WFS Problems

[Mark Christiano]

Hi Everyone,

My name is Mark Christiano, I am a research associate at the University
of Rhode Island and we are working toward developing a WFS that conforms
to the OGC standards.  I do a lot with GIS but not so much with web
design.  

Before I jump into getting to the OGC standards, I am having problems
serving out the WFS data.

I have been following the online document "WFS Servers with MapServer"
And my map.doc look very similar to the on-line example.  Except that it
does not work.

I think the problem maybe with the wfs_onlineresource.  (I pretty much
guess on that one)  For example, if I were to use Gaia to view this WFS,
I am not sure what to web address to type in to view the data.

All of the tests to see if the MapServer is working have come back
positive.  The software seems to be configured correctly.

I have pasted my Map File below.  I was hoping someone could give me
some direction.

Thanks a lot!

Mark
