Hi Jorge, I'm sorry, this does not work at all - I had a WMS layer on top that one of the other developers added (that I didn't noticed), so this was the layer I could see :-( Back to the start again, I'm afraid... Robin

Re: [OpenLayers-Users] Unable to see WFS layer created by GeoServer Hi Jorge, I did the steps you prescribed and - hey presto! - I can see my data. I can pan and zoom as expected. Everything looks as it should; however...I still have a JavaScript error: Error: this.layer.protocol.read is not a function Source File: http://vmfiddich/openlayers-2.10/OpenLayers.js Line: 1817 Any ideas? Thanks for your input!!!

OL will use the default style. Later, when it works, put your own style. Keep it simple as possible for now. 4) In Firebug, check if the request is being done 5) If not, or just in case, use a local proxy to ensure you are not using different domains, ié OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url="; 6) Check once more the WFS post request and answer in Firebug Good luck, Jorge On 14-09-2011 09:03, Boyle Robin wrote: > Hello list! > > I am having difficulty adding a WFS layer that was created using > GeoServer. i am using OpenLayers.Layer.Vector with WFS protocol. > When I add a layer to OpenLayers from the WMS equivalent, it is fine. > My code is below.
