Sorry Andy,

I've been pretty intensely engaged with a client this week and after a few
initial leads, dropped off the thread!

You're so close! I was there a few months ago ... As far as I could tell
there were a few issues hitting me in the GeoServer/ASP.Net land ...

a) You're likely running IIS on :80 and your (GeoServer?) WFS on :8080.

Most clients will fart very badly on this because when you use the WFS,
you're sending scripted requests across domains. Even though server:80 and
server:8080 are on the same server, the alternate ports constitute
different domains.

To solve this, I ran requests to GeoServer:8080 through a proxy in IIS

b) The proxy I used was very simple ... Free, took ~36s to configure, but
free and easy in this case meant not terribly sophisticated (I actually
often exhibit the same symptoms!).

By this I mean that I could read from the WFS but not post back to it (and
do anything remotely transactional).

If you want to post back the URL to the proxy you've been recommended
here, I'd been keen to see if I can successfully implement/document the
situation.

Cheers, Sam

Simply, copy both files ashx e ashx.cs to your Visual Studio web
project, at the root directory.


So then you have a new url to call: as example if you have a web
project called "Sample", then copy the files into the root path and
you have a new url called
http://localhost/proxy.ashx or http://localhost:numport/proxy.ashx if
you use integrated VS webserver.


Use the new url as explained here:
