The different protocols have different restrictions on the *name* (however the Title should be human readable and free to change).
As an example xml documents (like GML) require an alpha or _ character to start with and then are alphanumeric as they need to be used as an XML type name / document element / thing .... Other protocols like WCS are okay with having layers names start with a number (apparently common for raster data?). I tried to provide testing for naming of layers; but it ended up being too complicated to implement so I backed out the change. I would still like to see warnings if a name is not suitable for a protocol so you could get some feedback when editing the layer. -- Jody Garnett On Jun 24, 2024 at 11:21:33 AM, Jim Rogers <jim.rog...@bogart.ai> wrote: > Jody, > > > > When I dropped the spaces in the title, I was able to click on GML > successfully. > > > > Jim > > > > *From:* Jim Rogers > *Sent:* Monday, June 24, 2024 10:41 AM > *To:* Jody Garnett <jody.garn...@gmail.com> > *Cc:* geoserver-users <geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > *Subject:* RE: [Geoserver-users] Serving out shapefiles using Geoserver > > > > Jody, > > > > Using the tutorial link below, I was able to successfully publish a > shapefile and see it in Layer Preview when I clicked on OpenLayers. > > > > But when I clicked on GML, I received the following message: > > This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated > with it.
