Could you please let me know which specific version of GDAL binaries did you
download from that link?
Geoserver 1.7.7 is leveraging on a old version of ImageIO-Ext (the library
which provides ImageIO plugins based on GDAL) which uses a patched version
of GDAL 1.4.5.
Therefore, I think that only a few methods of the downloaded GDAL version
will work with this configuration if you have downloaded a too recent
version (This could maybe explain why the driver is recognized although it
doesn't work).
A final question:
As you say, everything worked fine on previous Windows 32 systems. Which set
of GDAL libraries are you using on that system?
Please, let us know so I can provide more feedbacks on this topic.
Best Regards,
Daniele
