arcgis8 as wms client

[Frank Broniewski]

Hello list

I have a problem with my brand new Mapserver WMS Client. I use Arcmap
8.3 with the interoperability addon. I work on Windows XP, with the
latest mapserver,php and apache2. When I use the (not public) request


http://148.110.105.146/cgi-bin/wms.exe?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&request
=getcapabilities


I get an error message from Arc that the Server is not responding:
"Unable to access Server".
In the Apache Log I can see the request Arc makes, but this one is a
little bit strange, because Arc adds something to the URL


SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.1.1&request=getcapabilities/servlet/com.esri.esrim
ap.Esrimap?ServiceName=catalog


Look at the stuff after getcapabilities. Does mapserver just not work
with the interop addon or what do I have to do to make it work?

To make sure the WMS does work I tried making the requests in a browser
(firefox) and I get an xml document and my test maplayer also. I also
tried uDIG and there it works also, except the querying stuff, but that
is probably another problem. WFS querying works btw.

I would be glad about any help.

With best whishes from little Luxembourg
