05:38:17 strk: WMS GetFeatureInfo time
05:38:34 strk: where "iso2" = 0
05:38:39 strk: ^^^ mapserver uses such a thing
05:39:02 strk: only if my query point really hits something
05:39:10 strk: so I guess mapserver is trying to fetch informations from the table
05:39:14 strk: by 'id'
05:39:22 strk: I have an 'using unique iso2' in my DATA
05:39:29 strk: now, why is it always 0 ???
05:39:35 strk: ( no, iso2 is not an integer )
05:39:41 strk: is that the problem ?
05:40:16 strk: it's in msPostGISLayerGetShape
05:41:20 strk: int msPostGISLayerGetShape( layerObj *layer, shapeObj *shape, int tile, long record ) {
05:41:39 strk: is 'record' the 'unique' identifier specified in the mapfile ?
05:41:49 strk: forceably an integer ?
05:43:12 : * strk answers to self: YES
05:49:13 bitnerd: strk: having a good conversation?
06:40:18 strk: not very satisfactory : )
06:56:49 strk: which INFO_FORMAT are supported for getFeatureInfo ?
07:03:37 jmckenna: strk: supported getfeatureinfo formats are listed in the getcapabilities of the WMS service
07:11:29 strk: uhm, well this would by under my control so the question is really about mapserver capabilities
07:11:51 strk: I get it depends on wms_feature_info_mime_type ?
07:13:45 strk: a-ha!
07:14:07 strk: application/vnd.ogc.gml comes with no explicit wms_feature_info_mime_type ( thanks jmckenna )
07:19:56 strk: uhm, I get an empty msGMLOutput tag
07:20:13 strk: whereas text/plain does return informations about a feature clicking on the same spot
07:23:08 strk: Im probably missing some METADATA to tell it what to send ?
07:24:42 strk: I do have 'ows_include_items'
07:25:44 strk: does anyone do WMS getFeatureInfo with GML output here ?
07:26:49 strk: online doc say "application/vnd.ogc.gml, GML.1 or GML for GML features."
07:26:55 strk: http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html
07:26:56 sigabrt: Title: WMS Server MapServer 5.4.2 documentation ( at mapserver.org )
07:28:06 strk: grrrr gml_ != ows_ != wfs_ ...
07:28:21 strk: but still doesn't work
07:30:00 strk: DUMP is true
07:36:01 strk: that's it. I was hacking the wrong mapfile.... sorry for the noise, I'll go hiding somewhere for the rest of the day
