That sounds really easy.  I'd be willing to give it a shot to see if it'd work.

I was able to get swig and mapscript installed but am getting an error when I try to test the installation with shp2img.  The error I'm getting is this:

dyld: NSLinkModule() error
dyld: Symbol not found: _intarray_setitem
  Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/i686-darwin8.6.1/mapscript.bundle
  Expected in: flat namespace

Trace/BPT trap

Any ideas what the problem could be?

Thanks.

It *should* be as simple as dropping these files into the mapserver
source folder (no need to have it built) and following the
instructions for building the Ruby mapscript.  I see two possible
problems:

- You would also have to install Postgres.  Or edit the mapscriptvars
file.

- Since you're new to all this, did you get SWIG installed somehow?
The Ruby mapscript readme says you need that.


Otherwise rebuilding MapServer from scratch + Graphics Libs and GIS
Libs works well enough also.
