Hi,
Still no much progress on it, is there anyone who faced the similar problem and got the solution?
Thanks.
 Regards,
Kajod

Thanks for valuable response.
I tried the solution suggested by you with putting NO for wfs_use_default_extent_for_getfeature. But still I can see default spatial filter in query.
I even tried with passing BBOX (which I don't want) in filter, but it's taking the default one...it's wierd :(
I'll try to get SQL for sample data and will share if I can.
Thanks.

Regards,
Kajod

Hi,

When it comes to extra spatial filter, there is a brand new metadata item for switching it off. See http://mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html


wfs_use_default_extent_for_getfeature
    (Optional, since MapServer 7.0.4) Whether the MAP.EXTENT should be used in request to datasources in the absence of other spatial filter. This is the default behaviour, but this might affect performance in some use cases. In those cases, setting this item to NO will avoid he default spatial filter to be appended to the request. This is only implemented for OGR datasources. 

However, with PostGIS the && query is fast. The weird part in your log
wkb_geometry &&
 ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((-0.999462804873474
 -1.00102606014116,-0.999462804873474
 -1.00102606014116,-0.999462804873474
 -1.00102606014116,-0.999462804873474
 -1.00102606014116,-0.999462804873474
 -1.00102606014116))

means that the layer extent is not set correctly or Mapserver can't get is correctly from PostGIS which means data error on that side. For sure using the non-existing keyword wfs_boundingbox is not right. See what can be used from http://mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html.

When you play with spatial filters I recommend to start by using the native SRS for the feature type in filters. Non-native SRS in filter should be transformed by the server but it is error prone. Your filter is also also a little bit fuzzy. gml:coordinates belongs to GML2 and was removed from GML2. But you are using service version 2.0 that defaults to GML3. Is the meaning that your filter is GML2 or GML3? That is a big difference because in the first case the axis order of EPSG:4326 coordinates is longitude-latitude but in the latter it is latitude-longitude. Do you search near the equator or from somewhere in Europe?

 <PropertyName>wkb_Geometry</PropertyName>
  <gml:Point srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326">
  <gml:coordinates>0.112034,53.567972</gml:coordinates>
  </gml:Point>

One more thing, "wfs_srs" metadata takes only one SRS, not a list.

If you send SQL for CREATE TABLE and for inserting one polygon into the table, and WFS filter you are using in your trials I thing I could find some time for testing.

Hi Kajod,

If you are using PostGIS, then I would set the 'wfs_extent' metadata at
the layer level of the mapfile (it looks like you tried that, with an
odd 'wfs_boundingbox' parameter): please review the syntax of the
wfs_extent parameter at
http://www.mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html#layer-object

Then, next step is always to execute a GetCapabilities request and go
through that response and make sure there are no "WARNING" messages, and
make the changes in the mapfile to remove those warnings if necessary...
