Hi list!
I'm getting an error message when trying to display a WMS layer from a
specific provider with QGIS 1.7.4 on MacOS X. The GetCapabilities works
fine but when adding a layer, I get a cryptic short error message with
"PNG???" or "JPEG???".
My question: is there any way I can access QGIS verbose error logs?
I'd like to understand (and thus fix) what's wrong. I suspect it's our
WMS server that is not behaving correctly, but it does work with several
other software such as OpenLayers, ArcGIS, MapInfo, etc. So far, only
QGIS on MacOS X fails (it appears to work fine on QGIS on Windows) to
load WMS layers from this server (other WMS servers appear to work fine
in the MacOS X version of QGIS).
For those curious to test, here's the WMS server:
http://wms.weatheroffice.gc.ca/geomet/?service=WMS&request=getCapabilities
It's on WeatherOffice, one of the most visited websites in Canada (don't
we all like to know how to dress in the morning ;-) and I'd like to
direct users of our WMS to QGIS in the official documentation, but I
first need QGIS to work fine with our WMS server!
Thanks for any feedback -
