Hi Folks I am trying to get some basic details straight so please bare with me :)
Firstly I am a bit confused as to the relationship between opengeosuite and geoserver. On my mac both install an application called geoserver. I started out with the suite but when I tried the qgis opengeo plugin it complained about the version of geoserver. I then installed geoserver 2.5.1 and the plugin still bitched :) In the last week or so I have been working trough issues with the plugin but now have some layers “published”. I remembered geoexplorer from my initial play around with geoserver suite but was surprised when the url returned 404. I have come to the conclusion that installing geoserver does not include the explorer functionality. To get that I need to install the full suite. Correct? I also conclude that the suite is not updated often and lags substantially behind the server install. I am now left wondering what to do. I take it I need explorer to provide a reasonable interface for users and do more than simply preview layers one at a time? Can both versions coexist and share a data_dir? Hmmmm… the two versions put their data_dir in radically different places! What version of geoserver should I be using to work with the qgis plugin? Can I use it with the server version in the suite? (2.4.snapshot) Any help much appreciated!
