4.8: WFS post body is too short

[Steve Lime]

I'm not sure how it could be but that was the only change between rc3 and the final release that is remotely related to your problem. All that patch does is set a default content-type in case one isn't specified. Since you're setting that value it should behave just as before (unless I made a mistake applying the patch). Have you tried using the version cgiutils.c from 4.8.0 rc3 and recompiling?

Is this related to the fix for bug 1628?

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1628

For reference, I try to post using the following Python script:

import httplib, urllib, string, base64, time

# 1) set variable for request to be posted

request="""
<GetFeature service="WFS" version="1.0.0" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.0.0 WFS-basic.xsd"><Query typeName="postcode"><ogc:Filter><ogc:And><ogc:PropertyIsLike wildCard='*' singleChar='.' escape='!' matchCase='false'><ogc:PropertyName>PC6</ogc:PropertyName><ogc:Literal>8044PC*</ogc:Literal></ogc:PropertyIsLike><ogc:PropertyIsLike wildCard='*' singleChar='.' escape='!' matchCase='false'><ogc:PropertyName>HUISNR</ogc:PropertyName><ogc:Literal>*</ogc:Literal></ogc:PropertyIsLike></ogc:And></ogc:Filter></Query></GetFeature>
"""
# 2) set WFS servername and hostname

# productie
server="/stragisweb/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/stragisweb/htdocs/sites/zwolle/map/stragisweb.map&"
hostname="localhost:8080"

# 3) execute the request

h = httplib.HTTP(hostname)
h.putrequest("POST", server)
h.putheader("Content-type", "text/xml")
h.putheader("Content-length", "%d" % len(request))
h.putheader("Accept", "text/xml")
h.putheader('Host', hostname)
h.endheaders()
h.send(request)
reply, msg, hdrs = h.getreply()

# 4) print the response
print h.getfile().read()

Hi list,

with all WFS GetFeature requests posted to Mapserver 4.8 I get back:

POST body is short

This all works fine with a 48beta2 binary.

What has happened?

D:\ms4w\apps\stragisweb\htdocs\cgi-bin>mapserv -v
MapServer version 4.8.0 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP OUTPUT=SVG
 SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER INPUT=P
OSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE DEBUG=MSDEBUG

Best regards,
Bart
