Hi,
I am trying to upgrade from Geoserver 2.0 to 2.0.1 however when choosing my
old 2.0 data directory during the installation I get an error message saying
"No valid GeoServer data directory found in folder:". Is there anything I
need to do to my old data directory to make it compatible for version 2.0.1?
Im using the Windows installer.

I have tried installing Geoserver using the default location for the
data directory and then tried to change the directory in the web.xml
as follows:
<context-param>
<param-name>GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR</param-name>
<param-value>D:\geoserverdata</param-value>
</context-param>
However when I startup Geoserver it is still using the old data
directory and the log says it is getting this from the context
parameter:
09 Feb 11:15:16 INFO [storage.DefaultStorageFinder] - *** Found
Servlet context parameter GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR set to C:\Program
Files\GeoServer 2.0.1\data_dir, using it as the default prefix. ***
Is this context parameter not used anymore? Because when I change it
the server still uses the default data directory.

The Windows installer looks for the existence of either a global.xml file (for 2.0 datadirs) or a catalog.xml (for 1.7 datadirs). Can you verify that one of those files exists in the directory that you've selected? Is that directory local or on a UNC path?
Thanks,
