Hi,

You can try if you can have success with my server 
http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/tinyows
Kosmo GIS which is an excellent open source GIS client for WFS creates the 
following request. Compare and see if you'll find something interesting.

Here is the Request payload that gets posted to TinyOWS:

My TinyOWS error log shows:


  1.

Here's my tinyows.xml configuration file:

<tinyows online_resource="https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/kala/tinyows.cgi";
         schema_dir="/usr/local/share/tinyows/schema/"
         log="/tmp/tinyows.log"
         log_level="1">
  <pg host="localhost" user="postgres" password="*********" dbname="LAHTI" 
port="5432"/>

  <metadata name="TinyOWS Server"
            title="Lahti Urban  WFS Server" />

  <layer retrievable="1"
         writable="1"
         ns_prefix="tows"
         ns_uri="https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/";
         name="subwatersheds"
         title="subwatersheds" />

 <layer retrievable="1"
         writable="1"
         ns_prefix="tows"
         ns_uri="https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/";
         name="mk_city_centre"
         title="Lahti City Centre"
         exclude_items="the_geom3880" />
</tinyows>

And finally, here is my OpenLayers editing client javascript code snippet:

  var saveStrategy = new OpenLayers.Strategy.Save();
  saveStrategy.events.register("success", '', showSuccessMsg);
  saveStrategy.events.register("fail", '', showFailureMsg);
  wfs = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Editable Features", {
      strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX(), saveStrategy],
      projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:3857"),
      protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
          version: "1.0.0",
          srsName: "EPSG:3857",
          url: "https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/kala/tinyows.cgi";,
          featureNS :  "https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/";,
          featureType: "mk_city_centre",
          geometryName: "the_geom3857"
          //schema: 
"https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/kala/tinyows.cgi?service=wfs&version=1.0.0&request=DescribeFeatureType&typeName=tows:mk_city_centre";
      })
  });


I've never used TinyOWS before. Any Ideas what I'm doing wrong? Especially the 
error message
Element '{https://geoinformatics.aalto.fi/}mk_city_centre': This element is not 
expected. Expected is one of ( {http://www.opengis.net/gml}_Feature, 
{http://www.opengis.net/wfs}FeatureCollection ).

is confusing.

Thanks in advance for any hints or suggestions how to solve the problem.
