[Qgis-user] QGIS - cached WMS / WFS service feeds?

[Chris Buckmaster]

And more specifically, this seems to relate only to the QGIS browser panel.

I used the ‘Add Layer(s) from a WM(T)S Server’ option and the layers that do not need authentication only appear, whereas all layers appear in the browser panel.

Sorry I should have stated, I am not including a username and password in the connection details (as I want to see the layers that are not restricted that require a username and password), and I am accessing the connection via http.

How did you add user name and pwd in connection setting? Do you use https or http?

Hi

I have been adding some authentication to my Geoserver instance so around half of the layers served through WMS / WFS are now restricted and require a username and password.

On accessing the services through the WMS / WFS connections in QGIS (2.16.1), I notice that the ones I changed to require a username and password are still showing up (although they cannot be added, they are prompted for a username and password).

It isn’t too much of an issue, but I have set my catalog mode as ‘Hide’ in Geoserver so presumed they would not show up in the layer list, and was wondering if QGIS perhaps caches these connections and stores the layer information that was previously accessible?

Thanks, Chris
