| Feb 13, 2011 at 16:42 | comment | added | user1899 | I have downloaded and installed GeoServer 2.1-RC1 which shipped with RESTconfig. How can i check whether REST service is installed with GeoServer or Not ? I put this "localhost:8080/geoserver/rest" in my browser, but it gives error! ... It means REST service is not installed as i understand. Or is there any other method to check whether the service is installed or not ? Secondly how i publish my data using REST service on Geoserver ? | |

| Feb 10, 2011 at 18:02 | comment | added | relima | docs.geoserver.org/2.0.0/user/extensions/rest/index.html will guide you through the rest plugin; wfs is different protocol; there are several protocols for connection; the one you were using is rest - which comes with arcgis server - geoserver can do rest, but wms and wfs are its standards by default. | |
| Feb 10, 2011 at 17:09 | comment | added | user1899 | How can i check either the Rest plugin is installed or not ? and with the Rest plugin, can i use this code: queryTask = new esri.arcgis.gmaps.QueryTask("http://(localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs"); | |
| Feb 10, 2011 at 16:50 | comment | added | relima | If the api allows for wfs; it would be more common for it to accept wms. Your original source was pointing to "rest"; to install rest support on geoserver you need a special plugin; but see if you can make it work with wms or wfs | |
| Feb 10, 2011 at 16:41 | comment | added | user1899 | Thanks again, You mean I have to use this(localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs) line of code in place of ("sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/…); am i right ? | |
| Feb 10, 2011 at 15:41 | comment | added | relima | @user1899, if you go into the demo section of geoserver's administration web page, you can see examples of links to multiple services that you can use. Note that the rest service is only installed by default if you have the latest release candidate. Otherwise, you will need to install the rest plugin to make the same type of query you have been doing. | |
| Feb 10, 2011 at 15:16 | comment | added | user1899 | I have downloaded and installed geoserver and publish one shapefile. Now how can i access that shapefile to use its featureSet ? From Esri sample server we access the file by using following code: queryTask = new esri.arcgis.gmaps.QueryTask("sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/…); Similarly like code above, which piece of code i use to access .shp file from geoserver ? | |
| Feb 8, 2011 at 13:27 | comment | added | relima | Is your code part of the google maps api that esri provides? If that is the case, there is no way of serving a shapefile pointing directly to it. If you just want to have access to the raw .shp file -- to use in arcmap, for example --, create a shared directory on the network if it is a local network; or setup a vpn for a remote connection. | |
| Feb 8, 2011 at 12:33 | comment | added | user1899 | Thanks for reply. Actually i want to access shapefiles form our web server 172.20.100.12/Demo as you see from code.
