[mapserver-users] WFS error

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

It is not totally clear for me where the data for the layer local_priority_projects are. Do you perhaps have it locally on your server?  Now it looks like you have set up a circular WFS service at www.tarpogis.org which is trying to read and cascade WFS data from the same service at www.tarpogis.org.

When creating WFS service I suggest to test is first with WMS.  When you can see the layer as a map through WMS you know that reading the source data is successful.  After that you can continue to WFS.

can't find a reference for online.  I'm attempting to set up a WFS, but I
keep on getting this error spit back at me when doing a getfeature:

A getcapabilities request comes back fine, but not a getfeature request.
>From what I've read it looks as though the getfeature query is returning a
null set.  I'm not sure what is wrong, but my bet is that it's some sort of
beginner's mistake.  Any help would be most appreciated.  Here's the
