I assume you mean that the GetFeature request works well whne tested in 
a web browser?
Could it be that there is a firewall between your client app and your 
WFS server?  That could explain why your browser can connect but your 
MapServer can't.

Hi Daniel, 
Yes the GetFeature works well in a web browser. Client & server are on the same box. I'm using Tomcat 4.1 and I've made a test with the same project on Apache and it works well ... I don't know what's going wrong with Tomcat !!!

Any ideas ?

Thanks for your help.
