much about what I'm doing with it. That being said, I am having trouble
displaying a PostGIS layer through MapServer.
Right now I'm just experimenting with PostGIS and simply trying to get a
layer to display. I
Bob,
Typical problems are
- the connecting user (postgisuser) does not have privilege to
access the table
- coordinate system is not specified in data (SRID=-1) and not
