[Geoserver-users] WFS- T - INSERT (=>PostGIS), By Line / Polygon Geometry error message

Gregor_Fikoczek · January 14, 2008, 1:30pm

hi @ all,
I am trying to insert geometries via "WFST-T - INSERT" in a PostGIS-DB.
With the Point-geometry it works fine but with a Line/Polygon geometry I get
an Error.

(Using GeoServer 1.5.4)

Usually this happens when an attribute you've specified is incompatible with the actual type declared in the feature type. Can you go to config/server, enable verbose exceptions, and see if the error message is any more illuminating? Alternatively, have a look in the geoserver console (if you have one) or enable file logging and see what the full stack trace is.

Cheers
Andrea

Hi Andrea,

now I'm getting the following error message:

...

Caused by: IllegalAttribute: com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.LineString , but got com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.MultiLineString

Here we go. You're trying to insert a multilinestring into a property
that's a linestring. They are not compatible.

Yet the original error message should have been more informative...
in fact there is a bug in the way we build the exception report:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1669

Hi Andrea,

thanks a lot for your hint,
i'm raeally trying to insert a MultiLine into a LineString... ,so I have to
change it

Best Regards,
