[Geoserver-users] wfs not working when other shp-store not available

Hi,

running geoserver 2.4.0 here with a set of different stores and layers.

We accidently removed a shp-file (belonging to one of the geoserver stores).
After a restart of Tomcat/Geoserver (windows) WFS request answer with an
exception:

<ows:ExceptionReport xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows&quot;
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&quot; version="1.0.0"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ows
http://example:80/geoserver/schemas/ows/1.0.0/owsExceptionReport.xsd&quot;&gt;
  <ows:Exception exceptionCode="NoApplicableCode">
    <ows:ExceptionText>java.lang.RuntimeException:
java.io.FileNotFoundException:
d:\data\geoserver2.4.x\data_dir\data\shapefiles\example.shp (The system
cannot find the file specified)
java.io.FileNotFoundException:
d:\data\geoserver2.4.x\data_dir\data\shapefiles\example.shp (The system
cannot find the file specified)
d:\data\geoserver2.4.x\data_dir\data\shapefiles\example.shp (The system
cannot find the file specified)</ows:ExceptionText>
  </ows:Exception>
</ows:ExceptionReport>

The strange thing is that in de admin pages the store just shows 'enabled'?

Does anybody have a explanation for this, or a workaround?

I think the missing/removal of one store-data file should not bork all
WFS services?

If somebody can confirm this, should I create an issue for it?

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde

Hi Richard,
I’d suggest creating an issue for it. I’ve come across a few other instances of where one wrong thing breaks an entire aspect of a service (typically GetCapabilities).

If you can include the entire set of relevant log entries (at GeoTOOLS developer level) that occur when this issue is triggered into the ticket, that’ll hopefully help whoever fixes it.

Cheers,
Jonathan

It should not if you set "Resource error handling" in the "global"
panel to "skip misconfigured layers".
For backwards compatibility reasons, that's not the default, you have
to set it manually

If, despite setting that, you're still getting errors while generating the
capabilities documents, and it can be reproduced on the current stable
series (2.4.x right now) then it's a bug

Cheers
Andrea
