Dear Till, Andreas and Marco,

thank you for your responses, you gave really valuable hints!

I knew the CRS was fine and did not check the port but ticked "ignore GetMapUrl" and - magic - it worked like a charm. Investigating further I realized that the GetCapabilities XML-document propagates
<GetMap>
  <Format>image/jpeg</Format>
  <Format>image/png</Format>
  <DCPType>
    <HTTP>
      <Get>
<OnlineResource xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="//10.144.9.51 /fcgi-bin/test/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?"/>
      </Get>
    </HTTP>
  </DCPType>
</GetMap>
whereas I configured http://10.144.9.51/fcgi-bin/test/qgis_mapserv.fcgi in QGIS-Desktop. I would prefer to have a correct URL in GetCapabilities. How can I configure this?

And, yes, I am using a metre-based CRS so I keep Marco's third possibility in mind until I update.

regards

Bernhard

Hi Bernhard

I can only guess.

One possibility might be that the GetMap URL in the capability document points
to the wrong place (e.g. an internal url). If this is the case, try if it
works if in QGIS if you check 'ignore GetMapUrl' in the WMS connection
settings.

Another possibility: QGIS server is more strict with regards to CRS than
desktop. If the layers don't have the right CRS assigned, they might be
projected out of image.

Third possibility: the layers have scale based visibility and your CRS is in
meters. If this is the case, do a git pull to get the newest version (there
was a bug related to this recently).

Hope it helps,
Marco

Dear All,

I set up QGIS-Server with apache2 on an OPENSuse-box (64bit)
I can:
1) send a GetMap-request from the browser and QGIS-Server returns a map
(this works on the same machine and from a remote machine)
2) enter the server as WMS-server in QGIS-desktop. When I connect I get
a list of available layers, so GetCapabilities works.

I cannot:
- retrieve a layer offered in 2) into QGIS-desktop. A new layer is
entered to the list of layers but it is all white.

from-the-QGIS-Server-at-a-desktop-GIS-td6783271.html describes the same
question (unanswered)

any hints or ideas?

regards

Bernhard
