Ok so i did the two things,
First I executed this code,
curl -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H 'Content-type: text/plain' -d
'file:///var/www/geo/shapefile/csv_shp/Quercus_inopina.shp'
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/acme/datastores/csv_shp/Quercus_inopina.shp
Now I am able to see the newly created datastore with the layer
here<http://128.196.142.55:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/acme/datastores/csv_shp.html>,
but I am not able to see the layer in the Geoserver GUI Interface. I can
see that there is a new store, csv_shp that has been created but it's layer
details are empty. The path to shapefile is empty. Am I defining the file
path wrong?
Then I took you advise and tried this code,
curl -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H 'Content-type: text/plain' \
> -d 'file:///var/www/geo/shapefile/csv_shp/Quisqualis_indica.shp' \
>
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/acme/datastores/Quisqualis_indica/external.shp
As you said I changed it to external.shp but I am getting this error,
Error persisting DataStoreInfoImpl[Quisqualis_indica] to
/usr/share/opengeo-suite-data/geoserver_data/workspaces/acme/Quisqualis_indica/datastore.xml
Also I tried to remove the csv_shp store that I created from the GUI but it
is not allowing me to remove the store and giving a big JIRA bug error
report <http://dpaste.de/a8mEi/>, saying *Oops something went wrong*.
Any idea what happened? It seems that I can only create a datastore as per
the name of the directory where the shapefiles reside.
Thanks,
Smaran
