It may be that it is not a regression per se but related to jre 1.8. I suppose that it could be tested by installing 2.8.3 with exe by pointing to jre8 and trying if Geoserver starts. I begun the test but used old admin password and got my account locked. I fear I can’t get it opened before Friday L

Thanks for testing Jukka, I am looking at where the startup.bat is created in GeoServerEXE.nsi:
${ElseIf} $IsManual == 1 ; manual
FileOpen $9 startup.bat w ; Opens a Empty File and fills it
FileWrite $9 ‘call “$JavaHome\bin\java.exe” -DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=“$DataDir” -Xmx512m -DSTOP.PORT=8079 -DSTOP.KEY=geoserver -Djetty.port=$Port -Djetty.logs=“$INSTDIR\logs” -jar “$INSTDIR\start.jar”’
FileClose $9 ; Closes the file
I am skeptical at making the change without understanding why this regression is occurring …

Hi,
Windows exe-installer creates a startup.bat file that does not start. For some reason the batch file must be run from GEOSERVER_HOME, not from GEOSERVER_HOME\bin. I am remembering that change to jre8 had this effect with older Geoserver versions as well.
Adding “cd …” manually fixes the issue:
REM does not start without the next line
cd…
REM startup.bat created by the installer follows
call “C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_72\bin\java.exe” -DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=“C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.9-beta2\data_dir” -Xmx512m -DSTOP.PORT=8079 -DSTOP.KEY=geoserver -Djetty.port=8080 -Djetty.logs=“C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.9-beta2\logs” -jar “C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.9-beta2\start.jar”After fixing the launch file Geoserver starts. Login fails still from some pages, for example from About GeoServer with the familiar error
Problem accessing /geoserver/web/wicket/j_spring_security_check. Reason:
Not FoundOnce logged in from the main page things seem to work. One small glitch:
Go to workspace settings, check Settings-Enabled
→ Enabled box gets covered by the title Primary Contact and can’t be unchecked. Tested with Firefox 45.0.2.-Jukka Rahkonen-

GeoWebCache Version 1.9-beta2 (rev master/806006ed652e11d6f3d4ea694d15a16a989a4852)On trying to log in, it just goes to:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web/wicket/j_spring_security_checkLayer preview seems good - tried each layer, and tried each output format for the Tasmanian Cities (city) layer. All seem OK (well, the world polygon looked ugly and grey, but it always does, so that is still tolerable :-)).
