01:03:32 lucadelu: hi everybody
01:04:36 lucadelu: i write a small software for create a web page with url, getCapabilities and getMap from a mapfile for wms/wfs
01:04:46 lucadelu: someone would test it?
04:36:57 beatpanic: hi, I'm trying to access to the mapserver.org website, with a little success ( long response time ). is it a problem of mine? thanks : )
04:37:27 beatpanic: long ( 5/6m if it succeed )
04:46:38 FrankW: beatpanic: I see the system is in distress, I'll see what I can do.
04:47:51 beatpanic: FrankW, ok, only wanted to make a 'heads up' if it was not my connection fault, thanks : )
04:48:15 FrankW: I appreciate the warning about problems.
04:57:15 tof_: hi all ! an error occurs when i make mapserver 5.6.1 under ubuntu 8.04 64bit : /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxslt ... ( no problem under 32bit version )
04:57:57 tof_: i've the same error with 5.4.2 mapserver version ...
04:58:12 beatpanic: tof_, no guru here, but do you have libxslt in 64 bit form?
04:58:27 tof_: checking ...
04:59:03 beatpanic: tof_, dpkg -l|grep libxslt
04:59:58 tof_: return -> ii libxslt1.1 1.1.22-1ubuntu1.2 XSLT processing library - runtime library
05:00:22 aboudreault: apt-get install libxslt1-dev
05:00:34 beatpanic: aboudreault, exactly what I was writing : )
05:00:46 aboudreault: : )
05:00:47 beatpanic: faster!
05:00:55 aboudreault: gtg, bbl
05:02:35 tof_: ok no more error with -lxslt but new error with -lpam :-(
05:03:15 beatpanic: tof_, then search the dev package of pam
05:03:29 beatpanic: tof_, the main 'line' is to make apt-cache search libpam|grep dev
05:03:43 beatpanic: tof_, or apt-cache search libwhatever|grep dev
05:04:22 beatpanic: tof_, or, if 8.04 has mapserver in their package repository
05:04:40 beatpanic: tof_, also an old version try ( from root ) apt-get build-dep mapserver
05:05:05 tof_: ok i'll try ! thx a lot !
05:05:12 beatpanic: tof_, it should install all the dependencies automatically
05:05:26 beatpanic: tof_, no problem
09:54:48 jhvdv: Hi all. I would like to show overlapping labels as "callouts" in an image ( not interactively ). What are my options?
12:16:12 aboudreault: jhvdv: FORCE TRUE ?
12:16:41 aboudreault: not sure if there is other option than force.
12:17:17 jhvdv: aboudreault: The problem is that not all feature's labelitem's are readable then.
12:25:08 jmckenna: i may not understand your issue, but have you tried the background* parameters from http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/label.html ?
12:25:10 sigabrt: Title: LABEL MapServer 5.4.2 documentation ( at www.mapserver.org )
12:28:02 hobu: jmckenna: is there a holdup to switching over the documentation to 5.6?
12:32:49 jmckenna: hobu: I am not sure if Alan has applied the new changes to trunk ( for defaulting to the /en/ version if translated doc does not exist
12:33:04 jmckenna: aboudreault: ?
12:35:21 aboudreault: yes, but I don't think gislars has began the cleanup in the "de" section
12:35:53 jmckenna: hmm
12:35:56 gislars: right
12:36:16 gislars: I can do this tomorrow
12:36:22 jmckenna: k thanks
12:36:33 gislars: just remove every untranslated file?
12:36:58 jmckenna: yes
12:37:07 aboudreault: yep, gislars ping me before beginning, we'll do a simple test with 1 file
12:38:07 aboudreault: jmckenna: Is the mapserver 5.6 doc branch exists ?
12:38:13 gislars: ok
12:38:46 jmckenna: i have not branched 5.6, will check now
12:39:38 aboudreault: Ok, just let me know when it is ready to be branched ( don't know if there are still tickets for 5.6 to be done ) and I'll set it on the server
12:40:09 aboudreault: I mean, the website, not the svn stuff.
12:43:36 hobu: yes, I was asking because 5.6 hadn't been branched yet.
13:14:15 ted_s: hi guys ...I need a hint on templating .... I am pointing a GetFeatureInfo request at a query layer that returns multiple rows .. To do this I use the "new" format templating correct? e.g. [resultset layer='somelayer'] [feature] etc
13:14:43 ted_s: And call it by using OUTPUTFORMAT?
