I am trying to load WFS from geoserver. my geoserver is at localhost:8080 and webserver at localhost:80. Since there is a problem of crossdomain and my firebug showing "XMLHttpRequest cannot load *http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs. Origin *http://localhost is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin" I have created a proxy.cgi following http://www.gistutor.com/geoserver/21-intermediate-geoserver-tutorials/38-configuring-geoserver-proxy-for-public-and-remote-data-access.html. But when I go to *http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi its giving me openlayers site,when there is no proxy and just leading to *http://localhost/xampp, when there is a proxy(here proxy is my institute proxy to connect to internet )..
My problem is I am able to load the data from geoserver successfully(as if everything is fine) but my firebug is showing "POST *http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Fgeoserver%2Fwfs undefined (undefined)". I am including OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url="; in my JS and
protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({ version: "1.0.0", srsName: "EPSG:4326", // this is the default url: "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs", featureType: "states", featureNS: "http://www.openplans.org/topp" }),
I want to know why its working fine still giving me the error, Whats the error is about and how to fiix it......
Any help is highly appreciated..........
