Setting up GEOSERVER

Posted by David on July 27, 2016 at 4:09am

Hello All,

I have a temporary Pro license so I can evaluate the custom maps functionality of UGCS, but I am new to GEOSERVER and UGCS and can't figure out how to set it up properly.

I am trying to add a geoserver under the configuration tab. When I enter the URL to goeserver, which is hosted locally I get the following error: The geoserver( or an intervening proxy) sent the response in an unknown format, error code 404 (NotFound)

Clearly, I am using the wrong url or I have geoserver improperly configured. I used http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms. 

Step by step instructions would be really helpful.

Thank you, 

Dave

    David,

    also check that if you add WMS-maps (http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms) then you should add them to Map providers group. And For the WMS providers the URL is parsed and the real URL is synthesized during requests. The URL should contain at least the “layers” parameter. For example: http://x.osm.omniscale.net/proxy/service?layers=osm

    Anton, 

    Thanks for the reply.  I believe GOESERVER is configured for geotiff.  At least the store of interested are tagged as geotiffs. 

    Log file below.  Guessing I need to install Xerial SQLite driver

    David,

    what output format uses your geoserver? Can you configure it to use GeoTIFF? Also send me log files from your PC (C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\UgCS).

    Hello Anton, 

    Thanks for the reply. I did as suggested and get the same error as above when I use http://127.0.0.1/geoserver/web. 

    I can access geoserver  from http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web

    Any other suggestions?

    Thanks, 

    Dave

    Hi Dave.

    Please try to use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost. Also check that geoserver is running and you can access it via web browser http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web.

    For step by step guide see our User Manual (p. 83 - Geoservers) https://www.ugcs.com/files/PDFs/Manuals/v2.9/user-manual.pdf
