But notice that there is actually a difference: all the debug info goes to stderr, and the "listening" message goes to stdout. You can actually silence all QGIS server internal debugging and logging info by redirecting stderr to a file or /dev/null, you will get only the output from the application which goes to stdout.

Ok it is there, but just buried beneath all other output...

YES, so it run's by default on port localhost:8000 And it is also working (tested) on Windows: Saving a simple project into c:\tmp Starting qgis_mapserver.exe And in browser I go to: http://localhost:8000/?map=c:\tmp\nl.qgs&service=WMS&request=getcapabilities And I have a valid capabilities document! Thanks Ale! Works like a charm ( even on Windooz ;-) ) Is it an idea (feature request?) to let qgis_mapserver.exe spit out an INFO-message line telling the user that "Started a minimal http-server on localhost port 8000 for testing purposes" or so? OR is the code itself not aware it is being ran as a standalone http dev server at that moment?

No: that's not correct. qgis_mapserver binary is NOT a CGI module, it is a full HTTP (development) server. It listens on port 8000 by default (it should print it on stdout when it starts). As I said, I didn't test it on windows so I don't even know if that works, work fine on Linux though. > > The last one is easiest, IF the environment of apache is ok, you should > be able to put this in your cgi-bin dir of apache.

But (even on windows) it's not that you run a webserver on port 80 if you run qgis_mapserver or qgis_mapserver.exe, is it? If I run it here it's initing all QGIS machinery and ends with: INFO Server[178177]: No server python plugins are available seemingly waiting for a connection, but I do not know how To make more clear to Franko: QGIS comes with 2 mapservers: - a fastcgi module and a (simple) (you need mod_fastcgi (or something like that for it) - a cgi module: qgis_mapserver.exe is the simple cgi version. The last one is easiest, IF the environment of apache is ok, you should be able to put this in your cgi-bin dir of apache. To set the right environment, you could have a look into the osgeo4w64\httpd.d\httpd_qgis.conf (which comes with an osgeo4w64 install of qgis-server) which has most of the apache-config rules you need: DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_PREFIX "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5" DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_BINARIES "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5/bin" DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_PLUGINS "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5/plugins" DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_LIBRARIES "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5/lib" DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_TRANSLATIONS "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5/translations" DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_HEADERS "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5/include" DefaultInitEnv O4W_QT_DOC "C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/Qt5/doc" DefaultInitEnv PATH "C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qt5\bin;C:\OSGeo4W64\bin;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qgis\bin;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\grass\@grasspath@\bin;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\grass\@grasspath@\lib;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem" DefaultInitEnv QGIS_PREFIX_PATH "C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qgis" DefaultInitEnv QT_PLUGIN_PATH "C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qgis\qtplugins;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\qt5\plugins" DefaultInitEnv TEMP "C:\Users\richa\AppData\Local\Temp" DefaultInitEnv PYTHONHOME "C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Python37" DefaultInitEnv PYTHONPATH "C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Python37;C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Python37\Scripts" Alias /qgis/ C:\OSGeo4W64/apps/qgis/bin/ SetHandler fcgid-script Options ExecCGI # Order/Allow is for Apache 2.2 #Order allow,deny #Allow from all # Require is for Apache 2.4 Require all granted Off course this should all match your paths, but given this your cgi (or fastcgi) should be able to find all stuff needed to run qgis-server.

The web server component (apache or nginx or any other webserver you can plug FCGI into). FCGI binary is not an HTTP server.
