Well, it turns out that you can't do a refresh strategy on a WMS service, as
far as I can tell. So I converted my code to use WFS instead, and it works
as expected. The working code:
underway = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("WFS", {
strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX(), new
OpenLayers.Strategy.Refresh({interval: 4000, force: true})],
protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
url:
"http://ubuntu-geospatial-server:8080/geoserver/wfs";,
featureType: "ss2011_v03",
featureNS: "http://csiro.au/underway";,
geometryName: "position"
});
Note that I also need a BBOX strategy. Another gotcha that I found was that
I needed to manually specify the geometryName, otherwise it would default to
"the_geom", which doesn't exist for my layer.
