Hello All, I'm finding a difference between the image produced by shp2img and a WMS GetMap request. The image produced by shp2img looks as I expect honoring the order in which LAYERS are defined in the map file and the STATUS value. However, the WMS request does not seem to respect the order of the LAYERs, always drawing the polygons first regardless of the order defined in the map file or that of the WMS LAYERS request parameter.
Here's a representative WMS request: http://localhost/cgi-bin/basicworld?request=getmap&service=wms&width=500&height=250&bbox=-180,-90,180,90&srs=EPSG:4326&version=1.1.1&layers=countries&format=png Both the cities and countries layers display as you'd expect, but the countries draw on top of the cities contrary to what I'd expect and different that in the shp2img output. I'm using mapserver version 6.0.1 and I've tried various versions of WMS. Can someone please examine the map file below and point out what I'm doing wrong? Thanks! --john MAP NAME basicworld SIZE 720 360 EXTENT -180 -90 180 90 UNITS DD SHAPEPATH "/Users/jcc/shapefiles" IMAGETYPE PNG WEB IMAGEPATH "/Library/WebServer/Documents/output" IMAGEURL "/output/" METADATA "ows_title" "BasicWorld Server" "ows_onlineresource" "http://localhost/cgi-bin/basicworld?"; ##required "ows_srs" "EPSG:4326" "ows_onlineresource" "http://localhost/cgi-bin/basicworld?"; ## Recommended "ows_enable_request" "*" END END PROJECTION "init=epsg:4326" ##required END SYMBOL NAME 'circle' TYPE ELLIPSE POINTS 1 1 END FILLED TRUE END LAYER NAME countries TYPE POLYGON STATUS on DATA "country" CLASS OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0 COLOR 167 167 167 END END # layer LAYER NAME cities TYPE POINT STATUS default DATA "cities" CLASS SYMBOL 'circle' SIZE 6 COLOR 204 153 255 END END # layer END # Map File_______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
