I am trying to add a shapefile datastore to a geoserver 2.0.2 instance. I
have been able to get it to work using the following command
curl -u admin:geoserver -v -XPUT -H 'Context-type: application/zip'
--data-binary '/home/path/to/test.zip'
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/sf/datastore/sf/file.shp
However I already have the shape files stored in a particular directory and
I simply want to reference them. When I try the following command which I
was told by a guy in the open-geo booth at FOSS4G-2010 it gives me an error.
curl -u admin:geoserver -v -XPUT -H 'Content-type: text/plain' -d
'/home/path/to/test.shp'
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/sf/datastores/sf/external.shp<http://localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/workspaces/tt/datastores/tt/external.shp>

Could not determine format. Try setting the Content-type header.
It is supposedly telling me that the text/plain content type is unknown but
I can't get any other combination other then application/zip to work.
Can anyone say what I'm doing wrong or is what I'm trying to do not posible
and I need to program my own restful interface to do it.
