I am trying to add WMS layer on QGIS. It has been added but it says 'Protocol "" is unknown'.

The URL I am using are: https://data.opendevelopmentmekong.net/geoserver/ODCambodia/Forest_cover_2009/wms?service=WMS&request=GetCapabilities&layers=ODCambodia%3AForest_cover_2009

https://data.opendevelopmentmekong.net/geoserver/ODCambodia/wms?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities

How can I display it?

There seems to be an error on the Geoserver version they are using

https://data.opendevelopmentmekong.net/geoserver/ows?service=wms&version=1.3.0

> This page contains the following errors: error on line 5910 at column
> 17: XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document Below is
> a rendering of the page up to the first error.

However the links in the catalog are listed https://data.opendevelopmentmekong.net/dataset/forest-cover-in-cambodia-2015-2017?type=dataset do not have the forest cover for 2009

They do for 2015

https://data.opendevelopmentmekong.net/geoserver/ODCambodia/Cambodia_forest_cover_2015/wms?service=WMS&request=GetCapabilities&layers=ODCambodia%3ACambodia_forest_cover_2015

and that will load in QGIS when dpi mode is changed in to Geoserver.

  • Hi, Thank you so much for your answer! It worked! I found the data for other years too. But it still has "Protocol "" is unknown" below the new layer. I'm not sure if it will cause trouble. Thank you so much!!! (: Commented Apr 16, 2020 at 1:48

    The issues in the capabilities response are out of bounds values in the EX_GeographicBoundingBox sections. For example 'cvc-type.3.1.3: The value 1625604.875' of element 'northBoundLatitude' is not valid. Commented Apr 17, 2020 at 8:53
