[Geoserver-users] [bulk]: Re: Geoserver fails to start - SOLVED!

Hello all,

Stefan made a guess:

Try using tomcat6 if the problem is still there.

He is right. I tried to install geoserver on CentOs 5.8 & tomcat5.
After I create a new server (CentOs 6) and installed tomcat6 & geoserver there, there is no problem. Geoserver runs smoothly.

Thank's all!

Finally I found some time to this.

I'm still without success :frowning:

I'm unable to install newer tomcat (now 5) bacause of my hosting service.
After clean installation of 2.3, I check thru all logs.

There are two messages, which caught my eye.

>INFO: Deploying web application archive geoserver.war
>Mar 22, 2013 11:28:29 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile
>INFO: validateJarFile(/usr/share/tomcat5/webapps/geoserver/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar) - jar not loaded. >See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class
>
Seems to be only information

And then message, where starting up fails:
java.lang.RuntimeException: XPathFactory#newInstance() failed to create an XPathFactory for the default object model: http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom with the XPathFactoryConfigurationException: javax.xml.xpath.XPathFactoryConfigurationException: No XPathFctory implementation found for the object model: http://java.sun.com/jaxp/xpath/dom

Anybody?
