[Geoserver-users] GeoServer 2.4.1 + ArcSDE 10.1

Hello!

I installed the ArcSDE extension to GeoServer following the instructions in the documentation (http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/data/database/arcsde.html).

Now, when I'm trying to create a new store using the extension I get the following error message: "Error creating data store, check the parameters. Error message: Can't create connection to *server name* for Session #9[SDE error -10][Error desc=NETWORK I/O OPERATION FAILED.][Extended desc= ]"

Before going further, is it even possible to get the ArcSDE extension work with ArcSDE 10.1? I didn't find anywhere a clear answer.

Hi Ismo,

I have been experiencing a similar-ish issue trying to Direct Connect from
GeoServer 2.4.1 to ArcSDE 10.1 SP1.

I was just wondering, did you ever figure out if GeoServer was compatable
with SDE 10.1 ?

Many thanks,

Tadhg.

Hi Ismo,

I cannot answer the question directly as we have no database yet. However,
you will need the ArcSDE SDK for 10.1, which is not on Esris's web site
anymore. Esri distributes the SDK now via CD. So you need to call support
directly. The reason being - as I have been told by support - that there
will be no Java ArcSDE SDK anymore after the version 10.2.

The SDK comes as 64-bit version only which is important if you want a direct
connect and need the DLLs.

The SDK and the projection engine (pe....jar) work with ArcSDE 9.3.1. So
they are at least backwards compatible. Well, to some degree it is because
when trying I had a few crashes.

However, given that geoserver works with the sdk interface only (I hope I am
not wrong here) and given that this seems to work I think the answer is yes
you can. I don't think that the ArcSDE 10.1 SDK cannot talk to the ArcSDE
10.1 database, it would be very bad if it couldn't. Not the answer you
expect but I hope it helps.

Cheers

Christian
