[mapserver-users] [TinyOWS] Problem with attribute names with dots

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

I made a test layer with dots in feature type name and in an attribute name. The following request leads to an error.

POST http://188.64.1.61/cgi-bin/tinyows HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: text/xml
User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.0-beta1

<wfs:GetFeature xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" service="WFS" version="1.0.0" maxFeatures="1000" outputFormat="GML2"><wfs:Query xmlns:tows="http://www.tinyows.org/" typeName="tows:dot.test"><ogc:PropertyName>tows:nom.dept</ogc:PropertyName><ogc:PropertyName>tows:the_geom</ogc:PropertyName></wfs:Query></wfs:GetFeature>

I am not totally sure but probably this request is valid and it should work.  I am using a little bit old TinyOWS version from April 2012 so the problem is perhaps solved already.

There is some related discussion on the GDAL-dev list
