Stephen,

I ask for excuses for having forgotten to postar the occurred error.
The error when having access site http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms is:

GeoServer - Exception
The following exception was thrown:
java.lang.NullPointerException

It would like to reiterate that the site GeoNetwork that I installed
in my machine is functioning, but the InterMap map is not loading in
the screen.
I installed the Tomcat version 5.5.26, and is running in the port 8080.

Necessary to make with that intermap functions with the GeoNetwork in
the Tomcat.

Please they help me.

thanks

Marcelo,

Would love to help but you did not include the error message.

We use Tomcat 5.5.26 here at Geoscience Australia. Which Tomcat version are you using?

Your server.xml looks ok and should work but I would suggest that read the Tomcat configuration documentation for the <Context> element.

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html

Rather than change server.xml I would suggest you create files geonetwork.xml, geoserver.xml and intermap.xml in conf/Catalina/localhost and put the <Context> elements there.

Regards,

Stephen

            <server url="http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms&quot; type="2" >
                <layer name="gn:world"></layer>
            </server>
...

I inserted in file tomcat\conf\server.xml the code:

<Context path="/geonetwork" docBase="C:/geonetwork/web/geonetwork" crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="false" />
<Context path="/geoserver" docBase="C:/geonetwork/web/geoserver" crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="false" />
<Context path="/intermap" docBase="C:/geonetwork/web/intermap" crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="false" />

but, when I try to have access address http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms occurs the following error:

Somebody can help me to solve this problem?

Hi Developers,

It would like to be thankful all for the aid, and to inform that I
obtained to solve the problem. Reading logs of the Tomcat, I
discovered that the temporary directory of the Intermap was not being
found for the Tomcat.
April the archive C:\geonetwork\web\intermap\WEB-INF\config.xml
and I made the following modification:

<param name="tempDir" value="../web/intermap/tmp/" />
<param name="httpCacheDir" value="../web/intermap/httpCache/" />

To:

<param name="tempDir" value="C:/geonetwork/web/intermap/tmp/" />
<param name="httpCacheDir" value="C:/geonetwork/web/intermap/httpCache/" />

After this modification the Intermap it started to function in the GeoNetwork.

Thanks,

Marcelo.
