Hi,

What happens if you use an empty NAME?

Yes, it's with a WMS request. Apache throws a 500 error "End of script output before headers". I define a LAYER with a GROUP but no NAME. I don't believe METADATA plays into it because I commented out the METADATA block and it fails in the same way.

Hi Richard,

Do you have more details - is this when using WMS? Is there an error that appears?
For WMS there is a known conflict between GROUP and wms_layer_group in a METADATA block, but this sounds like something different.

I didn't see mention of this in the docs, apologies if I missed it. It appears that as of 8.0 a layer must have a NAME. In the past it has been possible for a layer not to have a NAME if it had a  GROUP.
