hi

the plugin need a working url where it will happend stuff like &SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&VERSION=1.1.1 and the like. from the plugin point of view, it doesnt matter if that url is an external server or an internal proxy address, as long as the external wms server can be accessed in one way or another and respond correctly when queried through the proxy, it should work.

thats the theory though, maybe some adaptations of the plugin may be needed depending of your network/proxy

Oliver

Hi,
I have a connecting question to the wmsBrowser / proxy problem:
We plan to setup a project with the wmsBrowser plugin activated.
But our server (cartoweb 3.4 on Ubuntu) stays behind a proxy as do all
the computers in our university network.
Is it possible for the wmsBrowser to connect through a proxy to external
WMS servers?

Thanks,
Kurt

well, beside configuring your proxy to allow the server to connect to
internet in one way or another, I dont really see what can be done

        Yes, this could be indeed. I'm connecting via a proxy. If I
        disable it, I can't connect to internet.
        I tried to put the adresses of my wms url's in the "url that
        don't use proxy" but it doesn't change anything.

        Can I do something for that?

        Thanks.
        Claire

                could it be that the server can not directly access
                external url ?

                                do you have that problem with all wms
                                server or only specific ones ?

                                                hi



                                                the plugin try to
                                                access the wms server
                                                url with these
                                                parameters added:


&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&VERSION=1.1.1

                                                if the answer is not
                                                valid, you get the
                                                "Can't get server
                                                capabilities" error
                                                message is displayed



                                                you can easily try
                                                manualy to type that
                                                request in a browser
                                                and see if the server
                                                answer with some valid
                                                GetCapabilities answer



                                                regards
