Re: [Qgis-user] seting up a wms server problems
Ricardo,
This is probably a better question for the MapServer list, but I will
give it a shot:
I would suggest creating a WMS request and testing it directly in a
browser. In your example URL[2], you are making a mode=map request,
not a WMS request. If you get this to work, you know that you have a
working WMS server.
I am wondering if the issue with the WMS request not working is due to
the spatial reference system used by your QGIS project.
David.

Hello list
I've been trying to set up a wms server on my laptop for testing
purposes but I can't seem to make it work.
I'm using mapserver, having installed version 5.4.2 as supplied by the
ubuntugis-unstable repository for ubuntu 9.10, which is my operating
system.
I created the mapfile[1], tested the GetCapabilities request through a
web browser (it came out without any warnings) and I can see my map
through shp2img and also through a web browser[2]. However, I cannot
see it through Qgis. I am defining my wms server with the following
connection string:
http://pig/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/home/ricardo/Public/public_html/pig/mapfiles/teste.map
('pig' is just the name I gave to my apache virtual host, so that is
why it is there, instead of 'localhost')
I can connect to the server and see the available layers, but when I
select one layer to be loaded Qgis acts like it loaded the layer but I
get only a blank image that is not even showing up in the place that
it was supposed to.
Maybe this question would be better suited for the mapserver
mailing-list but I can see the map through a browser, so I am guessing
that my mistake is in the definition of the wms server inside Qgis...
Please note that I can use the default wms servers that come with Qgis
(the JPL, Lizardtech and DMSolutions) without any problem.
As a side note, I tried the same thing with Kosmo and the result was
the same. I can see the available layers but when I load a layer the
result is just a blank image. Through Kosmo I can even see the legend
of the map, which appears fine, showing my 2 classes and their color..
Thanks for helping me out

Re: [Qgis-user] seting up a wms server problems
Hi Micha, David and list
I have the WMS working fine now! Micha's tip of adding an EXTENT field
at the LAYER level solved it. Thanks a lot!
