[mapserver-users] RE: [ms4w-users] WMS problems in ESRI clients

[Fischer, Brian]

Has anyone found a solution to this problem?  I am having the exact same
problem.  I'm using MS4W 2.3.0 with MapServer 5.2 and IIS 6.0. 

 

WMS Get Capabilities URL: 
http://douglas.houstoneng.com/cgi-bin2/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/GeoMOO
SE/douglas/maps_douglas/douglas_ogc.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUES
T=GetCapabilities

This is proof it works as a MapServer CGI request:

http://douglas.houstoneng.com/cgi-bin2/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/GeoMOO
SE/douglas/maps_douglas/douglas_ogc.map&mode=map&layers=parcelwms 

 

This is proof it works as an OGC WMS GetMap request:

http://douglas.houstoneng.com/cgi-bin2/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/GeoMOO
SE/douglas/maps_douglas/douglas_ogc.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUES
T=GetMap&LAYERS=parcelwms&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:26915&BBOX=276595,5065831,342
552,5113395&WIDTH=600&HEIGHT=500&FORMAT=image/png 

 

ArcGIS 9.3 recognizes the service but displays a blank image. It even
will bring in the legend with the right symbology.

Greetings, I have a new MS4W server running with IIS, using the newest
MS4W on Windows 2003 server.  It works fine if I look at it in QGIS.  If
I consume it in ArcMap (I tried v 9.0 and 9.3) there is no output image,
just white.  My layers turn on/off at appropriate scales, but nothing is
there.  The WMS is just 3 levels of orthoimagery for part of Maine.

The URL is 
http://geolibportaltest.maine.gov/mapserver/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:/m
s4w/apps/wms/nw_doqs.map&
<http://geolibportaltest.maine.gov/mapserver/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:/
ms4w/apps/wms/nw_doqs.map&>  

I have a prototype box (which is internal to our WAN and so readers you
won't be able to see it) which has the same exact data and mapfile, but
it runs on Apache (the one distributed with MS4W) on Windows XP, and the
service works fine in ArcGIS 9.0 and 9.3.

My map file is shown below. 

Any suggestions?
