[mapserver-users] create wms service with mapserver

Mon Nov 23 03:32:51 PST 2015

There is nothing that is obviously wrong in your mapfile. Some suggestions:

-          Add debug 5 into your layer

-          Try to get a map with shp2img

-          Convert data from PostGIS into shapefile and use that as source data.

It seems that you have changed something in between because first you wrote “in the browser when i paste the url "http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c://ms4w/apps/webgis/wms.map&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities"

Now you write that this is the URL
(http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?mode=map&map=c://ms4w/apps/webgis/mp/wms.map),

When i tried to open that mapserv.exe file it is displaying as "the file or directory is corrupted or unreadable".

if i open the same file as mode=map (http://localhost:8085/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?mode=map&map=c://ms4w/apps/webgis/mp/wms.map), it is displaying the map

MS4W is ready for WMS but please tell us first what do you see when you opened the mapserv.exe file with a text editor.

MapServer version 5.2.1

I guess that something went wrong but saving mapserv.exe into file and reading it with text editor is the right thing to do. Jörg and Jeff should have noticed that the GetCapabilities request was made without &VERSION which means the highest version 1.3.0 for Mapserver and then the normal GetCapabilities document will be sent with mime type that most browsers understand. Try it:
http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities

I may be wrong but I would rather believe that mapserv.exe contains an error message about unknown projection epsg:900913. Use epsg:3857 instead.  And I prefer using an explicit parameter &VERSION= always instead of relying on what version comes from the lottery when version in not defined in the query.

Hi,

nothing went wrong. The problem under windows is, that apache(?) names the capabilities-document mapserv.exe. Save it, open it in an editor and see your capabilities!

Perhaps anyone reading this can tell us how to configure the windows-instrallation, so that the capabilities-doc is not named .exe? I don't know.
