Hello,
I have a very principal question.
Is it possible to setup a WMS-Time service with Mapserver, OGR and a MySQL database? I have read the documentation, and the example shows, that it possible with a Postgres database. I have tried it with a MySQL database, and I didn't get it work (at least I think, that it doesn't work as it should). I have heard, that there are some limitations in OGR supporting MySQL, there was nothing concrete.


There is a part of the mapfile:
    LAYER
        NAME "odl_wmst"
        TYPE POINT
        STATUS ON
        INCLUDE "../../include/general/debug_layer.map" #2 Zeilen
        DEBUG ON
        DUMP TRUE
        TOLERANCE 3
        PROCESSING "CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER"
        CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "MYSQL:onmon,host=10.130.63.11,user=user,password=password,port=3306,tables=result_current;locality"

        DATA "SELECT value AS wert, end_measure, locality.geom
FROM result_current JOIN locality ON result_current.locality_code = locality.locality_code"
             WHERE end_measure  = '%time%' "

        METADATA
            WMS_TITLE    "ODL_WMS-T"
            WMS_ABSTRACT    "ODL_Paragraph2"
INCLUDE "../../include/general/standard_extent_germany_4326.map"
            "wms_timeextent" "2011-10-01/2011-12-31"
            "wms_timeitem" "end_measure"
            "wms_timedefault" "2011-12-21"
            "wms_timeformat" "YYYY-MM-DD"

            gml_include_items "all"
        END
        VALIDATION
'time' '^((((19|20)(([02468][048])|([13579][26]))-02-29))|((20[0-9][0-9])|(19[0-9][0-9]))-((((0[1-9])|(1[0-2]))-((0[1-9])|(1\d)|(2[0-8])))|((((0[13578])|(1[02]))-31)|(((0[1,3-9])|(1[0-2]))-(29|30)))))$'
        END

     ...
    END #LAYER

I 've tried it with MapServer 5.6.5 (OGR 1.8), 6.0.1 (OGR 1.7).

I don't get any errors. The only thing is, that i get a white picture.
But if I remove the parameter "wms_timeitem" "end_measure", it works, though the dokumentation tells, that the parameter "wms_timeitem" is mandatory. Is my WMS-Time service a really WMS-Time-Service without the "wms_timeitem" parameter?

Has anybody a working WMS-Time service with MySQL?

Thank you, Best regards und Merry Christmas!

Stefan
