[Mapbender-users] Problem emit WMS service of the LDS NRW

[Armin Retterath]

Hello Ralph,
you will have a problem because your php5 modul has no possibility to
get the xml document. You need a proxy load capabilities from internet. 
Therefor you may specifiy another type of connection in the
mapbender.conf file. I think till now you'll have specified http
(define("CONNECTION", "http");) and your Server has a proxy connetion to
the www.
Things you have to do:
install php5-curl (if not yet installed)
uncomment the line
define("CONNECTION", "curl");
in your mapbender.conf, comment out the line for http connection and set
your proxy configuration like:
define("CONNECTION_PROXY", "IP");
define("CONNECTION_PORT", "port");
restart your apache2.

After this mapbender should open external Capabilities. After this your
problem would be that you cannot load the local Capabilities Dokuments
(maybe from localhost or servers in your intranet). It depends on the
possibilities of your proxy which nets are declared. There is no way to
define an exception as its done in the configuration of e.g. firefox. 
The simple solution for your problem would be to load the Capabilities
with your Browser and store them local. After this you load them by
LoadWMS with a local path. If your apache has the rights to read the
documents, all would be ok and you don't have any other problems. 
I think this is much easier than installing moduls and configuring
mapbender to use curl.
