Hi Albin,

Yes - cascading WMS are supported by QGIS server. I use this quite extensively.

If it fails on your server one would have to investigate - could be any networking or proxy issues or maybe the server is a different QGIS version than QGIS Desktop. From QGIS 1.8 to master there have been changes in the raster provider. Projects created in QGIS Desktop version 1.8 do not necessarily work in QGIS master on the server. It is advisable to use the same version on the server and the Desktop creating the files. This is normally not a big issues, but with the raster provider changes I experienced this problem.

Hello List!

So, I have QGIS Server up and running, now, finally :-)

And now a new question: Is it possible to have a layer coming from
another WMS-Server in a QGIS Server project (I think a.k.a. cascading
layer)? I set up a QGIS Desktop project with this WMS - layer,
everything ok here, but QGIS Server ignores it after updating the
map/project file and adding it in the request, is does not show up...
The projection is the same for all layers.

A little bit of background: I am working/hacking on an intranet
web-application to batch-produce maps (based on PostgreSQL/PostGIS
Data) for non-GIS colleagues and would need that WMS layer as a
backdrop/base...

Googling around a bit I did not find anything about this topic...

Thanks in advance,
Albin
