[mapserver-users] Mapserfer Wfs and Mapinfo

[Milo van der Linden]

So the problem is in the GetCapabilities.

I copied yours in a xml file.
Then downloaded
<http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/cgi-bin/mswfs_gmap?VERSION=1.0.0&SERVICE=WFS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities>
and saved it as an xml-file too.

Then I installed meld on my ubuntu desktop. There is a compareable
product for windows called winmerge <http://winmerge.org/>

to visualy compare both documents. This is what I found:

dmsolutions has

<XMLSCHEMA/>
    <SFE_XMLSCHEMA/>

where you have

  <XMLSCHEMA/>

and
<GML2/>
<GML3/>

where you have
<GML2/>

Your latlong bounding box says: <LatLongBoundingBox minx="-9.2958e+13"
miny="-1.28383e+30"
maxx="2.27243e+12" maxy="1.28383e+30" />

I am not sure mapinfo is able to handle the "e+12" in the coordinates,
perhaps you should try testing a coordinate with all decimals written out?

Is your EPSG code (28405) one that can be recognized by MapInfo and
transformed into their internal coordinate systems?

These are some hints, I wish you good luck with rest!

Kind regards,
