Hi dear,

Thanks for your guide. 

Im a little bit confused on your step # 0 and 1. On #0, this dir must be on my local drive location? And on #1, where should i upload these files? Is it on the winscp? Im running now a online server btw. 

TIA for the help. 

Best regards,

Janh

The data folder and/or GRF should lie where your map server is.

So if you want to do it in your PC, compile the mapcache plugin and map-server in your PC

What do you mean by this? Is it an example of a local drive? Can I make it C:\Ro\data?

Yes, if you doing it on windows, it can be.
