[mapserver-users] WCS GET_COVERAGE delivers corrupted geotiff

[John Cartwright]

 Thanks Frank,  I finally realized last night that I was getting a
multipart mime response and that was the problem.

I was using 1.1.1 because it was my understanding that there was a 1px
image shift between version 1.0 and 1.1 (see thread at
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.mapserver.user/41599).  I
didn't see any ticket filed on this issue - are you aware of it?

Thanks again for your help!
