Hi all... I want to have the street name labels placed within the width of road, in the proper direction (angle etc) just like how it appears in Google Maps. I am new to MapServer and I am not sure how I could achieve this. This is what I tried: CLASS NAME 'AP Road'

Something that would be helpful to know is whether you need something that isn't very technical to setup or not. I just rolled out the use of MapGuide Fusion using MapServer as our backend. I have it serving about 10 transparent MapServer layers in a pretty nice interface. I've begun submitting

The =~ is the regex operator. It's referenced in a Note just below all the other logical expressions... Probably should just be inlined with the other examples. You can write case insensitive regex's the brute force way, e.g.: /hello/ = /[Hh][Ee][Ll][Ll][Oo]/ Bit of a pain though. Also, if

You could simply add the path to ldconfig. Add a file.conf in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ which contains only a line with: /lib/ and type ldconfig as root. Alan On December 11, 2009 11:08:59 am Ted Spradley wrote: Stephen Woodbridge wrote: http://www.google.com/#hl=ensource=hpq=fedora+7+libpam

A couple of ways... as root, rerun /etc/ldconfig which should find libpam.so. In the makefile, add -lpam to the line starting with XTRALIBS= (I think this will work, but trying it won't take you too long...) gerry Ted Spradley wrote: Stephen Woodbridge wrote:

Thanks Alan, and others. I realize my server admin skills are lacking. So, file.conf should be named 'lpam.conf' or 'libpam.conf'? (tried both, then ldconfig as root ... still the same error) Ted S. - Original Message - From: Alan Boudreault [via OSGeo.org] To: Ted Spradley

The file name is not important. Theorically, ldconfig should read all those files and add it to its lib path. Unfortunately, I don't know much Fedora but it should work that way. Alan On December 11, 2009 12:55:24 pm Ted Spradley wrote: Thanks Alan, and others. I realize my server admin

No, you'd take their input and convert it before submitting. So if they type 'hello' you'd convert it to '[Hh][Ee][Ll][Ll][Oo]' before sending. You could do something like that in javascript I suppose. If you split them apart the filter would get applied first (so you'd see candidate Features

Does the behavior hold true with shapefiles or is this just Oracle, or can't you test that. The queryfile (foo.qf) caches the query parameters itself, not the results. The pre-5.6 cached the results but it was really expensive to retrieve them with certain types of data providers, primarily
