Description
I have written about this here: http://forum.qgis.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9809
Even though I am using the UbuntuGIS unstable repository, another user mentions that it is happening with the QGIS repository as well. So it may be a bug in the source.

In the project properties are you using relative or absolute paths? now qgis-master uses relative that won't work with qgis server, don't know if this change was backported. Please check and report back.

Hi Giovanni,
I double-checked and they are saved as absolute in the project properties. The .qgs and web server setup worked fine with QGIS Server when using the 1.7.1 install.

I'm on Ubuntu too and qgis-master works fine. Can you give it a try (using the nightly build repo) and then report back?
cheers

Yes, I can confirm that the nightly repo install works fine, excepting a small quirk:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities
does not return anything from wms_metadata.xml (exhibits same error of no response to host web server). In fact, the contents of wms_metadata.xml, I believe, are not the same as the UbuntuGIS 1.7.(1|2|3) install's. Not a big deal, since qgis-maserver is now serving maps and reporting the .qgs GetCapabilities just fine.
I can continue to run the qgis-master install, but what about when there is a new stable (or working unstable) version from UbuntuGIS? Will it be moderately easy to roll back to those versions? I'm running this under Parallels on a Mac, so I can just delete snapshots, but would prefer to just keep moving forward, albeit with a stable-ish install. (got too much work to get done right now)
Thanks!

As the bug is confirmed in 1.7.3 I'll assign the ticket to the QGIS-Server mantainer. Let's see if he can backport/fix the issue in time for 1.7.4

Testing it on my machine, there is a problem with the release-1_7_3 branch (reading of path in QgsProject class). The fix is already in release-1_7 branch, so 1.7.4 will be fine.

Hi,
can you point me to the patch in the release-1_7 branch that fixes this? I need to apply it by hand into a 1.7.3 re-build.
I'm no redmine or git expert and couldn't figure out how to browse any branches but the master... :-/
thanks,
Hamish
