Okay I think I know why udig is using the "wrong" url. The
getCapabilities document has the following:
<GetMap>
<Format>image/jpeg</Format>
<Format>image/png</Format>
<Format>image/gif</Format>
<Format>image/png; mode=24bit</Format>
<Format>image/wbmp</Format>
<Format>image/tiff</Format>
<DCPType>
<HTTP>
<Get>
<OnlineResource xlink:href="http://labs.metacarta.com/wms?"/>
</Get>
<Post>
<OnlineResource xlink:href="http://labs.metacarta.com/wms?"/>
</Post>
</HTTP>
</DCPType>
</GetMap>
So uDig is using the Get (or Post) OnlineResource for getting the layer
information. Since this is incorrect in the getCapabilities document
uDig is using the wrong resource.
I hope this helps.

That url I provided is the one that uDig is using. So it looks like
uDig is not using the correct URL. I'm not sure why though.
I was able to see the URL by enabling tracing in the eclipse
environment. I'm not sure how you'd do if you are running uDig outside
of Eclipse.

I wouldn't expect that URL to work since it's wrong. It should be:
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0?SERVICE=WMS&LAYERS=rail&EXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.ogc.se_xml&FORMAT=image/png&HEIGHT=169&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=0.0,0.0,179.61,78.168&WIDTH=389&STYLES=default&SRS=EPSG:4326&VERSION=1.1.1
But there isn't any data in that image for that layer (rails). Try
basic instead and that works.
Where did you get that URL from?
Is there anyway to see in uDig the actual URL for a given WMS layer?
Many thanks,
Rob

I'm not sure about openlayers.

Hi folks,
I'm wondering if other people can get uDig to render the basic layer
from
here:
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0?service=WMS&request=GetCapabilities
It works great under OpenLayers:
http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/geojson.html
But not for me under uDig 1.2M3.
Thanks in advance,
Rob
