[Mapserver-users] WMS client access in tutorials

[Alexandros Chimarios]

I tried your link in my browser and the NASA WMS server returned an XML file 
with the following error : "Required key 'bbox' is missing."

A complete WMS GetMap request should at least contain the following params as 
in this example :

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mywms.map&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=country&BBOX=-180,-90.0,180.0,60.0&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=600&VERSION=1.1.1

For more details please have a look on MapServer WMS Server HOWTO.

Regards, 

	Alexandros
