I was just playing around a bit, and experienced the following when zooming in on Egypt using NASA WMS connection:

"Kunde inte rita NASA (JPL) för att:
(Unknown error code from a post-1.3 WMS server)
The WMS vendor also reported:
Requested image is too tall, max allowed height is 4096

This is probably due to a bug in the QGIS program. Please report this error.

I also stumbled over this problem which makes Quantum GIS pretty unusable for WMS.

(Unknown error code from a post-1.3 WMS server)
The WMS vendor also reported: 
msWMSLoadGetMapParams(): WMS server error. Image size out of range, WIDTH and HEIGHT must be between 1 and 2048 pixels.

There seems to be no way to determine the max image dimensions and no standard error codes for this.

I suggest to try to parse the max dimension from error message after first failure, the retry with this value. If this fails, too, retry x times with smaller values.
Dimensions should be configurable when adding a WMS.

When it's only possible to get smaller tiles than initially requested, Quantum GIS should do tiling.

WMS support is working well inside version 0.80beta2. Broken only in final release.

Hi, using 0.8.0 Final on Windows, get a similar error with another server:

(Unknown error code from a post-1.3 WMS server)
The WMS vendor also reported:
[[CubeSERV]]-35018: Image is wider than maximum allowed width of 800 (raised in
function validateMapRequestParameters() of file "map_request.c"
line 482)

This is probably due to a bug in the QGIS program. Please report this error.

Got a similar error on 0.8.0 on windows.

Could not draw USGS because:
(Unknown error code from a post-1.3 WMS server)
The WMS vendor also reported:
Exception in [[GetMap]] reply.
[ERR0924] Requested image is too big and cannot be created.

This is probably due to a bug in the QGIS program. Please report this error.
