[OpenLayers-Users] Request with wrong column name

[Luís de Sousa]

Hello Gabriel,

Thank you for your reply. I add the geometryName property to the WFS
constructor; it now is:

wfs = new OpenLayers.Layer.WFS(
                "Tanques",
                "/geoserver/wms",
                {typename: 'insaar:M_TANQUE',
                 srs: 'EPSG:82176'
                },
                {
                    typename: "M_TANQUE",
                    featureNS: "http://insaar.inag.pt",
                    geometryName: "shape",
                    commitReport: function() {
                    },
                    extractAttributes: true,
                }
            );

This had no effect, in the request the feature is still identified with
"the_geom". I could change the column name in the database, but would prefer
some workaround with the code.

Thanks,

Luís
