[mapserver-users] Trouble creating WMS

[Bistrais, Bob]

I think I have the problem solved now.  My connection string on the
client Map file was not complete.  I think I have fixed it now.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Trouble creating WMS



I am trying to create a WMS service with MapServer.  I believe I
successfully created the service, because I am able to connect to it and
view it in ArcGIS.  But I tried to create a Map file to view it in
Ka-Map, and also in CGI mode.  Ka-Map appears to be reading the file,
which takes a while, but in the end the Ka-Map screen has no map.
However, the Map Info window does show an accurate extent.  I've gone
through the MapServer documentation, but can't figure out what's wrong.
Below are map map files:
