Works ok for me, if I turn off the "Only request features overlapping the view extent" option. Can you confirm?

Hi Nyall
I've tried deleting this WFS service and then adding it using Layer - Data Source Manager with the "Only request features overlapping the view extent" option not ticked. I am still having the same problem with the individual layers giving errors when each is opened. The error is generally similar to "Layer Airborne Geophysical Surveys of Tasmania (Mineral Resources Tasmania): Download of features for layer mrtwfs:AirborneSurveys failed or partially failed: Server generated an exception in GetFeature response: org.opengis.referencing.NoSuchAuthorityCodeException: No authority was defined for code "". Did you forget "AUTHORITY:NUMBER"? No authority was defined for code "". Did you forget "AUTHORITY:NUMBER"?. You may attempt reloading the layer with F5".

Hi Nyall
My apologies for not setting the assignee correctly yesterday. Please see my comments above. I think I need to come up with a simple example so you can see the basic project I am trying to ad the layers to.

see attached images: there is something fishy (in the server configuration) about how the layers CRS's are advertised. Compare to how other services look like (in QGIS).

#5 Updated by Robert Richardson over 5 years ago

I've successfully contacted the WFS provider (mrt.tas.gov.au) who had previously found a workaround for QGIS after other users had this same problem - the WFS version must be set to 1.0 not Auto. The same problem appears to apply to just about all the WFS servers for the Australian Geological Organisations listed here: http://www.geoscience.gov.au/web-services. I've been retired for about 6 years but it is possible that all these organisations are running versions of GeoServer that include support for GeoSciML.

A quick test showed that these services were OK with Gaia 3 but this appears to default to WFS version 1.0.

forcing the connection to 1.0 and the layers CRS's show as expected and layers are loaded.
