I sucessfully installed the 1.5.0beta version of Geoserver after installing all the required java extras.
However I opened the .prj file and I'm having a really hard time understanding what it all means and determining an SRS:
[code]
PROJCS["GDA_1994_MGA_Zone_55",GEOGCS["GCS_GDA_1994",DATUM["D_GDA_1994",SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",500000.0],PARAMETER["False_Northing",10000000.0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",147.0],PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",0.9996],PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",0.0],UNIT["Meter",1.0]][/code]
Well, by looking at the supported srs list (http://localhost:8080/geoserver/srsHelp.do, you can find a link
in the feature type editor form) and doing a search for DGA you
can find lots of them, and also for MGA.
With some more effort you can find your code, which is 28355:
PROJCS["GDA94 / MGA zone 55", GEOGCS["GDA94", DATUM["Geocentric Datum of Australia 1994", SPHEROID["GRS 1980", 6378137.0, 298.257222101, AUTHORITY["EPSG","7019"]], TOWGS84[0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0], AUTHORITY["EPSG","6283"]], PRIMEM["Greenwich", 0.0, AUTHORITY["EPSG","8901"]], UNIT["degree", 0.017453292519943295], AXIS["Geodetic longitude", EAST], AXIS["Geodetic latitude", NORTH], AUTHORITY["EPSG","4283"]], PROJECTION["Transverse Mercator", AUTHORITY["EPSG","9807"]], PARAMETER["central_meridian", 147.0], PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin", 0.0], PARAMETER["scale_factor", 0.9996], PARAMETER["false_easting", 500000.0], PARAMETER["false_northing", 10000000.0], UNIT["m", 1.0], AXIS["Easting", EAST], AXIS["Northing", NORTH], AUTHORITY["EPSG","28355"]]
