Hi All,

Excuse me if my etiquette isn't up-to-scratch, this is my first time
posting on this mailing list.

I have been fighting with a bug for some time when working with
GeoServer, GeoExt and OpenLayers. When I try to load a WFS layer,
nothing happens. No connection attempt is made to the server and no
errors are displayed. If, however, I try to load the same data as WMS,
from the same server with similar parameters, the layer loads
correctly.

Examples of my code are:

       var geoserverWMS = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
         "Geoserver WMS: Itasca Lakes",
         "http://172.16.172.129:8080/geoserver/wms",
         {layers: "prco303:itasca", transparent: "true"},
         {isBaseLayer: false, projection: "EPSG:26915"}
         );

       var geoserver = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector( "GeoServer WFS:
Itasca Lakes", {
         strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX()],
         protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
             url: "http://172.16.172.129:8080/geoserver/wfs",
             featureType: "prco303:itasca",
             featureNS: "http://172.16.172.129",
             })
         });

I have whittled away at the parts of the system until I am attempting
to run the WFS example
(http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/wfs-states.html) on my own server
and am faced with the same problem.

Unfortunately, I have run out of ideas to test next. I would be very
grateful if someone could give me some idea of what I am doing wrong
or at least a suggestion for how to continue debugging.

Thanks in advanced for your help.

Yours sincerely,
