It seems that this might be a rights issue. Is the postGIS database running on the same machine as qGIS? is the webserver on the same machine as the database? Did you allow access to the postGIS database in the pg_hba.conf? or is it set to localhost access only?

Kind regards,

Gregor,
I'm trying to access my wms in qgis. When I access this url in qgis:
http://80.201.239.208:8888/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/etc/mapserver/wmsserver.map&version=1.1.0&service=wms&request=getcapabilities <http://80.201.239.208:8888/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/etc/mapserver/wmsserver.map&version=1.1.0&service=wms&request=getcapabilities>
I'm getting an error that qgis can't access the postgis db.
However, when I try to connect to postgis-db in qgis using same connection params I can access it just fine...strange..

    When you request the layer, what is your request? I ask because
    you have
    a wms_title, so I wonder whether you're requesting layer grens or
    layer
    gemeentgrens -- it should be grens.

    Other than that, looks great. What is it doing instead of working?
    When
    you hit mapserv directly via a manual WMS request, does it generate a
    blank image, or an error? Do you have a WMS URL pointing at this
    layer,
    which we could use to check?

    I might also recommend that you go over the WMS Server HOWTO on the
    website, just in case something got overlooked. Check the usual
    stuff:
    projections, wms_srs listing, read your WMS server's capabilities
    document and make sure it's sane, ...
