I have been using the REST API with Geoserver to POST and DELETE raster layers (coveragestore / coverages) dynamically. I have noticed a problem with deleting coveragestores recursively in v2.2.4. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this problem.
Prior to v2.2.4 the following command would work to delete a coveragestore and its layers
% curl –u : -XDELETE http://localhost:8180/geoserver/rest/workspaces/<WORKSPACE_NAME>/coveragestores/<COVERAGESTORE_NAME>?recurse=true
This seemed to stop working. POSTing coveragestores/coverages still works fine and deleting a workspace recursively works too?
The reallycd / strange thing is that I get a 404 back indicating the layer does not exist in Geoserver when it does.
Here is the error thrown in the server log
11:23:43,271 ERROR [org.geoserver.rest] (http–0.0.0.0-8180-18) No such coverage store: TEST_WORKSPACE,TEST_COVERAGESTORE
