Description

Hi,
I have encountered the following error which occurs only with the Linux version 1.6.0 (under Windows version 1.5.0 it works fine):

having selected and displaye a WMS layer the function to Identify a feature does not work (returns always an empty dataset).

can you tell what server and layer?

Different servers (I was testing mine) but for sure this is a server used
in OpenLayers demo (Openlayers-2.10/examples/getfeatureinfo-control.html)
WMS Server:
http://demo.opengeo.org/geoserver/wms

Layer:
topp:tasmania_water_bodies

I have checked with my MapServer installation and the Linux version sends
a correct URL (only asks for text/plain instead of text/html as the
Windows version 1.5.0 does) and MapServer replies with a string that is
not inserted in the Feature attributes box.

Cheers

Works for me in Trunk - I get a html response.

You get the correct response but I don't.
For your info I am running QGIS under KNOPPIX 6.2.1
I have attached two screenshots, one of the About and the other of the Feature window AFTER having clicked on a water body of the layer I gave you.
WHen you say "Trunk" are you referring to the same version under the same operative system (at least Linux Debian)?
Anyway, if you have checked under Linux Debian and it works for you I am releaved. Maybe it is and idiosyncracy of KNOPPIX.

Anyway Thanks!

it refers to the svn/development version, If you can give it a try and report back it would be nice.
