01:52:02 wohnout: Hello, is it possible to restrict mapserver to use only wms version 1.1.1 as server?
03:55:15 tof_: hi all :- ) i've a error since mapserver 5.6.1 ( no error with 5.4.2 ) with map.zoomRectangle ( swig mapscript ) : java.lang.UnknownError: mapscript::mapObj::zoomRectangle( ): General error message. image rectangle maxy >= miny ... thx for ur help
03:55:57 tof_: is there anything to do for migrate application from 5.4.2 to 5.6.1 ?
04:19:16 tof_: hi all :- ) i've an error since mapserver 5.6.1 ( no error with 5.4.2 ) with map.zoomRectangle ( java mapscript ) : java.lang.UnknownError: mapscript::mapObj::zoomRectangle( ): General error message. image rectangle maxy >= miny ... is there anything to do for migrate application from 5.4.2 to 5.6.1 ? thx for your help !
04:26:36 aboudreault: emm
04:26:46 aboudreault: tof_: I fixed this in trunk 4 mounths ago
04:27:04 aboudreault: Are you sure your java binding has been recompiled ?
04:29:31 aboudreault: tof_: though the error message is still wrong, and basicly, that means that your miny is >= to the maxy, not the inverse
04:30:00 aboudreault: I'm going to fix this error message. But your rectangle is probably not correct.
04:39:01 aboudreault: gtg, bbl in a hour or so
04:45:18 nhv: wohnut: the only way I know of is to use a proxy to insure that in the REQUEST that VERSION=1.1.1
05:23:27 wohnout: nhv: i discovered problem with VERSION=1.3.0 so it is now working
05:27:07 tof_: aboudreault: ok i am going to check my jav binding ;- ) thx
06:16:11 tof_: aboudreault: i've just tested with mapscript.jar and mapscript.dll ( ms4w 5.6.1 ) and i've always the same error. here my rectangle value : { 'minx': 575 , 'miny': 483 , 'maxx': 746 , 'maxy': 355 }
06:21:46 tof_: aboudreault: if i try to swap miny and maxy an other error occurs :
06:21:59 tof_: aboudreault: java.lang.UnknownError: rectObj( ): Invalid rectangle. image ( pixel/line ) units { 'minx': 603.000000 , 'miny': 391.000000 , 'maxx': 759.000000 , 'maxy': 518.000000 }
06:40:10 aboudreault: { 'minx': 575 , 'miny': 483 , 'maxx': 746 , 'maxy': 355 } is definitively incorrect.
06:40:59 aboudreault: tof_: Could you try the same thing in a small python or php script? ( with the proper miny/maxy value )
06:42:18 tof_: aboudreault: hummm it will be not easy for me ...

10:11:54 Deeewayne: anyone available for some mapserver configuration consulting work ?
11:15:08 Lucent: i'm looking for a really sharp world shapefile
11:15:29 Lucent: or
11:15:38 Lucent: a normal, lame world shapefile that doesn't include the usa
11:15:58 Lucent: so i don't get overlap/underlap with my sharp usa boundary file
11:28:15 Lucent: or can i exclude a shape from a shape file?
11:30:17 FrankW: Lucent: if you know the shapeid of the shape to remove, you could use ogr2ogr to skip it.
11:30:21 FrankW: Something like:
11:30:39 FrankW: ogr2ogr out.shp in.shp -where 'fid != 123'
11:37:42 Lucent: cool
11:38:14 Lucent: i can dig around in the dbf to find that i hope
11:38:48 FrankW: The fid is not "in" the dbf, but it is the zero based index of the shape.
11:39:02 FrankW: Are there attributes with country name in the dbf?
11:39:10 FrankW: If so, you might also be able to do something like:
11:39:23 FrankW: ogr2ogr out.shp in.shp -where 'cntry_name != "USA"'
11:39:31 Lucent: i don't know how to read the dbf, i'm looking at the plaintext and see Country_col_regi URUGAY ........ 315000173982.4098324
11:40:12 FrankW: You can use ogrinfo to view the attributes of a shapefile set.
11:40:58 Lucent: 1: world ( polygon ) that sucks
11:41:05 Lucent: does that mean they're not separate countries?
11:42:10 FrankW: try "ogrinfo world.shp world" to see the actual features.
11:42:21 Lucent: excellent, there we go
11:42:25 FrankW: The default report shows the list of layers in the dataset.
11:42:55 Lucent: in the map file couldn't i just do EXPRESSION !NAME=UNITED STATES or some such?
11:43:07 FrankW: yes, likely.
11:43:18 Lucent: thanks for your help, i think i have enough info to figure it out now
11:43:19 Lucent: either way
13:15:44 Lucent: FrankW, thanks again for your help, everything is working beautifully
13:20:10 FrankW: great
