Hi...
I'm trying to convert .e00 international boundary files into shapefile
format using ogr2ogr, but when I run the conversion, ogr2ogr just hangs
and hogs the processor. Here's the details:
OS: RH Linux 4.7 (2.6.9-78.0.8.ELsmp)
gdal: 1.5.1 basic
command: ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" bound.shp bound.e00
output:
ERROR 6: Can't create fields of type IntegerList on shapefile layers.
ERROR 6: Can't create fields of type IntegerList on shapefile layers.
(then hangs hogging the processor...)
Even though ogr2ogr hangs, it still produces a bunch of files including a
bound.shp file. However, when I try to display that file using mapserver,
it just produces a blank screen.
output from ogrinfo for bound.e00:
Had to open data source read-only.
INFO: Open of `bound.e00'
using driver `AVCBin' successful.
1: ARC (Line String)
2: CNT (Point)
3: LAB (Point)
4: PAL (Polygon)
The bound.e00 file I'm using for testing is the North American Atlas
political boundaries file from nationalatlas.gov.
On a related note, does anyone know whether an open source file of
international political/land boundaries exists that would save me the work
of trying to combine a bunch of individual files together? I've searched
high and low and can't seem to find anything...
Thanks...
