[mapserver-users] mapserver issues...(new user)
Hi all, I'm a new user to mapserver and having some issues with the mapfile that I have created from QGIS. Basically I am trying to create a map of Canada with major cities, highways, expressways, province names. The map outputs fine but when I change anything in the mapfile it doesnt work. I need to change the projection to a Lambert Conformal Conic, be able to display the highways if the layer is visible, the highways being only visible if zoomed in past 1:250, provinces labeled with the calibri font. For the major cities, I want to use a S3 symbol (green star) found in a symbol folder where all of the data is located while using the symbols.sty style sheet while only visible past 1:250 and labeled when zoomed in past 1:100. When I click any of the checkboxes that I created to help zoom in or out they work fine but when I click any of the checkboxes for the cities, provinces, roads etc it doesnt load. Here is my mapfile in green so I can seperate the text better. # Map file created from QGIS project file C:/wwwroot/M_Mirrlees_Assign3/markassign3.qgs # Edit this file to customize for your map interface # (Created with PyQgis MapServer Export plugin) MAP NAME "QGIS-MAP" # Map image size SIZE 500 500 UNITS meters EXTENT -143.210462 39.001401 -50.461045 85.911094 FONTSET "/wwwroot/fonts/fontset.txt" SYMBOLSET "/wwwroot/symbols/symbols.sty" PROJECTION 'proj=longlat' 'datum=WGS84' 'no_defs' END # Background color for the map canvas -- change as desired IMAGECOLOR 0 0 255 IMAGEQUALITY 95 IMAGETYPE agg OUTPUTFORMAT NAME agg DRIVER AGG/PNG IMAGEMODE RGB END # Legend LEGEND IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255 STATUS ON KEYSIZE 18 12 LABEL TYPE BITMAP SIZE MEDIUM COLOR 0 0 89 END END # Web interface definition.

Re: [mapserver-users] mapserver issues...(new user)
Thanks for the help but I'm still having difficulty! could someone send me a revised map file to show me what needs to be changed as I'm still a bit confused on where the changes need to be made on the map file! This way it will help me learning the process more!

You current mapfile has proj=longlat which should have UNITS DD (for decimal degrees) and you EXTENT is consistent with that. -Steve W On 3/15/2013 5:58 PM, Mark Mirrlees wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm a new user to mapserver and having some issues with the mapfile that > I have created from QGIS. > > Basically I am trying to create a map of Canada with major cities, > highways, expressways, province names.

[mapserver-users] query problems
Hey all, One last issue (well for know anyway)... I want to create a basic query so when I open the query I am able to select the major roads and expressways from the mjrroads layer that was created! I have already created the header and footers but not sure where to stick the particular code in the global.map file that contains the headers and footers... Here is my code.# Map file created from QGIS project file C:/wwwroot/M_Mirrlees_Assign3/markassign3.qgs # Edit this file to customize for your map interface # (Created with PyQgis MapServer Export plugin) MAP NAME "QGIS-MAP" # Map image size SIZE 500 500 UNITS meters EXTENT -240 -90 310 400 FONTSET "/wwwroot/fonts/fontset.txt" SYMBOLSET "/wwwroot/symbols/symbols.sty" PROJECTION "proj=lcc" "ellps=GRS80" "lat_0=49" "lon_0=-95" "lat_1=49" "lat_2=77" "datum=NAD83" "units=m" "no_defs" END # Background color for the map canvas -- change as desired IMAGECOLOR 0 100 250 IMAGEQUALITY 95 IMAGETYPE agg OUTPUTFORMAT NAME agg DRIVER AGG/PNG IMAGEMODE RGB END # Legend LEGEND IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255 STATUS ON KEYSIZE 18 12 LABEL TYPE BITMAP SIZE MEDIUM COLOR 0 0 89 END END # Web interface definition.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to create a query so I can query the roads/expressways from the map.

[mapserver-users] adding gifs to index.html file?
Hi there, Ok I figured that part out! Thanks! Your a lifesaver! I have one other question I'm trying to add images (gif files) to my index.html file. When I place this code into my html file it neglects to show the image... It shows a white box with a black like square in the corner (see image)...not sure what i'm missing...any ideas? Thanks,Mark From: jukka.rahko...@mmmtike.fi To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Date: Thu, 4 Apr 2013 07:55:41 + Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] output issues (malformed template name) MapServer Message Hi, The immediate reason for the error is that you do not have a referred template file in your system TEMPLATE 'fooOnlyForWMSGetFeatureInfo' For correcting this error you must change TEMPLATE to refer to something that exists. The template file must contain at least the magic string ‘mapserver template’ in the first line of the template http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html However, I have a feeling that this will not be enough for making your application to launch. If this happens, please tell a bit more about your application, how it works and what happens when you press the launch button. And absolutely add CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" "c:\good_errorfile_path_for_you.txt” and DEBUG 5 into your mapfile. This way you will get much valuable information into the errorfile. Comment out the DEBUG line once everything works perfectly for you. The PyQgis MapServer Export plugin should really be fixed. At least it should write the “wms_enable_request” metadata item. Now it does not and no mapfile created with QGis will work for WMS without editing. Plugin is also using the deprecated TRANSPARENCY and I would rather see PROJECTION blocks to use "init=epsg:" but that may not be so important. I am not sure it the plugin writes always SYMBOLSET "/wwwroot/symbols/symbols.sty" and uses SYMBOL "circle" in some type of classes but if it does it can also lead to not working mapfiles. Is there anything else to complain? I can make a QGis feature request once I have collected the most important things to correct and checked that they have not been corrected already. -Jukka Rahkonen- Mark Mirrlees wrote: Hello everyone, I am trying to create a new map and it is causing me some output issues.

Hi there, Ok I figured that part out! Thanks! Your a lifesaver! I have one other question I'm trying to add images (gif files) to my index.html file. When I place this code into my html file it neglects to show the image... It shows a white box with a black like square in the corner (see image)...not sure what i'm missing...any ideas?

The template file must contain at least the magic string ‘mapserver template’ in the first line of the template http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/template.html However, I have a feeling that this will not be enough for making your application to launch. If this happens, please tell a bit more about your application, how it works and what happens when you press the launch button. And absolutely add CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" "c:\good_errorfile_path_for_you.txt” and DEBUG 5 into your mapfile. This way you will get much valuable information into the errorfile. Comment out the DEBUG line once everything works perfectly for you. The PyQgis MapServer Export plugin should really be fixed. At least it should write the “wms_enable_request” metadata item. Now it does not and no mapfile created with QGis will work for WMS without editing. Plugin is also using the deprecated TRANSPARENCY and I would rather see PROJECTION blocks to use "init=epsg:" but that may not be so important. I am not sure it the plugin writes always SYMBOLSET "/wwwroot/symbols/symbols.sty" and uses SYMBOL "circle" in some type of classes but if it does it can also lead to not working mapfiles. Is there anything else to complain?
