Hi Andrew, Just want to make sure that you modified the ui.xml as instructed in las/contrib/insitu/INSTRUCTIONS.txt ------------------------------------------------------------ <!DOCTYPE spec SYSTEM "spec.dtd" [ <!ENTITY StdOptions SYSTEM "options.xml"> <!-- general insitu UI behavior and options --> <!ENTITY insitu_ui SYSTEM "insitu_ui.xml"> <!ENTITY insitu_options SYSTEM "insitu_options.xml"> <!-- UI elements specific to the LAS_insitu_demo --> <!ENTITY insitu_demo_ui SYSTEM "insitu_demo_ui.xml"> ]> <lasui title="YOUR TITLE"> &StdOptions; &insitu_ui; &insitu_options; &insitu_demo_ui; ... ------------------------------------------------------------ Joe ----------------------------------- Chase, Andrew wrote: A little more information.

However, when I insert a spelling error in &insitu_operations I get nothing, still the same error from the UI as before, but nothing from make. My declaration of the entity looks fine: <!-- Declaration of operations files to be included --> <!ENTITY operations SYSTEM "operations.xml"> <!ENTITY insitu_operations SYSTEM "insitu_operations.xml"> And the insitu_operations.xml file is in the server directory, I even opened up the permissions on it, in case that was the problem. For whatever reason, LAS isn't seeing that insitu_operations entity... -Andrew-----Original Message----- From: Chase, Andrew [mailto:achase@mbari.org] Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2004 11:43 AM To: 'las_users@noaa.gov' Subject: RE: Problems setting up insitu data access Hi Roland, Thanks for your reply. I'm pretty sure I've got the proper references to the insitu_operations.xml in the las.xml file as well as the insitu_operations.xml file in the server directory. I double-checked those steps of the setup process after I received your email, and I made sure to verify that I followed the directions laid out in the documentation. I'm still getting the same error though. I'm going to go back through one more time and make sure my configuration follows the documentation, any other suggestions? Thanks for explaining the path mapping to element hierarchies, that makes a lot more sense.

If not copy it over from contrib/insitu/server/. Then add a reference to it in the <operations> element of your las.xml file. E.g. <!ENTITY InsituOperations SYSTEM "insitu_operations.xml"> ... <operations url="" class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="">"http://server.com/las-bin/LASserver.pl"> &StdOperations; &InsituOperations; </operations> By the way, the paths /lasdata/operations/insitu_data_cdf and the like refer to element hierarchies in the XML document, not Unix file systems. The software is looking for a definition in an element hierarchy like this: <lasdata> <operations ...> <insitu_data_cdf.../> ... </operations> </lasdata> which you will be supplying by installing the reference to the insitu_operations.xml file. Roland Chase, Andrew wrote:Hello fellow LAS users, I'm working on serving non-gridded data from a database andas a first step I've been trying to setup the insitu dataset that comes with the LAS distribution. I'm using LAS version 6.4.1 on a itanium 64 running Redhat 9. I went through the 'make insitu' process and everything seemed to install fine. However, when I try to get any sort of output from the the insitu dataset I get an error.With the following options selected: Select view: Longitude-Depth Sections Select output: ASCII table Select region: Full Region Select time range: 01 Jan 1986 to 31 Dec 1988 Select depth range: 0 to 2000 Select Constraints: None Rather than getting the expected ASCII table, I receive thefollowing error:LAS Error The following error message was received from LAS: Can't find match target '/lasdata/operations/insitu_data' at'insitu_data' at ../xml/perl/LAS.pm line 613Depending on the selected view and selected output, I getother similar errors:LAS Error The following error message was received from LAS: Can't find match target'/lasdata/operations/insitu_data_cdf' at 'insitu_data_cdf' at ../xml/perl/LAS.pm line 613LAS Error The following error message was received from LAS: Can't find match target '/lasdata/operations/insitu_meta_xy'at 'insitu_meta_xy' at ../xml/perl/LAS.pm line 613Looks like I've got some sort of path configuration problem,but I can't find any documentation on how to set up the lasdata path. Additionally, I can't find an "operations" directory within my LAS installation. I see a .jnl file named insitu_meta_xy in $LASHOME/server/jnls/insitu/ is this what LAS is looking for? I don't see any files named insitu_data or insitu_data_cdf anywhere in the $LASHOME directory.Any thoughts, suggestions? Thanks, Andrew Andrew C.
