Re: [Geoserver-users] Creating Image Mosaic from Files on a Networked Drive

[Sandra Kennish]

Hello

Just to update I've managed to create the image mosaic by adding in the 
Geoserver server name to the folder containing my tif files and giving it full 
permission to start with and then reducing it to read once I've created the 
mosaic.

I had to use the UNC path to the files.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Hi Andrea

No afraid I get the same error. I'm off for a couple of days now, but I'll try 
looking at permissions when I get back.

Ciao Sandra,
if you are running GeoServer as a service, you need to fiddle with the
account that is running that service to make sure it has acccess to
network drives.

Re: [Geoserver-users] Creating Image Mosaic from Files on a Networked Drive

[Sandra Kennish]

Hi Daniele

I've typed in:

file://S:\OS_1_250_RASTER

but I just get an error: Could not find file: 
file://S:\OS_1_250_RASTER

The drives are showing on the server correctly - could it be permissions as I'm 
logged directly in to Geoserver as a Geoserver user, and while I have full 
access to these folders, the Geoserver user I'm using probably doesn't.  How 
would I give a Geoserver user file permissions?

Regards

Sandra

Hi Sandra,
I'm keeping the discussion inside the mailing list so that in case I'm unable

Could you try to directly insert the mosaic path inside the 
ConnectionParameters: URL edit box? (Without using the "Browse" link)

In my example I have:
file://V:\bigdisk\data\mosaics\50cm
Where V: is the network drive.
Please let me know.

Hi Sandra,
that seems strange.
I have some sample data contained into a network disk which I refer as 
V:\bigdisk\... when configuring some mosaics and I have no issues.
Could you please provide us some more information?
1) Which geoserver version are you using?
2) How are you configuring the mosaic? (As an instance, I have a 
V:\bigdisk\mosaic folder containing several TIFFs... I have created an

Hello

I wonder if anyone can help.

I'm trying to create an Image Mosaic from some tif files stored on a network 
drive - S:\.

However I can't point Geoserver to a network location in the ImageMosaic 
plugin, just to the local files on the C:\ drive of the server. I've tried 
replacing S:\ with \\server\share but that doesn't work 
either.

I don't really want to keep a second copy of these files, so is it possible to 
create a mosaic from a network location?

I also tried this 
http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Image-Mosaicking-Plugin-and-UNC-paths-td3806076.html.
 Geoserver and Tomcat are both running as services on my installation as in 
this post.

The problem seems to be with this is that it definitely doesn't recognise S:\ 
within the dbf file, and I can't seem to get gdaltindex to write a UNC path.

Any help gratefully received.

Thanks

Sandra

another question:
do you have proper permission on that drive?

Re: [Geoserver-users] Creating Image Mosaic from Files on a Networked Drive

[Daniele Romagnoli]

Hi Sandra,
that seems strange.

I have some sample data contained into a network disk which I refer as
V:\bigdisk\... when configuring some mosaics and I have no issues.
Could you please provide us some more information?
1) Which geoserver version are you using?
2) How are you configuring the mosaic? (As an instance, I have a
V:\bigdisk\mosaic folder containing several TIFFs... I have created an
imageMosaic store referring to that folder and it worked fine. Or are you
dealing instead with a properties file to define an external location
through the IndexingDirectories parameter?)

Please, let us know.
Cheers,
Daniele

[Geoserver-users] Creating Image Mosaic from Files on a Networked Drive

[Sandra Kennish]

Hello

I wonder if anyone can help.

I'm trying to create an Image Mosaic from some tif files stored on a network 
drive - S:\.

However I can't point Geoserver to a network location in the ImageMosaic 
plugin, just to the local files on the C:\ drive of the server. I've tried 
replacing S:\ with \\server\share but that doesn't work 
either.

I don't really want to keep a second copy of these files, so is it possible to 
create a mosaic from a network location?

I also tried this 
http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Image-Mosaicking-Plugin-and-UNC-paths-td3806076.html.
 Geoserver and Tomcat are both running as services on my installation as in 
this post.

The problem seems to be with this is that it definitely doesn't recognise S:\ 
within the dbf file, and I can't seem to get gdaltindex to write a UNC path.

Any help gratefully received.

Thanks

Sandra
