Thanks for the info. I don't think these instances are using WKT/GML as input or output, if that's what you mean. Basic .ovf connection to provide WMS output. Is there anything we can do on our end to help with this issue? The problem is basically: ENVIRONMENT =========== OS: Win32 MapServer: 4.6.1 windows dist (non ms4w package from http://maptools.org/dl) Layer Data connection: OGR .ovf connection to M$ SQL Server 2000 SCENARIO 1 ========== - invoke OGC:WMS GetMap request against said layer with coordinates formatted with 8 decimals http://cabin.cciw.ca/cabin_ows.asp?version=1.1.1&service=WMS&request=Get Map&layers=CABINPoints&styles=&bbox=-141.00000000,35.18749999,-51.999999 99,90.81250000&format=image/png&srs=EPSG:4326&width=500&height=300 Result: works SCENARIO 2 ========== - invoke OGC:WMS GetMap request against said layer with coordinates formatted with 9 decimals http://cabin.cciw.ca/cabin_ows.asp?version=1.1.1&service=WMS&request=Get Map&layers=CABINPoints&styles=&bbox=-141.000000002,35.187499998,-51.9999 99997,90.812500001&format=image/png&srs=EPSG:4326&width=500&height=300 Result: watch server timeout ensue NOTES ===== - this does not exist when the layer data connection is a shapefile, for example ..Tom
