Yes,
Connection to oracle spatial is another animal and will take some work
to configure. Your mapping example is incomplete; it makes no reference
of any TSN entry.
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/oracle_spatial_howto
That website describes how to configure your oracle connection
Important notes]
- Your mapserver must have support for oracle spatial connectivity;
perform a GetCapabilites request to check.
- "you need Oracle client software in the server on which you are
running mapserver."
- Your environment MUST have ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, and TSN_ADMIN
correctly defined.
- You must specify the ID/TNS entry within the CONNECTION tag of your
layer:
CONNECTION "user/[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
MYDB -- that is not an ip address; its the identifier that you need to
create in your tnsnames.ora file.

Hello all,
currently I got a working map-file with some layers and want to extend it
with some more data. The data from most layers is being retrieved from a
local Oracle Spatial database and for most layers this is working as
intended. However I seem unable to get another layer displayed, despite it
being added to the mapfile and the data being available from the database.
So far I suspect that my map file is wrong somehow, but I cannot find my
problem. Perhaps someone can tell me what I am doing wrong here?
I have included the map file as attachment.
The layer I want to have displayed is called gemeente2003.
Thanks in advance,
Jochem Prins
