---------------------------------------
Summary: Latent bounding box exception for WMS with small extent
Key: GEOS-5035
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-5035
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: WMS
Affects Versions: 2.1.1
Environment: Sun Microsystems Inc.: 1.6.0_24 (Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM);
Build Information:
Version 2.1.1
Subversion Revision 16080
Build Date 23-Jun-2011 10:45
GeoTools Version 2.7.2 (rev 37473)
Reporter: K. Arthur Endsley
Assignee: Andrea Aime
I've set up GeoServer WMS stores for several small areas (~4,000 to 5,000 ft^2) from GeoTIFFs in GCS WGS84. Initially, the precision displayed in the Layer description, under the Data tab beneath "Coordinate Reference Systems," is inadequate (limited to three decimal places). When I set up the Layer(s) the first time, I left this alone. However, when attempting to preview the Layer(s), I received the following ServiceException:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><!DOCTYPE ServiceExceptionReport SYSTEM "http://vm-winserv08-a.mtri.org:8080/geoserver/schemas/wms/1.1.1/WMS_exception_1_1_1.dtd"> <ServiceExceptionReport version="1.1.1" > <ServiceException code="InvalidBBox">
The request bounding box has zero area: ReferencedEnvelope[-84.778 : -84.777, 43.956 : 43.956]
</ServiceException></ServiceExceptionReport>
I fixed this by going back in Layer description and typing in higher-precision bounds. By "fixed" I mean that the WMS worked afterwards. However, I've found that after a couple days or so I get the ServiceException again, though I've changed nothing about the Layer description. If I did change the Layer description in some way (e.g. change the selected Style), I always manually entered the high-precision bounds again and tested the WMS to see that it worked.
Here is an example WMS stream that is affected which, note, may be working because I am still "fixing" these Layers as the problem arises (obviously, I'd like to not have to re-enter bounding box coordinates every few days):
