QGIS 3.2.1 - WMS server URL not accepted

[qgib]

Author Name: Armand Bahi (Armand Bahi)
Original Redmine Issue: 19556
Affected QGIS version: 3.2.1
Redmine category:web_services_clients/wms

---

I have a WMS server running with mapserver on https://demo.veremes.net/wms/public/cd59_raster?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities

When adding the layer I got the "Invalid Layer : Raster layer Provider is not valid" error

But if I copy the GetCapabilities result on a file and put it on https://demo.veremes.net/cd59_raster then it works

It seems like something on the first URL is not accepted

I've tried on Windows and it works too, it seems the problem is on the linux version (tested on 3.2.1+28bionic amd64)

try clean the cache in your qgis linux installation.

I may have similar problem. I want to load _http://geoportal.dgu.hr/services/inspire/orthophoto_2014-2016/wms into qGIS 3.2.1 but I get error "Invalid Layer : Raster layer Provider is not valid (provider: wms, URI: crs=EPSG:3765&dpiMode=7&format=image/png&layers=OI.OrthoImagery&styles=&url=http://geoportal.dgu.hr/services/inspire/orthophoto_2014-2016/wms".

But, when I load WMS layer in 2.18.20, it loads like charm. Then I save project file in 2.18.20. Then I open project file (saved in 2.18.20) in 3.2.1. and WMS layer is there which is strange. Then I remove WMS layer in 3.2.1 and try to load same layer in 3.2.1 and I get same error. I am using Windows 7. BTW: this is my first issue report, sorry if I did it wrong.

So I tried on a Debian 9 and it worked correctly, I'm going to create a new Ubuntu 18 and test on it

Seems to work on an other Ubuntu18 machine, I'll reinstall it on mine, do you want to make some tests before I do it ?

this suggest the issue is caused by something very specific in your original qgis installation, hard to say what exactly. If you find it please reopen this ticket.

On Windows 7. Should I open new ticket, since this one is closed?

the observations above point to a local (installation? cache? network?) issues, not a qgis one. Please try on a different machine, in the same network (with a clean installation/profile) and see if still does not work.

FWIW, clearing the QGIS cache (Settings → Options → Network → Cache settings → Clear) fixed the issue for me. I'm using QGIS 2.16.0 (GDAL/OGR 1.11.3).
