[Geoserver-users] Post GIS WFS-T Insert Feature is read-only error

Hello GeoServer Users,

I am using the latest 1.6.x war (downloaded) in tomcat and creating Features from a Post GIS 1.3.2 data source.
When I attempt to insert a feature through the sample requests page, I get the error:
org.geoserver.wfs.WFSTransactionException: {http://schemas.c2.ngc.com/wfs/2006/01/MIL-STD-2525B}SDE.MILSTD2525_SYMBOLS is read-only

at org.geoserver.wfs.Transaction.execute(Transaction.java:267)
at org.geoserver.wfs.Transaction.transaction(Transaction.java:104)
at org.geoserver.wfs.DefaultWebFeatureService.transaction(DefaultWebFeatureService.java:156)

Is there something simple I am overlooking when configuring GeoServer?
Also see the same with 1.6.3 war (downloaded) and 1.6.0-RC3 (built from src).
This worked ok with 1.4.0-RC5 war (built from src).

Attached are my services.xml, catalog.xml and geoserver.log, the WFS-T xml I posted and how I setup Post GIS/postgres.

Thanks,
Mike

Do you have a primary key in that table? We cannot generate a feature id out of it without it, and that's the usual reason why a feature type
becomes read only.

Why it allowed you to perform the insert in in 1.4.0, I don't know... it shouldn't have.

Cheers

Yep, that was it. Added the primary key at works great now.
Thanks!
