[OSM-talk] JOSM WMS Plugin - Adding custom WMS Service

[Patrick Weber]

Hi

I have setup a local WMS server on my machine which I want to make use 
of in JOSM for some local aerial imagery I have. I installed the JOSM 
WMS plugin, and it allows me to use the predefined WMS Servers (for 
example the Landsat one works).
I do have trouble though with setting up my local wms server. I tried 
setting up the connection string in the plugin preferences, but I never 
get imagery in JOSM. I can add the custom layer to Josm, but no imagery 
ever shows up. I dont get any error messages though.

The connection string I am using at the moment is: 
http://localhost/echternach/wms.asp?request=GetMap&layers=VE&styles=&srs=EPSG:4326&format=image/

I attach the Capabilities XML response of my local server here for your 
reference, hopefully this is enough information to construct a working 
connection string.

Can anyone help me out here with a valid connection string? The WMS 
Server software is Manifold GIS.

Thanks!
Patrick
