[ka-Map-users] Almost there! Trying to get our data to be used(kind of works)

[Ed Cooley]

I don't think it has anything to do with the status.  I believe ka-map turns
on all layers in the map file, then overlays based on groups.

 

This is probably a problem in your .map file or you have permission
problems.

 

View the map with mapserver in browse mode and make sure that works at all
the zoom levels you have configured in ka-map.

Ok, I changed that and emptied the cache but it is still loading blank tiles
:(

Anything else I could possibly do?  I'm very anxious to get this to work.

Thanks for your help,
Clark

Clark,

  Try setting the layer status to DEFAULT instead of ON.

Hi,
I'm so close to getting this to work that it's painful!  Currently I have
two example pages working so I think everything is setup right.  THe only
issue I'm having is getting our local, internal information correctly
installed to be used.  We have a data sample that we have created using
ArcGIS along with a projection file that should have the same units as the
samples given.  Furthermore my extent information should be correct as well.
Using this script, things display correctly:

<?php
dl('php_mapscript.'.PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX );
$oMap = ms_newMapObj( 'slc_dtn.map' );
$oImg = $oMap->draw();
$szURL = $oImg->saveWebImage();
echo "<img src=$szURL>";
?>

This was given as an example in the article written by Tyler Mitchell.  Here
is a link:  http://dev.naiutah.com/KaMap/MapTest.php

So I'm thinking things are great.  However, this is the same map viewed in
kamap:  http://dev.naiutah.com/KaMap/  <http://dev.naiutah.com/KaMap/> 

As you can see the reference map is wierd.  which I just copied the map from
the output show above so I dont' know if that has t be a certain size.  But
what is clear is the main part is just displaying blank images.  In the
cache it's just a collection of blank images too so I don't know what's
wrong.  Furthermore I've tried to empty the cache many times.

For reference these are the files I'm using:
Aerial Image: http://dev.naiutah.com/KaMap/utah_data/slc_downtown2.tif
World file: http://dev.naiutah.com/KaMap/utah_data/slc_downtown2.tfw
Map File:

  END
  
  LAYER

    TYPE RASTER
    STATUS ON

  END

END

Not sure if this is overboard, even if I could know if it's a mapserver
issue so I can go to their IRC channel.  I'm just out of answers and have
looked at a lot of stuff but have not been successful in trouble shooting
this.

Thanks,
