Petascope WPS lists ProcessCoverages support, but Execute request fails

[jpass@…]

Our Earthserver Petascope WPS GetCapabilities response below
reports that Execute operation supports the ProcessCoverages process using either a GET or POST request.

​http://earthserver.bgs.ac.uk/petascope?service=WPS&Request=GetCapabilities&version=1.0.0&

However neither request can be made to work.

An XML-POST request based on the Earthlook example ​http://kahlua.eecs.jacobs-university.de/~earthlook/demos/wps-wcps/execute.php like below:

fails with error:

The WPS demo on earthlook is based on this integration with the 52 north WPS server. You're invoking the WPS server implemented in petascope, which is a very incomplete work, and should probably be removed at some point..

Yes, I saw that the Earthlook demo calls the petascope.wps.n52.ProcessCoverages process whereas the 'out of the box' petascope only cites an internal version.

My issue is that petascope is again declaring functionality that it doesn't support.

So the fix should be remove the false declaration, until such time as the declared support is available, add the support, and add back the declaration.

Ok support for WPS by petascope is removed now, so only the integrated solution with 52n server can be used.
