Justin,
thanks for your offer, I finally succeeded. The problem was that
geoserver seems to be able to identify geometry types when the data
comes from a shapefile and assigns a corresponding default
polygonsymbolizer (if using polygon data). When using mySQL this fails,
but after I manually assigned a simbolizer everything was fine.
Regards,
Markus

Hi Markus,
If you are still unable to get the polygons to work can you provide an
sql dump of the table. Attaching it to an issue in the bug tracker
would be best. Feel free to assign it to me.

Christian and David,
thanks for your advice. I am very aware that mySQL's spatial
capabilities are limited in comparison to PostGIS (I used PostGIS for
the last few years whenever I had the choice). But in this project the
setting is about CMS/GIS integration and we want to use Joomla as CMS
(as it is the most well-know CMS in Indonesia and the most easy to
learn
too), Joomla uses mySQL as database and therefore... So I will go on
trying. The mail from nyem (from 17/10/2011 10:35) gives me some
hope . :)
Kind regards,
Markus
