[OpenLayers-Users] WFS geometry problem from openlayers after moving to Geoserver 2.0

[Phil Scadden]

Issues here.
                                        filter: new 
OpenLayers.Filter.Spatial({
                                            property: "SHAPE",
                                            type: 
OpenLayers.Filter.Spatial.DWITHIN,
                                            distance: 
map.getExtent().getHeight() / 10000000,
                                            distanceUnits: "degree",
                                            value: e.feature.geometry
                                        }),
I set up a filter on a layer,  (SDE now coming from Geoserver 2.0).
It generates a POST of

|<wfs:GetFeature xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" service="WFS" version="1.1.0" xsi:schemaLocation||="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org||/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><wfs:Query typeName="MYLAYER" srsName="EPSG:900913">||<ogc:Filter xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"><ogc:DWithin><ogc:PropertyName>the_geom</ogc:PropertyName||><gml:Point xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" srsName="EPSG:900913"><gml:pos>19372200.445898 -4657155||.2587109</gml:pos></gml:Point><ogc:Distance units="degree">0.46082355604312003</ogc:Distance></ogc:DWithin||></ogc:Filter></wfs:Query></wfs:GetFeature>

note the property name of "the_geom".

This gets a wfs response of:
|

|<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
||<ows:ExceptionReport version="1.0.0"
||  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ows http://maps.gns.cri.nz:80/geoserver/schemas/ows/1.0||.0/owsExceptionReport.xsd"
||  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows">
||  <ows:Exception exceptionCode="InvalidParameterValue">
||    <ows:ExceptionText>Illegal property name: the_geom</ows:ExceptionText>
||  </ows:Exception>
||</ows:ExceptionReport>

Quite correct - because the geometry is in SHAPE not in the_geom.

What am I doing wrong or has an incompatibility developed with geoserver?
