Hi Alexandros,

The values for the BBOX parameter must be in ordre : minx, miny, maxx, maxy

Hope this helps,

Nicolas

Objet : [Mapserver-users] Problem on setting up an WMS server



I have compiled the Mapserver 4.2 beta to support WMS server(succesfully 
tested it !) and GetCapabilities works fine. However when I try thr GetMap 
functionality instead of the image I get an xml file describing the following 
error :

<ServiceException>
msWMSLoadGetMapParams(): WMS server error. Invalid values for BBOX. </ServiceException>

This is the URL i try : 
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mywms.map&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=earth&bbox=-110.0,40.0,-80.0,30.0&VERSION=1.1.1


Could anyone explain me what to do or send me an example test WMS-server map 
file ?

This is mywms.map :

MAP

NAME DEMO


WEB
	METADATA
		"wms_title"	"WMS DEMO SERVER"
		"wms_onlineresource"	"http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mywms.map&"
		"wms_srs"  		"EPSG:4326"
	
	END
END

LAYER

TYPE RASTER
END

END
