Hi Trygve,

You can examine the problem QGIS GetMap request closely, through the Network Logger (it's really a saviour) https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Get-the-Raw-WMS-Request-Generated-by-QGIS

Then you can go back to review the trusty WMS Server document, and make sure you have set the required metadata: https://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html

(which also means to remove all warnings from your GetCapabilities response)

But that QGIS network logger is your lifeline :)

Hope that gets you started,

PS. I never use 'auto', ever, never, it's my own rule and that's how I keep my sanity and avoid these issues, ha. But others like it. I only speak for myself here.

Hi

I got a geotiff raster with a projection which is not an EPSG code, so in the mapfile I use AUTO in the layer projection. This also means I skip the extent and projection in map level in the mapfile. In one client this works fine ( this client request epsg:3857 and this looks fine to me)

But in QGIS, this does not work nor any other projections.

Then I add EXTENT and PROJECTION in my mapfile like this:
MAP
....
   EXTENT -56.6378419 31.5007307 95.025531 84.6828537
   PROJECTION
     "init=epsg:4326"
   END
....
END

And then EPSG:4326 works in QGIS also. But if I try to change the projection i qgis, eg to EPSG:3857, this does not work in QGIS, even if it still work in my other client.

So what is it that I don't understand about EXTENT and PROJECTION. I have looked at the documentation https://mapserver.org/mapfile/projection.html#important-notes and and as far as I can understand from the second bullet point the projection definition at map level can be looked as the outgoing projection with the extent accordingly.

What do I need to do to make QGIS be able to use other projections as well?

I do have a link to my getcapabilities document, but hesitates to put it here.
