WFS GetFeature works, WFS GetCapabilities doesn't

[Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)]

Hi Jim,

what's your datastore (PostGIS, Oracle, ....)?

If wfs_extent is provided, Mapserver won't try to calculate the extent 
itself.

It might still be useful to file a bug though with some more details if 
this is reproduceable.

Best regards,
Bart
