Avoid security migration whenever possible

Issue Type:

ImprovementImprovement

Affects Versions:

2.3-beta1

Assignee:

Components:

Security

Created:

Description:

There are 2 situations where security migration can be avoided.

  1. A fresh geoserver 2.3.x install. The directory date/release/security has to be prepared. The admin password is geoserver, the master password is geoserver too.

  2. System test setup. The security.zip file is modified and includes the result of
    migration from 2.1->2.2 and 2.2–>2.3

The java keystore file cannot be prepared in advance. Sad but true, it is not possible to open a keystore created with Oracle jdk with an IBM jdk. Keystore creation happens on the fly.
