Absolute URI required for SVG’s

Issue Type:

BugBug

Affects Versions:

2.3.1

Validation

Description:

The documentation makes it very clear in a lot of places that referencing a local SVG file should work (i.e. http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld-extensions/pointsymbols.html#external-graphics ).

However, if I do this:

  1. It fails validation:
    “Parsing failed for ExternalGraphic: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: URI is not absolute”

  2. If I submit it anyway, GeoServer chokes and fails to serve it (the file is there). I get a whole litany of errors:

I like to think the documentation is correct. My attempt to read the SLD 1.0.0 spec doesn’t find anything about the URI needing to be absolute.

Our problem with requiring an absolute one, is that the SLD becomes much less portable across multiple systems.
