[mapguide-users] checking wms connections

[joanne cook]

Thanks, but I think it's sorted anyway. My problem with OpenLayers was something far more prosaic (folder paths). Next stop: wfs...

Joanne,
It appears that your problem is related to this topic discussed about a week
ago.  See this link:

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the quick response. The GetCapabilities request gives me what
seems to be a perfectly valid xml file (attached, hopefully). At first I had
a lot of trouble with the attached wmsclient.html, but then I realised that
on it's way over the email it had been butchered by network antivirus
scanners. All the form code had been prefixed defang_html, and the
javascript had been commented out. Once I'd resolved that, then I got a
valid GetMap request from both the Sheboygan and my own data. Thanks!

Now I just have to figure out how to get it working with OpenLayers- which
still doesn't seem to work.

All the best

Jo

What do you get from this?

http://localhost:8008/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?REQUEST=GetCapabilitie
s&SERVICE=WMS&FORMAT=text/xml

Also attached is an email from Thomas Tuerke from July that has handy little
wms client test page in it.  I hope it comes through on the email list.

Hi All,

I am trying to make a wms connection to some layers in my MapGuide
OpenSource 1.0.2 map. I can't connect to my own, and assume there's some
kind of problem with the conversion from a different coordinate system, as
seems to have been discussed at length on this list, so I thought I'd better
try the Sheboygan data first. All I am trying to do is connect to the data
in Firefox 2, using the following URL:

http://localhost:8008/mapguide/mapagent/mapagent.fcgi?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.

1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=Samples/Sheboygan/Layers/Buildings&FORMAT=image/pn
g

This gives me the following message:


An unclassified exception occurred.

An unclassified exception occurred. Exception occurred in method
MgHttpWmsGetMap.Execute at line 204 in file
c:\build_tux_area\mgdev_opensource\web\src\httphandler\HttpWmsGetMap.cpp
 
If I remove any of the parameters I get an xml document back that tells me I
don't have all the parameters I need. A GetCapabilities request seems to
validate as far as I can tell...
The end result of all of this is that I want to be able to use my MapGuide
Open Source data in OpenLayers, but needless to say that doesn't work at all
at the moment either!
 
Many thanks
 
Jo
