Hi,

Sorry, I forgot to tell that it is SRS in v. 1.1.1 but CRS in v. 1.3.0. But it is actually told here
http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html

If you are busy, try these before starting to do your homeworks.

http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=-180,-90,180,90&SRS=EPSG:4326&WIDTH=953&HEIGHT=480&LAYERS=bluemarble,cities&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=true

http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=-90,-180,90,180&CRS=EPSG:4326&WIDTH=953&HEIGHT=480&LAYERS=bluemarble,cities&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=true

Hi,

If you use WMS 1.3.0 you must use Nothing-Easting axis order with EPSG:4326.
Stay with WMS 1.1.1 of flip the coordinates in your request. Search "WMS
1.3.0 axis order" and you will find reading for the rest of the day.

Greetings,

I have what I hope is a simple issue.

I have a working mapfile in which I have setup WMS.  When I test with
GetCapabilities, everything seems to return fine (mostly, see below).
However, when I test with GetMap, I just get a blank image (set to the
background color I have in the map file).

One odd thing, though, with the GetCapabilities results is that the bounding
box coordinates reverse the X and Y:

<BoundingBox CRS="EPSG:4326" minx="33.6158" miny="-103.002" maxx="37.0023"
maxy="-94.4307"/>

However, the GeographicBoundingBox is correct:

   <EX_GeographicBoundingBox>
        <westBoundLongitude>-103.002</westBoundLongitude>
        <eastBoundLongitude>-94.4307</eastBoundLongitude>
        <southBoundLatitude>33.6158</southBoundLatitude>
        <northBoundLatitude>37.0023</northBoundLatitude>
    </EX_GeographicBoundingBox>

I am running this on my local machine so I am attaching the sample mapfile
and the GetCapabilities results, and including the GetMap example I am using
which is returning the blank image.

Example:

GetMap

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/OK_TEST/OK_Counties.map&
SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=Counties&CRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=
-103.002,33.6158,-94.4307,37.0023&WIDTH=800&HEIGHT=300&FORMAT=image/png&STYL
ES=&TRANSPARENT=TRUE

GetCapabilities

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/OK_TEST/OK_COUNTIES.map&
SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities


Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Todd
