Map background is white by default

[perliedman]

When making a GetMap request without explicitly specifying the bgcolor parameter, it appears my map always get a white background, although my mapnik XML specifies a background-color attribute.

This is an example URL I use: http://myhost/?service=WMS&version=1.1.0&request=GetMap&layers=__all__&bbox=-195609.547531264,5911221.52277581,1130387.38250057,7988952.8814813&width=326&height=512&srs=EPSG:3006&format=image/png&styles=

While trying to debug this by emulating what OGCServer does, I have a bit of a hard time actually finding where the problem lies, since the configuration seems to load the background color setting properly:

from ogcserver.WMS import BaseWMSFactory
from ogcserver.common import WMSBaseServiceHandler
from ogcserver.wms111 import ServiceHandler
from ogcserver.configparser import SafeConfigParser

conf = SafeConfigParser()
conf.readfp(open('../../conf/ogcserver.conf'))

f = BaseWMSFactory()
f.loadXML("lmv-bright.xml")

wms = ServiceHandler(conf, f, "")

m = wms._buildMap({"crs":"epsg:3006", "bbox":[-195609.547531264,5911221.52277581,1130387.38250057,7988952.8814813], "width":326, "height":512, "layers":["__all__"]})

m.background
>>> Color(R=167,G=207,B=242,A=255)   # <--- expected, and not white

Is this a OGCServer issue, or is it something with my setup/request that would trigger this behaviour?

Does it #20 will this issue ?

Hi Per,

The default setting for the parameters made the old code not check the map background-color in the mapfile, this is why if you use _buildMap directly the problem is not triggered.

Can you check it is fixed now?

Thanks!

Hi and thanks for looking into this!

I no longer work at the company where I encountered this problem, so unfortunately I no longer have access to the configuration/setup and can't verify.

What are you up to now for work? dane@mapbox.com
