[Cartoweb-users] MapServer 5

[Milo van der Linden]

No need to use packages. I got some instruction on how to compile from
source. It is a bit more work but on a clean debian it will work ok.

Here is the part that can be of interest to you. The total instruction
will be posted on the mapserver website or within OSGeo once I reached
what I want: a stable fastcgi mapserver running with the cherokee webserver.


== GDAL/ORG ==
$ wget http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/gdal-1.5.1.tar.gz
$ tar -xvzf gdal-1.5.1.tar.gz
$ cd gdal-1.5.1
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

== PROJ ==
$ wget http://download.osgeo.org/proj/proj-4.6.0.tar.gz
$ tar -xvzf proj-4.6.0.tar.gz
$ cd proj-4.6.0
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

= AGG =
$ wget http://www.antigrain.com/agg-2.5.tar.gz
$ tar -xvzf agg-2.5.tar.gz
$ cd agg-2.5
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install


== Mapserver==

Dependencies:
$ apt-get install g++ proj libgeos-dev libgdal1-1.3.2-dev libgd2-dev
libcurl3-dev libfcgi-dev
$ cd ~
$ cd temp
$ wget http://download.osgeo.org/mapserver/mapserver-5.0.3.tar.gz
$ tar -xvzf mapserver-5.0.3.tar.gz
$ cd mapserver-5.0.3
$ ./configure --with-ogr \
	--with-gdal \
	--with-proj \
	--with-geos \
	--with-fastcgi \
	--with-tiff \
	--with-wfs \
	--with-agg=/directory_where_agg_is \
	--with-freetype | more
(|more is used to read the messages during configure to see if all libs
are in place)

$ make
$ make install

Are there any reasons to wait for an update to version 5.0? On packages.debian.org MapServer packages 5.0.x are in state testing or unstable. This might be a good reason to wait for an update.
