[mapserver-users] OUTPUTFORMAT shapefiles instead of GML2/GML3 with WFS?

2008-12-02 Thread Maarten Plieger
Hi all, Is it possible to configure mapserver in such a way that it returns shapefiles instead of GML from a WFS GetFeature request? I would like to be able to output in GML2, GML3 and shapefiles... GML2 and GML3 work fine. The problem is that my GML files get very big, up to 60 megabytes, and

If you turn on statement logging in pgsql, you can see what SQL mapserver is sending to pgsql. That will clarify if there is a way for you to change your statement to get what you want, or if there's an error in what mapserver is asking for, or an error in how mapserver is processing what is return

Ques 1: Not sure how you get the regex error with [map]. That tag goes in the html template (e.g. ) but note that it will only work IF you are setting "map" on the original call to MapServer. Ques 2: SAVEMAP is not switchable, you'd have to edit mapserv.c and recompile. Steve >>> "Amiya Patra"

Hi Maarten, no unfortunately not, there used to be talk about an OGR output driver, so that any OGR (write) format could be written, but this was never implemented. Geoserver does have this functionality. Would be nice to have this in Mapserver though. Best regards, Bart > Hi all, > Is it poss

I guess the problem resides in the use of INNER and LEFT joins. Also, the order of the tables is important. The first tables specified in a query within the joins must be the ones which stablish the records agrupation or discrimination. IC Carlos Ruiz   --- On Tue, 12/2/08, mark balman <[EMAI

You'd use the icon as a symbol like so: LAYER NAME 'TheIcon' STATUS DEFAULT TYPE POINT FEATURE # This is where you specify position on the map POINTS x y END END CLASS STYLE SYMBOL "2.gif" END END END Steve >>> On 12/1/2008 at 11:08 PM, in message <[EMAIL PROT

Robert, I thought that I remembered posting an example to fix a similar issue and went back into the archives to find it. Funny thing, it was a thread that you started! The solution was to create the feature on the fly through a URL configuration. http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver

If you set the layer status to ON or OFF, your 'gps_point' layer won't show up on the map (at the default, unintended location) until you add the layer name explicitly in your URL call. David. -Original Message- From: Robert Sanson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sen
