Re: [mapserver-users] Trouble shooting SLD?

2010-10-20 Thread Barend Köbben
HI,

I missed the beginning of this thread, just chip in to ask if you did not
overlook the basis: Does MS actually read the SLD? I found that to be a
problem in earlier work, see below an extract from an old mail to this list.
If it's not that, sorry...

Barend Köbben (ITC)

(..) Almost always I find this kind of problem having not much to do
with the SLDs themselves, but with TMP file settings. This is certainly more
likely if you say sending the SLD it in SLD-BODY works.

Using SLDs is dependent on the correct setting of the two settings
 IMAGEPATH  -- where the mapserver software puts the SLD and other temporary
files
 IMAGEURL -- where the web browser and other http services pick them up.

Setting these incorrectly, and more importantly their security setting
incorrrectly, will normally give no problems, but when using SLDs (and also
in other cases, eg. when chaining Mapserver to external WMS and WFS
services), they will make MS malfunction, but SILENTLY (ie. No error
messages).

Eg. in our set ups of a WMS with external SLD they are set as follows:

For  a *nix setup ( MacOSX) with Mapserver CGI 'behind'  Apache:
WEB
IMAGEPATH /Users/kobben/Sites/ms_tmp/
IMAGEURL http://localhost/~kobben/ms_tmp/;
##
METADATA
   [all your web metadata...]
END #metadata
END #web

For a Win box with Mapserver CGI 'behind'  IIS:
  IMAGEPATH C:/tmp/ms_tmp/
  IMAGEURL http://geoserver.itc.nl/ms_tmp/;

The IMAGEPATh is a directory that is reacheable by Mapserver at this real
location (in this case expressed as Unix BSD path on my MacOSX or as  UNC
path on Win) and that has read  write access set  for the Mapserver
process. Eg. on the Winbox it should have write access for the anonymous
system service account under which Mapserver runs (usually something like
SERVERNAME\IWAM_SERVERNAME).

You can test this by seeing if files with names like) are being created when
you request the WMS with external SLD. If they are the IMAGEPATH celarly
works. Then test if you can point a browser to the IMAGEURL and pick up the
tmp file. If that worsk the IMAGEURL is also OK. Now it should work...

Hope this helps.

 Thanks again for your assistance.
 
 The SLD file I was using was from the mapserver repository that Jeff
 posted earlier in the thread. I went ahead and edited it and removed all
 the differing bits from yours. No change, still not reading the SLD file.
 
 I then decided to create a line file, in case the issue was polygons,
 and use the SLD file you posted, with the only change being the name,
 still not working.
 
 I went through and changed all the names to be different, then tried
 matching the SLD name with different parts in the odd hope it would
 work, again no luck.
 
 No matter what I do it seems the SLD is being ignored.

   Hi,
 
 I have never made a single SLD file myself, just edited something
 working that I have found so unfortunately I fear I cannot give very
 good advice. I did, however, compare something that works for me and
 your SLD file and these are the differences:
 
 My first line has more elements:
 StyledLayerDescriptor version=1.0.0

 xmlns:gml=http://www.opengis.net/gml;

 xsi:schemaLocation=http://www.opengis.net/sld
 http://schemas.opengis.net/sld/1.0.0/StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd;
 
 You have Title, I don't. Hard to believe this is critical, though
 TitleCommunities/Title
 
 Then you are giving the geometry element as
 
 Geometry
 PropertyNameCommunities/PropertyName
 /Geometry
 
 I do not have that element at all.  Mapserver documentation says that it
 is not supported and I also believe that now it is wrong in your SLD.  I
 understand that your SLD is trying to telll now that the geometry of
 your layer is stored in a field named Communities.  By the way, it
 might be better to use different names in various places instead of
 Communities everywhere at least when testing.
 
 Geoserver folks have made a SLD cookbook
 http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld-cookbook/index.html
 it is probably worth reading.
 
 And here is the SLD that I looked at when doing comparison. I took it
 out from my working Mapserver layer with GetStyles. Perhaps you could
 try the same, style your layer to look good by editing the mapfile and
 take the SLD out with GetStyles and you should have a good template in
 your hands.

Frank,

I've left those RRD and I suspect that for some reason the pyramids are not
read... In fact the performance is very good for zoomed in views (street
level)... but it is very slow for zoom out views (city level)...  and I can
see the IO working very hard...

is there any way to see if MapServer/gdal is reading the pyramids correctly
?

 Yes, MapServer will take advantage of .rrd overviews for ESRI binary grids.
 You can delete them but in some cases performance will suffer.

If I use a big combined shapefile as input I am getting class 36311 coloured as

[mapserver-users] Shptree fails with biggish shapefile

2010-10-20 Thread Rahkonen Jukka
Hi,
 
I have been trying to create an index with shptree for a rather big
shapefile.  The size of the .shp part is about 1800 KB.  Shptree seems
to run OK, it does not throw any errors and Windows task manager shows a
steady growing memory usage.  Then shptree stops without warnings and
memory is freed.  Unfortunately no .qix file is written on the disk.  I
made a test by selecting a part of the big shapefile into a smaller one
and for that I could create .qix index normally.  Therefore I believe
that the data is OK and shptree fails because of the big shapefile size.
Have anyone else experienced the same and if this perhaps something
worth creating a new ticket on issue tracker?
I am still playing with GDAL 1.7.0dev, FWTools 2.4.2, released
2009/06/24.

What happens if you leave out the CONNECTIONTYPE when you use the tile 
index?

i.e.:

LAYER
  TILEINDEX wildwater_tindex.shp
  TILEITEM location  # not needed if the attribute with the data 
paths in your index is called location
  CLASSITEM luokka
  ...
  CLASS
 NAME wide_wildwater
 EXPRESSION 36311
 STYLE
   COLOR 255 0 0
   WIDTH 2
 END
  END

I'm not certain if leaving the connection type out will help, but it's 
not necessary assuming your data are all shapefiles.

You may also want to limit the depth. In the benchmarking exercise, we saw
shptree creating a qix file with excessive depth. Try limiting the depth to
8 or less.

I can hear you.  I had just updated that document.  What is wrong with 
it?  Can you file a ticket for the parts that are wrong?  Please assign

Hi,

Sorry, I can't tell exactly what is wrong. However, I cannot classify my layer 
with CLASSITEM/EXPRESSION if I am looking at a bunch of shapefiles through this 
tileindex definition:
LAYER
TYPE LINE
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR #commenting this line out makes classification to work
TILEINDEX wildwater_tindex.shp,0 
...

If I take out the CONNECTIONTYPE OGR line the classification works. However, I 
guess that it is only possible to leave out the line when working with 
shapefiles and not with other OGR formats. Do you think I should file a ticket 
and encourage someone to have a look why classification fails with the 
CONNECTIONTYPE line, and if it happens with most fresh Marserver version (I am 
still running 5.2.1)? It is probably too early to do anything for the 
documentation if we do not know what is the real issue.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Arabic text rendering

On Linux we are Arabic words rendered as individual characters and on
Windows the characters are joined correctly.

Same map file, shapefile and font on each.

We have tried both the mapserver and libs we have built from source and
the fgs binary install on Linux and both render individual characters.

Can anyone point me to what lib or config I need to change?

Thanks

[mapserver-users] The order of Classes in A Layer

2010-10-20 Thread Ibrahim Saricicek

Hi List,

I have several polygons in a postgis table. Some bigger polygons cover the
smaller ones.
How can I prevent bigger polygons drawn on smaller ones? On this case
smaller ones cant be seen only labels are drawn.

I don't know the problem is about drawing order but I think so.
As you can see on the screenshots, the small polygons can be seen but when I
zoom in some of them can't be drawn.
The images are purple because a bigger one covers all...

Thanks in advance..

And this is my class definition;
The bigger and smaller objects are in different visibility ranges and
different classes!!!

  CLASS
EXPRESSION ('[visibility_range]' = '1000-5000')

NAME GID_S

You could try putting an ORDER BY in your PostGIS layer definition to order it 
by area descending.  

David.

Try \' or ask ESRI :-)

It's not a Mapserver problem.

Agreed. Well, might want to save out the capabilities document and run
