Re: [mapserver-users] Copy mapserv.exe problem
Hi Robert, If you are using MS4W, you likely already followed the steps at https://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#apache-setenvif and added the SetEnvIf to the bottom of your local file /ms4w/Apache/conf/httpd.conf Don't forget to also restart Apache after this change, as Administrator (executing /ms4w/apache-restart.bat ) Another hint that I follow always on Windows is to make sure that your path to your mapfile contains no spaces (otherwise you will have grief sometimes, and turn your hair grey). Hope those hints help. -jeff -- Thank you for using MS4W.

Re: [mapserver-users] Copy mapserv.exe problem
Hi Stefan Is your mapserver on Windows? Once you copy mapserv.exe change its name to the name of your mapfile and then edit httpd.conf and set up Apache redirects for each one Eg. Suppose you had a mapfile map1.map and you copied mapserv.exe to map1.exe, then you could put the following line into httpd.conf: SetEnvIf Request_URI "/cgi-bin/map1?"

Re: [mapserver-users] Copy mapserv.exe problem
Stefan, If you have several URLs then you have to assign the map CGI variable based on the URL request, this is done in http.conf (Apache).
