Hello JC,

If you are using MS4W, you can test a GetLegendGraphic request by using the local demo WMS service that comes with every MS4W install, out-of-the-box, such as:

https://ms4w.dev/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=/ms4w/apps/local-demo/local.map&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&layer=countries&FORMAT=image/png

(you should be able to modify the url above for 127.0.0.1/ instead)

If that works locally for you, just follow the local-demo.map, for your own mapfile.

Hello,

I have many map files and I’m trying to get legends from them.

I followed the documentation I found : https://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#getlegendgraphic-request <https://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#getlegendgraphic-request>

The map file I test follows the requirements. I tried many calls :

http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.0.0
 
<http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.0.0>

http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.1.0
 
<http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.1.0>

http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.1.1
 
<http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.1.1>

http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.3.0&SLD_VERSION=1.1.0
 
<http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=C:/mywms.map&SERVICE=WMS&layer=mylayer&REQUEST=getlegendgraphic&FORMAT=image/png&VERSION=1.3.0&SLD_VERSION=1.1.0>

Each of them give me the error :

readGIF(): General error message. corrupted gif image?: Failed to read from file

What does that mean ? Am I missing a parameter in my call or something more in the map file that is not in the documentation ?

Or is it the kind of generic error “I can’t generate your legend, just find by yourself why” ? XD

Many thanks !

*JCB*
