Thanks Julien,

I am not sure what to make of stackexcahnge given their recent AI deals.
But we do respect that it is easier for people to quickly ask a question
without signing up to an email list. We are in the process of moving the
user list to Discourse
<https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/GSIP-225> and will announce
the change when we have good instructions ready.

For specific error messages I usually:

   1. Ask for the stack trace in the logs if there is one - this helps find
   where the error occurred. So we can try and guess what it was doing ...
   2. Or searching in the codebase for that phrase: And I found it in the
   low level "image processing library"!!

   So somehow it has calculated a negative row/column reference when trying
   to look up a data value in a raster (or a pixel value in an image).


Q: What kind of data are you working with? And if you have a stack trace in
your logs we may be able to learn more.
