OGC Cite WFS Test Suite-Invalid typename is not returning an exception

[nsavard@…]

When a DescribeFeatureType request is made with an invalid TypeName, mapserver
is not returning an exception.

Test path:wfs/1.0.0/basic/describefeaturetype/get/8

Request sent:
http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/cgi-bin/mswfs_ogc_cite?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&typeName=cgf:DummyFeature&request=DescribeFeatureType

Response from mapserver:



Bug found on mapserver 4.0

This bug was found on mapserver 4.1.

Another test case report a similar problem.  So mapserver should take care of
this situation too which is:

When a DescribeFeatureType request is sent with multiple TypeNames and there is
an invalid TypeName, mapserver must send an exception.

Test case for a request with multiple TypeName which one of them is invalid is:
 wfs/1.0.0/basic/describefeaturetype/get/9

Retruns now an exception.

Note this was done in V4.1 (CVS)

Verified.  Now WFS return an exception if one layer is invalid.  Before closing
this bug, in the case of this test path: 
wfs/1.0.0/basic/describefeaturetype/get/9 where they are two layers which one of
them is invalid, the WFS server return an exception with a message saying that
both layers are invalid layers.  Should the WFS server be more specific and
point out only the invalid layer?

Here is a snippet of the response actually returned by the WFS server:  "WFS
server error. Invalid typename (cgf:Points,cgf:DummyFeature)".  Only the second
layer is invalid.

Let's reopen the bug to clarify the error message.

[assefa]

It now returns only the typename that is invalid (without the namespace in 
this case).
