Thanks, that solves the problem. In fact this:<br><br>'\\\\mycoumputer\\myshare\\mypath'<br><br>appears to work as well as this:<br><br>'\\\\mycoumputer\myshare\mypath'<br><br>notice the double backslashes throughout the first path. Is there a section in the documentation regarding UNC paths? seems like it would be necessary at this point.<br>
<br>Thanks again,<br><font color="#888888"><br>Andrew</font><div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 15, 2011 at 10:42 AM, Brent Fraser <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bfraser@geoanalytic.com" target="_blank">bfraser@geoanalytic.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">I noticed that due to parsing changes in mapserver 6, I had to change<br>
IMAGEPATH 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\tmp\'<br>
to<br>
IMAGEPATH 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\tmp\\'<br>
<br>
Note the double backslash at the end. In the old string, likely the parser is interpreting the backslash as an "escape" character, including the quote in the string and looking for a close quote (and failing).<br>
<br>
Perhaps UNC paths would work if you used FOUR backslashes (so the parser will include two in the string):<br>
<br>
'\\\\mycoumputer\myshare\mypath'<br>

Not sure if I'm to provide feedback by answering this e-mail, I guess you'll<br>
let me know if not.<br>
<br>
In the meantime this version will fail to load a map file if it contains UNC<br>
paths. Switched all my paths to letter drives and it loads no problem.<br>
