Hi Jacob,
I can only state that I have seen this problem as well myself with
Mapinfo TAB files in a tileindex, I was also using them through
PHP/Mapscript. In the end I used Mapinfo seamless layers to get around
that, but that won't be an option for your DGN's.
Best regards,
Bart

Hi,
Just to provide some additional information: the map displays fine in
mapserver, but not in php_mapscript. It appears that php_mapscript
assigns a shapefile connectiontype to this layer, causing it to try to
open the DGN's as shapefile. In the mapserver CGI, this doesn't
happen. Can anyone with a better understanding of the difference
between the two tell me what I can do to get around it?
regards,
Jacob

*Subject:* [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Tileindex of DGN's being opened
as shapefile layer
Hi All,
I'm having some trouble creating a tile-index of DGN's, using
php_mapscript (Chameleon). My tileindex is a shapefile. But I
think the layer should be treated as OGR, yet the connectiontype
seems to indicate it thinks it is a shapefile layer. According to
my PHP log, it tries to open it as a shapefile, which obviously fails:
[20-Feb-2006 14:45:49] PHP Warning: [MapServer Error]:
msDrawMap(): Failed to draw layer named 'DGNs'.
in C:\chameleon\htdocs\common\wrapper\drawmap.php on line 560

I based my layer definition on
_http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/ogr_howto/#tileindex-with-ogr_
:
LAYER
NAME "DGNs"
TYPE LINE
STYLEITEM "AUTO"
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
TILEINDEX "dindex.shp,0"
STATUS ON
CLASS
COLOR 150 150 150
END
END
The DBF of the shapefile has 1 column, with these values:
location
C:\data\10nwa.dgn,0
C:\data\10nwb.dgn,0
I am using php_mapscript 4.6.1, with php 5.05. Can someone tell me
what I'm doing wrong?

Jacob
