#4103 new defect

OGR Output document should mention the TEMPPATH

Description

Mapserver OGR Output document http://mapserver.org/output/ogr_output.html says about the formatoption STORAGE=filesystem

"If “filesystem” then a temporary directory will be created under the IMAGEPATH were the file(s) will be written and then read back to stream to the client." This advise does not take into account the introduction of TEMPPATH for handling temporaty files http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-66.html

Documentation and the corresponding autotest mapfile http://svn.osgeo.org/mapserver/trunk/msautotest/wxs/wfs_ogr.map should be corrected so that they show the correct use of TEMPPATH in the mapfile WEB section. It would not harm to mention also that Mapserver needs read and write access to the TEMPPATH directory.

Documentation of STORAGE=filesystem updated in ogr_output for 6.0 and trunk in r12840. TEMPPATH was documented in r12839, mentioning the need for read/write access. Moving to msautotest (consider if TEMPPATH should be used in the WEB object).
