Non-Geometry Column Named "Location" Causes WFS Exception
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-3531
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3531
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PostGIS, WFS
Environment: OS: Windows 2003
Container: Tomcat 6 redirect to IIS
Java: Version 6 update 14
GeoServer: 1.7.5
Reporter: Phil Nugent
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Priority: Minor
Per Justin: "location" is also a reserved word in gml as well. Every gml
feature
type extends from gml:AbstractFeatureType. And that contains a
"location" attribute which is a geometry property afaik. In general when
fields in a dataset have the same name as a gml property
they are attempted to morph into that type, in this case a geometry.
Original Issue: I ran into a problem with a WFS getfeature request, though I
don't know if this is a bug in GeoServer. Discovered that the problem is with
retrieving feature information from PostGIS where the table contains a column
with name "location". I found out that "location" is a reserved word in
Postgres, but I don't think that is the issue. From the exception, it looks
like some component is expecting a field with name "location" to be geomety and
is trying to cast from string. I solved the problem temporarily by renaming the
column.
Exception:
<ows:Exception exceptionCode="NoApplicableCode">
<ows:ExceptionText> java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to get property: gid
Failed to get property: gid java.lang.String cannot be cast to
com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry</ows:ExceptionText>
</ows:Exception>
