Hello,
I want to be able to reference shape files that are stored in an external
directory without making an actual copy of the files using geo-server.
I used the use case provided by in the
Geo-server documentation for uploading a shape file and it works, however
tweaking produced errors.
Example given Below:
a) Use case for uploading shapefiles works
[u...@~/geoserver-2.0.2]$ curl -u admin:geoserver -v -XPUT -H
'Content-type: application/zip' --data-binary
@/home/User/shapefiles/test1.zip
http://localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/workspaces/tests/datastores/test1/file.shp
* About to connect() to localhost port 9090 (#0)

If I use the following to reference the data externally I get an error.
Errors received when trying to reference the file(s) externally
[u...@~/geoserver-2.0.2]$ curl -u admin:geoserver -v -XPUT -H

Could not determine format. Try setting the Content-type
header.[u...@~/geoserver-2.0.2]$
It seem to be a syntax error, However, I'm not able to figure out the
errors.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
