Hi, I have completed deployment of the Geoserver 1.4.0 WAR file in Tomcat
5.0.28, using Java version j2sdk1.4.2_12.
I can get localhost:8080/geoserver to display, but I cannot get the demos to
work. The links load (i.e., http://localhost:8080/geoserver/mapPreview.do),
but the maps themselves do not load.
Also, if I load my own shapefile using the web admin interface, it generates
an entry in the MapPreview page (/geoserver/mapPreview.do), but I get the
same effect when loading that page.
Since I am running Geoserver as a WAR, I cannot see any console output such
as Java exceptions or the kind of info the startup.sh script gives.
From searching the forum, I believe the issue has to do with a bug in
geoserver related to where the data is stored. I believe this to be the
case, since the browser's status bar displays "transferring data from
localhost..." and it appears to be trying to load the map data.

I believe this is mostly known bugs in 1.4.x, that I believe should be fixed in the next release (coming very soon). Brent, what's the status on the release? Will these bugs be fixed?
As for running geoserver as a war, output should go to the logs of your servlet container, in tomcat's case it's logs/catalina.out I believe. You can also set a log location within geoserver.

I haven't had any of those issues with the current svn version of geoserver 1.4, but I haven't tried the war yet. I will give it a go and see if it is still a problem.

Please do verify and let me know if it's a bug in that release. In my first
try with geoserver, I installed it standalone, using jetty as the servlet
container, and had the same issue. The issue did disappear, but certainly
not by any change I made, since I just rebooted my linux box and ran
geoserver through startup.sh and it worked.
At any rate, what version of geoserver (as a WAR file) is available that
does not have this known issue?

Well, I did see in the release notes for 1.4 that the WFS demos do not work.
I just undeployed geoserver 1.4 and deployed 1.3.0a (also as a WAR inside
Tomcat), but I get the same results.
I wonder about the GEOSERVER_HOME and GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR variables. Are
these meaningless for a WAR deployment of Geoserver?
What gives?

The demos are not working in the 1.4 release, it is not your machine.
1.4 is in an experimental state, but we didn't make it clear enough. A new release will be out soon with the demos back in.
The SVN version is the live version from the working repository. You can head to http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDEV/Developers+Guide to learn how to grab it.

How are you setting up your geoserver_data_dir value? From the war file it might not pick it up as an environment variable and you will have to modify the web.xml file to point at the proper data_dir.
Here is the page that says how to set up the data_dir in your web.xml file:

There was a change to make the demo files non data directory dependent
so that they work in any install of geoserver. Perhaps something has
gone a miss.
However, installing the old version and having the same results make me
think this is something I have ran into before. A couple of times i have
seen the map preview just stop working when i am installing,
reinstalling geoserver on my machine. Can you humor me by pointing a
different web browser at the preview screen and see what happens.
