WMS load getCapabilities problem with encoding (Umlaute)

[christoph]

Hi,

from version 2.4 on it is makes problems to load a wms with Umlaute (öüä). This is new? In Version <2.4 it was no problem.

öüä are often found in the abstracts of the wmss

How?

Could you please check?

I have the same problem. With Mapbender 2.2.3 everything works find. With Mapbender 2.4.1 i cannot upload wms capabilities. The error message tells about missing parameters and stops the report of the parameter just when the character appears.

Regards

Holger

hello from remscheid (germany)

we have the same problem. would be nice to solve it soon :)

We have the same problem too, but there are no Umlaute in the wms or in the mapfile. In version 2.4.0 (Postgresql 8.1, PHP 5.2.0) it works fine. In version 2.4.1 (Postgresql 8.2, PHP 5.2.2) it stops.

Now both have the same environment: PHP 5.2.2, Postgres 8.2.4.1 (on the same machine). Mapbender version 2.4.1 doesn't work. Mapbender version 2.4.0 works.

Either there are problems with the MB version or there are problems with my configuration of the new MB. I dont know.

This "Missing parameter"-Message seems to be a kind of general error when everything else fails (like Windows BSOD) . I got this message due to an invalid WMS-Service (provided by a Smallworld SIAS)

[M. Heber]

I dont think it's an WMS error. For example the WMS ​http://wms1.ccgis.de/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/data/umn/germany/germany.map&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1 broke in MB 2.4.1. And there shouldn't be errors.

[christoph]

another one?

[porath@…]

The examples above (lika.hessen.de..., wms1.ccgis.de..., www.gis.zh.ch....) all use ISO-8859-1 character encoding for the capabilities document. May this be the issue? I found out that from mapbender 2.4.0 to 2.4.1 there were changes made regarding to character encoding. The changes affect the method createObjFromXML in class wms (file class_wms.php). MapBender 2.4.0: $this->wms_getcapabilities_doc = $data; MapBender 2.4.1: $this->wms_getcapabilities_doc = $this->char_encode($data); Can someone easily check out if this change is responsible for the error?

Holger,

Thanks
