[Mapserver-users] GetFeature Request problem

[daryljharrison at netscape.net]

I am not able to return any values using the GetFeature request to query values from an MS SQL database. Â I am able to complete a DescribeFeatureType and a GetCapabilities Request but not a GetFeature request??

 

Here: is my .map file;

 

NAME GBOutputs

STATUS ON

SIZE 400 400

EXTENT -180 -90 180 90

END

 Â  Â WFS_SRS "EPSG:26910" Â 

 Â END

END

 

END

 

Here's the output I am receiving:

 

 Â <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 

- <wfs:FeatureCollection xmlns="http://www.ttt.org/myns" xmlns:myns="http://www.ttt.org/myns" xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs ../wfs/1.0.0/WFS-basic.xsd http://www.ttt.org/myns http://localhost/scripts/mapserv.exe?map=wfs_quest.map&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=DescribeFeatureType&TYPENAME=GBOutputs">

- <gml:boundedBy>

 Â <gml:null>inapplicable</gml:null> 

 Â </gml:boundedBy>

 Â </wfs:FeatureCollection>

 

My understanding is that ‘inapplicable’ means that there are no features. If I change the <LayerSRS>value id (though this might be the problem) I receive a GCI timeout error. 

 

I am new to MapServer so any help is appreciated. Let me know if you have any other questions.
