj ?
Hi list I am running Mapserver 6.0 under Ubuntu 10.04 with PHP-Mapscript and I have been trying to get clustering to work with Mapscript. Actually it works fine when using a mapfile very similar to the 'Clustering Railway Stations' example given in the 6.0 documentation if I use the mapfile to generate a WMS layer without Mapscript. However using the same mapfile I can't get the clustered output to appear with Mapscript when I try the usual construction along the lines of: $map = ms_newMapobj(/var/www/vhosts/mysite/httpdocs/test.map); $layer1=$map-getLayerByName(test1); .. .. .. $image=$map-draw(); $image_url=$image-saveWebImage(); This structure works on a non-clustered layer in the same mapfile. I can see in the documentation for MS RFC 69 that the idea is to use a new Mapscript object called clusterObj, but I can't find any information on how to construct a clusterObj and several hours of trial and error yesterday didn't get me very far. Can someone tell me how I should set up and use clusterObj? Chris ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

I can see in the documentation for MS RFC 69 that the idea is to use a new Mapscript object called clusterObj, but I can’t find any information on how to construct a clusterObj and several hours of trial and error yesterday didn’t get me very far. Can someone tell me how I should set up and use clusterObj?

RE: [mapserver-users] upgrade Mapserver 5.4 to 6.0 (gulp!)
Hi Brent Thank you for your very helpful comments, much appreciated. It is pretty clear to me that I have to start by changing my elderly Fedora to something better suited to supporting GIS applications including Mapserver 6.0. It is strange - I'm not at all afraid of PHP/Mapscript (although the documentation is not great) or of Javascript, but the whole Linux world is just so confusing that I get a form of paralysis by analysis soon after I start trying to compare the different options. Anyway I will certainly take a look at Ubuntu / OpenSuse.

Hi Chris, I'm a Suse/Ubuntu user, in both cases totally because of the well supported GIS related packages for these distros. So I have completely avoided the issues are facing right now :-) Though I'd imagine it will not be long before 6.0 is available natively for Fedora, given 5.6 is supported. I'm not too familiar with the RH Linux family, but the OpenSuse Geo repository partially supports Centos RH4/5, and I have found the maintainers there to be very helpful. If a RH or Centos build will be compatible with Fedora, it would be worth asking around there. Mapserver is not currently built for these distros, but someone may be prepared to do this for you. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Application:/Geo/ Personally, I'd suggest you switch to a distro that does what you want, if that includes well maintained supported, pre-built mapserver ( related) packages, Ubuntu OpenSuse are well worth considering.

[mapserver-users] FW: FGS Linux - PHP question
Dear Mapserver users, I sent the following to the foss-gis forum this morning, but got no response. I'm wondering if any of you Mapserver experts can help me out with this problem? Earlier today I tried to re-install PHP, leaving the other FGS components intact. I did this after unzipping PHP 5.2.17 and using the command: # ./configure --with-apxs=/opt/fgs/www/bin/apxs --with-mysql However I get the error message: sorry I was unable to successfully run APXS. Possible reasons: 1. Perl is not installed; 2. Apache was not compiled with DSO support; 3. 'apxs' is not in your path So I failed to upgrade PHP (for mysql support), and I can't see why. Nor I can find out if re-installing the whole FGS package gives me the option of enabling mysql on the PHP component. As you may realise I am still learning about Linux! Can anyone help? In the end all I need is what I have already (FGS 5.4.0) but with PHP enabled for mysql.

The PHP version that came with FGS is 5.2.5 and by using info.php I can see that it is not configured to support MySQL. As I see it my choices are: 1. Upgrade the existing PHP 5.2.5 to incorporate MySQL support 2. Re-install FGS using the current version, which I see incorporates PHP base 5.2.9 (I assume this is configured to support MySQL???)

RE: [mapserver-users] WFS Server does not support VERSION 1.1.0
Hi Assefa I am using a Virtual Private Server and my ISP tells me that it uses Linux 5.2.1. The Mapserver version is 5.6.3, which came with the latest FGS version downloaded two days ago. The VPS comes with Apache pre-installed so I have 2 versions of Apache running, one already there and the other installed as part of the FGS package (the FGS version uses port 81). Since asking for help I have continued to try modifications to my map file (which still runs fine under MS4W although with a number of directory changes for Linux) but I still have the same problem - either no WFS results with 1.0.0 or with 'WFS Server does not support VERSION 1.1.0' I don't know much (actually almost nothing) about Linux.

It's kinda dependent on what client environment you're using. OpenLayers, for example, has a hover control that you can use to do this. This site uses that technique to provide tooltips. http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/waters/csg/index.html Basically if you pause the mouse for n seconds you fire a hover event which does a MapServer query.

There is a link to a good example of this on the Mapserver website: http://maps.dnr.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv48?map=/usr/local/www/docs_maps/e co/rsg/search/search_example.map http://maps.dnr.state.mn.us/cgi-bin/mapserv48?map=/usr/local/www/docs_maps/ eco/rsg/search/search_example.mapqlayer=countymode=nquerysearchmap=true qlayer=countymode=nquerysearchmap=true It is probably my lack of web/javascript design experience but the fact is that I have totally failed to make any kind of mouseover work with mapserver. Can anyone provide the source code of something that works? Chris ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
[mapserver-users] Place names...?
Hi all Apologies in advance if this turns out to be a stupid question, but I can't find a way to make Map Server v5.0 display place names. I have created a shape file with points for towns and cities, each of which has a label. If I check this layer with Quantum GIS (which I used to create the points) I can display both the points and the labels showing town and city names. However when I define this layer in the mapfile with type 'point' MapServer gives me a display of the points but not the labels. If I define it as type 'annotation' I don't see either points or labels. I feel sure I am missing something obvious but after quite a few hours I am stuck. Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?

[mapserver-users] MapServer Demo
Hi All I have a problem that I can see has been experienced by others, but the advice given to those others does not fix my problem. I have successfully installed Map Server and Apache onto winXP using ms4W, and downloaded the Demo. I put the workshop-5.0 directory in the Apache.htdocs directory, and I have modified the index.html file and Itasca.map files in what seems to be a logical way. My problem is that when I launch the application I get the error message: msSaveImageGD(): Unable to access file. Unable to open file /C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/ITASCA12433555452596.png for writing. It seems that this is related to the way that I modified the index.html file, which I did as follows: var snippet = IMAGEPATH '/C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/'; snippet += IMAGEURL '/ms-tmp/'; I have been tearing my hair out for a few hours trying to see what I have done wrong. Anyone got any suggestions please? Chris Green ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
RE: [mapserver-users] MapServer Demo
David Thanks for the suggestion, but that doesn't do it - same error message. I have been wondering if the problem has to do with the tmp file not having permission for other (web-based) users to access it, but I tried declaring it as a system environment variable, still no success. Going round in circles now...
