Thank you so far. I’m waiting hopefully for an answer from Jody and tomorrow I will try a symbolic link from the data directory to the directory where the files are and put the .shp file there. I hope that helps.

Hi
I try to create an ImageMosaic coverage store. The files are in a
different directory than the shapefile and the properties file. In the
location column is the absolute path to the files. After trying to
create the store I get an exception:
“org.vfny.geoserver.global.ConfigurationException: Coverage dimensions:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: operation “ImageRead” requires
parameter at index 0 to be non-null.” Is it possible to have the files
in a seperate directory? (Or does the error message means something
different?)
The error message is not useful, all right. I think I already heard
from other people stating that it wasn’t possible to keep
the tiles outside of the directory where the .shp is located.
Jody, was that you? Did you change anything to make it possible?
Cheers
Andrea
