[Qgis-user] WFS rendering issues

[Richard Duivenvoorde]

Hi Paul,

Is this WFS by any chance (to make) public?

Because what you describe is funny, as Geoserver should return the same data (GML probably) as a WFS response, not depending on the (geoserver) datasource.

Another option to share: if you take the WFS-requests from the network logger, paste them in a browser, get the (gml) response and then share (with me or here) the GML that is returned by geoserver (would be nice to have all three versions).
Note that saving that gml to your disk QGIS(GDAL) should also be able to open it as GML vector data.

FYI: on one of my workplaces I have the Oracle/Geoserver/QGIS working for ages :-)

Silly maybe, but can it be a crs issue? Can you try to zoom to the oracle/mssql layers and see if they are on other parts of the world?

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde

I’m aware that this request may sound like a MSSQL or GeoServer issue but I think it is more about understanding what QGIS is expecting. It may be that I need to change something in the other applications but the key here is that as far as I can tell I’m getting valid WFS from GeoServer in all cases but QGIS is only drawing it if it comes from PostGIS.
