[mapserver-users] feature_id not found as wfs feature_id in a spatialite db

The issue is that PK_UID is recognized by OGR as the field for the OGR 
featureid and thus not exposed as an item to MapServer. One way to workaround 
this is to make the PK_UID field available as a regular field with a SELECT

For example, like this :

  NAME towns
  DATA "SELECT ROWID as msFID, * FROM towns"
  CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
  CONNECTION "./data/db.sqlite"
  METADATA
    "ows_title"         "towns"
    "wfs_featureid"     "msFID"
    "gml_exclude_items" "msFID"
    "gml_include_items" "all"
    "gml_types"         "auto"
  END
