Hi Maxx, a very thourough bug report!
plz create an issue for it. It would even be better if you had a public wfs while this issue is not fixed... Looking into http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#dt-NSDecl to me it looks like you should use the namespace prefix in the xmlns attributes, not the uri's. So that would make QGIS generate not 100% valid xml? But I'm not a xml gury myself. https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/providers/wfs/qgswfsprovider.cpp#L53 is the place where you see the declaration of the namespace part of the elements when building the xml: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/providers/wfs/qgswfsprovider.cpp#L496 2 options: - xml guru confirms that it is not ok to write a uri in a xmlns attribute - if you are able to compile yourself, you could try to change #53 to change to 'wfs' instead of the uri, and check if all requests are still valid... Hope this helps, others please chime in Regards, Richard On 28-11-15 08:52, emmexx wrote: > I posted the following on the geoserver mailing list but nobody replied. > > I have a problem when I try to update a multilinestring geometry. > I had the same issue in the past, I thought I had solved it but now it > is back again. :-( > > Setup: geoserver 2.7.1 and a test layer connected to a postgis table. > Qgis 2.10. > > I connect to the layer in qgis. > I can create a new feature (line), I can update feature attributes but I > can't update the geometry of any feature.
