GetFeatureInfo still not working

Tue Apr 11 13:18:43 EDT 2006

GetFeature is a WFS request; yet I do not see a wfs_name declared within 
your mapping file.

You want something like:

LAYER
  NAME TEST
  METADATA
    "wms_title" "TEST" ##required    
    "gml_include_items" "all"
    "wfs_title" "TEST"        
  END
  ...

That may explain why you are getting an invalid layer name.  When making 
your request ensure that you specify the layer name (TEST and not test).

Your query via a webbrowser should look something like this:
- Correct all pseudo values with the correct ones
- Note that we specify the layer name (TEST) for the TYPENAME parameter.
- Note that, as mentioned above, you must declare your wfs_title name
- Check the results of your GetCapabilities and check that WFS support 
was compiled in.
