[Geoserver-users] GeoWebCache WMS Layers

I Think I found my answer:

http://old.nabble.com/Is-it-possible-to-have-multiple-layers-within-the-Layers-parameter-when-calling-GeoWebCache-within-Geoserver-td21259085.html

However, our list of layers are dynamic (we are dynamically adding/removing layers via the REST Configuration API. So, is there a way to include those layers as part of GeoWebCache and enjoy its benefit? I won’t be able to predict the exact name/list of layers I will be seeing in my Geoserver at any given time.

Thanks,

Hello,

I’m forming Geowebcache urls and I’m getting back HTTP 400 errors back whenever I list more than one layer in the layers parameter.

So for example,

http://m222-geoserver-xsp.irad.net:8080/geoserver/gwc/service/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.1&srs=EPSG:4326&bbox=-74,40,-70,44&width=1024&height=768&layers=everett:6da0e70c-5d6a-11df-a722-005056831642,everett:56885df8-5d69-11df-95e1-005056831642&request=GetMap&format=image/png

url will lead to a

00: Thread 74 Unknown layer everett:6da0e70c-5d6a-11df-a722-005056831642,everett:56885df8-5d69-11df-95e1-005056831642. Check the logfiles, it may not have loaded properly.

If I ask for layers, one at a time, the layers do exist and I get the proper output. I tried the above request without Geowebcache, and the expected output is correct.

Why would this occur with Geowebcache? Is this a known bug with Geoserver 2.0.1?

Thanks
