[mapserver-users] MAXSIZE on Windows
Dear all, I have set up MapServer for the first time on Windows using MS4W, and the installation itself went well. I then tried to set up a map file and retrieve the data with QGis. No matter what I always get an error like this: msWMSLoadGetMapParams(): WMS server error. Image size out of range, WIDTH and HEIGHT must be between 1 and 32736 pixels. I'm using map files that I use in Linux without needing to set MAXSIZE. On Windows not only it seems to be necessary, it seems also to require a large figure. Anyone knows what size should be set? Or is this error being caused by something else?

Re: [mapserver-users] WFS in MapServer?
I was nearly going mad. I couldn't understand why mapserver (=MS4W) does not understands MAXFEATURES parameter correctly. No matter MAXFEATURES specified by client or in map file and no matter what number specified for MAXFEATURES , mapserver always returns less features than MAXFEATURES (in response to GetFeature request). If i use MAXFEATURES without any filter, mapserver acts correctly and returned features exactly equals MAXFEATURES. But when i specify a filter, the problem shows up. If i don't use MAXFEATURES parameter, mapserver returns all records which satisfy the filter. If i use a MAXFEATURES in client request (wheter it's a direct GET request or a request made by OpenLayers), or if i use MAXFEATURES in Layer level, or if i use wfs_MAXFEATURES in Web object (in Map level or Layer level), the returned result by mapserver always is less than the number specified for MAXFEATURES (I'm sure that more features satisfy the filter). There is no error in debug file. I've also changed the data source (to another shapefile) but again no help. Then, i decided to test prevoius versions of MSW. I transfered my app from MS4W 3.0.6 (mapserver 6.0.2) to MS4W 3.0.1 (mapserver 5.6.6) and IT WORKED. It takes me a long time to understand that the problem goes back to windows version of mapserver, not my configurations. It sounds a bug for MS4W. I'm a novince and unaware of procedures for bug submitting. So, someone professional inform those guys (maybe Jeff Mckenna) at mapTools about it instead, please.

Re: [mapserver-users] MAXSIZE on Windows
Louis, I am guessing that QGIS is requesting an image that is too large. You might try enabling debugging to see the WMS request that QGIS is sending. I think that with a high debug level it should log the request. http://mapserver.org/optimization/debugging.html David. -Original Message- From: mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Luís de Sousa Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2013 9:40 AM To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: [mapserver-users] MAXSIZE on Windows Dear all, I have set up MapServer for the first time on Windows using MS4W, and the installation itself went well.

[mapserver-users] Connecting custom MAPSERVER using OSM droid help.
Hello, I'm trying to connect my android application to a mapserver installed in a Window OS. I know how to connect to Mapnik and render tiles from there and update my location using OSMDROID. Please help me to accomplish this task. It is really helpful if anybody can give me a sample code.

[mapserver-users] Fwd: Tools for automatically generate mapfiles
Hello all, I'm newbie in this mailing list and I'm interested to know what tools automatically generate mapfiles. So far, only I know two, gvSIG and Quantum GIS. anyone knows other? anyone knows some web site?

Re: [mapserver-users] MAXSIZE on Windows
Hi, First thing to do is really to check the GetMap request which is sent by QGis. Setting DEBUG on is good general suggestion, but all the WMS requests from the clients go always directly into Apache access log in \ms4w\Apache\logs\access.log and you can find them from there. Check the WIDTH and HEIGHT values from the failing request. I guess that the problem is in how QGis detects the extents of the WMS layer. I also guess that if you'll make a try with OpenJUMP you will not face the same error. -Jukka Rahkonen- Fawcett, David wrote: Louis, I am guessing that QGIS is requesting an image that is too large.

Re: [mapserver-users] Fwd: Tools for automatically generate mapfiles
Hi Luis, For your information we (Mapgears) have worked internally on a web-based GUI to edit and maintain mapfiles called ScribeUI. This tool allows editing mapfiles in three different syntax: - regular/raw mapfile syntax - basemaps generate_style.py syntax (https://github.com/mapserver/basemaps) - and Scribe syntax (http://www.mapgears.com/en/blog/archive/2013-03-12-scribe) Unfortunately it is still an internal tool and needs some work before we can publish it. However, a student has submitted a Google Summer of Code (GSoC) proposal to take this internal project, polish and finish it, test and package it and make it available as an open source component to the MapServer community. The GSoC proposals are currently being evaluated, and the final decision date is May 27. If the project is selected the you can expect some news on this list about the plans in early June. The goal is to make this a collaborative project in order to help make it more sustainable in the long run, so contributors such as you would be much welcome.

Re: [mapserver-users] Is there still a 2GB size limit on shapefiles?
Hi, I am not sure either if reading 2GB shapefiles works with the native shp reader on all platforms, but as the ticket says, you should be able to use OGR connection in the mapfile even with your current version. If you use OGR you can also split the shapefile into pieces and read them through the ogr tileindex system which may be faster sometimes. -Jukka Rahkonen- Andrea Peri wrote: If it don't work you should evalute the option to use spatialite.

Re: [mapserver-users] Is there still a 2GB size limit on shapefiles?
In general the shapefile spec is owned by ERSI and unless they change the spec you will have a problem. Last I knew, there are pointers/offsets inside the shapefile that are only 32bits wide per the spec. it is because of these that you are limited to 2GB. At some point I thought Frank W or someone was working on a version of shapelib that could support greater than 2GB, but only programs that used that version would be able to read/write these larger files. I have not heard anything on that front in a while so I don't know if that was just talk, or code ever materialized. -Steve W On 5/9/2013 12:32 AM, Rahkonen Jukka wrote: Hi, I am not sure either if reading 2GB shapefiles works with the native shp reader on all platforms, but as the ticket says, you should be able to use OGR connection in the mapfile even with your current version.

Very interesting to know this. Thank you all for the feedback. I did use the OGR connector and it worked fine, but I assumed the native reader was faster.
