Re: [mapserver-users] testing mapserver large files rendering improvements
On Thu, May 15, Paul Ramsey wrote: I've been thinking about auto-building qix files... it would fix this problem and also fix the problem of the shape file that gets updated and out-of-synch with its index file. Seeing that this would probably lead to (slightly) decreased performance since mapserver-cgi would need to verify the qix for each shapefile for each request, I would at least encourage adding it as a map file option (default off). Then again, you wouldn't get the benefit of it if you don't read the docs, which is the problem you're trying to fix ;) \\kristian -- ... et nemo ex vobis interrogat me: »Quo vadis?« ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Re: [mapserver-users] Problem creating WMS

The GetCapabilities is parsed correctly, but when the GetMap is triggered, it occasionally returns text/html on error. The best thing to do is copy the request string from svGIS to your WMS server to a browser. If it is correct, you will see an image. If it is wrong, The browser will tell you it wants to download a file called mapserv or mapserv.exe You could avoid this by asking for in-image error messages: ...EXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.ogc.inimage \\kristian -- ... et nemo ex vobis interrogat me: »Quo vadis?« ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
