[maplab-users] MapSession_RW not working

[Matt Doggett]

If that's the case then the application (as delivered by DMSolutions) is
broke because that's exactly what I'm doing.  As best I can determine,
the problem is in the drawMainMap function and/or the
wrapper/drawmap.php script. I've even tried modifying the URL (in
drawMainMap) passed to the drawmap.php script to explicitly use the
temporary mapfile (e.g. drawmap.php?gszMapName=$tmpMAPFILE) but drawmap
will never render anything but the original .map file.

Any other suggestions?
