Hi!
I have just started my exploration in Mapserver on Windows platform with MS4W
package. I am using Bil Kropla's Mapserver book. When I worked out the first
example (of chapter 2), a simple example using mapserver in CGI-BIN mode, I get
the following error
loadWeb(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near (c):(line 1)
I tried changing the path information (TEMPLATE, IMAGE PATH), other parameters
to ensure the simple 'Hello World' example map gets displayed, but I could not
go further.
I am producing the source code below of the two files.
File: hello.map
--------------------
# This is our "Hello World" mapfile
NAME "Hello World"
SIZE 400 300
IMAGECOLOR 249 245 186
IMAGETYPE png
EXTENT -1.0 -1.0 1.0 1.0
WEB
TEMPLATE "c:/ms4w/apache/htdocs/hello.html"
IMAGEPATH "c:/ms4w/apache/htdocs/tmp/"
IMAGEURL "/tmp/"
END
LAYER
STATUS default
TYPE point
FEATURE
POINTS 0.00 0.00 END
TEXT "Hello World"
END # end feature
CLASS
STYLE
COLOR 255 0 0
END
LABEL
TYPE bitmap
END
END
END
END
File: Hello.html
---------------------
<html>
<head> <title>MapServer Hello World</title></head>
<body>
<form method=POST action="../cgi-bin/mapserv.exe">
<input type="submit" value="Click Me">
<input type="hidden" name="map" value="c:/ms4w/apache/htdocs/hello.map">
<input type="hidden" name="map_web_imagepath"
value="c:/ms4w/apache/htdocs/tmp/">
</form>
<IMG SRC="[img]" width=400 height=300 border=0>
</body>
</html>
Would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks in advance.
