To anyone interested: deploying Geoserver (I've used 1.5.4) in Tomcat 5.5 in Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10) leads to Tomcat not starting again.
The error I get on the console when restarting Tomcat is this:
* Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat5.5 rm: cannot remove `/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp/Geotools': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp/Geotools/Databases': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp/Geotools/Databases/HSQL': Is a directory
If I understand well, the first execution of Geoserver makes Geotools created a subdirectory into the Tomcat's temp directory.
Unfortunately, the startup script (/etc/init.d/tomcat5.5) isn't able to remove subdirectories and the startup fail!
This has definitely been a source of pain in a number of cases.
Does anyone know if there's a way we can get GeoServer to create those temp files in the data directory perhaps? I mean, it's a place that is guaranteed to have the proper read/write access on the system, since it needs to be configured right for geoserver to work / save configuration.

Possibly... I think you can set the java.io.tmpdir property in the vm...
but I am not sure how well that would work... especially in a web
container. I am not sure if there is a way to tell hsql where to store
the epsg database on disk, or if it always uses the o/s temp directory.
That is a question for Martin I believe.

Another alternative is to switch to javadb or h2, both allow for
in classpath databases now. I just haven't had time to act on
this one.
Specifying a path for the epsg database to be created in is easier,
one has to set the "EPSG-HSQL.directory" system variable to point
the db to another directory.
