Hello all,
We are currently using 2.5.1, now successfully about 5 months.
Today we run out of disk space, due to daily backups. Disk space is now cleaned and there is about 40GB free on disk.
After this cleaning I rebooted server, but Geoserver won't start anymore. Tomcat is ok.
From system logs (catalina.out), I found following lines:
18 Nov 18:23:39 INFO [storage.DefaultStorageBroker] - Destroying StorageBroker
18 Nov 18:23:39 WARN [support.DisposableBeanAdapter] - Invocation of destroy method failed on bean with name 'geoServerLoader': org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationNotAllowedException: Error creating bean with name 'GWCLifeCycleHandler': Singleton bean creation not allowed while the singletons of this factory are in destruction (Do not request a bean from a BeanFactory in a destroy method implementation!)

at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.BeanDefinitionValueResolver.resolveReference(BeanDefinitionValueResolver.java:329)
How to solve this?
