Hi all,

I'm trying to color polygons based on a value in another dbf file.  The 
temp.dbf/shp contains my geometries, while the mine.dbf contains the same 
polygon_id field, as well as a field 'color'. However, the join itself is 
already failing.



Here's what i'm doing:


C:\DEVELOPMENT>shp2img -m train.map -o test.png -all_debug 5

OGR: OGROpen(C:\DEVELOPMENT/.\data/temp.dbf/033B5A88) succeeded as ESRI 
Shapefile.
OGR: OGROpen(data/mine.dbf/03DF3EC0) succeeded as ESRI Shapefile.
OGR: ReleaseDataSource(data/mine.dbf/03DF3EC0) dereferenced and now destroying.
msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'MyJoins'. <br>

msOGRFileOpen(): OGR error. ExecuteSQL(SELECT * FROM temp LEFT JOIN 
'data/mine.dbf'.mine ON mine.POLYGON_ID = 'temp.POLYGON_ID' ) failed.
SQL: Unrecognised primary field mine.POLYGON_ID in JOIN clause.. <br>





Here's my OGR section in the mapfile:


CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "data/temp.dbf"   
DATA "SELECT * FROM temp LEFT JOIN 'data/mine.dbf'.mine ON mine.POLYGON_ID = 
'temp.POLYGON_ID' "



I tried all variants with quotes, and also switching the mine.polygonid with 
the temp.polygonid, but they keep failing.


I've seen examples on this mailing list and on the web, and as far as I can 
tell, this is all correct and should work. But perhaps I'm in need of glasses 
:o)




As for version information, I'm using the latest version of MS4W.


C:\ms4w>ogr2ogr --version
GDAL 1.7.1, released 2010/02/08



MapServer version 5.6.3 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP 
OUTPUT=PDF OUTPUT=SWF OUTPUT=SVG SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=AGG SUPPORTS=FREETYPE 
SUPPORTS=ICO
NV SUPPORTS=FRIBIDI SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER

PORTS=THREADS SUPPORTS=GEOS SUPPORTS=RGBA_PNG SUPPORTS=TILECACHE INPUT=JPEG 
INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE



If i load the shapefiles without the join, everything works ok. So it is safe 
to assume that the problem does not reside in my shapefiles or my mapfile.


dbfdump clearly shows the field POLYGON_ID in both dbf files.


Thanks.
