[maplab-users] how to stop maplab querying raster layers[Scanned for Viruses and Spam]

Hi Zak,
 
Thanks for your advice. Unfortunately I am still having the same problem. I checked the map file in a text editor, and only the vector layers have any kind of template attached, with the exception of the legend object (and I've even tried getting rid of that). I'm getting the problem with MapBrowser rather than the preview in MapEdit (which I can't get to work for other reasons). Is it possible that MapBrowser is also automatically adding the Template setting to Layers in the loaded map file, and how could I check this?
 
Thanks again
 
Jo

Joanne,

Ordinarily, LAYERS that contain no TEMPLATE keyword will not be
queried. You may need to edit the mapfile in a text editor to remove
these because mapedit may still retain them even if they are empty in
the LAYER form. Note that CLASSes within LAYERS may also have a
TEMPLATE which would make the entire layer subject to queries.

Also, while gmapfactory will respect the TEMPLATE settings, the preview
inside mapedit may not (i.e. it might add the TEMPLATE setting to all
layers in the loaded mapfile to allow queries in the preview).

including all of the rasters. If I have all of the rasters on, this
process takes so long that my php session actually times out! I don't
think I have a global template set anywhere in my map file, just in the
two vector layers, so why is maplab trying to query every layer and how
can I stop it?
