[mapserver-users] msWFSGetStoredQuery(): WFS server error. Cannot open file

[Passmore, James H.]

I'm configuring a WFS to provide some stored queries, and following https://mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html?highlight=wfs_storedqueries

In my WEB > METADATA  section, if I use:

"wfs_storedqueries" "CommodityByYearStoredQuery"

and an inlinedef either directly like:

"wfs_CommodityByYearStoredQuery_inlinedef" '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><StoredQueryDescription xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml/3.2" id="CommodityByYearStoredQuery"><Title>Commodity by year</Title><Abstract>Query by commodity and year, for example Bauxite in 2013</Abstract><Parameter name="commodity" type="xs:string"/><Parameter name="year" type="xs:string"/><QueryExpressionText isPrivate="false" language="urn:ogc:def:queryLanguage:OGC-WFS::WFS_QueryExpression" xmlns:ms="http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/mapserver" returnFeatureTypes="ms:mintell_centroids"><Query xmlns:fes="http://www.opengis.net/fes/2.0" typeNames="ms:mintell_centroids"><fes:Filter><fes:And><fes:PropertyIsEqualTo><fes:PropertyName>commodity</fes:PropertyName><fes:Literal>${commodity}</fes:Literal></fes:PropertyIsEqualTo><fes:PropertyIsEqualTo><fes:PropertyName>year</fes:PropertyName><fes:Literal>${year}</fes:Literal></fes:PropertyIsEqualTo></fes:And></fes:Filter></Query></QueryExpressionText></StoredQueryDescription>'

or as an INCLUDE like:

INCLUDE "storedQry/wfs_CommodityByYearStoredQuery_inlinedef.map"

My stored query works

If I use "wfs_CommodityByYearStoredQuery_filedef" "storedQry/comm-by-year.map"  with the same content as used in the inlinedef I get an error, either

DescribeStoredQueries / ListStoredQueries

<!--
WARNING: Definition for stored query CommodityByYearStoredQuery missing
-->

or GetFeature

msWFSGetResolvedStoredQuery20(): WFS server error. Unknown stored query id: CommodityByYearStoredQuery msWFSGetStoredQuery(): WFS server error. Cannot open storedQry/comm-by-year.map


Is this a bug or have I got something wrong with the filedef option?

It doesn't seem to be a permissions issue, because the INCLUDE for the inlinedef is in the same folder and works


I'm running MapServer version 7.4.0 on Windows.
