Having just built a branch, WFS works fine buyt WMS calls return no data,with this message.

I cant find much doco about how to install EPSG DB - it seems a heavy burden to load it into a local DB before I can run geoserver - but that seemed to be implied by the class doco I could find.
Can someone enlighten me please!

Do you have one of the EPSG plugins on your classpath? There's one that
uses a properties file (I think it's epsg-wkt) and another that uses HSQL
(epsg-hsql). These are both reasonably easy (albeit maybe not lightweight)
ways to get access to epsg data.
Anything beyond this is beyond me.

yes - build has epsg-wkt and i added epsg-hsql with no more success. NB The docs dont actually make it clear that these have self contained properties files.

There are docs ? 
(Was not aware anyone had written them up for CRS wrangling yet)

Which branch are you using? The WCS branch uses epsg-hsql while the
regular branch uses epsg-wkt. Your WMS capabilities document should
display a long list of supported EPSG codes.

I believe they have self contained properties. The HSQL database gets
created upon 1st start (WCS branch) , and the epsg.properties file
gets read when you start the reg. branch. You shouldn't need to create
an EPSG code database, not unless you wish to add your own.

The WCS branch uses epsg-hsql while theregular branch uses epsg-wkt.
I have installed both of these (the docs said they wont conflict, behaviour is same with either one or both..)
Your WMS capabilities document shoulddisplay a long list of supported EPSG codes.
good tip - and in fact it does display this list, but complains when trying to render.. very strange. Especially as the WMS is asking for the same projection as the underlying data and no reprojection should be required.

So, this leads me to suspect a class path loading issue with the Factory Finder pattern - I discovered one under linux with loading JDBC drivers - under Tomcat 5.5 the same factory could find a class if invoked directly, but not when invoked via a Factory Finder. This is probably a tomcat classloader issue, but may be more systemic. Needs input from someone more knowlegeable than I...
