Behavior of WFS GetFeature with outputFormat="SHAPE-ZIP" changed from geoserver 2.22.0 to 2.25.2

I’ve a featureType based on an Oracle View, with 3 geometry columns:

When exporting to Shapefile by using a WFS GetFeature POST:

<wfs:GetFeature service="WFS" version="1.1.0"
                xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs"
                xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"
                xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml"
                xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
                xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd"
                outputFormat="SHAPE-ZIP">
  <wfs:Query typeName="OSP:INFRANODE" srsName="EPSG:4326">
    <ogc:Filter>
      <ogc:And>
        <ogc:BBOX>
          <gml:Envelope srsName="
                                 http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326">
            <gml:lowerCorner>-8.68313995989799 40.60415176603855</gml:lowerCorner>
            <gml:upperCorner>-8.671016375150227 40.60593562675562</gml:upperCorner>
          </gml:Envelope>
        </ogc:BBOX>
        <ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
          <ogc:PropertyName>CAT_TYPE_ID</ogc:PropertyName>
          <ogc:Literal>46</ogc:Literal>
        </ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
      </ogc:And>
    </ogc:Filter>
  </wfs:Query>

In the geoserver version 2.22.0 it brings only 1 shapefile, only with the first geometry:

  • INFRANODE.shp

With the geoserver version 2.25.2 it brings 3 shapefiles with all geometries of the feature type:

  • INFRANODEGEOM.shp
  • INFRANODEBOX_GEOM.shp
  • INFRANODELABEL_GEOM.shp

Was it an intentional upgrade?
Can I send a geometry column on the GetFeature to export only the “GEOM” column? Or do I need to limit the feature type with only 1 geometry column?

Cheers,
Tiago

Hi,

I consider that getting all three geometries with plain GetFeature is natural, and because shapefile can only have one geometry, then you’ll get three shapefiles.

To avoid that I guess you should edit the feature type schema so that either all geometries can be nullable, or so that the first geometry is not nullable but the two other geometries are. Then you can make a GetFeature request with the &propertyName=[list_of_properties] WFS reference — GeoServer 2.26.x User Manual.

With “<ogc:PropertyName>GEOM</ogc:PropertyName>” in the XML POST Body it works.

But the behavior changed between versions, and I just like to check if it was expected.

Thanks Jukka

I confirm it is intended and expected:

In your case it was likely working by accident, and was actually returning
the label geometry (unless it was null).
