[Chameleon] Problems with the ExtractWFSData widget

Try updating at least to GDAL 1.2.6 (the latest release version). That should probably fix the problem. Also rebuild the php_ogr module. Make sure you enable Xerces support in the GDAL/OGR makefiles.

Which mapserv CGI version are you using, ie which version generated the GML?

Best regards,
Bart

Hi Bart,

I'm using the OGR that is with Version 1.2.3 GDAL.  The GML dump that I
did manage to get out of the widget is the WFS XML response and ogr2ogr
will not parse it, so it doesn't look like it's valid GML.  

Thanks,

Jason
