[Geoserver-devel] geoserver 2.0 and error 404

GeoServer GeoServer Developer

Hi,
I am navigating a friend of my to install geoserver 2.0 to his windows
desktop. He run successful the geoserver, but could not find right url to
open it :slight_smile:

In older geoserver when I openned http://localhost:8080 there was something
which directed me to right url. Now he told me that there is just this:

HTTP ERROR: 404

NOT_FOUND

RequestURI=/

Powered by jetty://

In older versions there was "help" and two links as I remember. Imho that
links should be added also to version 2.0 if they are missing.

PS: url http://localhost:8080/geoserver also returns 404 and on web
documentation I found only 1.7 documentation. Sorry if I am not seeing what I
should.

http://localhost:8080 should give you back a list of contexts available and geoserver should be one of them. You can try going directly to http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web and see what happens.

How has GeoServer been installed? What OS? Is it one of the installers or the universal binary?

He installed it in windows (I think w7) environment from instalator (that
next,next,finish thing). Booth of links he tryed with same error. Now he
installed ubuntu linux for dualboot and for serious server environment :slight_smile: I
hope in linux he wont have any proble.

Thanks for reply.
