I am running mapserver 6.0.1 with map files migrated from 5.6.3.

One of my map files has stopped working properly and I suspect that it may be a
bug in the 6.0.1 run-time substitution code.

The relevant map file layer sections look like this:

    LAYER
       CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
       NAME "battery"
       DATA "geom from wmd  using unique id using SRID=4283"
       CONNECTION "user=scldad dbname=benparts"
       STATUS ON
       TYPE POINT
       VALIDATION
         vucv '[0-9]*_[0-9]*'
       END
       FILTER  (stype='B' and uc='%vucv%')
       PROJECTION
         "init=epsg:4283"
       END
       MAXSCALE 5000000
       LABELITEM "label"
       CLASSITEM "state"
       CLASS
         EXPRESSION "G"
         STYLE
           COLOR        0 255 0
           SYMBOL 'dot'
           SIZE 7
           OFFSET 17 0
         END
         LABEL
           POSITION CR
           TYPE TRUETYPE
           FONT arial
           SIZE 8
           COLOR 0 255 0
           OFFSET 20 0
           FORCE TRUE
           STYLE
                 GEOMTRANSFORM 'labelpoly'
                 COLOR   255 255 255
           END
         END
       END
.
.
END

There are twelve layers with essentially the same definition apart from the
STYPE values.

The invoking URL has&vucv=137_11 but the postgresql log reveals that no
substitution has occurred. The final pgsql command still has '%vucv%'.

I suspect that having more than one FILTER with the same substitution breaks
things as all other substitutions work fine.

(I also tried putting the substitution in the DATA entry but with no better
result.)

You should use a METADATA section, something like:

METADATA
  "vucv_validation_pattern" '[0-9]*_[0-9]*'
END

instead of VALIDATION


Cheers,
Stephen
