changing the file/url of an existing coverageStore via REST is not immediately affected until a config reload -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-4705 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4705 Project: GeoServer Issue Type: Bug Components: REST, WMS Affects Versions: 2.1.1, 2.1.0 Environment: windows XP, tomcat 6 Reporter: Ivan Price Assignee: Andrea Aime Priority: Minor issusing a rest request to change the URL of an existing layer like this: curl -u admin:xx -v -XPUT -H "Content-type: text/xml" -d "<coverageStore><url>file:C:\images\image.tif</url></coverageStore>" http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/xx/coveragestores/yy.xml should result in subsequent requests to that layer rendering the new file, however in version 2.1.x the old file continues to be served until a server reload is issued (via REST or in the UI). interestingly, if the original request included a change to the <description> parameter the store is automatically refreshed and subsequent requests render the new file.. so it may be that whatever is triggered there should be triggered for requests changing the URL also? so for example the following works as expected (thanks to <description>), as long as description is different to before: curl -u admin:xx -v -XPUT -H "Content-type: text/xml" -d "<coverageStore><enabled>true</enabled><description>12345</description><url>file:C:\images\image.tif</url></coverageStore>" http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/xx/coveragestores/yy.xml email thread for this is here: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/redefine-source-file-for-a-coverage-via-REST-needs-server-config-reload-tt6664289.html#none cheers ! -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
