Hi! I write a several map files, and most part of them are same. so i wonder if there a way make one map file include another map file just like the include header file in c/c++. If several map files include a same same part, then make this part alone, will ease the maintain work. do you think so? ===== Remote Scensing Satellite Ground Station Chinese Academy of Science _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

The message tells you that you actually compiled MapServer properly but you haven't fed it anything yet. To get yourself started, download the MapServer Demo at http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/dist/itasca3.5.tar.gz Untar it to your web server's document root directory and edit the demo_init.html to change the "map" and the :map_web..." hidden variable values to the correct paths in your server. You also need to check that the "program" variable has the path to your mapserv CGI program. Finally, make sure this line:
correctly points to your mapserver CGI program. You run the demo by opening the demo_init.html page on your browser: http:///itasca/demo_init.html I hope that works for you.

Check there if it really uses the system regex. Not by reading the configure options in the upper part of this page - they're just copied, not matter if they were good or bad - but scroll down till you find an item that tells you what regex php uses. - Usually, if you compile php without explicitly setting a install dir (--prefix=...), it installs in /usr/local. Maybe you still have some remnants of older php installations; php packages that come with linux distributions usually install in /usr. Mapserver uses a program that gets installed along with php, php-config, to get information about regex used. If there is both a php-config in /usr/bin and in /usr/local/bin, the old one in /usr/bin will probably be found first and get used, and give mapserver old info about the regex used. Make sure you remove all parts of older php installations before installing your own compiled php. Or configure it with --prefix=/usr, then it will overwrite your old version. Regards, Vincent Schut.

In this case it has something to do with the word 'LOCAL' on (or around) line 17 of the map file (sam.map in this case). sorry don't know much about maplab, that probably generated that mapfile? But in mapserver terminology, this is more or less what the error means. Regards, Vincent Schut.

In-Reply-To: References: <13858AA1A74F30419F319ACB66A9D1222BFC2E@mercator.topozone.com> Message-ID: <1057074936.319.5.camel@jeanjacques> Let's see. I will not answer to all posts seperately, but rather try to sum it all up in a big one. Please note that I did not ask to turn off your applications. More of that in the last few paragraphs. Also I did not mean to advertise that nobody should visit sites containing javascript anymore. I add this because I received a couple of outright hostile (and mostly 'anonymous'; I put that in quotes because you people should take more care of your emails' headers) emails stating that the 'stupid nonsense' i wrote would put websites out of business. -- First off I would like to ask a question. People install virus scanners on their desktop machines (virus scanners are a thing that can be argued about too, but for the sake of the following let's assume they make sense). They install them because they do not want a virus, which is code written by a completely untrusted (and untrustable) stranger, code that they cannot control, to be executed on their machine. Next thing they do is firing a web browser, go to a site and have javascript executed, which is code, written by a completely untrusted stranger. Code they cannot control and that someone says is necessary for a certain service. Code that might have changed since last night for whatever reason. Sounds weird to me. -- There was pointed out that javascript was designed to be a sandbox environment. This is not true. If you have a link to a design paper or something similar, I would like to read more about a inherent security model in javascript. But this will prove difficult, because there is none. Netscape, the inventors of JavaScript, developed a few models _afterwards_ (same origin policy, data tainting, signed script policy). Security put on top of a thing is no security. It has to be built in. I recommend reading Bruce Schneier's 'Secrets & Lies', among others, for more info on that problem. IIRC, Microsoft one day said something about 'sandbox' and javascript, but I think all of us are aware of MS's quality of security in their software implementations. By the way, contrary to what someone else said, Shockwave Flash does not require an ActiveX control. Or at least my linux version for mozilla does not need it. Oh, and it is correct that active scripting and javascript can be seen as different things; but I still have to find an IE setting that lets the user turn off only one of the two. -- I recommended asking your local cert for 'javascript'. The response was questioning that I did this myself, because a search would only yield 8 results. Please allow me to question this result in return. I go to www.cert.org, type 'javascript' in the search box and hit enter. I get 59 results. If you want I can post a screenshot somewhere. Bugtraq: 109 hits (securityfocus keeps on splitting up their lists and redesigning their publication policies, and cert.org is not exactly famous for a full disclosure policy, so the numbers possibly need to be adjusted in one direction or the other) -- Something that made me angry was the comment that 'driving a car' was a risk as well, as would be everyday life, and that life would only be enjoyable with a certain amount of risk involved. As much as I do agree with that sentence :), it does not have the slightest relation to our discussion. Apart from there being way too many car/computer comparisons on the net ;), it moves the 'opponent' in a debate (sorry, I cannot think of a better word at the moment) to a slightly silly level. But sticking to car-driving, let me point out that you have to acquire a license to be allowed to drive a car; that you need to take lessons to earn that license; that you have to follow a lot of security guidelines to be in line with your local traffic laws; and that you are in trouble explaining things to the insurance company in case something happens to you even though you should have known better in that very situation. Same goes for the people and companies who build and maintain streets and roads. There is no equivalent to this on the internet, so the car metaphor does not hold. And even if _you_ want to take a certain risk, others might not want to. See the 'choice' consensus that I offer in the last paragraph (and that I already offered in my original email). Security is a binary thing; it's either there, or it is not. Taking 'a bit of a risk' in a certain environment (a javascript mapserver application) and hoping that it won't harm me on another does not work. -- The BSI (german Department for IT Security, it defines security outlines for companies and private people and publishes them) posted the following press release on their website in September 1999: http://www.bsi.de/fachthem/sinet/java99.htm Sorry, it's in german. It says that there were numerous security problems with 'active content' in WWW sites (ActiveX, JavaScript, Java etc). They say that most problems are caused by implementation errors, and that secure implementation of active content seems to be outright impossible. They strongly recommend turning off active content. They also point out that security-aware people are consequently left out because of websites relying on javascript and so on, especially where its use is completely unnecessary. I think they make an important point here: The core problem is not that JavaScript is inherently too insecure, but that almost every browser security hole relies on it to be turned on. The press release has been updated in january 2002 with the note that all warnings are still valid. There is absolutely no indicator that the errors in implementation are not there anymore. -- I also want to point out that you assume - even though you are not explicitely stating it - that every security problem in javascript is public and can be fixed. This assumption is interesting. I would like to invite you to join us on this year's Chaos Communication Camp near Berlin (https://www.ccc.de/camp/) for the opportunity to meet people who might be able to talk to you about the more creative uses of active web browser content. The JavaScript security problems were even more grave with Netscape and IE versions up to versions 4.something, so the most notes and web pages you will find are up to, say, 1999. They are more sparse now, but they are still there. Please also note that the sheer annoyance that a JavaScript site can cause is not exactly a security hole but still a good reason not to enable it at all. I still have the possibility to open hundreds of new windows right in your face. Another problem caused is that javascript leads to developers' lazyiness. People parse form input using javascript, thinking that they have control over the submitted content that way, and then skip this important step on the server's side. But I can still type everything in my web browser myself, or connect via telnet, or whatever, and send abitrary input. Therefore advertising JavaScript as an all-purpose programming language is wrong, because it is by no means an interface that can control any input whatsoever, it's just a layer between me and the application on the webserver, a layer that I can move away at will. I admit that I am getting away from the possible harm for the user here, but I think it's an important point. -- Bottom line, again: I think my arguments are still valid. You may choose to _assume_ a lot of things and base your application development on. That is your choice. That your website needs javascript, or whatever active content you like. That is your choice. But my choice - and the choice of a lot of other people - is that javascript has to be turned off, let it be only because of the annoyance it causes. So the question is: why don't you want me to see that application? As much as I see that most places in which JavaScript is used it also is completely unnecessary, I do of course understand that our business of making maps is a highly visual one. I think I already said that. I do not ask you to optimize your sites for the users of 'links' and 'lynx', which are unix command line web browser. And I see that there is functionality that cannot be done in plain HTML, for example zoom boxes. I mentioned that too. I also know Neapoljs, for example, which is made by tydac, and I think that it is a very nice application, and I will continue to point people to it. But JavaScript should only be excuted in a trusted environment. The internet is _not_ a trusted or trustable environment. We are using free software here (MapServer), because we want to show the users and developers that they have the ability to choose. To transport that thought we have to let users make choices. This is an important one. I do not ask you to turn your sites of. I ask you to let the people choose between a javascript and a non-javascript version. If you cannot do that or do not want to do it, I ask you to tell them the reason. Just a few lines of explanation. And maybe add why you think that it's not at all harmful for them to have javascript turned on. hth, thorsten -- Links: http://www.pivx.com/larholm/unpatched/ http://www.pivx.com/larholm/unpatched/6may03notes.html (unpatched IE security holes) http://www.juengling-edv.de/meinungen/webseitengestaltung.htm (german site about web design.

You can control via the mapfile which layers are output as rasters and which ones are outpout as vectors to the Flash client. This specific application passes all layers as rasters, so the client has to request a new map from the server everytime as you noticed. It would be possible to make all layers vectors and then the client could be instructed to zoom into the vector data without going back to the server. However this could involve huge amounts of data to transfer and you would likely have to decide on an arbitrary threshold to use in generalizing the vectors that you pass to the client anyway. The best compromise is to use raster mode for backdrop layers, and vector mode for layers of points of interest for instance... so you get the interactivity of Flash on your vector features, and don't have to transfer megabytes of vectors to the client... something that the Flash client could probably not handle anyway.

If I remember correctly, you can embed GIF/JPG images inside a clip as you create the client app in the Flash IDE, but you cannot load a GIF/JPG image via a URL using Action Script. That's why the raster layer has to be embedded in a small clip by MapServer... just so that you can download the layer on the fly from your Flash app. Daniel -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Daniel Morissette morissette@dmsolutions.ca DM Solutions Group http://www.dmsolutions.ca/ ------------------------------------------------------------ From rgrant@nrcan.gc.ca Tue Jul 1 18:06:00 2003 From: rgrant@nrcan.gc.ca (Grant, Ryan) Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2003 13:06:00 -0400 Subject: [mapserver-users] SWF output demo site? Message-ID: <8AE17DD6AA4FD51191CD0002A551168101E66AD0@s5-van1-r1.ess.nrcan.gc.ca> As of Flash v6, you can dynamically load non-interlaced jpg's using ActionScript. In my testing, if I was only using raster layers I would stick with straight jpg's, as they tended to be slightly smaller than the raster swf's (OUTPUT_MOVIE=SINGLE). However, if you use the OUTPUT_MOVIE=MULTIPLE, you can create an application that can turn layers on and off without going back to the server. Plus, the vectors look a lot better, even at FULL_RESOLUTION=FALSE. And, if you set FULL_RESOLUTION=TRUE, it is possible to build an application that can zoom vector layers without going back to the server, but I haven't tested this yet..

Message-ID: Hi, what has happened to the Oracle Spatial error messages in 4.0 beta? In old versions when you supplied an invalid column in the DATA statement, you got an exception in your browser containing the Oracle SQL statement in the ORA error, which is quite useful. Now I only get the error message: msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'kwadranten' In the "old" documentation there is also something about this (see http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc36/mapfile-reference.html): For Oracle, use "shape FROM table" or "shape FROM (SELECT statement)" or even more complex Oracle compliant queries! Note that there are important performance impacts when using spatial subqueries however. Try using MapServer's FILTER whenever possible instead. You can also see the SQL submitted by forcing an error, for instance by submitting a DATA parameter you know won't work, using for example a bad column name.

The PHP MapScript docs explains how to get to them: --------8<-------- int numvalues (read-only) array values (read-only) The values array is an associative array with the attribute values for this shape. It is set only on shapes obtained from layer->getShape(). The key to the values in the array is the attribute name, e.g. $population = $shape->values["Population"]; -------->8-------- Note that you also have to make sure that you select the columns you're interested in in your PostGIS select statement.

It is just a high-quality raster which is being zoomed in on client-side, don't you think? It performs pretty well, but I heard they use tiled swf files which are ready on the server-side. Is a thing like this possible with mapserver? For instance can you prepare tiles in SWF which are served by mapserver? Or could it be created on the fly fast enough?

'Exercising tmerc at the boundaries': in latlon systems (which are essentially unprojected, though they are sometimes called latlon or geographic 'projections'), the north and south pole are single points. In projections like (transverse) mercator however, the north and south pole are either not there (they fall outside the valide projection area) or can be regarded as being stretched till these 'points' occupy the entire northern and southern boundary line of the projection of the entire earth. You might better understand this if you look at these projections as wrapping the earth in a vertical cilinder and projecting each point of the sphere of the earth onto its nearest point on the surface of the cilinder. There are only 2 points that are undefined in this, because they are similarly equal in distance to more than one point, to be specific an entire line: the most upper and lower points of the spere, or any latlon point that has a latitude of 90 or -90. Try cs2cs with any other value as lon, and 90 or -90 as lat, and it will give you the same non-output as 180, 90, because all these coordinates are the same point: north or south pole. I don't know how arcview does it, but it must be some workaround of the normal projection formula, cause that will not give you one single point for these coordinates. It will either give you a line, or a 'undefined' result. On Wednesday 02 July 2003 00:46, Benjamin Wragg wrote: > 179.99 and 89.99 work OK.

Two of the changes relate to your problem. The symbol is now part of a new style object, that is part of a class object. Color objects are no longer referenced by index because of 24 bit support, you now have an API to set the RGB color directly. This means that you would make the following: $co = ms_newClassObj($lo); $co->set("name", "mysym" ); $st = ms_newStyleObj($co); $st->set( "symbol", $mymap->getSymbolByName('star') ); $co->label->backgroundcolor->SetRGB( 255, 255, 255 ); The migration guide that explains these and other changes is at: http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MigrationGuide I recommend that you investigate the README in the mapscript/php3 directory for specific API details. I don't know how difficult back-porting the postgis query bug would be.

If you chose the default prefix for GDAL then it would be installed in /usr/local/lib. Is it possible that you also installed GDAL in /usr/lib?

In-Reply-To: <3F02C49C.9060506@magma.ca> References: <3F02C49C.9060506@magma.ca> Message-ID: <200307021455.40525.schut@sarvision.com> Mark, you can check which gdal is being linked at runtime by typing 'ldd php_mapscript.so' (in the dir where php_mapscript.so is). It will give you info on all dynamically linked libraries. Note that you have to run 'ldconfig' (as root) everytime you (re)install a library, like gdal. And that the dir where the library gets installed must be in the /etc/ld.so.conf file, or in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. And that the order in which dirs are in this file or var basically defines which one of two versions of a library file will be loaded if you have for example an old version still in /usr/lib and a newer in /usr/local/lib. If /usr/lib is first in the path row, it will be used, and vice versa. Self compiled libraries usually install in /usr/local/[lib|include|etc]; Distro packages like rpms usually get installed into /usr/[lib|include|...]. If you want to use your self compiled one, you'd better remove the preinstalled one if there was one. And then rerun ldconfig, to refresh the dynamic linker database/cache. Good luck, Vincent.

The quick answer is that you need to use a symbol and a size in your class. Here's an example: CLASS NAME "Major Highways" SYMBOL "circle" COLOR 255 0 0 SIZE 2 END Using a circle symbol with a size of 2 will result in a line two pixels wide. Using this approach you can make the lines any thickness you want. You can use any symbol you want, but a circle usually produces the best results. What happens is the symbol is used as a brush to 'paint' the line.

Mapserver uses libgd to read/render graphics, which doesn't do gif anymore unless you have a special patched version (for which you officially require a license). The demo should be updated.

MapClient is a browser interface for MapServer, exclusively based on JavaScript, without any HTML at all. I would not like to give the impression of living dangerously, and certainly not of inducing others to do so. There certainly are risks in using JavaScript in every browser. There is an excellent recent article in the leading German computer journal C'T ( http://www.heise.de/ct/browsercheck/ ). It's in German; perhaps someone from Germany on this list could translate or summarize it? It has many tests you can do with your browser to check for vulnerabilities, and some really are horrifying. However, if you have a modern browser with all recent updates, none of these vulnerablities will hurt you. My personal view is that the standard reference browser (Mozilla) is at the moment as safe as safe can be. Without any doubts security leaks will be discovered in the future, but the Mozilla group has an excellent security page (www.mozilla.org/security), and it combats the problem the only right way: by exposing its code and by publicizing every known leak. I'm not so sure about IE, but even there the security risks are minimal compared to mail-propagated security problems. I won't say you can ignore them, but if you are really that security conscious, you should shut off your mail too. Just use the Windows Update facility on a regular basis. IMO IE will always be less secure than Mozilla for two reasons: its code is closed, and the browser is too much integrated into the rest of the operating system. That being said, I have no qualms at all using it at the moment. AFAIK there are three fundamental risk areas: browsers reading and writing to local disks, browsers executing local programs, and browsers reading data from other concurrent browser windows. I'm not very afraid of the first two: as soon as someone uses such a leak it will be discovered and patched immediately. The third one is more insidious. Imagine doing your banking business in one browser window, and playing around with a malicious Javascript application in another. The second one should under no circumstance be allowed to read the contents of the first. Normally this is the case. However, aplications combining data from multiple servers, like WMS/WFS, are relatively new, so here I would expect problems in the future, especially in IE. Mozilla has a very fine grained security system, which is under active development, so I think it will keep up with this kind of security attacks. For myself, this means that I will develop the MapClient application on the basis of W3C standards and Mozilla as reference browser. It will be compatible with IE 5.5 and up, as long as it is one-server or one-site based (which covers the great majority of all current applications). Multi-server access will be added only in the Mozilla version. As I said, the three groupw of security leaks are potentially very serious, but I have not seen major accidents resulting from them in everyday practice. The most real security leaks are pages that try to register surfing behavior. This is certainly a breach of privacy and can be very annoying, especially from the resulting spam, but it is not a risk in the class of the three groups mentioned. Personally, I just ignore it. Mozilla has an excellent spam recognizing filter built into it, which can be trained on the actual spam you receive. After a few weeks of training it has a recogntion percentage of almost 100%. I can recommend it to everyone. I think the question is not so much whether the Internet is unsafe: it is. Neither is it whether you can live with it: millions of people can. You both are right. The question is: what can you do about it, and this depends on your situation. Speaking as a university person, almost nothing I do is really secret or indispensable. However, in the mapping business much has to be shielded, e.g. for financial or privacy reasons. Same goes for everything that has to do with money. There is no single security answer for all these situations, but every situation can be made as safe as you want. Concerning MapServer, for example, Steve Lime has recently added an excellent security mechanism, which makes it impossible to access the actual maps your application is based upon. However, you have to be aware of this mechanism and apply it. Same goes for PostgreSQL, which can be made very safe indeed, but you have to put some effort into it. Cryptography and certificates are very powerful tools too, once you have mastered them. I think the greatest error is trying to solve every possible problem in the same way. If parts of your applications are vulnerable, shield them. If you are just retrieving information, go ahead. No reason at all to turn off JavaScript, just don't mix both kinds of web access. The last thing we need is that all technological progress is halted because of shady behavior in the margins of the Internet.

This is read-only access to Oracle Spatial. If you want mapserver to create, modify and delete features in Oracle Spatial, you should ask the mailing list how far the WFS (web feature server) has been implemented. I think for the WFS mapserver will work with OGR and OGR can read and write Oracle Spatial data, so there is a slight chance some of these features will work, but am not sure if all of your actions will work. I do not have an answer to dynamic segmentation question, perhaps other people on the list are able to answer this question.

The class_index is used to classify the rectangle based on the classes defined for the layer. The text string is used to annotate the rectangle. Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE. In your case this would become something like $rectangle->draw( $wvimap, $wvilayer, $wviimg, 0, '' ); I guess you will have to experiment a bit with this. I have never used it, actually. Don't forget to save the image *after* this rectangle drawing, instead of before. Cheers, Vincent.

The CGI does that using the EMPTY web parameter. Yes, you could change the return status to MS_SUCCESS, but either way you'd have to examine the error code to see if no records were found (or worse the result set itself). It seems more intuitive to me to encourage that check by returning MS_FAILURE.

Am looking into it now to see what happens in msQueryByPoint. I agree that msQueryByPoint should not raise an error in the case of no records found by an otherwise proper query. Another thing we could do is to evade the error in MapScript's error handler like we are doing with the error that is raised when no shapefile tileindex is present. Maybe this is the best way for now, and push to change msQuery* behavior for MapServer 4.1. cheers, Sean On Wednesday, July 2, 2003, at 09:14 AM, Michael Schulz wrote: > Hi, > > i have a question concerning the new error handling code in python > mapscript.

It implements a new Python exception named 'MapServerNotFoundError' which will be raised when MapServer throws a MS_NOTFOUND error in queryByPoint(). I chose this name because 'NotFoundError' is too ambiguous and MS_NOTFOUNDError doesn't look like a Python exception. In the future, we could add exceptions like 'MapServerGDError' etc. To use it, you'll do try: queryByPoint() except MapServerNotFoundError: # No records found ... If it works, I'll commit it to CVS. I still think that msQueryByPoint shouldn't throw an error when there are no records, but that the application itself should check the returned record set. We'll work this out one way or the other before 4.1. cheers, Sean --Apple-Mail-4--591952750 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=pymodule.i Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: application/octet-stream; x-unix-mode=0644; name="pymodule.i" /****************************************************************************** * $Id: pymodule.i,v 1.3 2003/06/17 04:34:07 sean Exp $ * * Project: MapServer * Purpose: Python-specific enhancements to MapScript * Author: Sean Gillies, sgillies@frii.com * ****************************************************************************** * * Python-specific mapscript code has been moved into this * SWIG interface file to improve the readibility of the main * interface file.

The file is 4 Gb. I also have the same file in tiles of approximately 1 Gb. When the boundingbox is (units is meters): bbox=171760,449736,173257,451421 (So approximately 1500 x 1700 m) The image takes less than 1 second to be created and memory usage on the server of mapserv.exe is 6 Mb. bbox=171760,450736,172257,451421 (So approximately 500 x 700 m) The image takes more than 34 second to be created and memory usage on the server of mapserv.exe is more than 50 Mb. WITHOUT TILES: almost 100 Mb memory and more than 50 seconds to render image!! Can anybody help? Is this normal behaviour? --- WMS --- I have also noticed some minor problems with the WMS interface: -when I include an SRS in my WMS request for a raster layer, I get a projection error: msProcessProjection(): Projection library error. no system list, errno: 2 when I leave out the SRS I get the image. Although according to the WMS capabilities mapserver should be able to render my raster (which is in EPSG:28992, the same as the SRS I request) in EPSG:28992. Because OGC WMS layers inherit the SRS and boundingboxes from their parent layers, i.e. from the bounding box and SRS present in the mapfile. -when I request for capabilities without a version (1.1.0), IE does not recognize the content-type. The content-type is empty in the open/save dialog which comes to the screen. Opera recognizes the content-type, but the filename ends with exe which causes some "security" problems (filename: mapserv.exe). In IE the filename is just mapserv. Is there a way to overcome this?

I was able to convert my shapefiles into oracle spatial format using some tools on otn. Using those tools they insert NULL as the SRID. Will this cause grief? According to the WIKI you had to specify a SRID otherwise you got a mapserver error. Is this correct? Is there any way to see what query mapserver will be running? Like a log file or something of the sort. In the connection string, does service refer to the ip address?

Oracle itself has a tool to import shapefiles into Oracle Spatial. http://otn.oracle.com (you can register for free) The easiest to use is the built-in Oracle Spatial support. To use the support through OGR, you have to compile OGR against the Oracle client library.

I have a strange problem in using setFilter function in PHP-Mapscript 3.6. I am trying to build an interface that allow the user to set a filter for every layer of a Map: a simple html page help the user to build the filter expression, then this expression is saved in METADATA section of this layer in a entry called FILTER_EXPR: $oLayer->setMetaData("FILTER_EXPR", $szFiltExp); Then, before drawing the map, I loop through all the layers and check if the current layer have a filter; if so i retrive it: $szFiltExp1 = $oLayer->getMetaData("FILTER_EXPR"); With this variable, that represent my filter expression, I try to filter the layer: $oLayer->setFilter($szFiltExp1); (here var_dump($szFiltExp1) ; return string(19) "('[STATE]'='ITALY')" and this seems correct!) But this NEVER WORKS!!! The layer will be empty!!! And almost incredible... if I explicitly set the exactly same string via code.. WORKS!!! $szFiltExp2 = "('[STATE]'='ITALY')"; $oLayer->setFilter($szFiltExp2); I've tried almost everything: string function like eval, var_export, stripslashes,... other syntax: like $oLayer->setFilter("\"$szFiltExp1\""); single quote string like '(\'[STATE]\'=\'ITALY\')'; but nothing, nothing, nothing... Where is the problem: PHP or mapscript setFilter? And how really treat his parameter the setFilter function? Thanks in advance. Andrea Albano PS : sorry for my poor english!

Basically what I want to do is get a Mapscript application working with IIS without resorting to having to install PHP or perl and preferably without needing a java engine installed either. The Mapscript application will basically read from catalogue and present the maps. So - Is there a COM component around that can be used within ASP. the archives suggest a demand for, and some work being completed towards an ActiveX component bit this seems to have petered out. (What happened?) Does anybody have any compiled JAVA components to work on windows, with the precompiled Mapserver Binaries from the mapserver site ? Has anybody successfully compiled them using Borland C++ (Command Line)? Am I setting myself up for a fall suggesting that I will have a go at creating them. (I am not a C/C++ Programmer but have done a reasonable amount of programming in other languages). Any advice will be appreciated.

I tried your new pymodule.i and i can catch the error in the python shell, but if i try it in combination with zope-zmapserver it is not working. The zope process still gets killed. I thought along the same lines as you yesterday and changed pymodule.i according to your second suggestion: -- snip line 186 // Sidestep the annoying MS_IOERR raised by msSearchDiskTree() // in maptree.c when a layer's shapetree index can't be found if ((ms_error->code != MS_NOERR) && (ms_error->code != -1) && !((ms_error->code == MS_IOERR) && (strcmp(ms_error->routine, "msSearchDiskTree()") == 0)) && !((ms_error->code == MS_NOTFOUND) && (strcmp(ms_error->routine, "msQueryByPoint()") == 0))) This works, the error is not raised when no records are found and thus zope no longer gets killed.

My lack of knowledge of projections was really the problem as converting 90 or -90 lat is impossible with the Mercator projection. My past use of ArcView 8 convinced me it was possible but it seems ESRI have some "idiot protection" in their projection engine which must alter the lat value if it's to great.

'Exercising tmerc at the boundaries': in latlon systems (which are essentially unprojected, though they are sometimes called latlon or geographic 'projections'), the north and south pole are single points. In projections like (transverse) mercator however, the north and south pole are either not there (they fall outside the valide projection area) or can be regarded as being stretched till these 'points' occupy the entire northern and southern boundary line of the projection of the entire earth. You might better understand this if you look at these projections as wrapping the earth in a vertical cilinder and projecting each point of the sphere of the earth onto its nearest point on the surface of the cilinder. There are only 2 points that are undefined in this, because they are similarly equal in distance to more than one point, to be specific an entire line: the most upper and lower points of the spere, or any latlon point that has a latitude of 90 or -90. Try cs2cs with any other value as lon, and 90 or -90 as lat, and it will give you the same non-output as 180, 90, because all these coordinates are the same point: north or south pole. I don't know how arcview does it, but it must be some workaround of the normal projection formula, cause that will not give you one single point for these coordinates. It will either give you a line, or a 'undefined' result. On Wednesday 02 July 2003 00:46, Benjamin Wragg wrote: > 179.99 and 89.99 work OK.

My problem is that most of the documentation and examples are for PHP MapScript. Having only a list of constructors/methods etc for each object type is helpful to a point, but this doesn't tell me how I should be putting them together to get something to actually work! I've been trying to convert the PHP MapScript by Example HOWTO into perl, using Steve Lime's mapquakes.pl as a guide. My first problem is that perl mapscript doesn't seem to have a direct equivalent of the saveWebImage method. Is this correct? In the absence of such a method, I've been trying to use the saveImage method, but here I seem to be running into problems. If you look at the way I've called the method (see code below), then maybe you could suggest what I'm doing wrong. In the first case (ie. using mapscript::msSaveImage(...)), I get the error message "Type error in argument 1 of msSaveImage. Expected _p_gdImagePtr..." when I run the program at the command line. In the second case, using $image- >saveImage(..), I get the following usage message "Usage: imageObj_saveImage (self,filename,type,transparent,interlace,quality);". This has confused me because this isn't the argument list given in the documentation. If anyone has some simple, step by step examples of how to build up applications using Perl MapScript I'd be really interested in having a look. Many thanks, Ali #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w # #playing around with mapscript # #use mapscript; use CGI qw(:standard); use mapscript; $cgi = new CGI; $map_file = "/usr/local/apache/local-bin/s9646183/mapscript/quakes.map"; $image_path = "/usr/local/apache/htdocs/tmp/"; $image_url = "/tmp/"; $image_id = $$ . time() .

When I type in the WMS request, I get the map and when I build a workaround by dyn layers via transparent image above the mapserver image all works fine. It works fine, because the browsers settings refer to the proxy, but the cgi does not, I think. My sys admin told me, he can recognize, that the mapserver cgi tries a direct connection to the WMS client. This is, out of security reasons, not allowed for us.

The Mapscript application will >basically read from catalogue and present the maps. > >So - >Is there a COM component around that can be used within ASP. the archives >suggest a demand for, and some work being completed towards an ActiveX >component bit this seems to have petered out. (What happened?) I asked this question a couple of years ago. My hunch is that everyone who has gone done this path has come to the conclusion that PHP and/or Perl (afaik, the Perl version of MapScript still doesn't work on Windows) work so darn well that trying to support VBScript/ASP just isn't worth the effort. I'm not an ASP person, but I work with a lot of ASP people. I've been running PHP/MapScript on IIS living in peaceful coexistance w/ ASP applications for a couple years now... IMHO, PHP is so far superior to ASP as to be, well, I'm not sure of the best adjective. That said, if you REALLY want to use ASP, search the archives for a note from Ed McNierny on this subject. There are some pretty elegant work arounds that will allow you to use ASP (or PHP, or ColdFusion, or Perl) to hit the mapserver.exe, and pull back relevant information that can then be used by the scripting engine of your choice to make more dynamic pages. Also, as Steve Lime pointed out the other day, you can do a lot of REALLY cool stuff with the plain-jane cgi mapserver, especially when you throw all of the DHTML tools in the mix... so, make sure that you REALLY need mapscript. >Has anybody >successfully compiled them using Borland C++ (Command Line)? Am I setting >myself up for a fall suggesting that I will have a go at creating them. (I >am not a C/C++ Programmer but have done a reasonable amount of >programming in other languages). Not sure about this, but, as far as compiling the other stuff on Windows goes, the $100 (or so) you'd spend on VC++ is worth your time. Almost all of the libraries that are out there have vc++ makefiles, but NOT Borland makefiles. ASFAIK, they are NOT interchangeable. So, you could end up re-creating Borland makefiles for every library you need... I'm sure everyone would appreciate your efforts in doing that, but I'd imagine you'd spend a LOT of time doing it.

I changed the MS_MAXLAYERS define from 100 to 500 in map.h I then did a ./configure --with-gd --with-proj --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config -- with-ogr which seemed to work then I did a make which also seems to work If I understand correctly, it would now have made the mapserv executable file in the current directory with the source, and it seems to be doing this as the mapserv file gets the current date and time. The problem is that when I compare the file to the previously built executabe, they are byte identical. Also it does not seem to be accepting more layers. So have I changed the value in the right place, am I compiling it correctly ? I also have copied the new exe to the cgi-bin where I call it from, but it does not really matter, because as I said, they seem to be byte identical. You have any ideas as to what I may be doing wrong ? The main issue is it still has the too many layer error.

Niklas, I have tried this with MapServer 4 and no problems. Note that you don't normally need to quote the name passed to NAME or IMAGETYPE, but you can.

Niklas,

I have tried this with MapServer 4 and = no=20 problems.  Note that you don't
normally need to quote the name = passed to=20 NAME or IMAGETYPE, but you can.

Is it possible you are using a = 3.6 based=20 MapServer, not MapServer 4 = (previously
3.7)?


Hi!
You are right, i am using = 3.6.6.
I take it it wont work under 3.6.6=20 then?

Message-ID: <13858AA1A74F30419F319ACB66A9D1222BFC87@mercator.topozone.com> Dean - The primary issue with a COM object interfacing to the MapScript libraries is the issue of multithreading support, which IIS requires. The issue of thread safety is well-known and a lot of folks have been putting a lot of effort into it. Once we've got a good multithreaded base, a VBScript-compatible COM wrapper is a pretty simple task; until then, I (at least) have concluded it's not worth the trouble. As Chip says, however, it's very easy to write VBScript ASP code that programmatically builds MapServer CGI calls. With that you can do really quite a lot (but not everything) that a MapScript interface does. The primary value of a multithreaded COM server is the ability to have a single module serving multiple clients, rather than launching a new CGI for each one (although the cost of doing that is often overstated). - Ed Ed McNierney President and Chief Mapmaker TopoZone.com / Maps a la carte, Inc. 73 Princeton Street, Suite 305 North Chelmsford, MA 01863 ed@topozone.com (978) 251-4242 -----Original Message----- From: Chip Hankley [mailto:Chip.Hankley@rmtinc.com] Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2003 9:51 AM To: dtaylor@karjeni.com.au; mapserver-users@lists.gis.umn.edu Subject: Re: [Mapserver-users] ActiveX IIS and Mapscript.

(What happened?) I asked this question a couple of years ago. My hunch is that everyone who has gone done this path has come to the conclusion that PHP and/or Perl (afaik, the Perl version of MapScript still doesn't work on Windows) work so darn well that trying to support VBScript/ASP just isn't worth the effort. I'm not an ASP person, but I work with a lot of ASP people. I've been running PHP/MapScript on IIS living in peaceful coexistance w/ ASP applications for a couple years now... IMHO, PHP is so far superior to ASP as to be, well, I'm not sure of the best adjective. That said, if you REALLY want to use ASP, search the archives for a note from Ed McNierny on this subject. There are some pretty elegant work arounds that will allow you to use ASP (or PHP, or ColdFusion, or Perl) to hit the mapserver.exe, and pull back relevant information that can then be used by the scripting engine of your choice to make more dynamic pages. Also, as Steve Lime pointed out the other day, you can do a lot of REALLY cool stuff with the plain-jane cgi mapserver, especially when you throw all of the DHTML tools in the mix... so, make sure that you REALLY need mapscript. >Has anybody >successfully compiled them using Borland C++ (Command Line)? Am I setting >myself up for a fall suggesting that I will have a go at creating them. (I >am not a C/C++ Programmer but have done a reasonable amount of >programming in other languages). Not sure about this, but, as far as compiling the other stuff on Windows goes, the $100 (or so) you'd spend on VC++ is worth your time. Almost all of the libraries that are out there have vc++ makefiles, but NOT Borland makefiles. ASFAIK, they are NOT interchangeable. So, you could end up re-creating Borland makefiles for every library you need... I'm sure everyone would appreciate your efforts in doing that, but I'd imagine you'd spend a LOT of time doing it.

Also true 24bit support isn't available in 3.6.x. However, you should be able to select an IMAGETYPE of JPEG, and set the quality via the QUALITY keyword in 3.6.x. I believe the image is still rendered with an 8bit palette, and then before writing to the JPEG file is expanded to 24bit RGB. This is not ideal, but may be sufficient for your purposes.

You can do this with Oracle Spatial. If your geometries are valid, mapserver should be able to draw them. Validate syntax is in the Oracle Spatial manual from Oracle. About the logging of Oracle queries, I think it disappeared in the last version. In the old versions when you got an error you got the complete Oracle statement in the error messages. I think it is quite important for debugging purposes that this will get restored the way it used to be. Hopefully some of the developers have time to do this, but ofcourse now they are working very hard on the release of 4.0.

Oracle itself has a tool to import shapefiles into Oracle Spatial. http://otn.oracle.com (you can register for free) The easiest to use is the built-in Oracle Spatial support. To use the support through OGR, you have to compile OGR against the Oracle client library.

I need to know if each field is a string (or varchar...) or an integer, or a date. I know i can use something like this : $fieldValue = $myShapeObj->values[$fieldName]; if (is_string($fieldValue)) {...} if (is_int($fieldValue)) {...} But doing this way, I won't find if the field is a date (I think is_string will return true with a date) Maybe there's a solution with a layer object... I don't know... I didn't find any infos in mapscript reference. Any ideas ???

The problem is a little more complicated in that the coordinate space goes from 0 degrees at Greenwich to plus/minus 180 as you travel east or west so the space to the right of Japan is > 180 E which is not the same as < -180 West! OK well is it the same space the the math is not the same and all the code would have to do tests and transforms to normalize the data to the display box or alternatively one would have to recognize the the image space is really two separate images that would both need to be rendered on to part of the image, one for that which is > 180 E and the other that is < -180 W. This could also get more complicated if the user kept pan right forever so you would have to decide when to renormalize miny maxy values as you wrap around the 360 degrees mark. Then again there may be an easier way that I haven't thought about. -Steve W.

I was requesting an image on the verge/margin of the pixel size of the ECW file (1.5 m). If I adjust my boundingbox just a little bit I am on the fast side of the medal again. I saw some postings on the mailing list from a year ago that mapserver then returned a black image when requesting an image with pixels smaller than the ECW pixel size. Question: how can I prevent users from requesting an image through WMS in which the pixel size is smaller than the pixel size of the original image? And is it a good idea to have this situation in mapserver instead of the black image when you get big performance issues instead? image and bbox info: x: 120630.915462629 - 121965.084537371 = +-1335 m y: 487143.164317804 - 487670.835682196 = +-527 m w: 890 pixels h: 352 pixels pixel size 1.5 m.

I wrote a small Program using PythonMapscript. I'm calculating the following to get the Map-Coordinates from the Click-Coordinates (where clickX and clickY come as img.x and img.y from a HTML-form, Extend is the [mapext]): def _click2map(self,clickX, clickY, Extend): '''Uebersetze Klick-Koordinaten in Kartenkoordinaten''' Extend = Extend.split(" ") cx = (float(Extend[2])-float(Extend[0]))/(self.mymap.width-1) cy = (float(Extend[3])-float(Extend[1]))/(self.mymap.height-1) xMap = float(currentExtend[0])+cx*clickX yMap = float(currentExtend[1])+cy*clickY return (xMap,yMap) I took the function from a PerlMapScript Example. But it doesn't work for me. The yMap is always wrong while the xMap is always right... Maybe this comes because I have a mistake in my function that calculates the Extend (mapext): def _newExtend(self, Extend, zoomdir=0, zoomsize=1): currentExtend = Extend.split(" ") if zoomdir == 0: zoom = 1 else: zoom = zoomsize * zoomdir if zoom < 0: zoom = 1.0/abs(zoom) cx = self.mapXY[0] cy = self.mapXY[1] he = float(currentExtend[2])-float(currentExtend[0]) wi = float(currentExtend[3])-float(currentExtend[1]) self.mymap.extent.maxx = cx + (he/zoom)/2 self.mymap.extent.minx = cx - (he/zoom)/2 self.mymap.extent.maxy = cy + (wi/zoom)/2 self.mymap.extent.miny = cy - (wi/zoom)/2 return 1 The imgext is calculated this way: def _imageExtend(self): '''Finde den tatsaechlich sichtbaren Extent heraus''' loleft = self._click2map(0,self.mymap.height,self.mapExtent) upright = self._click2map(self.mymap.width,0,self.mapExtent) Ext = str(loleft[0])+" "+str(loleft[1])+" "+str(upright[0])+" "+str(upright[1]) return Ext I hope, that there is anyone on the list, who can push me in the right direction.

Also, it looks like you are calculating cx and cy incorrectly. Here is an example of how this calculation is done in ZMapServer (http://zmapserver.sourceforge.net): extent = (mapobj.extent.minx, mapobj.extent.miny, mapobj.extent.maxx, mapobj.extent.maxy ) width = mapobj.width height = mapobj.height pxsize = (extent[2]-extent[0])/width pysize = (extent[3]-extent[1])/height point = {} point['x'] = extent[0] + pixel*pxsize point['y'] = extent[3] - line*pysize cheers, Sean -- Sean Gillies sgillies at frii dot com http://www.frii.com/~sgillies From lfilak@medinaco.org Tue Jul 8 16:01:41 2003 From: lfilak@medinaco.org (Lowell Filak) Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2003 11:01:41 -0400 Subject: [Mapserver-users] MapScript: map-Y coordinate is always wrong while map-X is right Message-ID: <200307081501.h68F1ZN26043@yogi.medinaco.net> By any chance does the Y result appear to be "mirrored" about the center of the extent/map? It may just be a matter of: yMap = float(currentExtend[1])-cy*clickY vs. yMap = float(currentExtend[1])+cy*clickY due to 0,0 on the image being top left and 0,0 in the extent being lower left.

It comes back really fast but with the exact same result, the following error message: msDrawMap(): Image handling error. Failed to draw layer named 'oilwells'. I downloaded this from the mapserver website. Here is some interesting stuff: I'm using PostgreSQL 7.3.3 and PostGIS 0.7.5 Both are fairly new, do you think there is a problem with this?
