[MS4W-Users] Intalling MS4W 3.1.4

[Basques, Bob (CI-StPaul)]

It works pretty much the same way.

Although I would suggest using a relative (to the Web server root) path instead of the explicit one you are showing as an example right now.

Thanks for the help, I have MS4W installed and Apache web server running!!

My next question is, I was previously running MapServer in IIS from a site under Default Web Site named "mapserver"

I was calling mapServer and pointing it to my map files like so...

"http://SomeServerName/mapserver/mapserv.exe?map=E:/RCIS/Web/Mapfiles/someMapFile.map<http://someservername/mapserver/mapserv.exe?map=E:/RCIS/Web/Mapfiles/someMapFile.map>"

...and it would return the layers I was calling, how is this performed with MS4W with apache web server service?

...sorry for all the questions but I am new to this.

Yes, see the link on the homepage http://ms4w.com  That installer will setup Apache, MapServer, etc.

You might also want to review the documentation (installation steps) as well, before you begin: http://ms4w.com/documentation.html

One thing to verify, is that you are able to download other files from other hosts, through http (meaning: in the browser try to download a file from another website).

While attempting to install MS4W 3.1.4 on a x64 Windows 2012 Server I
receive the error...

"Download of http://www.ms4w.com/release/archive/zip/ms4w_3.1.4.zip

I've tried disabling anti-virus with the same result.



Any help is greatly appreciated.



Thanks!
