Hi Ben Thanks for testing on your side as well. I am a bit stuck here, as moving a large volume of data files across to a machine not meant to store them does not seem like a good option. It also means that we cannot use one GeoServer instance to "point" to multiple locations unless we can get s

Derek, selinux is not present and is not your problem. I tested adding a shapefile using GeoServer 2.5.2, then moving the directory away, and substituting a symlink. The shapefile continued to work. As far as I can tell, you are doing everything right. The user interface is a bit broken in my

That does sound odd? I am jumping into this conversation late - in order to ask you to check the base url setting, you need to use it when deploying GeoServer behind a proxy server. http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/webadmin/server/globalsettings.html That said, if the layer preview is not
