[Qgis-user] QGISWebserver and PostGIS-Layer

[Bernhard Ströbl]

Hi Albin,

the URL seems to lack the BBOX parameter (I think this is a necessary 
parameter in a GetMap request)
Can you access the maps through QGIS desktop?
What happens if you send a GetCapabilities request:
http://myserver/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
