Description
As a QGIS user
I want to load a layer from an ArcGISMapServer
So that I can view the feature server layers on my map
- open QGIS 2.18.4
- right click on ArcGIS MapServer > New Connection
- Name: ECCC: SpeciesProtectRestore_Canada_CanadianWildlifeService
- URL: http://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/SpeciesProtectRestore_Canada_CanadianWildlifeService/MapServer
- press OK
- Result:
- No layer added to Layers panel
- No layer added to Browser panel
- it would be nice to add either of the following
- Service URL
- http://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/SpeciesProtectRestore_Canada_CanadianWildlifeService/MapServer
- Present dialogue to select one or more layers to add
- Layer URL
- http://ec.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/SpeciesProtectRestore_Canada_CanadianWildlifeService/MapServer/0
- Present dialogue to select the one layer to add
- Maybe show other possible layers within the service?
- Service URL
- What about also providing an option to check for an OGC OWS equivalent service (WMS, WMTS, WCS etc)

Thanks for testing.
A detail that i did not think mattered but may is that I am using the ditribution within OSGEO4W. Do you have a version you can test QGIS in? I wonder if something happened during install.
Next, I wonder if there is a debug mode or log file I can monitor to see what is going on.
Thoughts?

I just tested this another way in 2.18
- Ensured QGIS Desktop Closed
- Open QGIS Browser
- Added ESRI Mapserver service: Worked
- opened QGIS desktop: service added to list
So it works through the QGIS browser for me but not through desktop.
Any thoughts on how to narrow down the issue?

OK,
I think I found the issue. It has been a while since I have used QGIS in all its workflows so it took a while to determine the issue and worked with another user to narrow down the issue.
The issue seems to be in one of the many potential paths to add a layer. So lets go through them:- QGIS Browser: ArcGISmapserver > New : WORKS
- Menu: Layer > Add Layer > Add ArcGis Mapserver Layer: WORKS
- Manage Layers Toolbar: Add WMS/ESRI vector layer > Add ArcGIS mapserver Layer: WORKS
- Browser Panel: right click ArcGISMapServer item > New Connection: FAILS
So is seems the issue is with the browser panel.
Can anyone confirm that this workflow also fails for them?

tested them all on 2.18.7/osgeo4w and Linux, they all work for me.
