[Qgis-developer] Installed Qgis on Ubuntu - what do I do next?

if working correctly, the address 

http://localhost/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi

should return

<ServiceExceptionReport version="1.3.0"><ServiceException
code="OperationNotSupported">Please check the value of the REQUEST
parameter</ServiceException></ServiceExceptionReport>

Then just create a project in QGIS (use absolute paths) and in the
project properties configure the parameters in the "WMS server" tab.

Create a folder in

/usr/lib/cgi-bin/

and copy into it your QGIS project and a copy of qgis_mapserv.fcgi

your server address will be


http://localhost/cgi-bin/myprojectfolder/qgis_mapserv.fcgi


cheers
