Hello, I am now able to reference shape files outside of geoserver's data directory without copying the file in Geoserver's data directory using the following configuration after applying the patch found at: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3999
curl -u admin:geoserver -v -XPUT -H 'Content-type: text/plain' -d 'file:/home/grass/shapefiles/test2.shp' http://localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/workspaces/icens/datastores/test3/external.shp? what I noticed, however, is that when in the connection parameters section the file path is not entered and two stores are created with the same name. Also if I remove any one of the stores I would be unable to view the shape file uploaded. In this case two entries of the datastore test3 would be created. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
