[mapserver-users] MapCache "missing a service" error

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

Great, then you have made it.  The message means that your URL connects Mapcache as WMS service but the message is missing the compulsory WMS parameters SERVICE and REQUEST because you only did

http://192.168.56.101/mapcache/

You will see the WMS 1.1.0 capabilities document by using
http://192.168.56.101/mapcache?service=wms&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities
and you should be able to use your service and see the map layers as maps with some WMS client like OpenJUMP or QGis. If the demo is installed you can also test with http://192.168.56.101/mapcache/demo/wms

You need to pass the path_info from nginx to mapcache. Use something like

  fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;

in your location block.
