Kevin, 

MapServer 4.4 is very old.  I believe that much of the work and
improvements on WMS/WFS started around version 4.6  

You should definitely upgrade to at least 4.10 or 5.0.  

David.

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Esri trying a wms GetFeatureInfo from
mapserver



 Hi all  

I am sure this has been hashed about before.

I am using mapserver 4.4.1 a client is using ESRI product GisServer.  My
capabilities document does not list text/xml as a feature response, but
the client's getfeatureinfo request always come across with a
&INFO_FORMAT=text/xml.  The response from my mapserv can be seen at
https://glfc.cfsnet.nfis.org/mapserver/cgi-bin/wms_layer02100?SERVICE=WM
S&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&LAYERS=g6181&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:432
6&BBOX=-145,12.4713876967096,-50,117.52861230329&FORMAT=image/png&HEIGHT
=773&WIDTH=699&TRANSPARENT=FALSE&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&QUERY_LAYERS=g6181&INF
O_FORMAT=text/xml&FEATURE_COUNT=50&X=351&Y=497&EXCEPTIONS=application/vn
d.ogc.se_xml

The client seems to have no idea how to controll the software from their
end so I am tring to find out if if I can provide an acceptable
response.  Does mapserver support INFO_FORMAT=text/xml and if so at what
version?  If not I will try to intercept the request and format a
correct response, but I hate doing something that has already been done
before.  

Thanks in advance
