Hi list,
i found a bug in geoserver 1.6.3. I was creating a FeatureType. When i was heading to the preview page i hit the link “kml”. Suddenly hundreds of empty tabs opened in Mozilla Firefox (which is my default browser) and didn’t stop to open until i killed the process. That trap should be disarmed ;o)
Best wishes
Albrecht

Wow, never saw this one. Just tried with the 1.6.3 we ship, did not happen (using firefox as well). So it seems it has something to do
with your specific configuration?
Can you give us the details necessary to reproduce it? (OS, java version, web container, and more importantly, datastore used and
sample data to reproduce your issue)
Cheers

Hi Andrea,
OS: Windows Server 2003
java: 1.5.0_15
Tomcat 5.5.26
datastore: ArcSDE 9.2 on an Oracle 10.2 dbms firefox 2.0.0.12
I'm not allowed to pass the data i'm afraid. If its really
indispensable, i can export some features into a shapefile (but i'm not
sure if it will happen with a shapefile too). Please tell me if you need
it.
(please keep the users list cc'ed).
If you manage to export the data to shapefile and reproduce, yes,
we're definitely interested.
Wondering, do you see any exception in your geoserver.log file
that might hint us to where the problem is?
(look in your GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR/logs folder).
Cheers

The logfiles didn't log an error. But i didn't tell you my actions exactly enough i think. Here's my workflow:
When i clicked on the link "kml" the browser gives me the option to save or to open. When the service gives xml i always use the option "open" and open it directly with firefox (open with -> firefox.exe + "for files of the same type always do this action"). Like this i'm visualizing for example gml that comes from the wfs.
Try to reproduce this. I'm not qite sure, if thats an error of geoserver or firefox. But with all other valid xml that it works to open it directly in firefox.
Best
Albrecht

Hmm... I tried that with Firefox 3 beta5 and it worked, got just
one window.
Mind that the kml output does have a mime type other than
xml, so maybe you're stumbling into a firefox 2 bug (open
with firefox, that cannot handle, so it looks up for the
default application associated with that mime, which is
firefox again, and the loop repeats? Just an idea...)
