GeoServer 2.7.4 is pretty old. Perhaps trying an upgrade first would be a good idea. After that, you could double-check how you created the database table - what does postgis think the data type is?
In any case, you can probably just assign whichever default style you want using the UI.

I have uploaded the shapefile of type polygon/line to PosgresQL Database(PostGIS enabled). Created the store from PostgreSQL/PostGIS in GeoServer. I have published the PostgreSQL table( Uploaded Shapefile type of poygon) , then GeoServer assigns Default POINT SLD to it instead of assigning polygon. Please find the attached screenshot which shows *the_geom* type as *Geometry* which is wrong. Kindly help how to fix the issue. Which part of GeoServer code assigns *the_geom* type? Please let me know any other information required further Thanks&Regards, Naresh -- Sent from: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/GeoServer-User-f3786390.html _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list Please make sure you read the following two resources before posting to this list: - Earning your support instead of buying it, but Ian Turton: http://www.ianturton.com/talks/foss4g.html#/ - The GeoServer user list posting guidelines: http://geoserver.org/comm/userlist-guidelines.html If you want to request a feature or an improvement, also see this: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Successfully-requesting-and-inte grating-new-features-and-improvements-in-GeoServer Geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list Please make sure you read the following two resources before posting to this list: - Earning your support instead of buying it, but Ian Turton: http://www.ianturton.com/talks/foss4g.html#/ - The GeoServer user list posting guidelines: http://geoserver.org/comm/userlist-guidelines.html If you want to request a feature or an improvement, also see this: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Successfully-requesting-and-integrating-new-features-and-improvements-in-GeoServer Geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users
