Problem with GeoServer WFS URL

Question

I am having problem when I am Requesting following URL in GeoServer

/geoserver/wfs?REQUEST=GetFeature&VERSION=1.1.0&typename=Final&propertyname=name&service=WFS&

I am getting following error:

</ows:ExceptionText>
</ows:Exception>
</ows:ExceptionReport>

Can any one help in resolving this issue?

Answer 1

Check that your postgres database is working properly and the DataStore definition in GeoServer is correct: port, host name, etc.

GeoServer is telling you that it can't connect to to postgres.
