17.10 Diagnosing WCS Issues
WCS log files provide diagnostic information.
In the WCS Administration Console , the Service Configuration tab lets you configure logging, and the Log tab lets you visualize and download WCS log files.
This topic explains some error messages and how to deal with them.

An OWS error response may be like the following (reformatted here for readability):
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <ows:ExceptionReport xmlns:ows="http://www.opengis.net/ows/2.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/ows/2.0 http://schemas.opengis.net/ows/2.0/owsExceptionReport.xsd" version="2.0.1"> <ows:Exception exceptionCode="NoApplicableCode" locator="DataSource jdbc/wcs_admin_ds not found"/> </ows:ExceptionReport>
This means that a WCS data source is not configured or that WebLogic Server cannot connect to the database. Setting Up WCS Data Sources for information about configuring WCS data sources.
