[mapserver-users] Mapserver as WFS 1.1.0 client

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

Based on other input from Daniel Morissette I think it's pretty safe to say that MapServer only supports WFS layers with versions 0.0.14 and 1.0.0. Sorry... I don't know what it would take to extend things to 1.1.0 though (patches welcome).

Hello Steve,

Thank you for your answer. I tried setting to GET and this is what i got:
"<ows:Exception exceptionCode="NoApplicableCode" 
locator="mapserv"><ows:ExceptionText>msWFSGetFeature(): WFS server error. ms_error->code not found
msWFSLayerWhichShapes(): WFS connection error. WFS request produced unexpected output (junk?) for layer HK.</ows:ExceptionText></ows:Exception>"

The message about the wrong version is not showing up.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Here's my layer definition:
"LAYER
     NAME "HK"
     TYPE Point
     UNITS METERS
     CONNECTION "http://localhost:8081/geoserver/wfs?"
     CONNECTIONTYPE WFS
     #EXTENT 618740 5962679 1737924 7376186 does not seem to matter
     STATUS ON
     METADATA
       "wfs_version"    "1.1.0"
       "wfs_title"    "HK"
       "wfs_connectiontimeout" "60"
       "wfs_typename"    "Data:HK"
       "wfs_maxfeatures"       "500"
       "wfs_request_method"   "GET"
       "gml_include_items" "all"
       "wfs_title"    "HK"
       "wfs_srs"        "EPSG:3857"
       "gml_featureid"     "GCOA_ID"
       "wfs_enable_request" "*"
     END # METADATA
     PROJECTION
       "init=epsg:3857"
     END # PROJECTION
      CLASS
       NAME "Koordinaten"
       STYLE
         COLOR 190 87 66
         OUTLINECOLOR 255 0 0
         SIZE 4
         SYMBOL "circle_filled"
       END # STYLE
     END # CLASS
   END # LAYER"

The request is:
"http://localhost:8082/wfs?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.1.0&&request=GetFeature&TYPENAME=HK&local&SRS=EPSG:3857&bbox=793732,6570204,793765,6570228"


Thank you

Cheers

Lars
