Need to generalize the value for MS_MAP_PATTERN in Apache. What's the path to all the GeoMoose mapfiles?

comment:2 by kalxas, 3 years ago

Files are available in various sub-folders of /usr/local/geomoose/gm3-demo-data/

comment:3 by jimk, 3 years ago

/usr/local/geomoose/gm3-demo-data/

And actually, I think the only mapfiles called directly are in

/usr/local/geomoose/gm3-demo-data/*/*.map

The top level ones are only referenced by INCLUDE statements.

I'll supply a patch to the MapServer install script ASAP.

Pull request merged:

https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/pull/313

but problem persists

comment:6 by sdlime, 3 years ago

Ugh... Looking at the screenshots the problem is the /./ in the mapfile path. The value for MS_MAP_PATTERN is explicitly blocking that (and so will subsequent versions of MapServer by default).

  • /usr/local/geomoose/gm3-demo-data/demo/./parcels/parcels.map - FAILS
  • /usr/local/geomoose/gm3-demo-data/demo/parcels/parcels.map - WORKS

I don't know how those paths are built within GeoMoose.

kalxas, what's the easiest way for me to fire up a local version of OSGeoLive with this issue?

This is coming from the GeoMoose Mapbooks:

/usr/local/geomoose/gm3-examples/htdocs/desktop/mapbook.xml
/usr/local/geomoose/gm3-examples/htdocs/mobile/mapbook.xml

Lines like:

<file>./demo/scalebars/scalebar_miles.map</file>

comment:8 by sdlime, 3 years ago

Is it reasonable to remove the ./ or do I need to figure out a different expression that allows /./ in the path?

comment:9 by jimk, 3 years ago

With this change in MapServer, I really want to move the GeoMoose to the /datasets/scalebar_miles.map?... style URLs (which can protect files and set the environment variables properly for each file using Apache directives) instead of /cgi-bin/mapserv?map=..., but I don't have time to do that before the OL14 release.

comment:10 by jimk, 3 years ago

I think the ./ can be removed from the mapbooks (sed???).

comment:11 by jimk, 3 years ago

I'm not sure if this misses something, but this is what I used on demo.geomoose.org.

SetEnv MS_MAP_PATTERN "^\/srv\/demo\/src\/3\.0\/gm3-demo-data\/(\./){0,1}([^\.][_A-Za-z0-9\-\.]+\/{1})*([_A-Za-z0-9\-\.]+\.(map))$"

comment:12 by sdlime, 3 years ago

Reasonable hint. I think I can just do something like:

"^/usr/local/(mapserver specific path)|(geomoose specific path)/([^\.][_A-Za-z0-9\-\.]+\/{1})*([_A-Za-z0-9\-\.]+\.(map))$"

So much easier in recently released version(s). More soon...

Just submitted another pull request that should allow /./ in paths. --Steve

Thanks, building a new iso to test and will provide feedback.

comment:16 by sdlime, 3 years ago

Have latest ISO running locally as a VM. Will give it another shot...

Ok, one more try. See https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/pull/315. Tested against the nightly ISO... --Steve
