[Geoserver-users] Geoserver can´t Start - Error Creating Bean

Hi All,

My Box is a Centos-6.5, java 1.7.0.65, tomcat7, GeoServer 2.5.2.

I´ve just installed GeoServer and can´t bring it up. (I have other machines with previous releases working fine)

I´ve checked the jar files (gs-rest and gs-rest-config) and the mentioned file ‘storedFileFinder’ is there.

Any suggestions ? I´ ve browsed similar topics but the classpath continues enigmatic for me.

Thanks in advance.
