[mapserver-users] Re: GetFeature find data with GET, not with POST

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

I will need to play a bit with the data and see if I can decrease the size of source layer and still see the failure. What I have now as source is one single shapefile with 1.1 million polygons and it is odd that from some areas Mapserver does find data. It looks like the problem occur on dense areas with lots of polygons. I thought first that it must be due to old or invalid index but the situation is the same with a brand new .qix file and if I do not .qix at all.

Hi,

Tried to use

 CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
 CONNECTION "path_to_shape"

Instead of
DATA "path_to_shape"

Now both GET and POST works with BBOX. Something seems to be wrong or undocumented with the native shapefile access. Is this worth filing some kind of ticket?

Hi,

This GetFeature finds data from MS 6.0.1 (MS4W)


service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=getfeature&typename=peltolohkot&BBOX=280009,6696093,282161,6698297,EPSG:3067<https://ilmakuva.mmm.fi/cgi-bin/wfs_test?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=getfeature&typename=peltolohkot&BBOX=280009,6696093,282161,6698297,EPSG:3067>

This POST request which should find the sama data does not find anything:

Mapserver log file does not tell anything interesting, just this
msQueryByFilter(): Search returned no results. No matching record(s) found.

Data is as shapefile. I have the same dataset in PostGIS on another computer and with that service the filter above does find features. Could this possibly have something to do with the shapefile/PostGIS difference?
