[Geoserver-users] Seed/Truncate layers

Hi,

The option to seed/reseed layer dies immediately after initialization. The Geoserver log says the layer could not be found.

ERROR [geoserver.ows] -
org.geoserver.platform.ServiceException: Could not find layer XXXX:YYYYYYYY

The system configurations is as follows:

1. Cent OS 6.7
2. Geoserver 2.8 from Jan 2016
3. Vector layers stored in PostgreSQL database v 9.3

I was able to create tile cache in a different way by using the 'Preview' option of Tile Layers. This preview option displays the layer under http://servername/geoserver/gwc/demo/XXXX:YYYYYY?gridSet=EPSG:3857&format=image/png and manually zooming and panning around creates the cache.

Is there any way to get the seed/reseed option to work.

TIA
