[mapserver-users] GetCoverage pops up to download mapserv.exe

[Mark Phillips]

Virginia,

I don't feel like I understand WCS very well myself --- I'm currently
struggling with getting my own WCS service working the way I need, and am
not having a lot of success.   But for what it's worth, it looks to me like
your issue has to do with projections.  One of your BBOXes seems to be
specified in lon/lat (the numbers
(-66.5079075029609,-84.6440997947261,-30.3257514953085,-83.1977984037033
look like lon/lat values), and the other one looks like values in a
different projection.  I suspect that the problem has something to do with
the projections specified in your mapfile, and/or the projection being
requested in the request.  I'm afraid I can't offer much more specific
advise than that right now, though, because I don't understand the details
myself!
