Hi Bob,

Looking into to he capabilities of the first one:

http://atlas.agr.gc.ca/arcgis/services/ImageServices/IMG_MB_ORTHO_50CM_2009/ImageServer/WMSServer?request=getCapabilities

You can see that the online resource is pointing to:
  http://nlwis-agprd0p.agr.gc.ca/arcgis....
which is for you/me not available (but seems to be an internal address
or so??)

In QGIS output, I can see it tries to pull this url:

http://nlwis-agprd0p.agr.gc.ca/arcgis/services/ImageServices/IMG_MB_ORTHO_50CM_2009/ImageServer/WMSServer?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=48.95022000000000162,-101.71716499999999428,52.39524999999999721,-97.75096700000000283&CRS=EPSG:4326&WIDTH=808&HEIGHT=703&LAYERS=IMG_MB_ORTHO_50CM_2009&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/jpeg&DPI=96&MAP_RESOLUTION=96&FORMAT_OPTIONS=dpi:96

BUT: a lot of WMS servers are not configured ok, so QGIS has an option
to ignore the url's in the capabilities, but actually use the same host
as the capabilities come from:

In the WMS connection parameters, click the two check boxes:

[v] Ignore GetMap/GetTile URI reported in capabilities
[v] Ignore GetFeatureInfo URI reported in capabilities

THEN I get a map \o/

You can also contact them, and ask them to configure their wms with the
right online resource url ( and ask them to move from arcgis to
qgisserver ;-) ).

Regards,


Richard Duivenvoorde
