Hi Mats,
thanks for reporting back your findings.
We could think about adding a subsection in the GeoServer documentation
containing these feedbacks for whoever is going to enable GDAL on GeoServer
deployed on Tomcat running as a Windows Service.
(I think that the setenv.bat are fine when not using
Hi Daniele and others who contributed!
You were right, the Tomcat configuration was the core of the problem, not
the way Geoserver was set up ir installed.
By piecing together the information fragments and hints given I have been
able to patch together a working solution to the GDAL problem.

Hi Mats,
You may want to try Ian's suggestions.
If still not working, at this point I think it's an issue in the way Apache
Tomcat is configured. The GDAL DLLs need to be properly referenced and
loaded to have the GDAL plugin work.
I never used Tomcat as a Windows service so I can't provide additio
Backslashes are probably going to be a problem in

try either

Hi Daniele!
Thanks once again for your support. I am using the stable version.
The war file I used was downloaded on september 23 and labeled
geoserver-2.16.0-war.
The contained geoserver.war file is dated 2016-09-18.
And I can confirm that the file gdal-2.2.0.jar of the same date is present

Hi Mats,
quick question:
Which GeoServer 2.16 are you using? Is it a 2.16.0 or a 2.16-RC instead?
The past month we noticed that the 2.16-RC wasn't containing a GDAL jar so
we fixed that before doing the 2.16.0 release which properly contains the
missing package.
You might double check on your weba
Hi Daniele!
Thank you for a very considerate and complete reply to my question. I
really appreciate the time you put into this.
But I am sad to report that it has not helped. Not to say that it is your
fault. I understand what you describe, and what needs to be done, but
Tomcat and Geoserver will n
Hi,
GeoServer and GDAL are under continuous development/improvement so each
release series of GeoServer has some requirements in terms of which GDAL
version need to be used. This is usually reported in the
documentation unless there are typos or some sections don't get updated
properly during updat
Hi All!
I am unable to find sufficient information on how to enable the GDAL plugin
for Geoserver.
The mailing list has no information that I can use, and the documentation
is incomplete.
My setup is Geoserver 2.16, deployed from a war-file under Tomcat 9 on
Windows Server 2016 Standard. All 64bit
