After doing some basic OpenLayers examples where I used WMS layers from WMS providers like this: http://maps.opengeo.org/geowebcache/service/wms, I wanted then to add a WMS layer from my GeoServer. I tried this but all I get is an empty page:
map = new OpenLayers.Map('map_element');
var wms = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
"Routes_Maroc",
"http://localhost:8080/geoserver/PFE/wms",
{'layers': 'PFE:morocco_highway'},
{}
);
map.addLayers([wms]);
};
Where PFE is the GeoServer workspace containing the PostGIS layer morocco_highway as in the image below: I couldn't post the image, they told me I need 10 reputation :(
Is there something wrong with the layer parameters in GeoServer or with the code (missing properties in the WMS object)?
Here is the script section of the code of the OpenLayers preview in GeoServer of "morocco_highway" layer:
