Hey list,

I am trying to get WCS working in mapserver 4.8.3; the following is an excerpt from my map file:

  OUTPUTFORMAT
    NAME GTiff
    DRIVER "GDAL/GTiff"
    MIMETYPE "image/tiff"
    IMAGEMODE RGB
    EXTENSION "tif"
  END #OUTPUTFORMAT

  WEB
    #WCS Required
    "wcs_name" "Public OGC Web Service"
    "wcs_service_onlineresource" "http://url"
    "wcs_onlineresource" "http://url/ms?"
    "wcs_srs" "EPSG:4269"
    "wcs_fees" "none"
    "wcs_accessconstraints" "none"
    "wcs_label" "Public WCS"
  END

  LAYER
    NAME "NTS_250k"
    STATUS ON
    TILEINDEX "NTS_250k_Index" #uses a postgis layer
    TILEITEM "location"
    TYPE RASTER

    MAXSCALE 1000000
    MINSCALE 50000

    METADATA
      #WMS Layer
      "wms_title" "250k NTS Maps"
      "wms_abstract" "1:250000 Canadian National Topographic Series"
      "wms_srs" "EPSG:4269"
      "wms_extent" "-134 41 -73 61"

      #WCS Layer
      "wcs_name" "250k NTS Maps"
      "wcs_label" "1:250000 Canadian National Topographic Series"
      "wcs_srs" "EPSG:4269"
      "wcs_extent" "-134 41 -73 61"
      "wcs_resolution" "0.000505538 0.000505538"
      "wcs_size" "1000 1000"
      "wcs_formats" "GTiff"
      "wcs_nativeformat" "Paletted 8-bit png"
      "wcs_bandcount" "1"
    END #METADATA

    PROJECTION
      "init=epsg:4269"
    END #PROJECTION

  END #LAYER


I have tried to include all the required tags but my wcs getcapabilities returns with no mention of my layer/coverage (WMS & WFS in same mapfile works fine). Am I missing something required?

Any ideas or help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

~Angus
