We do that kind of join with a lot of our data. Here's a code snippet from a polygon layer in one of our maps:

LAYER #Service area poly layer starts here
   NAME Service_areas
   CONNECTIONTYPE ogr
   CONNECTION "/path/to/shape/file/on/mapserver/cpws.shp"
DATA "SELECT * FROM cpws LEFT JOIN 'MYSQL:databasename,host=mysqlhostname,user=mysqluseraccount,password=mysqluserpassword'.sysstatus ON cpws.id = sysstatus.permit"

*cpws is the shape file (on the map server), and sysstatus is a table on our MySQL server (different boxes); the join is being performed on cpws.id and sysstatus.permit.
Hope this helps.

Hello,

It's the first time i try to make a JOIN in a mapfile layer. I want to query
a mysql database for some attributes (columns) of a selected point from the
point layer.

This is the layer definition:

  LAYER # States point layer 1 begins here
    NAME         "meteostations"
    DATA         meteostationstotal_11
    STATUS       ON
    TYPE         POINT
    CLASS
      SYMBOL 'circle'
      SIZE 8
      COLOR 255 0 0
      OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
    END
    TEMPLATE "sometemplate.html" TOLERANCE 3 TOLERANCEUNITS PIXELS
    METADATA
      "DESCRIPTION"    "Meteo stations"
      "RESULT_FIELDS"  "A sin_kod NAME IME longi X_COO lat Y_COO"
# the result fields are mixed - the* names of some columns* from the
shapefile and from the database
    END
    JOIN
      NAME FirstJoin
      CONNECTION
'MYSQL:meteo,host=some_IP,user=myuser,password=mypassword,tables=bgc'
      CONNECTIONTYPE ogr
      FROM A
      TABLE bgc
      TO sin_kod
      TYPE ONE-TO-ONE
    END
  END # States point layer 1 ends here

I receive no error (neighther in the mapserver.log file, nor in the web
server logs) BUT I don't receive any info from the database.

Thanks in advance!

I'm running the latest version of MS4W on a virtual private server with the
following:

-          2003 Server

-          IIS 6.0

-          Intel Xeon CPU 3.20Ghz

- 640MB RAM
I have one shapefile 850KB and a basic mapfile like below:

MAP

                END

        END

END #end of layer

END # end of mapfile

I'm sending WMS GetMap requests to the layer from my localhost and
monitoring CPU on the server.

Every time I send a request the server CPU hits 100% until the request ends.

1)      Is 640MB RAM enough to cope with this simple request?

2)      Is there anything wrong with the mapfile?

3)      Are there any methods I can use to tune this further?

Cheers,

Steve
