FWD: [mapserver-users] warning in capabilities XML output

Hi,

The warning disappeared when I add metadata 'WMS_GROUP_TITLE' in the layer 
metadata. The new problem is the capabilities XML output is failed to be 
parsed.
The code in my program is:
 
Document xmlDoc = XmlDocument.createXmlDocument(xmlSource)

The 'xmlSource' is the capabilties request UEL. 
It works well with the URL 
"http://wmt.digitalearth.gov/cgi-bin/wmt.cgi?REQUEST=GetCapabilities", which 
is capabilities of the NASA wms map server.

Now I replaced the URL with mine  
"http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=demo.map&REQUEST=GetCapabilities"

I got the error parse message:

SAXException Illegal character or entity reference syntax.
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Illegal character or entity reference syntax.

wms.wmsCatelog.main(wmsCatelog.java:32)

I think there must be something wrong in the capabilities xml output (see 
attached file). I am not sure if it is my fault that cause some problems in 
the xml output. Thanks for your help!

Ding

Hi,

I set up the mapserver as the WMS server. In the capabilities XML output there
was a warning:

WARNING:Mandatory metadata 'WMS_GROUP_TITLE' was missing in this context

I did not found any discription about the metadata 'WMS_GROUP_TITLE' in the
"Mapserver WMS Server How To".  Where should this mandatory metadata be set in
the mapfile?  Thanks for any help!

Regards,
Ding
