Hi Derek,

Since your request is using WMS 1.3.0, the issue could be specifying long/lat vs lat/long in your CRS parameter of the WMS GetMap request (see example requests at http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#coordinate-systems-and-axis-orientation).

I would also check the GetCapabilities response for any warnings.

Also, another option for testing your mapfile styling instead of your first link (CGI method) is to use the shp2img commandline utlity, that comes ready for your use in MS4W as well (see http://mapserver.org/utilities/shp2img.html).

Happy mapserving :)

Hello,

I am attempting to set up a basic MapServer environment and finding
myself such at what I think is a styling through WMS issue. I am finding
if I call up a WMS via the following URL I get the expected results


http://127.0.0.1:8080/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/wq/wq.map&layer=wq_stations&mode=map


However, if I call the same WMS using

http://127.0.0.1:8080/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/wq/wq.map&SERVICE=WMS&map=/ms4w/apps/wq/wq.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=wq_stations&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=-87.6,30.00,-87.26,31.00&STYLES=&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600&FORMAT=image/png

I get a blank page. Perhaps in the first URL I am not actually using
WMS, but I am thinking the issue is more to do with how I setup or
incorrectly my STYLE. Here is my map file for reference:

#

            STYLE

            END
        END # CLASS
END # LAYER
    END # LAYER
END # Map File

Any pointers on what I am doing or interpreting incorrectly would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Derek
