[Qgis-developer] redirect loop detected error when connecting wms

[Ziegler Stefan]

Hi Jürgen

Thanks. I did not mean QGIS browser but a "normal" browser like Firefox etc. I never get an error message when I request GetCapabilities from Firefox/Chrome etc. So I thougt it could be some Qt-http-classes thing.

Regards
Stefan
