Hi Simone, Thanks for the reply. I think I'm making a little progress. I'm just hitting a few bumps. All of my raster and vector data is in subfolders under a folder called \MapData. I've figured out how to add a Workspace, and a Store, and layers. I was able to get GeoServer to server up a GeoTiff of Natural Earth. And a shape file of line contour data. That seems pretty nice. In Mapserver I can have a shapefile that points to a group of raster jpegs. I tried adding that, but GeoServer just served up blank grey tiles. For this example, I was trying to add a layer for BMNG December. It is 8 Jpegs. Is there a way to add a layer of 8 Jpegs? When I want to add a raster source, it seems to be looking for a single file. Thanks, James

I stopped Apache, installed the 2.5-RC1 version as an administrator, and now the web page is answering up. Thanks! No to get started with this thing. Two quick questions: What is the GetCapabilities URL for my new geoserver WMS? I have about 40 layers that are being served by MapServer. They are located in \Mapdata. Can I configure GeoServer to serve maps from this location? Ehm, what do you mean exactly? I believe we need more info to understand how to help. GeoServer can be used to serve the data that you configured for MapServer not the mapfiles themselves.

For getting a better feeling, try this: - Download binary package (zip) http://sourceforge.net/projects/geoserver/files/GeoServer/2.5-RC1/geoserver- 2.5-RC1-bin.zip/download - Unzip it to somewhere else than either of the "program files" on your computer, for example "gs_test" - Double click C:\gs_test\geoserver-2.5-RC1\bin\startup.but If this fails, open the bat file and set JAVA_HOME here: cls echo Welcome to GeoServer! echo. set error=0 set JAVA_HOME=C:\Java\jre7_64 rem Write your own jre path above rem JAVA_HOME not defined if "%JAVA_HOME%" == "" goto noJava Retry. This works for me on Windows 7 even without admin rights. Firewall warning appears but it can be closed and Geoserver starts at localhost:8080. Let's hope that this works and you can start playing with Geoserver. -Jukka Rahkonen- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
