Hi, I suspect your precompiled Mapserver does not support 3D shapefiles. At least my, a bit old MS4W Mapserver does not. You may want to try converting your shapefile to normal 2D shapefile with ogr2ogr by using the switch: -nlt POLYGON. Regards, -Jukka Rahkonen-

Only polygon shapes can be drawn using a POLYGON layer definition. I am using mapserver version 4.8.4 from the precompiled pack that is distributed from maptools.org. I can use TYPE LINE for the LAYER without getting any error but that doesn't result to the map I want to show.Any ideas? Thank you for the response! "Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ??????: You should just use TYPE POLYGON. Note I think you need Mapserver 4.6 or greater, best to try with the latest release (4.8.X). Btw, Mapserver has a compile option determining whether or not it will pick up Z and M values. # If you want to use shape Z and M parameter this option must be set. # It's OFF by default. #USE_POINT_Z_M=-DUSE_POINT_Z_M USE_POINT_Z_M= Best regards, Bart K S wrote: > Hello everybody, > I have a shapefile which is GEOMETRY: 3D POLYGON.
