Hello, 

I'm currently a student at the University of Lille, I recently gained access to 
some mapfiles so I'm not accustomed to qgis yet. I would like to use a map 
server to share these files inside of my local network. 

I want my server to be as complete as possible so I did some research and I 
found some libraries such as kea, Mr.Sid or ecw which can be built with gdal in 
order to read different files' types. 

I built gdal with kea and Mr.Sid which work on my server, however, when I used 
ecw with the free version of SDK and I completed the installation, I got a 
warning saying that ecw had been skipped in the server and when I added an ecw 
file to a qgis project, my project wasn't working anymore (request timed-out). 

I made a mistake during the installation, ecw has a server supported version 
while I used the free desktop version. Does the skipping issue come from the 
difference between licenses? 

Is it possible to build gdal with ecw and use it in qgis-server legally for 
free? 

If it's not possible and in the hypothesis that I managed to get a license, 
will it be working properly once gdal is built with the correct version of ecw? 

Thanks a lot for your time 

Benjamin Deregnaucourt
