Hello,
I'm new to adding WMS layers to my mapfiles and I'm having difficulties with the layer. Here's my layer definition from my Mapfile:
LAYER
NAME "jpl_landsat7"
TYPE RASTER
STATUS DEFAULT
MAXSCALE 6000000
CONNECTION "http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?"
CONNECTIONTYPE WMS
METADATA
"wms_srs" "EPSG:4326"
"wms_name" "global_mosaic"
"wms_server_version" "1.1.1"
"wms_format" "image/jpeg"
END
END
I get the following error from Mapserver (running shp2img):
msDrawMap(): WMS connection error. Failed to draw WMS layer named 'jpl_landsat7'. This most likely happened because the remote WMS server returned an invalid image, and XML exception or another unexpected result in response to the GetMap request.
Also check and make sure that the layer's connection URL is valid.
I don't know exactly what I did incorrectly, since I checked the URL (even copy/pasted it from the JPL site) and have included all of the required information according to the documentation.
If anyone could offer a suggestion, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
