Yes, that's it. Thanks, Seth!
It was an insidious migration problem. The old way of cloning a layer
($l2 = new layerObj($oMap,$l1);) still works, but ignores the second
parameter. So you get a default new layer, with STATUS OFF. I filled
every member but that. No wonder the layers didn't turn on. Could this
function be made to fail when called with two parameters?

Hi Jan,
I'm not a PHP MapScript user but you should be able to use:
$l2 = $l1->cloneLayer();
As per the note at the following link - "In the Java & PHP modules this method is
named cloneLayer. "
https://mapserver.org/mapscript/mapscript-api/stub/mapscript.layerObj.html#mapscript.layerObj.clone
I'm guessing there is a clash with the a reserved keyword in PHP so the method
needs a different name.

Hi,
In previous versions of PHP MapScript a new layer was defined as:
$l2 = new layerObj($oMap,$l1);
$l1 is the base layer from which $l2 is copied.
In MapScript SWIG the second parameter has disappeared. $l2 has to be
cloned from $l1, and then inserted into the map. With PHP-MapScript this
should be:
$l2 = $l1->clone();
$oMap->insertLayer($l2);
But there is no PHP-MapScript function layerObj::clone. What do I miss?
