Yes, it is necessary to reboot unfortunately. I had a similar thing a few weeks ago.

Best regards,

Paul,
We could definitely alter the cwc2.php script because we already have
been doing that, but I don't know how to set the CONFIG property here -
I tried the following but got an error. Is it even possible to set the
CONFIG in a mapfile via php/mapscript? 

$oApp->moMapSession->oMap->set('CONFIG','PROJ_LIB "C:/ms4w/proj/nad/"'
);

Fatal error: Property 'CONFIG' does not exist in this object. in
C:\ms4w\apps\chameleon\cwc2\htdocs\cesicwc2.php on line 716

Any other suggestions? I thought that maybe cwc2 used some sort of
default.map that is stored as a file and then alters that base mapfile.
That would be ideal because then we could just tweak the base mapfile.
But no - that doesn't seem to be what it does - it just writes out a
mapfile from scratch. 
Any other suggestions? 

We tried setting a PROJ_LIB system variable (We're on a Windows 2003
server) but that didn't seem to have any affect whatsoever. Is it
necessary to reboot the server after setting a system variable?

Obviously our final option is just putting the proj directory in c:, but
yuck - that's not where we want it.

Daniel,

I believe you might be able to put this into an apache SetEnv  
directive and get it to work, and you might be able to do the same  
for IIS (but I would have no clue how to do that!).  Unfortunately,  
as is, cwc2 builds a map object entirely using mapscript and doesn't  
provide the opportunity to do this.  It would probably be an easy  
hack to add it into your cwc2.php though.  You would probably want to  
do it around line 711 where the imageurl and imagepath is set.   
Ultimately, this would become a setting in cwc2.xml ...

Cheers

Paul
