[Mapserver-users] WFS client temporary files

Hi all,

I'm using the WFS client feature of Mapserver in order to use Mapserver to
render my geodata.

The URL I have to connect to is rather long and I seem to be experiencing a
problem with that. The entire URL string forms the filename of the .tmp.gml
file in my /tmp/ folder, and this seems to be too long for Windows to handle
- over 255 characters long.

The result is that I get a "HTTPOpenFile" error in my browser window.
Exactly the same query with a shorter URL works fine.

Am I barking up the wrong tree or is this a fair diagnosis? If so, any
suggestions for fixing it, other than the obvious of using a shorter URL?
;-)

Cheers, Matt.
