Bug report #3910

WMS Identify fails to provide a useful error message on failure

Added by Brendan Morley - over 18 years ago. Updated about 15 years ago.

Crashes QGIS or corrupts data: Copied to github as #:13934

Description

If the Identify tool is used on a WMS layer but the request fails, the returned error message shows nothing useful.

It's probably a simple problem with the error messages not being passed back properly from QgsHttpConnection and QgsWmsProvider.

Hi,

the same happens here, when using a proxy:

"Could not understand the response. The wms provider said:
"
(nothing).

SVN checkout date 3 July 2006, full compilation, Proxy used, RHEL4 Linux

Greetings,
Markus

I saw a useful error message come back in the HEAD build yesterday, which prompted my lodging of enhancement request #196.

Therefore I must have lodged a fix to this without noticing (!). Closing accordingly.
