Dear list,
I have created an application using map lab. Everything works great and I have been able to add some nice customizations.However, when I put postgis layers in the project things start getting unstable.First, in order to get a postgis layer, I had to rem out the $oLayer->close() statement in the function processQuery( layer ) found in the map_query.php (something I'm not comfortable with doing but it works). Everything works perfect except for the drawquery() function found in the drawmap.php, and it only fails part of the time. If the postgis layer is the only active layer the drawquery() will never fail unless the rect box does not intersect a feature in the layer. The same is true if there are two postgis layers, if the rect box does not intersect one layer's features the drawquery() fails. If there is a shapefile layer with a postgis layer this does not happen, it simply returns no results found for either layer if it was not intersected. However, if a rect box is made too small
 (in my case 1.5 degrees by 1.5 degrees) the drawquery fails. If at full extent the rect box is approximately 115x115 pixels for  a 450x450 pixel map, so the rect box is not tiny.In all this  I am always able to recieve the query results even when the drawquery() fails. I am getting absolutely no response on the mapserver list. My gut tells me it is a mapserver issue (not Maplab or postgis), but I thought maybe someone has successfully used postgis layers with mapsever that could give me some insight. 
 
Thanks ,
 
Damian

I think you will have to look for this to be addressed on the mapserver 
list, as you suggest. It's independent of maplab.

Is it possible that the order or your layers is playing a role in which 
items are queried?

Zak, 
 
I cannot thank you enough for atleast responding to this issue and giving me some lead. Like I mentioned before I have posted atleast 3 messages about this on both mapsever and postgis list with absolutely 0 response. For now I am going to change all vector layers to postgis layers and try to find out exactly where it is bombing out (refering to the issue of the rect box not intersecting a feature of just one of the layers causing the drawquery to fail). The incompatibility with postgis and shape file layers in regards to the drawquery() function is definately a mapserver issue. But, I think modifying some of the maplab generated code can produce an application that will support vector layers that are all postgis layers.
 
Please keep me posted if you discover anything on this. I will post any code if I am successful.
 
Thanks again,
 
Damian

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for the feedback on that dialogue.  I think that probably the 
least invasive solution would be to add scroolbars, and the capacity to 
resize, and make the dialogues a little bigger to accommodate larger text.

Lately I've been working on dialogue designs that stretch and contract 
to fit variable window sizes, but there is always a minimum required size...

I assume that your fonts were set to large because you have a high 
resolution set on your monitor.

oh, and most of the popup ads that slip through my popup suppression are 
all graphics, so they circumvent the problem altogether.

Yes, my screen resolution is set to 1600 x 1200.

I should have noted that the only problem I was having were with the
buttons at the bottom of the screen.  I tried added "scrollbars=yes" and it
seemed to only affter the directory listing portion.  I assumed I made the
change in the wrong spot.

You could always make the button panel one graphic too :)   Just kidding.

Unfortunately you're in a kind of black hole when you ask questions 
involving MapScript and PostGIS on the lists:

- The PostGIS guys don't seem to use MapScript much so they can help you 
only if you have a reproduceable test case that involves the mapserv CGI

- I and the other MapScript developers are not PostGIS experts (like the 
Refractions guys are for instance), so we tend to skip PostGIS related 
questions on the lists because they take too much time for us to answer.

I think you can help us help you by doing a little bit of extra work to 
submit simple reproduceable test case that either involve only the 
mapserv CGI, or involve only a few lines of MapScript.

For instance, I read somewhere in your message that you had to comment 
the $layer->close() call for PostGIS layer queries to work.  This looks 
very much like a bug and you've done a great job of isolating the 
problem... perhaps you could file this one in bugzilla to make sure 
someone addresses it when time permits.

Subject: [maplab-users] About the join object
Message-ID: <41163482064.20031202144455@ecn.cz>

Dear list-users,


I watched user-list archive for threads dealing with JOIN object (I
copy this message also also to those who discussed this topic),
because I tested to use JOIN with Mapserver4, MapLab4 with NO success.

My results are following:
map file:
     JOIN
        NAME "dbSites"
        TYPE SINGLE
        TABLE "c:/ms4w/apps/maplab20/tutorial/wwf_data/dbsites.dbf"
        FROM "LINK"
        TO "LINK"
      END
--------
 error message in MapServer 4

loadClass(): Unknown identifier. (JOIN):(156)
--------
 error message in MapLab 4:
 
Warning: [MapServer Error]: loadClass(): Parsing error near
(JOIN):(line 205) in
C:\ms4w\apps\maplab20\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php on line
208

Warning: Failed to open map file c:/ms4w/tmp/ms_tmp//3fcc6bd2aec50.map

208

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in
C:\ms4w\apps\maplab20\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php on line

--------

Could anybody inform me about current status of JOIN object
implementation or what I did wrong?

Thanks,

Radim Machu

Dear list-users,


I watched user-list archive for threads dealing with JOIN object (I
copy this message also also to those who discussed this topic),
because I tested to use JOIN with Mapserver4, MapLab4 with NO success.

My results are following:
map file:
     JOIN
        NAME "dbSites"
        TYPE SINGLE
        TABLE "c:/ms4w/apps/maplab20/tutorial/wwf_data/dbsites.dbf"
        FROM "LINK"
        TO "LINK"
      END
--------
 error message in MapServer 4

loadClass(): Unknown identifier. (JOIN):(156)
--------
 error message in MapLab 4:
 
Warning: [MapServer Error]: loadClass(): Parsing error near
(JOIN):(line 205) in
C:\ms4w\apps\maplab20\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php on line

208

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in
C:\ms4w\apps\maplab20\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php on line
231
--------

Could anybody inform me about current status of JOIN object
implementation or what I did wrong?

Thanks,

Radim Machu

[English is not my natural language...]

Hi,

Is-it possible to have "hatch" instead of a color on a
polygon layer ?

("hatch" is it the good translation of "hachure" ?)

How I do with MapLab (or without MapLab) ?

An example is welcome. thanks a lot.

regards.

Harato.

indeed you can.

if you select a symbol to use and a colour, then instead of filling the 
polygon with the colour, you get a pattern fill of that colour.  If you 
adjust the size you can have a bigger or smaller pattern.

SYMBOL 6
COLOR 0 0 255
SIZE 8

that will give you a polygon filled with a blue grid.

you can experiment with outline colour, and background colour for other 
effects too.

have fun.

In-Reply-To: <3FC368DA.4080501@dmsolutions.ca>
Message-ID: <002001c3b907$b3820c60$2441c180@nino>

Thanks Bill for tracking this down for us.  This quickie patch does help
fix part of the problem.  I've discovered a few more "features" related
to this which may or may not be intended behavior:

The following behavior relates only to projected maps (data are in
latlong and map is projected to aea). My unprojected maps have always
behaved well.

* TOLERANCE must be set in the mapfile for each LAYER you want to query.
The documentation suggests a default value for TOLERANCE, but I found if
it is not set in the mapfile, my point queries still return no data,
even with your quick-fix.

* If the user performs a point query (ie. $adMin and $adMax in
query.phtml are the exact same location), then the selected query does
NOT show up highlighted (yellow in my case) in the resultant map. The
query results window however, does show the correct table of returned
values from the query (thanks to your patch).

* If the user performs a very-small rectangle query (ie. $adMax-$adMin <
MIN_RECT), a point query is performed and the resultant map DOES show
highlighted query results. In other words, it works fine.

* Rectangle queries have always behaved normally...no matter how big or
small the selected rectangle.

* Unprojected maps have always behaved normally.

I'm not sure where to go from here on this one. It seems to me that
something is amiss in the executePointQuery() and/or executeRectQuery()
functions that is somehow related to projected space/coordinates. I can
get by with workarounds for now. Just thought you could use this extra
information that helps explain where the problem might really be.

Message-ID: <20031204113357.84001.qmail@web13609.mail.yahoo.com>

[English is not my natural language...]

Hi,

I've made many classes for a layer and I need to add
an expression in one of them. I know the name of the
field what I need but nothing appear for 1 class maybe
because of the value.

In the field Expression of the class (where nothing
appear), I put :

([NUMAFFICHA]=5')

I think my problem is the - ' - (quote) .

How I can do to use this value - 5' - ?

Must I need to change in my DBF/SHP/SHX, the value by
a real number ? (example 50)

thanks

regards
Harato

Hi,

This is really a mapserver question, since maplab just passes the 
values of expressions through to mapscript. You should be able to use 
the string (5'); you can try entering it as 5\' or "5'". If that 
doesn't work, ask on the mapserver-users list.

That mechanism for adding a layer requires you to add 'warehouse' 
mapfiles in your mapedit configuration file with layers within them; it 
is not set up in the distribution. For most purposes, you should be 
able to add an empty layer by selecting 'New Layer' from the 'Create 
New Object' pull-down list and then clicking the + button.

Is this error message appearing in the preview window or the main

Have any changes been made to the tutorial map before the preview is 
launched?

These errors appear in the preview window.  However, I am able to one
successful preview but if I try to view additional layers after or zoom in
I receive the previous.  Also no changes to the tutorial map have been
made before the preview.

Thanks.

It looks like mapserver is not finding the temporary map file saved 
when you make a preview. The most common reason for this is that the 
Image Path and Image URL parameters in the web object of your map do 
not point to the same location.

If your web server's root is /var/www/html/, then the image path could 
be /var/www/html/tmp/ and the image url would then be /tmp/. The image 
path has to be a web accessible directory.

Hi Stephen, Congratulations on being able to make the next step!  The
simplest scenario would be to duplicate your ms4w and maplab setups to this
external server - it depends what you mean by external and what kind of
access/permissions you have.  Do you have access to installing programs on
the web server?  I'm assuming you have an account with an ISP that you want
to use which usually is pretty limited.  That could be tricky and not very
profitable, others on the list will probably know better.

There are some mechanisms that would allow you, if possible, to have an
external web page calling on mapserver on another computer - if your
"local" computer is accessible via the internet, this may be the best way
to go.  But, granted, I'm not familiar with your setup.  Let us know some
more.

Can others confirm for us that if Stephen's ISP can support CGI, will that
be enough?  I assume also that he'll need to know whether the host O/S
platform is too.

Tyler

You are correct that I plan on using a ISP and I do not know what my
permissions are. I will check this morning.
My "local computer is not connected to the web on a full time basis, so
could not be used for a host.

Thanks for the reply

Assuming this is a gmapfactory application, the server would also need 
mapscript, which implies php is available.

Tyler

You are correct that I plan on using a ISP and I do not know what my
permissions are. I will check this morning.
My "local computer is not connected to the web on a full time basis, so
could not be used for a host.

Thanks for the reply

Steve

Hi Stephen, Congratulations on being able to make the next step!  The
simplest scenario would be to duplicate your ms4w and maplab setups to
this external server - it depends what you mean by external and what
kind of access/permissions you have.  Do you have access to installing
programs on the web server?  I'm assuming you have an account with an
ISP that you want to use which usually is pretty limited.  That could be
tricky and not very profitable, others on the list will probably know
better.

There are some mechanisms that would allow you, if possible, to have an
external web page calling on mapserver on another computer - if your
"local" computer is accessible via the internet, this may be the best
way to go.  But, granted, I'm not familiar with your setup.  Let us know
some more.

Subject: [maplab-users] PHP MapScript DLL QueryMap class?
Message-ID: <000501c3bdc1$2e3244d0$a3916181@mgltoshiba>

Hello all,

I'm just curious if there's any way to set parameters for the QUERYMAP in a
map object using the PHP MapScript DLL (I'm using the 4.1 version right
now).  Basically that's the only component I can't figure out how to set
when I dynamically create a map object without a mapfile.  My workaround is
to create a temporary mapfile that has nothing but an empty MAP and the
QUERYMAP properties, then create a map object in PHP from that file.  After
that, everything else works great.  

I see there are PHP MapScript constants defined for the QueryMap object
(i.e. the Querymap styles), but there is no way to change anything in the
querymap.  This is not a particularly huge deal, as I already have a
workaround in my case, but it might be a little more efficient if a class
was defined that provided access to those parameters from a PHP script.  Is
this something we might see in later builds...or is there an undocumented
class or function that can be used?

Thanks,
Mike

Subject: [maplab-users] .TAB files
Message-ID: <1D6EE6E7F017B2479C94CAC3903E5DE18C0DCC@KIRJATUVI.cc.et.ee>

Greetings,

I have a trouble with TAB-files in MapLab 2.1-rc3. I have a map-file
which uses 2 shapefiles and works fine. But when I am trying to add TAB
file connected to TIFF file, which covers small part of the big map,
browser MapBrowser window shows nothing, and there is no ROSA controls
in the window. I tryed to add TAB via MapLab interface, after that tryed
to add it manually using this sample :

LAYER
NAME "Builtup_Areas_tab"
TYPE POLYGON
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "data/tab/092b06_builtup_a.tab"
STATUS ON
CLASS
...
END
...
END

But there it doesn't work. I also tried to build the mapfile with only
one layer, which uses TAB but without any effect. During various
experiments with Extent, ROSA application starts (sometimes), but I
never saw my tiff image in MapBrowser or application window.
Please, give me some good advices.

Here is configuration of my mapfile and .tab file.

Unfortunately, you will have to modify Rosa to change this.

Can you confirm if this mapfile works in gmapfactory or the shp2img 
command line utility? If not, it may be better addressed on the 
mapserver-users list.

Actually, you can change the tool tips - I've already done this with a
viewer I have put together that has an option to select a set of pre-defined
languages.

See the info at
http://www.maptools.org/rosa/index.phtml?page=rosa_params.html and look at
the TB_BUT_?_HINT and LOADING_MSG parameters.  These allow you to change the
tips for the buttons as well as the loading message that appears while the
applet is accessing the image data.

As for changing the colour of the selection box, I don't see any options
currently available for that.

Good luck,
Mike

Yes you will need to recompile Rosa and the change of the color should 
be done inside the Rectobj.java file in class draw(). You will see the 
It uses a black color, so you can change it to you favorite color.

Hope it helps.

maplab 2.1 (newest off the dm solutions site)
php 4.3.3

I have gotten Canadian map (demo) to work. I get an error message that the 
symbol selection box is unavailable (paraphrase mine). I can select/browse 
the color box, but not the symbol selection box. Is there something I am 
doing wrong?

Also I notice that the zoom out button is activated with a click but the 
zoom in button is activated by clicking and drawing a box. Is that how it is 
intended.

Is there a more comprehensive users manual besides that which comes with the 
gmap zip? If not is there one in the works?

I thought that had been fixed, but I guess there is still a problem. 
Are you using 2.1RC3?

Yes.

There is a tutorial with the maplab distribution that has been updated 
for 2.1. A more complete user manuals is planned.

Message-ID: <1D6EE6E7F017B2479C94CAC3903E5DE18C0E4D@KIRJATUVI.cc.et.ee>

Yes, this mapfile works in gmapfactory. But if layer, which uses
TAB-file is on, gmfactory or browser window shows nothing. If this layer
is disabled, map works fine.
Btw, this question is allready addressed on the mapserver-users list,
and the answer is :

Hi,
As far as I know mapserver does not support georeference in mapinfo TAB
format. OGR (gdal) supports mapinfo vector files. You sould convert your
TAB to tfw file. See raster howto.
Bye
Zoltan Siki

Is it true, that TAB format is not supported ? 

Thanks in advice
Martin Kiuru.

Can you confirm if this mapfile works in gmapfactory or the shp2img 
command line utility? If not, it may be better addressed on the 
mapserver-users list.

Try setting an absolute path for your TAB file CONNECTION. OGR 
connections were *not* relative to SHAPEPATH in MapServer version 
3.6/4.0. This will be fixed in version 4.1.

You need to ensure that the values in the mapfile for image url and 
image temporary directory (in the web object) point to the same 
location. Can you verify this?

Hello from Poland !

      First of all I want to thank to all MapLab/MapServer developers, it's a great
tool.
     But I have a few problems with it :).
I am using shp files as maps. But I can't preview dbf file attributes when
I am using "Shape File Atributes Picker" from MapLab.
Event if I'm writing real attribute (without picking) into LabelItem
or for Filter or Join items they don't working. It looks like this version
of MapLab or MapServer don't see them.
Maybe I'm making some mistakes, which ???

Tyler

 Sorry to take so long in reply. I deal with two ISP's and spoke with
both last week. I do not have the rights to load Mapserver.  One of the
two has PHP support on the server.  I don't know if this useful by
itself. In addition, I was told about pghoster an ISP that may have
mapserver loaded and accessible for a small additional fee. Last week I
sent an inquiry to pghoster but with no reply. I will try again this
week.

My local computer is not accessible to the internet on a regular basis,
so not an option.

I am still exploring other options

Thanks for the assistance.

Hi Stephen, Congratulations on being able to make the next step!  The
simplest scenario would be to duplicate your ms4w and maplab setups to
this external server - it depends what you mean by external and what
kind of access/permissions you have.  Do you have access to installing
programs on the web server?  I'm assuming you have an account with an
ISP that you want to use which usually is pretty limited.  That could be
tricky and not very profitable, others on the list will probably know
better.

There are some mechanisms that would allow you, if possible, to have an
external web page calling on mapserver on another computer - if your
"local" computer is accessible via the internet, this may be the best
way to go.  But, granted, I'm not familiar with your setup.  Let us know
some more.

Warning: fopen() [function.fopen <http://www.php.net/function.fopen> ]:
php_hostconnect: connect failed in

I have checked my file permissions and they are okay (e.g. IUSR has write
permissions).

Can anyone help?

Many thanks,

Can you connect to other servers?

If so, you might want to check if allow_url_fopen is set to false in  
your php.ini file. What version of php are you using?

dear all,

i am trying to setup maplab and get it running for the first time.

i have installed

php 4.3.1
mapserver 3.6.6
maplab 2.1-rc3

on windows 2000 advanced server.

soon after installation when i checked for php mapscript installation by
running a test php file the output was as desired without any error message.

after this i tried to run mapedit, mapbrowser and gmapfactory.

when i open mapedit using http://localhost/maplab/htdocs/mapedit

i get few runtime errors like unterminated string constant.

when i try to open tutorial.map i am getting runtime error like "object
doesnot support this property or method.

when i open mapbrowser using
http://localhost/maplab/htdocs/ and then open tutorial.map i am getting the
following errors.

Warning: MapServer Error in msLoadMap(): (OUTPUTFORMAT):(138) in
C:\maplab\maplab-2.1-rc3\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php on line 221

Fatal error: Failed to open map file
C:/maplab/maplab-2.1-rc3/tutorial/tutorial.map in
C:\maplab\maplab-2.1-rc3\htdocs\common\wrapper\map_session.php on line 221

also when i open the gmapfactory i get errors like

Notice: Undefined variable: gszNewAppPathPath in

No Project Selected
Please use the toolbar to select a project and map file

Notice: Undefined index: gszMapName in
C:\maplab\maplab-2.1-rc3\htdocs\gmapfactory\no_proj.phtml on line 136

please give me your inputs, suggestions to setright the above errors.

thanks in advance.

Maplab 2.1 only works with Mapserver 4.0 and up. If you want to use 
Mapserver 3.6.6, you need Maplab 2.0, which is still available. As a 
convenience for upgrading users, Maplab 2.1 can convert a maplab 3.6.x  
map file to the 4.0 format.

Hi,

Mapserver can't write to that temp directory for some reason. Does 
c:\tmp\ms_tmp exist? Does your web server have write access there? Look 
at that directory and see if there are any image files there as a test.

Once that's working, you need to have the mapfile's imageurl and 
imagepath point to the same place on your server, one via a url and one 
via the file system. The tutorial.map file may not have this set up 
correctly for your system: you can edit it in a text editor to correct 
this.
