The coordinate system initialization failed. - Could not initialize the geodetic transformation.

[zspitzer]

Using a repository which worked fine with MGE, I am getting this error with the 2.1 test installer

<2009-03-19T20:36:34> 5068 Ajax Viewer 127.0.0.1 Administrator

Error: Failed to stylize layer: aug 06-ROADS - HWY

The coordinate system initialization failed. Could not initialize the geodetic transformation.

StackTrace?:

• MgMappingUtil?.StylizeLayers?() line 763 file c:\osgeo\mapguide\server\src\services\mapping\MappingUtil?.cpp

the path is correct, the map is in GDA94

MENTOR_DICTIONARY_PATH=C:\Program Files\OSGeo\MapGuide Server\CSMap\Dictionaries\

I am getting a similar error from a Fusion AJAX call on a 2.1 build. I've attached an image showing the CS error.

My MENTOR_DICTIONARY_PATH is also set to:

C:\Program Files\OSGeo\MapGuide Server\CSMap\Dictionaries\

And this folder contains the files in the attached MentorDict.txt file.

Here's my CS:

PROJCS["NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_10N",GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983",DATUM["D_North_American_1983",SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137,298.257222101]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",500000],PARAMETER["False_Northing",0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",-123],PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",0.9996],PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",0],UNIT["Meter",1]]

And I get the same error for another map in same/similar CS:

solution is a few missing files

coordsys.asc, datums.asc, ellipsoid.asc, mreg.asc, category.asc, NameMapper?.csv

[jbirch]

Hi Zac, I think Hugues said that those .asc files are unneeded; only the .csv files are reequired. I'm going to attach a couple patches; I can't wait up to see if my full rebuild succeeds; I'll let you know when I wake up :)

[zspitzer]

ahhh, i got confused because the .asc files weren't in the installer

just tested and it works without the.asc files

Fixed in r3761 and r3762
