Hi Bart,<br>
<br>
thank you for your quick answer. <br>
In this case I am stll wondering, what is going wrong with my
mapserver. <br>
The exact mapfile I am using is mentioned at the buttom of this email. <br>
I still use mapserver version 4.2.3 with wfs_client/server and
wms_client/server capabilities under SuSE 9.1 with an Opera and or
Firebird Browser.<br>
The gml file is still stored under the tmp directory. But still nothing
can be seen in the map which is - no matter if I use map or browse
mode! <br>
Would you be able to see the points (as points or lines) in a
webbrowser if you would build up a map file as mentioned below? (of
couse with your path for the tmp directory)?<br>
<br>
best regards <br>
Karsten <br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
yes Mapserver is able to visualize GML data directly.
The tool I mentioned, ogrinfo, is what I use to check the "validity" of
the GML. If ogrinfo can read it, Mapserver can, as it is based on a
similar codebase AFAIK.
Best regards,
Bart

<pre wrap=""> Hi Bart,
dear listmember,
you are absolutely right: There were an inaccuracy in my projection
parameters. And after changing that I am also able to capture the gml
file in my tmp directory and see the coordinates.
But I do have another, much more fundamental question:
Is mapserver not able to visualize gml data directly (for example
transfered points connected as lines in a map layer)?
Let me say it the other way round: For visualisation purposes of gml
files in mapserver is it necessary to convert transfered gml data with
any other (GIS-) tool (e.g. mentioned ogrinfo) before you are able to map
it with mapserver?
best regards
Karsten

Hi, I tried downloading your GML and ogrinfo can read it. Try to
change your projection objects. You now have defined that your WFS
client layer is in epsg:4326 but ofcourse your data is in epsg:32632.
Hope this helps. Best regards, Bart Hi
Yewondwossen Assefa, dear List members, thank you for your answer.
During the last hours I include your hint with the forced request
method: "wfs_request_method" "GET" and I also found something else on
my own: I left the port number (8088) in the URL string: So, in my
case the complet request is called:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://babyz.uni-muenster.de:8088/wfs/WFS">http://babyz.uni-muenster.de:8088/wfs/WFS</a>? This might also be the
reason why you did not work for you, too! When sending above
mentioned request the server sends a complete .gml file which is
stored in my tmp directory. Nevertheless still these coordinates are
not drawn from the mapserver. The beginning of the .gml file sounds
like this: WLIS_UTM32555409.568178104,5650501.14750786
868199.990485413,5934332.6040282555409.5681781038,5934223.853692098

559292.2735897198,5933662.819451575 (... hundreds of coordinate
pairs are following!) the gml file is stored in the
/srv/www/htdocs/tmp directory I am running the mapserver vers: 4.2.3
with wms client/server and wfs client7server support (that it what
the mapserver gives back when typing the ./mapserv -v command!) does
anybody have an idea what could still be wrong? thanks Karsten
schrieb: One other thing you can try is to force mapserver to send Get
request to the wfs server by adding the following metadata on your
layer (default is Post) : "wfs_request_method" "GET". You
should also test the wfs_server by manulally sending some requests to
make sure that that the wfs responsd properly. Does the

returns something for you (I does not work for me but It might me an
internal URL) ? Later, K. Lessing%
