[maplab-users] Starting tutorial next

[Paul Spencer]

Two things:

1. in the configuration file, make sure the path to the tmp_img_path 
ends with a /.  In fact, all paths in the config should probably end 
with a /.  (this limitation was addressed in a newer version of maplab).

2. did you change the imagetype in the configuration file or the map 
object?  You need to change it in the map object.  Even then, this may 
not work if you are using mapserver 3.7 dev because they changed the 
output types to use outputformat blocks and explicitly setting an output 
type through mapscript is deprecated (and ignored).  MapEdit does not 
yet recognize this limitation and will likely revert to GIF all the time.

Cheers,

Paul
