Sudo apt-get install cgi-mapserver mapserver-bin mapserver-doc php5-mapscript python-mapscript MapServer 4.10.3 will be installed (latest of MapServer 4.x serie, the actual MapServer is at 5.0.0), as indicated by typing.
The PHP/MapScript module is a PHP dynamically loadable module that makes MapServer’s MapScript functions and classes available in a PHP environment. The original version of MapScript (in Perl) uses, but since SWIG does not support the PHP language, the module has to be maintained separately and may not always be in sync with the Perl version. The PHP module was developed by and is currently maintained. This document assumes that you are already familiar with certain aspects of your operating system:. For Unix/Linux users, a familiarity with the build environment, notably make. For Windows users, some compilation skills if you don’t have ready access to a pre-compiled installation and need to compile your own copy of MapServer with the PHP/MapScript module. Build/Install the PHP/MapScript Module Building on a Linux Box NOTE: For UNIX users, see the README.CONFIGURE file in the MapServer source, or see the HowTo.
The main MapServer configure script will automatically setup the main makefile to compile phpmapscript.so if you pass the –with-php=DIR argument to the configure script. Copy the phpmapscript.so library to your PHP extensions directory, and then use the dl function to load the module at the beginning of your PHP scripts. See also the PHP function to check whether an extension is already loaded. The file mapscript/php3/examples/phpinfomapscript.phtml will test that the phpmapscript module is properly installed and can be loaded. If you get an error from PHP complaining that it cannot load the library, then make sure that you recompiled and reinstalled PHP with support for dynamic libraries. On RedHat 5.x and 6.x, this means adding “-rdynamic” to the CLDFLAGS in the main PHP3 Makefile after running./configure Also make sure all directories in the path to the location of phpmapscript.so are at least r-x for the HTTPd user (usually ‘nobody’), otherwise dl may complain that it cannot find the file even if it’s there. Building on Windows.
For Windows users, it is recommended to look for a precompiled binary for your PHP version on the or use the installer. If for some reason you really need to compile your own Windows binary then see the README.WIN32 file in the MapServer source (good luck!). Example Steps of a Full Windows Installation Using MS4W (MapServer for Windows). Download the latest. Extract the files in the archive to the root of one of your drives (e.g. Double-click the file /ms4w/apache-install.bat to install and start the Apache Web server. In a web browser goto.
You should see an MS4W opening page. You are now running PHP, PHP/MapScript, and Apache. You can now optionally install other applications that are pre-configured for MS4W, which are located on the. Manual Installation Using Apache Server.

Download the and extract it to the root of a directory (eg. Download and extract it to your Apache folder (eg. Create a temp directory to store MapServer created GIFs. NOTE: This directory is specified in the IMAGEPATH parameter of the WEB Object in the reference. For this example we will call the temp directory “mstmp” (eg. Locate the file httpd.conf in the conf directory of Apache, and open it in a text viewer (eg. TextPad, Emacs, Notepad).
In the Alias section of this file, add aliases to the mstmp folder and any other folder you require (for this example we will use the msapps folder). Action application / x - httpd - php4 '/cgi-php4/php.exe'. Copy the file php4.ini-dist located in your Apache/php4 directory and paste it into your WindowsNT folder (eg. C:/winnt), and then rename this file to php.ini in your WindowsNT folder. If you want specific extensions loaded by default, open the php.ini file in a text viewer and uncomment the appropriate extension.
Place the file phpmapscript.dll into your Apache/php4/extensions folder. Installation Using Microsoft’s IIS (please see the document for uptodate steps). Install IIS if required (see the ). Install PHP and PHP/MapScript (see above). Open the Internet Service Manager (eg. Select the Default web site and create a virtual directory (right click, select New/Virtual directory).

For this example we will call the directory msapps. In the Alias field enter msapps and click Next.
Enter the path to the root of your application (eg. “c:/msapps”) and click Next. Set the directory permissions and click Finish. Select the msapps virtual directory previously created and open the directory property sheets (by right clicking and selecting properties) and then click on the Virtual directory tab. Click on the Configuration button and then click the App Mapping tab. Click Add and in the Executable box type: path/to/php4/php.exe%s%s.
You MUST have the%s%s on the end, PHP will not function properly if you fail to do this. In the Extension box, type the file name extension to be associated with your PHP scripts. Usual extensions needed to be associated are phtml and php. You must repeat this step for each extension.
Create a temp directory in Explorer to store MapServer created GIFs. Questions Regarding Documentation Q: Is there any documentation available? A: The main reference document is the, which describes all of the current classes, properties and methods associated with the PHP/MapScript module. To get a more complete description of each class and the meaning of their member variables, see the and the. The also has PHP/MapScript build and installation notes and some php code snippets. Q: Where can I find sample scripts?
A: Some examples are included in directory mapserver/mapscript/php3/examples/ in the MapServer source distribution. A good one to get started is testdrawmap.phtml: it’s a very simple script that just draws a map, legend and scalebar in an HTML page.
A good intermediate example is the (note that this document was created for an earlier MapServer version but the code might be still useful). The original example is the “Gmap demo”, download the whole source and data files from the. Make sure you replace the phpmapscript.so with the name under which you installed it, it could be phpmapscript46.so on Unix, or phpmapscript46.dll on Windows You can then try the second test page mapserver/mapscript/php3/examples/testdrawmap.phtml. This page simply opens a MapServer.map file and inserts its map, legend, and scalebar in an HTML page.
Modify the page to access one of your own MapServer.map files, and if you get the expected result, then everything is probably working fine. Q: I try to display my.phtml or.php page in my browser but the page is shown as it would it Notepad. A: The problem is that your PHP installation does not recognize “.phtml” as a PHP file extension.
Assuming you’re using PHP4 under Apache then you need to add the following line with the other PHP-related AddType lines in the httpd.conf. AddType application / x - httpd - php. Phtml For a more detailed explanation, see the section of this document. Q: I installed the PROJ.4, GDAL, or one of the support libraries on my system, it is recognized by MapServer’s “configure” as a system lib but at runtime I get an error: “libproj.so.0: No such file or directory”. A: You are probably running a RedHat Linux system if this happened to you. This happens because the libraries install themselves under /usr/local/lib but this directory is not part of the runtime library path by default on your system. (I’m still surprised that “configure” picked PROJ.4 as a system lib since it’s not in the system’s lib pathprobably something magic in autoconf that we’ll have to look into) There are a couple of possible solutions:.
Add a “setenv LDLIBRARYPATH” to your httpd.conf to contain that directory. Edit /etc/ld.so.conf to add /usr/local/lib, and then run “/sbin/ldconfig”.
This will permanently add /usr/local/lib to your system’s runtime lib path. Configure MapServer with the following options. With - proj =/ usr / local - enable - runpath and the /usr/local/lib directory will be hardcoded in the exe and.so files I (Daniel Morissette) personally prefer option #2 because it is permanent and applies to everything running on your system.
Q: Does PHP/MapScript have to be setup as a CGI? A: Yes, please see the in the MapServer Wiki for details. Q: I have compiled PHP as a CGI and when PHP tries to load the phpmapscript.so, I get an “undefined symbol: registerlistdestructors” error. What’s wrong?
A: Your PHP CGI executable is probably not linked to support loading shared libraries. The MapServer configure script must have given you a message about a flag to add to the PHP Makefile to enable shared libs.
Edit the main PHP Makefile and add “-rdynamic” to the LDFLAGS at the top of the Makefile, then relink your PHP executable. Note: The actual parameter to add to LDFLAGS may vary depending on the system you’re running on. On Linux it is “-rdynamic”, and on.BSD it is “-export-dynamic”. Q: What are the best combinations of MapScript and PHP versions? A: The best combinations are:.
MapScript 4.10 with PHP 5.2.1 and up. MapScript 4.10 with PHP 4.4.6 and up.
Hello, I am running Apache2 server along with MapServer in an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. However, while I am trying to load an application I am receiving an error message which according to the log file is the following: 'PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/20131226/phpmapscript.so' - /usr/lib/php/20131226/phpmapscript.so: cannot open shared' As I understand my application requires the php-mapscript package to be installed, right?
Could anyone help on how could I install that package and make it 'recognizable' in Apache2 and MapServer? PS: I had found a package in prior and installed it with the sudo gdebi command (as it was a single.deb file and not in a repository) but it seems that something is missing regarding the proper installation.

Starting point is to ensure that the phpmapscript.so was complied for the same version of PHP you are running. With the php extensions, the static components need to match. 20131226 suggests quite an old php build! My next step would be to check php can actually see the.so file, but properly compiled extensions should already be in the right place.

Any idea on how this could be done? Can you actually see /usr/lib/php/20131226/phpmapscript.so at that location?
The 2013 date is still confusing since PHP5.6 did not come out until August 2014. That date is around time 5.5.20 was released. Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - L.S.Caine Electronic Services - EnquirySolve - Model Engineers Digital Workshop - Rainbow Digital Media - mapserver-users mailing list.

I have the same php version as you (5.6.31) along with php 7 but I've switched to 5.6 for mapserver reasons. If you can't see phpmapscript.so in there, my guess is that you haven't compiled php mapscript at all. If you downloaded mapserver and other mapscript versions from the repositories, be aware that php mapscript is only available through compilation with CMake.
After you've done it you need to open you php.ini file and add the extension as: extension = 'phpmapscript.so'. Make sure that when you compile from source, php 7 is removed from your system or you'll get a lot of errors.at least I did and could't fix them, even by adding various patches I found on the internet, until I removed version 7 prior to compilation.
