Re: [Geoserver-users] REST API reload not reloading gwc-gs.xml
Hi Andrea, thanks a lot for your answer! I think if it is technically possible and reasonable, the gwc-gs.xml should be reloaded as well. Unless there is any concrete reason for this not being possible from a development point-of-view, that is. Thanks, I'd gladly open an issue on the JIRA, if I could.. But I have no account.

Hi Andrea, thanks for your explanation, it does make sense to me that this is not a bug but rather a limitation in the Java environment.

It is, however, correct for the 'normal' font-style/weight. As far as I remember when we load font from the data dir the ability to turn then bold/italic is lost, you basically have to refer directly to the ttf file name having the styling you desire, eg.., Gudea-Bold.ttf. However, not sure how you'd get a bold/italic effect, unless you also have a file like that. It may be a limitation in our implementation, but as far as I can see Java itself does not allow to load more than a single TFF file when creating a font: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/Font.html#createFont%28int,%20java.io.File%29 Cheers Andrea -- == Our support, Your Success!

Re: [Geoserver-users] css styling questions
Hi Lottie Edward,
regarding question 2:
I'm pretty sure that the 'spaceAround' vendor option is only available
for TextSymbolizers and not PointSymbolizers.
However, with a small workaround you can also use it for symbols.
Just specify a TextSymbolizer with an empty label and add the
symbol/icon as a shield.
In CSS, this can be achieved like so:
* {
label: ['.']; /* must have content otherwise ignored */
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 0; /* do not display label */
-gt-label-padding: 5; /* = spaceAround option */
shield: url(youricon.png); /* or use predefined symbol altern. */
shield-mime: image/png;
shield-size: 10;
}
This works perfectly fine for me, however, if someone knows a cleaner
version I'd be interested in it, too.
Cheers,
Matthias

To prevent overlapping symbols, use the 'spaceAround' vendor option
together with the 'Priority' vendor option. The first option will make
sure there'll always be a specified void between symbols. The second
option will allow you to influence the decision which symbol to retain

Re: [Geoserver-users] Raster quality downgrade in LayerGroup
Hi all, apologies for re-opening this old thread from July 2011, but I wonder if there has been any solution to this issue. I just encountered the same problem in GeoServer 2.1.3 and would appreciate any help! In my test case, I only wanted to display a geo-referenced TIFF with a simple colour gradient on an existing map of mine (e.g. as backdrop for another displayed geometry). Same issues as Donnacha had back then: When I preview the layer individually, everything looks fine. However together with other layer(s) in a layer group it looks messed up. The quality of the colour gradient raster image is downgraded significantly. Cf. these screenshots: Single Layer Preview: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/56544580/single_layer.png Togeter with simple grey background layer in a layer group: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/56544580/layer_group.png Has there been any work/solution to this issue within the last 1.5 years? Thanks in advance and all the best, Matthias - Donnacha NelanWed, 06 Jul 2011 00:44:45 -0700: Hi Andrea Thanks for the feedback.I will try to put together a sample of the data showing the problem. This may take a while as there are copyright issues with the raster files. The raster dataset itself is a set of digital raster maps that are typically used in the scale range 1:1 to 1:5. It is not aerial photography or satellite imagery and instead shows cartographic lines, text etc. This may be the reason that the difference in image quality is apparent. I will come back to you as soon as I've got permission to forward on a sample to you.

On its own, i.e. not in a layer group, the image displayed is of good quality with nice smooth text, lines etc. In the LayerGroup the image is of bad quality with text and lines ‘chunky’. I have set the interpolation method for the layer and for the wms service to be ‘bicubic’ It is as if the interpolation method is not being used when the layer is in a LayerGroup. Is this possible? Is there a way of setting the interpolation method for a LayerGroup raster layer? Starting with GeoServer 2.1.1 the code path to ask for a raster layer stand alone, and ask for a group of layers have been completely separated. This has been done for performance and scalability concerns, when a single raster is asked GeoServer can work in image server mode instead of map server mode, the former is definitely faster. I guess we made improvements to the image server mode that were not ported back to the classic map server mode. Do you have an example data set with styles that we can use to reproduce the issue?

Re: [Geoserver-users] Styling with the CSS module
Hi David / all,
I'm sorry to bother you again with the CSS Module dynamic coloring issue.
I still can't use dynamic color attributes in my CSS. Is it possible
that it only works for GeoServer 2.2.x? I'm still using 2.1.3 and it
seems that the geocss .jar has only been updated for 2.2.x
Is there a way to make it working for 2.1.x too?
Thanks for your time and advice,
Matthias

*Relative Paths for Icons
*The short answer is, no, you can't make it do that. The problem is
that the CSS-SLD converter actually uses GeoTools' SLD writing
code to
generate the SLD files, and GeoTools' SLD support is not symmetric (I
mean it cannot write everything that it can read.) Resolving
relative
paths into absolute ones is a compromise between the actually desired
behavior and not supporting relative paths at all. This could
probably
be fixed at the GeoTools level, but I haven't taken the time to
inquire
into why this asymmetry was built in in the first place.
Why are relative paths a problem for you? Maybe there is a workaround
that could be used (for example, if it's a problem with
relocating data
directories, I could add a tool to re-convert all CSS styles
which would
re-resolve the paths.)
*
Icon Media Types*
The image type logic is not as sophisticated as you might expect -
things like dynamic symbolizers[1] make it impossible to know the
media
type for the image in general, so I just threw my hands up and
made it
literally 'image/jpeg' if you don't specify. You can provide the
media
type explicitly with the *fill-mime*, *stroke-mime*, *mark-mime*, or
*shield-mime* property. For example:
* {
fill: url(pattern.png);
fill-mime: image/png;
}
I don't guess it would be too hard to make the CSS-SLD converter
try to
look up the icon and inspect it to provide the default, but this
is not
as big a priority to me as rendering transformations. If you want to
look into it let me know and I can give you some pointers on
what's needed.
*Dynamic Color*
This is simply a bug (the color handling is a bit more complex
than the
label handling, to allow for rgb() color syntax.) Again, this is
probably easily fixable given the time to work on it; I'd say even
easier than smart defaults for the icon mime-type property.
If you'd like to file bugs against GeoScript-Scala[2] I'll keep them
up-to-date if and when I get around to working on these problems.

Re: [Geoserver-users] Styling with the CSS module
Hi David, in order to get the expression based dynamic coloring to work I tried the custom .jar with both GeoServer versions (2.1.3 and 2.2.3) - unfortunately without success. Here is what happens with several different configurations: GS 2.1.3 + CSS Module 2.1.x w/ your custom geocss .jar: The CSS Module doesn't seem to work properly with this combination. I cannot even create a new CSS style in the interface. Once I try that, it gives me this exception: org.apache.wicket.WicketRuntimeException: Method onFormSubmitted of interface org.apache.wicket.markup.html.form.IFormSubmitListener targeted at component [MarkupContainer [Component id = layer-selection]] threw an exception (...) Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException (...) Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/Serializable (...) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: scala.Serializable GS 2.2.1 + standard CSS Module 2.2.x: Once I click on the CSS Demo link in the web interface, everything becomes very slow and in the console I keep getting these errors: OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space I've found some other threads in the internet dealing with this problem. Of course I could give the tomcat more PermGen memory space, but still I wonder why this is happening, since it wasn't a problem at all in GS 2.1.3 GS 2.2.1 + CSS Module 2.2.x w/ your custom geocss .jar: Also memory issues. Some more specific error messages I get include: ERROR [lang.Objects] - Error serializing object class org.geoserver.community.css.web.CssDemoPage [object=[Page class = org.geoserver.community.css.web.CssDemoPage, id = 4, version = 0]] org.apache.wicket.util.io.SerializableChecker$WicketNotSerializableException: Unable to serialize class: org.geoserver.config.GeoServerDataDirectory (...) ERROR [wicket.Session] - Exception when detaching/serializing page So, apart from the dynamic color issue I seem to have some serious problems with my freshly set up GeoServer 2.2.3 w/ CSS Module... Any hints on what could go wrong here are appreciated, although I will have to put some more effort in getting a working configuration once I find the time. Btw, in which combination did you get the dynamic coloring to work? Thanks again for your continued help! Apart from this issue I am very enthusiastic about the CSS Module. Cheers, Matthias Am 15.01.2013 15:34, schrieb David Winslow: The update hasn't been included for any GeoServer release yet - I had hoped to get another feature or two in before updating the builds. However, the geocss JAR that I linked to should work in any GeoServer version (I think.) Here's that link again for reference: http://gridlock.opengeo.org:8080/hudson/view/geoscript/job/geoscript-scala/ws/geocss/target/scala-2.9.1/geocss_2.9.1-0.7.4.jar When I do get around to updating the build I won't be updating 2.1.x as it is no longer a supported version of GeoServer.

and I'm quite enthusiastic about it. Still, I cannot accomplish
everything I used to do with SLD before...
Here are two specific questions:
1) When specifying a custom icon for a mark with url(...), is it
possible to get a relative path in the generated SLD instead of an
absolute one? Also, is there a possibility to specify the format of that
image correctly? Currently, it is always converted to jpeg, even when I
put in a png...
Example:
CSS:
mark: url('icons/entry.png');
SLD:
sld:ExternalGraphic
sld:OnlineResource xmlns:xlink=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink;
xlink:type=simple
xlink:href=file:/home/muden/test_geoserver/wms/map/geoserver/test_geoserver/styles/icons/entry.png/
sld:Formatimage/jpeg/sld:Format
/sld:ExternalGraphic
2) Specifying an attributes value dynamically using a column of the
underlying DB table works fine for e.g. labels. However, it doesn't work
for colors.
Example (working):
CSS:
label: [key];
SLD:
sld:Label
ogc:PropertyNamekey/ogc:PropertyName
/sld:Label
Example (not working):
CSS:
fill: [color];
SLD:
sld:Fill/
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance and all the best,
Matthias

Re: [Geoserver-users] REST API doesn't recognise native SRS of PostGIS resource
Hi again, I solved the problem. In the whole inconvenient XML jungle you have to deal with I just overlooked the fact that additionally to the srs tag there is also the nativeCRS tag which *must* be set in order to have the layer being published properly. After I added that tag it worked. All the best, Matthias Am 21.11.2012 15:35, schrieb Matthias Uden: Hi all, I'd like to programmatically add layers from a PostGIS DB to a locally running GeoServer instance by using the REST API. Now I'm struggling to publish the PostGIS table stand_manual in the existing DataStore venue as a new layer via the REST API.

No direct errors occur, and the layer appears in the web interface afterwards. But when I check its details, the native SRS field is empty. Both the computation of the native bounds and a click on the Publish tab fails and leads to an error saying java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Argument sourceCRS should not be null When I publish the layer via the web interface, everything works fine as expected. Why can't the API detect the SRS of the PostGIS table, while the web interface can? Any ideas on what could go wrong here? Any epxerienced API users? Thanks in advance!
