Good morning,

thank you, for your answer!
I set up a wms-time service with a PostGIS database, too.
It works fine, as well as the shapefile service.
Only with the mySQL database I get a *white* result.
Does anyone know if there is a general problem with wms-time and spatial mySQL data?

Unfortunately, the wider extent doesn´t help.

My request:

Hi,

my humble suggestion is inline.
I have done WMS Time successfully for PostGIS.

I don't think so,

This filter should be added by Mapserver automagically when you have 
WMS_TIME* in METADATA field.

You extent should maybe be more "wide".
 From http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_time.html
/value/ - a single value. This is not directly supported in MapServer 
but there is an easy workwound by specifying the same value as min and max.

I have always used extents similar to the example in the docs:

"wms_timeextent"  "2004-01-01/2004-02-01"


If this is not helping, you should attach (important parts of) mapfile 
and URL request.

kind regards
