[GeoNetwork-users] Help with Metadata harvesting

I have GeoServer 2.0.1 and GeoNetwork 2.4.2 installed in the same instance of Jetty. I would like to harvest metadata for the GeoServer WMS service from GeoNetwork. The URL that works for me for WMS getCapabilities from GeoServer is

http://…/geoserver/ows?service=wms&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities <http://doemo.lib.berkeley.edu:8090/geoserver/ows?service=wms&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities&gt;

but GeoNetwork will not accept URLs with arguments. I have tried

http://…/geoserver/wms
http://…/geoserver/ows

without any success. GeoNetwork indicates that it is working, and then hangs.

What am I doing wrong?

Any help appreciated;

Garey,

I tried harvesting from the Berkeley geoserver using my GN 2.4.2 running
on a PC and it worked OK got the service record and 37 layers. It took about 3 minutes to harvest all the layers

On the harvesting management page set:

Type of OGC Web service= WMS 1.1.1 (preferred)
Service URL=http://doemo.lib.berkeley.edu:8090/geoserver/ows?service=wms&request=GetCapabilities
One run only
Create metadata for layer elements
Create thumbnails

Let me know if this helps.

Andrew
