Re: [mapserver-users] Extra ? in WCS query

Hi I do not know if this is elegant but it works on Windows 1. Copy the mapserv.exe file in the cgi-bin directory and name a copy to whatever you want to use in the ServiceURL, for example testi_wcs1 2. Edit Apache httpd.conf file and add a new line SetEnvIf Request_URI /cgi-bin/testi_wcs1 MS_MAPFILE=d:/ms4w/maps/testi_wcs1.map 3. Restart Apache Now if the service url is pointing to /cgi-bin/testi_wcs1? MS_MAPFILE is set to d:/ms4w/maps/testi_wcs1.map automatically. Make more copies of mapserv.exe and add new lines into httpd.conf when you will have a need short urls for testi_wcs2 and others. ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
[mapserver-users] Extra ? in WCS query
Hi, I try to get data from mapserv WCS to Esri Arcmap. Esri only gives error message. I opened apache log and Esri makes query : /cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:\blaah\testi.map?SERVICE=WCS In browser Esri query above gives error as well Service parameter missing. By removing ? from above ... testi.map?SERVICE ... query seems to work in browser. Question. Is this ? problem of mapserv or Esri? Thanks!

Tapio, I presume you are specifying .../cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:\blaah\testi.map as the service URL when setting things up with ArcMap? I believe ArcMap uses GDAL's WCS driver underneath for WCS server access and the GDAL WCS driver service definition file should include the ? in the service url. However, it is possible that ArcMap is adding an extra question mark to whatever you specify when it is defining the GDAL WCS ServiceURL. If so, the problem is with ArcMap, and you should file a ticket with them. In the meantime, you can wrap the WCS service so that the map does not need to be defined in the URL.
