Hi all,

I've run into a strange issue when using a WFS filter with spaces and an 
OGRCONNECTION. 
I think I've narrowed it down to involving the following:

1. Using OGR CONNECTION (the filter is fine when using MapServer Shapefile 
connection) with a shapefile
2. Via a web server (I'm using IIS)

The following WFS filter:

<fes:Filter xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/fes/2.0 
http://schemas.opengis.net/filter/2.0/filterAll.xsd 
http://www.opengis.net/gml/3.2 http://schemas.opengis.net/gml/3.2.1/gml.xsd"; 
xmlns:fes="http://www.opengis.net/fes/2.0"; 
xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml/3.2"; 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";><fes:PropertyIsLike 
wildCard="*" singleChar="." escape="!" 
matchCase="false"><fes:ValueReference>name</fes:ValueReference><fes:Literal>*Old
 T*</fes:Literal></fes:PropertyIsLike></fes:Filter>

Returns this error:

<ows:Exception exceptionCode="OperationProcessingFailed" locator="mapserv">
    <ows:ExceptionText>msWFSGetFeature(): WFS server error. 
FLTApplyFilterToLayer() failed
msOGRFileNextShape(): OGR error. OGR GetNextFeature() error'd. Check 
logs.</ows:ExceptionText>
  </ows:Exception>

Within the filter it is the Literal tag that has a problem - whenever the 
literal tag is greater than a certain number of characters. 

The following work:

<fes:Literal>* R*</fes:Literal>
<fes:Literal>* O*</fes:Literal>
<fes:Literal>*Old*</fes:Literal>
<fes:Literal>*Fic*</fes:Literal>

The following breaks the filter:

<fes:Literal>*Ficc*</fes:Literal>
<fes:Literal>*Oldt</fes:Literal>
<fes:Literal>Old</fes:Literal> (a strange one as it is fewer characters than 
others)

I cannot recreate the issue using the command line passing in the exact same 
content, so I think it could relate to encoding of the filter in the POST 
request. I'm using "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; 
charset=UTF-8" other types give parsing errors e.g. msOWSPreParseRequest(): OWS 
error. XML parsing error: Start tag expected, &#39;&lt;&#39; not found

Perhaps the encoding makes the literal tag too long somewhere in OGR?

Any insights appreciated,

Seth
