I'm running MapServer on Windows 2000 Professional. I found out that
msOWSBuildURLFilename() in mapows.c adds a backslash character.

See following snippet:

#ifdef _WIN32
        sprintf(pszBuf, "%s\\", pszPath);
#else
        sprintf(pszBuf, "%s/", pszPath);
#endif

I think this is what's messing things up. My mapfile works fine for WMS and
the GML file mentioned in the error message is being created in the
appropriate directory.

Is this a bug? If so, what's the work around? If not, what am I doing wrong?

Jeff,

I have filed a bug in the MapServer bugzilla on this topic.

  http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1770

I would encourage you to add yourself to the cc: list.

I'll give Assefa or anyone else a chance to comment on the bug, and failing
that I'll dig into it.

In the meantime I would encourage you to remove the trailing backslash
from the above sprintf() in your local code (or perhaps remove it from
you temp file path in the web section), and verify that works.

I do *think* it is a bug in the code, but I am not exactly sure.

Best regards,
--
