Thanks Steve. I should have been able to guess that, but the
PHP-MapScript documentation
(https://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/index.html) still has a metadata
member for the MapObj. As well as for the WebObj
As has been said before, the documentation for PHP Mapscript
(https://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/index.html) is not very helpful.
Essentially, it still describes the pre-SWIG version. I have been
compiling MapServer since before the first marvelous MapServer-meeting
in 2003 (https://maps.hisgis.nl/conferences/2003/mum/, look at the
photographs!), but I have been using the UbuntuGIS version for the last
few years. It was really a pain to get the current version working from
scratch in a user directory. I was almost starting to think about
switching to GeoServer :-). To get the "official" PHP-Mapscript-guide
working I had to use:
https://ms4w.com/trac/wiki/MigrationGuide5.x
https://mapserver.org/MIGRATION_GUIDE.html
https://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/migration_guide.html
https://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/index.html
The main new requirements (including mapscript.php and setting
mapserver.conf) core-dump the PHP-script when missing, so that too leads
to some not-so-nice debugging. I would strongly advise to bring the
documentation of MapScript up to date and to base it on the most recent
version. And to clean out a bit the remnants of previous releases.
There seems to be a working Docker-version for MapServer/Mapscript in
Debian Bookworm
(https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-dev/2023-October/017032.html),
but I haven't tested it yet. Has anyone worked with it? And does anyone
know of a recent Docker version for Mapserver/Mapscript in Alpine? Some
organisations I am working for in the Euregio Aachen-Liege-Maastricht
require Alpine for their Docker version.
Anyway, thanks to Tanya, Vassilis and Steve,
Jan Hartmann

Almost there. There are additional migration examples in:
https://ms4w.com/trac/wiki/MigrationGuide5.x
I wrote wrapper functions for the old ms_new... functions, and can
create that way a new mapObj called $oMap.
The "set" function has been renamed to "__set" : not
$oMap->set("maxsize",6020), but: ;$oMap->__set("maxsize",6020);
Layers can be declared as before: $layer = $oMap->getLayer(1).
Metadata have to be set as follows:
Not: $layer->setMetadata("...","..."); but:
$layer->metadata->set("...","...")
However, I cannot set the metadata of the mapObj:
$oMap->metadata->set("...","...") gives: "Undefined array key "metadata""
Any idea?

Yes the documentation is a mess .
I worked with this reference:
https://mapserver.org/mapscript/mapscript-api/index.html
So, you start by
$oMap= newmapObj($mapfile);

This seems to work. And it says so in the migration guide
(https://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/migration_guide.html):
all of your PHP scripts (that leverage MapServer objects and
functions) must now always first include the generated
mapscript.php file containing MapServer constants:
But could it be that only "$m = new mapObj('...');" is accepted,
and "$m=ms_newMapObj('...');" isn't? The docs still mention the
old call (https://mapserver.org/mapscript/php/phpmapscript.html

Hi,
I did it recently. There should be a mapscript.php file in the
same folder as the php_mapscriptng.so extension.
You need to include it in your php script.
Best,

I made a docker version of mapserver/php-mapscript myself,
based on Ubuntu 22.04. I installed all required libraries with
apt, and compiled mapserver and mapscript according to
instructions. No problem at all.
At the end I got the following from phpinfo();
mapscript
*MapServer Version*
MapServer version 8.0.1 PROJ version 9.3 GDAL version 3.4
OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=AGG
SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=ICONV SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER
SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WFS_CLIENT
SUPPORTS=WCS_SERVER SUPPORTS=OGCAPI_SERVER SUPPORTS=GEOS
INPUT=JPEG INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE
INPUT=FLATGEOBUF
But no mapscript function or object was regognized in my
PHP-scripts:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class "mapObj" not found in
/virdir/www_root/test.php:2
Stack trace:
#0 {main}
thrown in /virdir/www_root/test.php on line 2
I am really desparate. Has anyone ever succeeded to get
php_mapscriptng.so to work? Or does anyone know of a working
Docker image for MapServer with PHP MapScript?
