[mapserver-users] RE: WFS set up

Hi all

I have checked this all over again and the problem seems to be caused by the
mapserv cgi  build. I have configured it using "--with-wfs" and when done,
the response shows 

WFS Server: -DUSE_WFS_SVR

as expected, confirming this feature to be enabled in the build.

I then run "make" and when testing the supported features with ./mapserv -v,
it shows no support for WFS.  
Also when running the capabilities test, I got this response:

"mapserv(): Web application error. Traditional BROWSE mode requires a
TEMPLATE in the WEB section, but none was provided. msOWSDispatch(): WFS
server error. SERVICE=WFS requested, but WFS support not configured in
MapServer."

Why is this happening?

I am using Mapserver 6.0.1 in a Centos5 environment.   Could this be a bug
in Mapserver or am I missing something here?


Your help is greatly appreciated

Hello

I am setting up a map file for WFS access but I do not get a response when
testing for capabilities, just a 404 error.  Following the guidelines in the
Mapserver documentation, the CGI was compiled using "-with-wfs" and  I am
using this URL to test capabilities:
