Indeed, adding
?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
returns valid results.
curl from the same server downloads a valid image.
Unclear therefore why the layers are shown in desktop and not in the
server. Could it be that they do not allow wms cascading?
I worked around this by taking data directly from wms, without passing
from qgis server, but it would be nice to understand this behaviour.
Thanks Richard for the plugin, very useful.
Cheers.
