[OpenLayers-Users] WFS GetFeature on Mapserver doesn't work

Wed Apr 7 10:43:40 EDT 2010

Dear Friends,

I am making a WFS GetFeature request on Mapserver.
My url is:

http://localhost:81/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/Delhi/Delhi1_wfs.map&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GETfeature
&REQUEST=getfeature&typename=Adminbndy3&Filter=<Filter><PropertyIsEqualTo><PropertyName>Polygon_nm</PropertyName><Literal>Ghaziabad</Literal></PropertyIsEqualTo></Filter>

but I get the error

<ServiceExceptionReport version="1.2.0"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ogc
http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.0.0/OGC-exception.xsd">

<ServiceException code="InvalidParameterValue" locator="typename">

msWFSGetFeature(): WFS server error. TYPENAME 'adminbndy3' doesn't exist in
this server.  Please check the capabilities and reformulate your request.

Can some one correct my Getfeature info url so that I get to retrieve the
desired info from .shp files.My shapefile has the name Adminbndy3 so I have
the same name as typename.

Basically I have created a WMS layer and trying to create this layer atop
that WMS layer so as to show  a different color for a particular feature.
I following the example in the link

http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/Highlighting
http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/Highlighting 
(the first one)

Does anybody have a working example of any the methods for highlighting
given in the above link.
If yes pls send it across.

Thanks for your attention & efforts.
