[mapserver-users] shptree command does not change .qix 'date modified' when re-run?
Hello, A thing I noticed today is that when I run the shptree command on a shapefile that already has a .qix file, a simple ls -l command shows the old date of the file, it does not see it as being replaced. Is anyone familiar with this behavior? I am not sure if it replaces the file or not. -- *Raiz Roland Robert* ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Working as expected on SuSE 11, I see the timestamp change. I did notice that the utility doesn't produce an error if it can't create the file for some reason (I tested with permissions), it just fails silently. Maybe you're running into that?

[mapserver-users] Shptree fails with biggish shapefile
Hi, I have been trying to create an index with shptree for a rather big shapefile. The size of the .shp part is about 1800 KB. Shptree seems to run OK, it does not throw any errors and Windows task manager shows a steady growing memory usage. Then shptree stops without warnings and memory is freed. Unfortunately no .qix file is written on the disk. I made a test by selecting a part of the big shapefile into a smaller one and for that I could create .qix index normally. Therefore I believe that the data is OK and shptree fails because of the big shapefile size. Have anyone else experienced the same and if this perhaps something worth creating a new ticket on issue tracker? I am still playing with GDAL 1.7.0dev, FWTools 2.4.2, released 2009/06/24. -Jukka Rahkonen- ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

In that case shptree would create a qix file (for a 1.3GB shp) but MapServer would not draw it and no errors were thrown; this has since been fixed. -jeff -- Jeff McKenna MapServer Consulting and Training Services http://www.gatewaygeomatics.com/ ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] Shptree fails with biggish shapefile
You may also want to limit the depth. In the benchmarking exercise, we saw shptree creating a qix file with excessive depth. Try limiting the depth to 8 or less.

If you do, the qix will simply be skipped. e.g. DATA data/streets/streets.shp should be: DATA data/streets/streets (someone correct me if this has changed) I just verified this on Mapserver 5.0.0 (the on in current Ubuntu). It tries to open data/streets/streets.shp.qix instead of data/streets/streets.gix.

[mapserver-users] ShpTree
I am trying to figure out what I need to do/install/run to create a .qix file (tile index) for a few of my shapefiles. I have looked this up on a few pages and still am confused. Can anyone help me?
