[mapserver-users] How to use/offer multiple projections in mapfile for WMS
Hi there, I'd like to offer multiple projections for my WMS layers. But it doesn't work the way I want. The EPSG:4326 works well. But when I change it to, for example, EPSG: 3395, I get an empty image (the legend shows). I have to define the projection at various places - already a bit confusing for me. And I have a projection in the SQL query: …. USING srid= 4326. Tried to replace that one too, but didn't change anything. Thanks for any suggestions!

Re: [mapserver-users] How to deal with (visible) CONNECTION information in .MAP file for WMS purposes
Thanks for all the valuable help!
If I place the .MAP file somewhere where only the system can read it, the
request looks a bit awkward: ….map=/home/include/mapfiles/my_map.map….
Would there a possibility to juste use …map=my_map… and have the path then get
added/understood by some internal configuration (mod_rewrite perhaps?)?
For the Wrapper, I don't really understand how that one would work. I have
multiple .MAP files. And they need to by WMS-compliant. If I understand
correctly, the URL would call the script: http://my_url.org/my_script, right?
H...
It says:
#!/bin/sh
MAPSERV=/path/to/my/mapserv
MS_MAPFILE=/path/to/my/mapfile.map exec ${MAPSERV}
Thanks for any help!

Hi Stefan,
you should hide your map file using a wrapper script on the server side.
See http://mapserver.org/cgi/wrapper.html
You can find some other methods at http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html

Either I would then need to create a very simple user for that case which

that.
What are your recommendations?

[mapserver-users] Passing an additional parameter via URL for WMS request - doesn't work anymore with new mapserver?
Hi there, I used to pass a parameter in a WMS request in order to specify which country should be highlighted. The MAPFILE would read that and, via an EXPRESSION, set all country but the selected one to a bit of opacity: DATA the_geom FROM (SELECT xxx FROM capitals WHERE capitals.id_country %id_country%) AS foo USING UNIQUE gid USING srid=4326 That doesn't work anymore after upgrading our machine. So, I am not 100% sure if this comes from mapserver, or if there is anything else involved.

Re: [mapserver-users] getShape failing; changes from mapserver 5.6 to 6.0
Thanks a lot, Steve.
However, I had tried this out before, but getResult($)? I think this is Perl,
no? In PHP this would be different?
Sorry for a dumb question…
Stefan
The query code underwent major changes between 5.6 and 6.0 and one casualty
was query processing like you're doing. On the bright side it's much more
straight forward now. The general steps for a layer-based query is now just:
$layer-queryByRect($map, $rect); # layer is left open after a query operation
for($i=0; $i$layer-getNumResults(); $i++) {
$shape = $layer-getShape($layer-getResult($)); # much simpler
# do something with the shape
}
I see the MapScript/Swig query docs are woefully out of date. I'll file a
ticket on that...

Hi there,
I am struggling with a few changes I need to go through in order to make my
code working now with mapserver 6.x. This one concerns the query part, when a
user clicks on the map and a window with some metadata is being displayed.
An error message occurred:
Catchable fatal error: Argument 1 passed to layerObj::getShape() must
be an instance of resultObj, integer given
When I changed the getShape command as indicated here [1], it says:
Fatal error: Call to a member function getShape() on a non-object
This is the code:
//Query the Map at the point clicked
if (!$imgbox)
@$a = $map - queryByPoint($click_pt, MS_MULTIPLE, -1);
else
$a = $map - queryByRect($click_rt);
if ($a == MS_SUCCESS)
{
$numResults = $Layer - getNumResults();
$oLayer = $map - getLayer($Layer - index);
// Open layer's table... take the list of fields to display
from
// the HEADERRESULT_FIELDS metadata in the layer object.
$oLayer - open();
$oRes = $oLayer - getResult(0);
//$oShape = $oLayer -
getShape($oRes-tileindex,$oRes-shapeindex);// before
$oShape = $layer - getShape($oLayer - getResult(0));
// now ??

$val;
if (($key META_DATA) AND ($key oid) AND ($key

$selFields[count($selFields)] = $key;
}
Not sure what I should put there...

Re: [mapserver-users] php_mapscript not being loaded
And the php -i it spitting out a long list, but no errors. I have actually all PHP, GD, …, Mapserver from Kyngchaos. So, one single source. But strange enough, every computer seems different, and I ran into a couple of challenges. I wonder if Apache is still using the system PHP? The PHP version at the top of phpinfo() should match what you installed (OS X 10.7 system PHP is 5.3.10, on 10.6 is 5.3.8). Also, if the Apache log doesn't have anything, look at Console.app to see if there are any system errors (maybe it can't load a needed library). Ha, good one. Thanks a lot! Indeed, the phpinfo shows 5.3.8, the php -i shows 5.3.10. I am on OS X 10.7, however. What does that mean? I have a mixture of 10.6 and 10.7 on my machine? I have my Snow Leopard still installed on a spearate drive in the machine; does Apache load the php from there? My PHP installer is supposed to switch the PHP, but sometimes it doesn't. Possibly because the apache config file was altered in a way to break my grep. System updates are not supposed to change the apache config, but it's a possibility. You can try running the script manually from the PHP disk image: sudo /Volumes/PHP\ 5/phpenable.sh cgi5 then sudo apachectl graceful Thanks so much. Although it didn't solve the problem, I checked again the php -i, and then the /usr/local/php5cgi/bin/php -i, as I recognized there were still two different versions. And suddenly saw that error message, mapserver which doesn't match the cairo framework. I guess that after the first installation a few weeks ago, I newly installed mapserver; but the version had changed meanwhile, and required another Cairo version too. Gosh, complicated this stuff. Now, it works. Thanks to everybody for the useful tips! Stef ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
Re: [mapserver-users] php_mapscript not being loaded
And the php -i it spitting out a long list, but no errors. The important point with that 'php -i' command is if it contains a 'mapscript' section; then compare those results through Apache (does a 'phpinfo.php' file through your browser display a section for 'mapscript') - these are the issues to check. Often, I'll be able to load mapscript through the commandline, but Apache cannot - and this will show you where you need to spend your time/effort. Ah, thanks for clarifying. But no, there are two map incidences, but they refer to Protocols (such as ftp, http…) ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

No need to set extension_dir, it defaults to the correct dir, which is not as you set it but includes the no-debug... subdir.

Whenever I get this stuck with loading mapscript, I try to: - execute the php executable directly (php -i) and look for an error message, sometimes it is at the bottom of that generated page - check the Apache error logs (error.log) I have seen this problem when users grab PHP from one location, and then download PHP MapScript from another location - that will make your hair go grey.

Hi there, is it possible to make mapserver directly detect the unique values in a field of the dbf table? I have twenty or more point and polygon shapefiles, each having a column with specific thematic data, such as the protected area category. But the content of these columns is different. So, defining these classes by hand would consume much time; and defining them dynamically via PHP SQL, then writing a bit of the mapfile code before launching the whole thing looks a little bit complicated for a relative basic request.

Re: [mapserver-users] How to tile a large TIF image?
Thanks a lot for these details. That should be added to the existing
documents!
But unfortunately I still get a Segmentation fault message...
Stef
Stefan,
I don't think you can specify 10'', you need something in pixels.
But the command is also probably not what you really need to do.
More likely, you should be doing the following:
gdal_translate -co TILED=YES gebco/bathymetry.tif gebco/
bathmetry_tiled.tif
This will create a single tif file that has an internal block size
of 256x256 - you can think of this as having broken your tif up into
256x256 tiles but keeps them all within the same file. This is
equivalent to breaking the tif up into individual files, creating a
shapefile that has rectangles for each individual files' extent, and
using that as a tile index in mapserver.
Next, you want to do this:
gdaladdo gebco/bathymetry.tif 2 4 6 8 16
this will pre-compute smaller versions of the tif image called
overviews at 1/2, 1/4 1/6 1/8 and 1/16 of the original size of the
tif - this makes it much more efficient for gdal to return exactly
what mapserver is asking for at any given scale. Depending on the
range of scales that you need to display your raster image at, you
can add more overview levels (or take some away).
With this two commands, you can make your rasters much more
efficient for mapserver and probably avoid the need to split them up
into many files.
It does make the file somewhat larger. If you are working with very
large files ( 4GB ) then you may run into some problems with tiff
and may need to investigate another format or a compressed format
like ECW or MrSID (both requiring commercial licenses I believe).
There are also some built in compression schemes for tiffs in gdal
which you can apply when running gdal_translate (see http://www.gdal.org/frmt_gtiff.html
for creation options), for instance:
gdal_translate -co TILED=YES -co COMPRESS=JPEG -co
JPEG_QUALITY=80 gebco/bathymetry.tif gebco/bathmetry_tiled.tif
would compress the tif using JPEG compression (lossy) set to 80%
(low compression, small loss).
Cheers
