You should also note that if your point is not in Antarctica, but instead in
Afton NY, USA, you are specifying your XY values in reverse order.

I try to draw single point on the map. My point is defined by lat/long

the map regardless of the lat/long defined.
Here is my code:

$image=$map-draw();
$my_point-draw( $map, $ daLayer, $image, 0, Temp Point );
$image_url=$image-saveWebImage();
What is wrong with it? I will appreciate any help.

Alexandre, Try this as a hack and see if it helps. Create a dummy LAYER like: LAYER NAME pixel STATUS DEFAULT TYPE POINT TRANSFORM OFF FEATURE POINTS 0 0 END END CLASS COLOR backgroundcolor END END and make it your first layer. This will draw a one pixel dot in the upper left corner of the image in background color, but it might fake out mapserver if you have it some funny corner case. Also can you reproduce this with a mapfile with one layer like the above, but with POINTS -2 -2 END so that it is drawn off the image? THen post you that makefile and we can try it.

Re: [mapserver-users] PGeo (Personal Geodatabases) options under Linux
Responding to both of your comments: My client regularly acquires a database of property maps from a county. The database is a ESRI Personal Database. An employee of my client has been converting this database (and others like it) to MapX files for running on MapXtreme (on Windows, as you observed). I understand it to be a rather involved process. On the subject of creating a shape file from the PGeo file: one of the layer tables has almost 200,000 records. That's just for the parcel outlines. I also would need to add the text labels and other outlines as well. That would make for an unwieldy shape file. In fact, I think that employee mentioned above actually does combine the shapes into 9 MapX layers that I have been combining for display. The combined MAP files come to 221.3MB, and 351.6 MB for all layer files. I am exploring the possibility of delivering the same web application using open source software, including MapServer, on Linux. I was hoping to use the database as delivered, because it would save time and effort. Although it looked like it should have been possible to display layers from the PGeo file, I haven't had any luck. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out if I could apply some patch, looking for insufficient buffers that I could lengthen, etc., but have pretty much come to the conclusion that using PGeo files is perhaps only feasible on MapServer for Windows, where there is native support for the MDB files. I originally asked the question because 1. I didn't want to give up too soon if someone has had some success using unixODBC and MDBTools, and 2. I wanted to know if making an exact copy of the PGeo tables in a MySQL database would allow me to use PGeo to access the layers. This seems feasible since both MDBTools and MySQL can be accessed through the ODBC layer. It would be nice if OGR wouldn't know the difference between MDB and MySQL databases because I could then run a script (that I'm working on now) that would run on Windows to make a restore file for MySQL to import the data. I hope to finish the script today or tomorrow. If it works as I hope, I'll report it here since it would answer the second question. Assuming success using MySQL, the first question is moot: MySQL would be a much more robust solution. If I can make a turnkey conversion from MDB to MySQL, it's really a no-brainer to abandon MDB. But I'm still curious, and it would be nice to document somewhere online, if it's possible to use PGeo files on a Linux-based MapServer.

Chuck, Personally a little ogr2ogr script would convert the mdb layers into shapefile layers, and then the same script could execute shptree on each new shapefile. One of the (unannounced) results that I saw in the recent benchmarking exercise at the FOSS4G event was how fast large shapefiles (over 1,000,000 records) that are indexed properly are drawn by MapServer. So my advice is to keep it simple: use MS4W on windows, write a script that can be executed each time your client hands you a lovely PGeo file, and create the associated layers in a MapServer mapfile. -jeff -- Jeff McKenna FOSS4G Consulting and Training Services http://www.gatewaygeomatics.com/ ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

[mapserver-users] Help: Getting started with FGS on linux
I just installed FGS on suse linux. Like many new users I have confirmed the following message: No query information to decode. QUERY_STRING is set, but empty. However, it is not really clear what steps are needed to get a workings example going a hello world on mapserver. It looks like gmap is outdated and there is mapdemo, but it is not installed using fgs. Any hints on getting a basic example running to test drive mapserver? I attempted the following with no luck: http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/opt/fgs/apps/gmap-demo-cvs_MS_VERSION_54/htdocs/gmap75.map. mapserv(): Web application error. Traditional BROWSE mode requires a TEMPLATE in the WEB section, but none was provided. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Dear geetha, This has nothing to do with mapserver/mapscript, but is a php error. The dl method is (correct me if I am wrong) a little outdated and has to specifically be set to ENABLED in the php.ini.
