Hello! 

I have a need for uploading layers with certain projection (see .prj contents below), however Geonode states: 
"Geoserver failed to detect the projection for layer [layer_name]. It doesn't look like EPSG:4326, so backing out the layer." 

I've checked the format, but maybe there is an issue with units? or someting in geoserver?... (sorry I'm newbie in GIS) 

the .prj file has: 
PROJCS["Geographic_Coordinate_System_Transverse_Mercator", 
GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984", 
DATUM["D_WGS_1984", 
SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137.0,298.257223560493]], 
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0], 
UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]], 
PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"], 
PARAMETER["false_easting",2500000.0], 
PARAMETER["false_northing",10001965.7], 
PARAMETER["central_meridian",-69.0], 
PARAMETER["scale_factor",1.0], 
PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0.0], 
UNIT["Meter",1.0]]
