[mapguide-users] RE: WMS Data Source?

[Andy Morsell]

Just to clarify, this dependency on the dtd is not on the WMS consuming end,
it is on the WMS serving end.  It just happened that I was trying to serve
WMS from one MGOS server and consume it on another.  I updated those 3 files
via SVN and it did fix the problem from my serving MGOS machine.  
 
I ran some other tests with other WMS servers and others also depend on the
digitalearth.gov reference and will also fail.  Such as:
http://www.geographynetwork.com/servlet/com.esri.wms.Esrimap  But others are
OK, such as: http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/cgi-bin/mswms_gmap

This is a known issue:
 
 <https://mapguide.osgeo.org/servlets/Scarab?id=MG434>
https://mapguide.osgeo.org/servlets/Scarab?id=MG434
 
It looks like you may be able to fix it by grabbing the three fixed files
from SVN:
 
 
<https://mapguide.osgeo.org/source/browse/mapguide/branches/1.0.x/MgDev/Serv
er/src/Wms/>
https://mapguide.osgeo.org/source/browse/mapguide/branches/1.0.x/MgDev/Serve
r/src/Wms/
 
or just updating the AWD templates on your site to hit OGC instead of
digitalearth (weird choice):
 <http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.0.0/capabilities_1_0_0.dtd>
http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.0.0/capabilities_1_0_0.dtd

 <http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.0/capabilities_1_1_0.dtd>
http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.0/capabilities_1_1_0.dtd
 

 <http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.1/capabilities_1_1_1.dtd>
http://schemas.opengis.net/wms/1.1.1/capabilities_1_1_1.dtd
 
respectively, for the three templates.
 
I recall something similar with LiteView in MapGuide 6.x, and I think I had
to repoint to a local DTD.  Bit fuzzy on that though; I gave up on LiteView
pretty quickly.

There is an OSGeo FDO WMS data provider for this purpose
(https://mapguide.osgeo.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=100
<https://mapguide.osgeo.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=100&expand
> &expand
Folder=100&folderID=0).  However, I just tried working with it and there
appears to be a problem today.  If you try to use it to define a data
connection, and then enter a WMS server name and press the Test Connection
button, you will get an error

"An exception occurred in FDO component.
XML Document parse error at line 8 column 3: An exception occurred!
Type:NetAccessorException, Message:The host/address 'www.digitalearth.gov'
could not be resolved "

It appears that the FDO provider is looking up a DTD at digitalearth.gov and
their web site is currently down (at least on my end).
