[Geoserver-users] Layer group is missing

[Peter Watt]

Hello all,

I have an issue with my geoserver where the layer groups that I have made
are no longer in the 'layer group' list. I first thought that they had
somehow deleted themselves, but when i go to make them again (in the same
workspace), I get an error message that layer group already exists in that
workspace. I try to access the layer groups via WMS but i get no results so
it looks like these layers are not there, but i cannot recreate them. Any
thoughts about what I can do to fix this?

This error occurred after the following happened:
- We had a number of layer groups covering Australia
- I added them all to another layer group and set the mode to named tree
- I downloaded the layer as KML to view in Google earth as a test.
- The KML gave a whole bunch of broken links
- I looked at the layer groups in Geoserver and they were all gone.

Thanks!

Peter

Hi Peter,
honestly, I have no clue, can't remember seeing this happen.
Maybe it's security related? But you'd have to be workspace admin with
some access limitation.

Is it something you can reproduce on a clean GeoServer installation using
only the demo data?
Does it get better if you restart GeoServer?

Regards,

Andrea Aime
