I've just tried 2.1.2 on a XP VM I have around, setting a tiff file in the data directory with a path similar to yours, and then go pick it up with the file chooser, which resulted in a path like: file:data/TIF/DEM_Vulcano_Lipari_Salina4326.tiff And then published it... without problems. Not sure, maybe it is specific to your enviroment. Is the data dir on some shared disk for example? Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
