Hi Miguel,

the error message that you see is a (Minnesota) Mapserver error message.
Somewhere in the style definitions it expects a number (or not).

This url I get from QGIS in debug mode, and gives you your error:

http://idecan2.grafcan.es/ServicioWMS/EspNat?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=152208.544610834447667,2940195.98510535480454564,692329.70807293173857033,3376338.62686863588169217&SRS=EPSG:32628&WIDTH=670&HEIGHT=541&LAYERS=EENN&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png&DPI=96&MAP_RESOLUTION=96&TRANSPARENT=TRUE

Bug if I remove the "&DPI=96&MAP_RESOLUTION=96" part from it, I get a map:

http://idecan2.grafcan.es/ServicioWMS/EspNat?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=152208.544610834447667,2940195.98510535480454564,692329.70807293173857033,3376338.62686863588169217&SRS=EPSG:32628&WIDTH=670&HEIGHT=541&LAYERS=EENN&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/png

I'm not familiar with the exact WMS-standard, but as most WMS servers I
know (and use) can handle these two query parameters from QGIS, I think
it is a Mapserver configuration problem/error. You cannot let QGIS
remove those params I think.
