FYI I have been able to reproduce this with the current development
version and have filed a bug:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1996
Note that you are using the "old" way of specifying WMS CONNECTIONS. You
will not get this error if you use the "new" way which uses metadata
entries to specify all connection settings, e.g.
LAYER
NAME "test-test"
MAXSCALE 5000
MINSCALE 500
METADATA
"wms_name" "TEST.TEST"
"wms_server_version" "1.1.1"
"wms_format" "image/png"
"wms_srs" "EPSG:32633"
"wms_onlineresource" "http://wms.server.org/wms_test?";
"wms_title" "Test"
"wms_connectiontimeout" "200"
"wms_opaque" "1"
END
TYPE RASTER
CONNECTIONTYPE WMS
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:32633"
END
END #layer

While editing the connection string for my email, I must have
removed too much. Sorry! The problem persists though.
The "LAYERS=" was there originally:
CONNECTION
"http://wms.server.org/wms_test?VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=TEST.TEST&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png";
Produces the following in the mapserver log file (slightly edited...):
Thu Jan 4 15:46:17 2007,23090,127.0.0.1,test-wms,0,261498.765626
6621607.187500 262014.390626 6622122.812500,261756.578126
6621865.000000,test ,msBuildWMSLayerURL(): WMS connection error.
MapServer supports only WMS 1.0.0 to 1.1.1 (please verify the VERSION
parameter in the connection string). <br>
msOWSParseVersionString(): WMS server error. Invalid version
(1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=TEST.TEST&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png).
OWS version must be in the format 'x.y' or 'x.y.z' <br>
while
CONNECTION
"wms.server.org/wms_test?VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=TEST_TEST&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png"
Gives me an inimage exception ("LAYER with ID TEST_TEST does not exist")
from the WMS server, as expected.
To reproduce the error one should only need to create a map file
with a WMS layer and a connection string that includes a layer name
with a "." in it.

Hi,
Maybe this is not the reason for your trouble, but shouldn't it in any
case be
&LAYERS=TEST.TEST? Now LAYERS seem to be missing from your URL
http://wms.server.org/wms_test?VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&TEST.TEST&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png

Just looking at the error message it's not obvious what is really
happening. Could you share your full layer definition from the
mapfile? Also, which version of MapServer are you using?
Sorry, I am using:

I am experiencing problems with a WMS connections where
layer names contain dots/periods (".").
Whenever a layer name with a "." appears in the "LAYERS"
parameter of the WMS connection string, mapserver has
trouble parsing the connection string.
From the Mapserver log (connect string is:
"http://wms.server.org/wms_test?VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&TEST.TEST&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png";):
msOWSParseVersionString(): WMS server error. Invalid version
(1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&TEST.TEST&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png).
OWS version must be in the format 'x.y' or 'x.y.z' <br>
If I remove the "." no parsing errors occur.
Are periods/dots (".") allowed in WMS Layer Name?
If so, is this a bug?
