Andrea, OK. I started over. (ty for addressing my install question).
I create a new Data connection, using these steps. . Stores: (I connected to my local postgres table) and the connection seemed fine. (the column in my table that contains geometry that I want to see is called "geometry"). I called this new Store, localDots. . Style: (I created a .sld file by copying the default_point.sld and changing this line: <Name>Default Point</Name> To this: <Name>Geometry</Name> I also changed this line: <!--FeatureTypeName>Feature</FeatureTypeName--> To this: <!--FeatureTypeName>Geometry</FeatureTypeName--> The .sld file is attached. . Feature Type: (I selected the Style from the file I created for "style" above., I clicked the Generate button to generate the Bounding Box, then clicked the Submit button, followed by "Save" and "Apply" on the upper left. It all seemed to be accepted.) Then I went to the demo page and selected, "Map Preview" and then selected my new "Store" (localDots). The display page as the map control stuff on it, but none of my data is displayed. So somewhere I must have done something wrong.

Ah, somehow you managed to configure a datastore with no namespace attached, the configuration loader exception says: org.vfny.geoserver.global.ConfigurationException: org.vfny.geoserver.global.ConfigurationException: java.lang.Exception: attribute namespacein element datastore is empty at org.vfny.geoserver.global.xml.XMLConfigReader.loadCatalog(XMLConfigReader.ja va:300) at org.vfny.geoserver.global.xml.XMLConfigReader.load(XMLConfigReader.java:195) at org.vfny.geoserver.global.xml.XMLConfigReader.<init>(XMLConfigReader.java:14 5) at org.vfny.geoserver.global.Config.setApplicationContext(Config.java:43) You can either restart with a fresh data directory, or locate your catalog.xml file and fix the configuration by hand. A properly configured postgis datastore looks like this: <datastore namespace = "topp" enabled = "true" id = "postgis_gnis" > <connectionParams> <parameter value = "topp" name = "namespace" /> <parameter value = "true" name = "loose bbox" /> <parameter value = "myuser" name = "user" /> <parameter value = "mypassword" name = "passwd" /> <parameter value = "true" name = "wkb enabled" /> <parameter value = "localhost" name = "host" /> <parameter value = "public" name = "schema" /> <parameter value = "5432" name = "port" /> <parameter value = "gnis" name = "database" /> <parameter value = "postgis" name = "dbtype" /> </connectionParams> </datastore> and the namespace references a properly configured namespace like: <namespaces> <namespace uri = "http://www.openplans.org/topp"; prefix = "topp" default = "true" /> ... /> </namespaces> Hope this helps Best regards Andrea Aime
