Hello all.
I just downloaded GeoServer yesterday and installed it on Resin. This is
my first time dealing with WFS and GML, so it is a little overwhelming
at start. Excuse my impatience for not trying to delve into a lot of
documentation on WFS, but my main concern right now is to find a
solution to best serve spatial data to people outside of our
organization, with a demo, before the weekend. After that, I will work
on completely understanding the application.
GeoServer works great. I have a PostGIS table called citytowns and when I
go to http://192.168.1.222/geoserver/GetFeature?TYPENAME=myns:citytowns
I get a page of GML with all of the data. My question is this. I want to
interface any WFS client to GeoServer. Has anyone tried ArcExplorer 4.01
(it’s free)? Also, I have tried FME Universal Viewer. I can only connect
to the WFS with this connection path
http://192.168.1.222/geoserver/GetCapabilities. Here is the output from
FME in a log file;
Server {host, port, path}: {192.168.1.222',
80’, /geoserver/GetCapabilities'} <WFS> Capabilities document URL:

The uri-map document ‘C:\Program Files\FME2003X2\xml\urimap\urimap.xml’ is being used to map from URI to URI
Using Dynamic Reader $Revision: 5.0 $ ( $Date: 2003/04/05 02:04:56 $ ) with module GML2 to read data from dataset `http://192.168.1.222:80/geoserver/GetCapabilities?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=myns:citytown’
Unable to determine the schema location for the dataset 'http://192.168.1.222:80/geoserver/GetCapabilities?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=myns:citytown’
The GML2 module halted on error, see the logfile for details
How should I set connection paths and/or move schema files? Which .xsd files are needed to read the exported GML from the WFS? I am at a loss here, so any help anyone can give me would be much appreciated. Sorry for the long message.
