Looks like there is a tutorial directly for publishing a shape file in the user manual: https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/gettingstarted/shapefile-quickstart/index.html I would appreciate you trying out the release-candidate <https://geoserver.org/announcements/2024/03/04/geoserver-2-25-RC-released.html>, the 2.25.0 release is planned for next week we would love feedback and testing. -- Jody Garnett On Mar 14, 2024 at 12:50:26 PM, Jim Rogers <jim.rog...@bogart.ai> wrote: > Jody, > > > > The size of the shapefile is 221,240 KB > > > > Thanks for the instructions. > > > > Jim > > > > *From:* Jody Garnett <jody.garn...@gmail.com> > *Sent:* Thursday, March 14, 2024 3:43 PM > *To:* Jim Rogers <jim.rog...@bogart.ai> > *Cc:* geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net > *Subject:* Re: [Geoserver-users] Serving out shapefiles using Geoserver > > > > *This email was sent from an external server* > > No special guidance necessary, the installation and setup instructions > describe publishing a geopackage - but the steps to publish a shape file > are identical. > > > > 1.
