Hi, I have Mapserver in Debian Lenny. Mapserver is version 5.0.3-3 installed from official Lenny package (http://packages.debian.org/fi/lenny/cgi-mapserver).
My Mapserver acts as WMS-client to another WMS-server. Problem is that that Mapserver 5.0.3 encodes special characters in WMS-parameters in url to %xF format before sending and WMS server rejects the request. WMS parameters in url should be in format: LAYERS=map_250k&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&FORMAT=image/png&STYLES=..... etc. Mapserver 5.0.3 encodes the url string like this: LAYERS=map%5F250k&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&STYLES=.... etc. I found discussion about this issue and it seems that it is a bug which is fixed in new versions: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/1296 Is there any workaround to prevent this happen in version 5.0.3? It is the latest version in official lenny packages. The other alternative is to compile new MapServer version from sources but can I do that in Debian Lenny without meeting never ending dependency problems in compiling?
