Thanks for the answers.... I thought that the problem was the TYPE in the
mapfile but the problem was another one... when I try to see data using the URL:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/mapserver/ejemplo_postgis3.map&mode=map
I receive the following errors:
msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Unable to initialize image.
msPrepareImage(): General error message. Image dimensions not specified.
msCalculateScale(): General error message. Invalid image extent,
minx=-1.000000, miny=-1.000000, maxx=-1.000000, maxy=-1.000000.
mapserv(): Web application error. No way to generate map extent.
My .map file contains the following:
LAYER
NAME pg_test
TYPE POINT
STATUS DEFAULT
CONNECTIONTYPE POSTGIS
CONNECTION "host=localhost port=5432 dbname=miprimergis password=****
user=*****"
DATA "the_geom FROM cities"
END
END
and my .sql to load data in the postgis database is:
BEGIN;
CREATE TABLE "cities" (gid serial PRIMARY KEY,
"city_name" varchar(40),
"gmi_admin" varchar(7),
"admin_name" varchar(42),
"fips_cntry" varchar(2),
"cntry_name" varchar(40),
"status" varchar(50),
"pop_rank" int2,
"pop_class" varchar(22),
"port_id" int2);
SELECT AddGeometryColumn('','cities','the_geom','-1','POINT',2);
INSERT INTO "cities"
("city_name","gmi_admin","admin_name","fips_cntry","cntry_n
ame","status","pop_rank","pop_class","port_id",the_geom) VALUES
('Drammen','NOR-
BSK','Buskerud','NO','Norway','Provincial capital','6','50,000 to
100,000','2378
0','01010000000000006066662440000000A099D94D40');
INSERT INTO "cities"
("city_name","gmi_admin","admin_name","fips_cntry","cntry_n
ame","status","pop_rank","pop_class","port_id",the_geom) VALUES
('Trinidad','BOL
-EBE','El Beni','BL','Bolivia','Provincial capital','6','50,000 to
100,000','0',
'0101000000000000C0CA3950C00000008097AE2DC0');
END;
I read the same error in the list but it was not the answer....
Thanks!
