[mapserver-users] WMS in Google Earth

[Alexandre Dube]

Back with my local WMS on GE problem.  I think it has something to do 
with the wms_onlineresource in WEB METADATA.

I downloaded the gmap datas, which are already in GE as the last WMS 
service available, to be able to test locally what is already working on 
the internet.  At first, it worked in GE.  Then, I noticed that the 
wms_onlineresource was set to :
    "http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/cgi-bin/mswms_gmap?"
which seemed wrong to me, because my other map doesn't exist on the 
internet, only locally.

So I changed it to :
    
"http://127.0.0.1:port/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/my/local/path/gmap75_wms.map&"
and then I doesn't work anymore...  also tried :
    "http://127.0.0.1:port/cgi-bin/mapserv?"
no result...

I must be close the the answer.  I have searched a lot over the internet 
but I haven't found anything yet.  Any hints ?
