Re: RE: RE: [mapserver-users] White screen after editing mapfile
Robert, I make the hole mapserver on my local machine under windows. I tested it with a local apache server. Then I make some edits to the mapfile (e.g. imagepath) and put it on the internet server (virtual server under linux). It runs fine. I want to do my changes on the local machine and put the updates via ftp to the internet server. The mystery is, that that mapserver works fine at one moment, but without doing edits on the mapfile, just deleting and copiing again to internet server, it crashes. Could there be a link between the mapserver (or some other process or file) and the mapfile, which is cut when deleting the mapfile. I thought that, the mapfile is read new by the mapserver everytime a new map is build.

RE: RE: [mapserver-users] White screen after editing mapfile
I'm sorry, I got the impression from your original posting that you were having trouble when adding a second shapefile to your map, thus I assumed your problem was with adding a second LAYER, or with the second shapefile. Now, it seems as if you are suggesting that simply editing the file, and making NO changes will cause a crash? Perhaps you are running into a problem with Unix and Windows file types? Please, more info, What system did you create your "original" file on? What system are you performing your edits on? r.b. Robert W.

Re: RE: [mapserver-users] White screen after editing mapfile
Hello, thanks for your response. I attatched the mapfile. But I don´t think somethings wrong with the mapfile. Everything runs fine, then I delete the mapfile from the server and copy the same mapfile to the server again. Everything is identical, but the mapserver crashes.

Thanks in advance Constanze My thoughts: - use the MapServer commandline utility 'shp2img' to debug your mapfile (see http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/utilityreference/shp2img) - try removing all layers but the one problem layer and then try shp2img with that tiny mapfile - make sure the EXTENT parameter matches that extents of that one layer - do some reading on the PROJECTION object, as you could be using 2 data layers in difference projections: http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile/projection -- Jeff McKenna FOSS4G 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
