[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers and GeoWebCache on GeoServer

[gbrun]

I'm sorry, I'm not used to work with Google layers! :(

One of the most common problem using GeoWebCache and OpenLayers together  
is that you need to specify appropriate resolutions/scales in your  
OpenLayers map. These resolutions/scales should also appear in your  
GeoWebCache layers configuration.

By the way, in GeoServer, you can identify the GeoWebCache error (if you  
use a GeoWebCache embedded in your GeoServer) in the log file (or in the  
panel admin). You can take a look at it!
