[mapguide-users] RE: WMS Data Source?

[Thomas M. Tuerke]

Hi Jason,

 

Just a bit of historical perspective:

 

> … instead of digitalearth (weird choice):

 

Deprecated, perhaps, but not necessarily weird. It’s what the relevant specs call for, and until recently they seemed to work just fine.

 

Fortunately, it looks like we’ve decided to host the DTD files ourselves to eliminate that external dependency.

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/Server/src/Wms/ <https://mapguide.osgeo.org/source/browse/mapguide/branches/1.0.x/MgDev/Server/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&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).
