I found that I was unable to connect to the Onearth NASA WMS server for the global_mosaic visual_bright layer and found that the server was overloaded and wouldn't serve the image. They recommend that their tile server be used instead, so I was trying to figure out how to get QGIS (Mimas 1.3.0 on Vista) to use the Tiled WMS and have been unable to do this. This service is described on the website: http://onearth.jpl.nasa.gov/tiled.html - I added the URL: http://onearth.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?request=GetTileService to my WMS connections and when I tried to connect to it, I got this message:

Could not understand the response. The wms provider said:

Could not get WMS capabilities in the expected format (DTD): no WMS_Capabilities or WMT_MS_Capabilities found

This is probably due to an incorrect WMS Server URL.

Tried URL: http://onearth.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?request=GetTileService&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities


Am I doing something wrong?


thanks,
            Bob Bruce
