Re: [mapserver-users] wms
You are not normally supposed to include the other parameters (=WMS=1.1.1=GetCapabilities) when you are adding a WMS/WFS URL to QGIS. You specify the service and version in the QGIS dialog box instead. QGIS will append those parameters for you, and query the GetCapabilities for you, and provide you with a list of options. After you select a layer to include, QGIS will query without the GetCapabilities to retrieve the actual map images, based on what it finds when it did the GetCapabilities query. So, try http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c://ms4w/apps/webgis/wmssample.map (In fact when you are working with other GIS packages it is sometimes even a problem to include the ?map= parameter explicitly in the URL. There's some approach with Apache Rewrite rules or mapserver configuration files or something like that to tell mapserver the name of the mapfile without having it as a parameter in the URL. I can't find the documentation on that right now, but I didn't look too hard. It seems the normal use case is to have a public facing URL and then your different feature layers are all defined in the same mapfile that's hidden from the user. Anyway, my use case has hundreds of dynamically generated mapfiles, and QGIS never seems to have a problem with having the ?map= in the URL.) As the other person mentioned, try to avoid putting the drive letter "c://" in the URL. It's just confusing to everyone to have a drive letter in the middle of a url. Also, in your email below I see a space before the word map. Make sure that's not there in reality. " map" might not be recognized as the same parameter name as "map" -- John Abraham j...@hbaspecto.com 403-232-1060 > On Nov 24, 2015, at 12:24 AM, rishi <rish...@gmail.com> wrote: > > hi all > > my wms url is > http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe > <http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe>? > map=c://ms4w/apps/webgis/wmssample.map=WMS=1.1.1=GetCapabilities > > when i hit the above url it is downloading the mapserv.exe then i am changing > .exe to .txt then i can able to see xml file > > but when i am trying to add the above url in qgis, map is not displaying also > i am getting error as document is in invalid format. > > if i hit the url http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv > <http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv>? > map=c://ms4w/apps/webgis/wmssample.map=WMS=1.1.1=GetCapabilities > > without .exe the it is showing error as The requested URL /cgi-bin/mapserv > was not found on this server. > > please tell me how to resolve the issue > > > ___ > mapserver-users mailing list > mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Re: [mapserver-users] MapServer WFS/ArcGIS 10.1
I've created a wiki page about using the mapserver WFS with ArcGIS: https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/WFS-Server-working-with-ArcGIS-Data-Interoperability-Extensions Steve, there's not much else in my mapfile other than what's on the wiki page. I have a couple of include statements that include other layers (some roads for context, some barcharts for the WMS), but the example layer is the one that feeds data properly to the WFS clients. I'll be happy to send you the full mapfile if you still need it, but I don't want to post all the extra detail on the wiki. Please update the wiki if you learn more. -- John Abraham j...@hbaspecto.com 403-232-1060 On Feb 7, 2013, at 5:08 AM, Jeff McKenna jmcke...@gatewaygeomatics.com wrote: John I think it would be great if you took the time to create a Serving data through OGC/MapServer to ArcGIS 10 page on our wiki (https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki).

Re: [mapserver-users] MapServer WFS/ArcGIS 10.1
I have it working after struggling for a few days. A big part of it was that the mapserver documentation didn't specify the right string for double/float types. The GML type needs to be xsd:double. I filed a ticket to improve the mapserver documentation on this, not sure if that ticket went anywhere. Try that and copy me personally on any followup to the list. -- John Abraham j...@hbaspecto.com On Feb 6, 2013, at 4:49 PM, Jeff McKenna jmcke...@gatewaygeomatics.com wrote: On 13-02-06 6:55 PM, Lime, Steve D (MNIT) wrote: Anyone had any luck displaying a MapServer-based WFS service (MapServer 6.2) in ArcGIS 10.1 via the data interoperability extension?

Re: [mapserver-users] python scripting and layers
