Hi We have been struggling to get GeoServer to follow data stored in a symlinked directory (symlinked from GeoServer's actual data directory). All permissions have been set and the owner/group is set to Tomcat7. The ls output shows:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 tomcat7 tomcat7 21 Aug 4 13:03 spatial -> /mnt/sdi/spatial/ and this link and file system can be navigated from the command line. If any of the data is copied over from the symlinked directory to the actual data directory (in our case, at /var/geoserver/data/), then it can be loaded as expected. If not, then we get an error message: Error creating data store, check the parameters. Error message: Could not acquire data access 'XYZ' The log show the same message, along with the usual NullPointerException. Is there an additional Tomcat or GeoServer configuration that is required to access symlinked directories? Thanks!
