[mapserver-users] mapcache config troubles, "Tile parameter not set"

Wed Apr 29 00:23:38 PDT 2015

I guess you're using an older version which doesn't check the "type" attribute and defaults to WMS. The "mode=tile" parameter is part of your URL and not build by MapCache. Everything else is an ordinary WMS request for a 5x5 metatile with 10px buffer: 5*256 + 2*10 = 1300. 
So simly omit the mode parameter from the URL and let MapCache do it's WMS request. It will then itself respond using the requested tile service interface.

That request generates the following internal request, from Mapcache to Mapserver. It’s pretty close; the layers are right, but not the SERVICE, BBOX, WIDTH,
 and HEIGHT parameters.

GET /cgi-bin/mapserv?mode=tile&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&STYLES=&BBOX=-20135347.738994,-7611905.024751,-7416226.232341,5107216.481902&WIDTH=1300&HEIGHT=1300&FORMAT=image/png&SRS=EPSG:3857&MAP=/data/web/www/mapserver/sites.map&LAYERS=property_pt%20property_poly

Mapcache.xml:
