Hi Bob, YES, by all means do move to XML. I think this would be a very important step forward (and my first guess is it would be not too complicated, but you never know...). I do see how some might be attracted to having an DB storage too, but I would urge you to always have that as an

Hello, I am currently working on a project where I'm trying to use Mapserver as a WMS client, intending to have Mapserver handle the overlaying of data for me. The WMS service I'm going to be using one licensed from the National Land Survey of Finland. This server only supports HTTPS

Hi, Your first problem is that you are requesting layer rasta100 layer in EPSG:2393, but it supports only EPSG:3067. But I am thinking that the basic problem is that MapServer does not support connection over https with basic authentication at all. I started a thread named Cascading

Hello, I guess I'll have a go at local shape files first, yes. Unfortunately my GIS needs are rather specific and I am quite dependent on the nls.fi maps I'm attempting to use. But the https/basic authentication issue is one that I will resolve later, be it by compiling a version of mapserver

Hi, I took some lines of a working mapfile for cascading WMS. These extents are covering the whole Finland. If you make a request with pure mode=map map level extents are used as bounding box. By setting also the bounding box in request you will have much better control on what is happening.

Hi, If your URL is http://example.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/path/to/finland.mapmode=map. and all your layers has STATUS ON you are not asking for anything else than an empty map. Either set STATUS DEFAULT, or add layer= to your request. I recommend you to make a couple of very simple layers

Is it possible to allow MapServer to use KML, or a variation thereof? I really don't what would be entailed. For example, KML can store coordinates for displaying vectors, which would be pointless in our context. Can KML point to shapefiles or tables for vectors like it can point to TIFs
