[mapserver-users] mapserver as a wms server for arcgis client

Can you confirm it works OK with other clients, like QGIS?

I generally use QGIS for testing, as I can easily & simultaneously open the shapefiles, imagery, postgis tables, etc as well as the WMS/WFS outputs to ensure all is doing exactly what it should.

We are using mapserver to provide layers to clients using ESRI so it does work.

I would also note that mapserver 5.2 is a bit dated now, & wms v1.3.0 is the current version which you do not show support for.

Hi, 
I'm hoping someone can help me identify why my wms layers in arcgis are coming up blank. 

Here is my mapfile:

Am I missing something vital? I am able to add the WMS layers in arcmap, but the canvas is blank. 
 
Thanks in advance.
