[Geoserver-users] ENVI Ehdr support in GeoServer

Hello,

I’m new to GeoServer and wish to load up some ENVI raster data. I have a successful installation and I’ve added the GDAL coverage extension. I see that there is Ehdr Coverage Format in the Coverage Plugins List.

When I go to create a new coverage store using the EHdr Coverage Format, Geoserver returns one of two messages saying it could not find the file or indicating an invalid url. Exact messages:

  1. Could not find file: C:\Program Files\GeoServer 1.7.1\data_dir\coverages\bhtmdef.dat Perhaps location was entered wrong?; or
  2. "Invalid url: ‘file:coverages/bhtmref.dat’ for format type:‘EHdr’. The file is indeed at this location with a corresponding .hdr file.

If I enter the .hdr file in the URL field the console returns:

“ERROR 1: The selected file is an ENVI header file, but to open ENVI datasets, the data file should be selected….”

Can anyone provide some advice on how to troubleshoot these messages? I’ve tried renaming the ENVI binary file extension to .dat, .img, .envi and .ehdr but nothing seems to be recognized.

Many thanks,

Mark
