RE: [mapserver-users] .map file wont display in Open Layers

2009-07-15 Thread Paul Curran


Thanks for your reply.

 

 

 

I have set up the IMAGEPATH and IMAGE URL as you have suggested and i can now 
view the outline of my map however it is in red. As you suggested is is 
probably my projection which i causing this. Any ideas what the correct 
projection setting might be?

 

Thanks again

 

Paul

 Paul,
 
 You may need to define your output projection instead of using AUTO (I 
 didn't know mapserver would tolerate that in the MAP section!).
 
 
 And IMAGEPATH is the file-system path to a folder writable by mapserver. 
 Here's 
 an example using standard ms4w:
 
 IMAGEPATH '\ms4w\tmp\ms_tmp\'
 
 with IMAGEURL being its web-based equivalent (the same location on disk but 
 access via your web server):
 
 IMAGEURL '\ms_tmp\'
 
 since ms_tmp is set as an alias in Apache's httd.conf:
 
 Alias /ms_tmp/ C:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp/
 
 
 Best Regards,
 Brent Fraser

Paul,

  The PROJECTION in the MAP portion refers to your desired output map 
projection.  It's whatever you want it to be.  The EXTENT values (and UNITS) 
must be relevant for your chosen projection.
