[Qgis-user] No GetMap From QGIS Server [Solved]

[bernhard.stroebl at jena.de]

Dear Till, Andreas and Marco,

thank you for your responses, you gave really valuable hints!

I knew the CRS was fine and did not check the port but ticked "ignore 
GetMapUrl" and - magic - it worked like a charm. Investigating further I 
realized that the GetCapabilities XML-document propagates
<GetMap>
   <Format>image/jpeg</Format>
   <Format>image/png</Format>
   <DCPType>
     <HTTP>
       <Get>
         <OnlineResource xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="//10.144.9.51 
/fcgi-bin/test/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?"/>
       </Get>
     </HTTP>
   </DCPType>
</GetMap>
whereas I configured http://10.144.9.51/fcgi-bin/test/qgis_mapserv.fcgi 
in QGIS-Desktop. I would prefer to have a correct URL in 
GetCapabilities. How can I configure this?

And, yes, I am using a metre-based CRS so I keep Marco's third 
possibility in mind until I update.

regards

Bernhard
