[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-3176) WFS - outputFormat results with bbox inconsistant

WFS - outputFormat results with bbox inconsistant
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-3176
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3176
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: binary 1.7.5 on windows, mysql data server extension.
            Reporter: Jonathan
            Assignee: Andrea Aime

This may be a feature but I can't be sure so I'm reporting it just in case.
I'm trying to get data from within a bbox-area from a mysql database and serve it up via outputFormat shape-zip.

I use this URL:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs?request=getfeature&service=wfs&version=1.1.0&typename=j2:woodland_geometry&outputFormat=shape-zip&bbox=-4.205333978192005,52.29199954857805,-3.526715008270495,53.495919516606946

But the result is an XML document! So I remove the bbox from the end and it becomes the correct zip-file. The XML file contains this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ows:ExceptionReport version="1.0.0"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ows http://localhost:8080/geoserver/schemas/ows/1.0.0/owsExceptionReport.xsd&quot;
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&quot; xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows&quot;&gt;
  <ows:Exception exceptionCode="NoApplicableCode">
    <ows:ExceptionText>java.util.zip.ZipException: ZIP file must have at least one entry
ZIP file must have at least one entry</ows:ExceptionText>
  </ows:Exception>
</ows:ExceptionReport>

So there are no results for that query (despite the fact it gets results as WMS, but oh well).
But when I tried it with other outputFormat types (CSV, GML2, json), they all return blank documents rather than an XML document. So why does the shapefile zip get changed into a XML when there are no results? Surely the user/users-program will be expecting a zip?
