Hello Jukka,

I have added the PROJ_LIB statement in the map file. Unfortunately, nothing changes... strace still shows that shp2img tries to read /usr/share/proj/null (and it succeeds). I have added the line with the google projection to the end of the epsg (and null) file.

I still get the same error.

Is there any way I can call proj + some parameters to ask for a projection between WGS84 to Google? I'd like to close in on the problem.

Thanks,
Adrian

Hi,
First, it is possible to tell Mapserver where to find the projection files in the mapfile, in MAP section. Excerpt from http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/map.html PROJ_LIB [path] The CONFIG parameter can be used to define the location of your EPSG files for the Proj.4 library. Setting the [key] to PROJ_LIB and the [value] to the location of your EPSG files will force PROJ.4 to use this value. Using CONFIG allows you to avoid setting environment variables to point to your PROJ_LIB directory. Here are some examples:
Unix
CONFIG "PROJ_LIB" "/usr/local/share/proj/"
Second, Mapserver epsg file ships without Google projection. Without adding the definition it is impossible to refer to epsg:900913 projection with the code number. Have you added corresponding line to the epsg file, whitch is usually in /usr/share/proj/epsg? <900913> +proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0 +k=1.0 +units=m +nadgri...@null <mailto:+nadgri...@null> +no_defs Put it on the first line so Mapserver finds it immediately without a need to go through the whole list. -Jukka Rahkonen-

    Update:

    I have symlinked the null file to epsg, and now strace shows that
    the file is read, but I still get the same error when trying to
    call WMS GetMap... :(

    [r...@terra map]# ls -l /usr/share/proj/null
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Oct 13 10:50 /usr/share/proj/null ->
    /usr/share/proj/epsg

    Hmm, any idea on this one? How can I find out if proj is trying to read
    the epsg file? I'm thinking of using strace to see what files it tries
    to open, but I don't know what syntax to use to try to project from 4326
    to 900913...



    Just to clarify:

    - Your data is in wgs84 (epsg:4326)
    Yes
    - you want to serve mercator projection (epsg:900913)
    Yes (the frontend will be OpenLayers (through TileCache)
    A few questions:

    - are there any errors in the capabilities document?
    No, it looks ok. I can post it if you want, but it's a bit large.
    It outputs an XML which describes the layers, projections and
    some settings from the map file. I haven't seen another working
    GetCapabilites file, so I can't tell if it's missing something...
    - did you tried to use mapserver logging (MS_ERRORFILE) and high debug
    level (DEBUG 5)
    Here is the output after enabling MS_ERRORFILE and DEBUG 5 at
    layer level and at map level:
    [Tue Oct 13 10:36:36 2009].954434 msProcessProjection():
    Projection library error. no system list, errno: 13

    [Tue Oct 13 10:36:36 2009].954562 mapserv request processing time
    (msLoadMap not incl.): 0.000s
    [Tue Oct 13 10:36:36 2009].954584 msFreeMap(): freeing map at
    0x8496ac8.
    [Tue Oct 13 10:36:36 2009].954651 freeLayer(): freeing layer at
    0x84a9378.
    - could you try to use shp2img, maybe this gives you a bit more information?
    [r...@terra map]# shp2img -o /tmp/out.png -m
    /var/www/html/map/rtc_base.map -e "20.259999999999998 43.16
    29.700000000000003 49.2016" -s "1250 800" -l "GranitaJudete"
    This works just fine (however it doesn't use WMS!). The image
    displayed is correct (and it is projected in mercator projection!).

    If I run:
    [r...@terra map]# strace shp2img -o /tmp/out.png -m
    /var/www/html/map/rtc_base.map -e "20.259999999999998 43.16
    29.700000000000003 49.2016" -s "1250 800" -l "GranitaJudete" 2>&1
    | grep epsg
    .. I don't get any matches on the epsg file that is supposed to
    be used by proj.
    Looking through the output of strace, I can see it tries to open
    some proj-related files...
    open("/usr/share/proj/proj_def.dat", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
    such file or directory)
    open("/usr/share/proj/null", O_RDONLY)  = -1 ENOENT (No such file
    or directory)

    I wonder why it tries to open a file called null - maybe an error?
    - did you compile MapServer and the dependencies by yourself?
    Yes. These are my configure arguments:
    ./configure --with-freetype --with-png --with-agg=../agg-2.5
    --with-proj --with-ogr --with-gdal --with-xml2 --with-wfs
    --with-wcs \
    --with-wmsclient --with-wfsclient --with-postgis --with-threads
    --with-sos --with-mygis --with-geos --with-tiff
    - what MapServer version do you use?
    version 5.4.1
    - do you have Proj4 installed? (OpenLayers doesn't use the same lib, it
    uses the javascript lib)
    [adri...@terra mapserver]$ rpm -qa | grep proj
    proj-devel-4.5.0-1.fc5
    proj-4.5.0-1.fc5

    I hope it does not look like keeping you busy, but without further
    information its difficult to help.

    Your help is very much appreciated. Any idea is a good one
    because it might get me out of this predicament. :)
    Regards,
    Adrian

    P.S. If I understand how projections work - if I "call" the
    projection with it's EPSG code it needs the epsg file to get the
    details about the projection. In my layers I'm using the EPSG
    definition instead the EPSG code to define my projections. If I
    switch to codes it won't work (I have tried a few months ago).
    So, to me, it seems mapserver (or proj) can't get the definitions
    from the epsg file (maybe because it searches for the wrong
    file). I will try to create the file and try again. I'll let you
    know how it works.
