Hey all,
Quick question: I’ve been looking for information on how to connect to ESRI FileGeoDB via Geoserver to server WMS tiles…I haven’t found anything solid except for 1 blog which it states Geoserver now supports ESRI FGDB - is this true? I know the FGDB is proprierty sofware and that it may not be practical/feasible to develop a connector but just hoping 
Cheers,
Ben
There is a possibility (and no higher) that the unsupported OGR plugin (http://docs.geotools.org/stable/userguide/library/data/ogr.html) might do it with the right drivers installed. But I don’t know if any one ever made it work at the command line, let alone in GeoServer.
I’d use ogr2ogr to convert it to something else (maybe GeoPackage) and then import that in to GeoServer - this blog (http://blog.geomusings.com/2016/06/24/publishing-geopackage-to-geoserver-using-qgis/) gives a nice example of a work flow.
