[Geoserver-users] installation problem

Hi,

I am trying to install geoserver to Centos 6.3 cloud server. I have tried all combinations of tomcat6/war file and the jetty os independant installer. All crashing. See example. Please help.

Please ensure that you are running the JVM in headless mode (so that it won’t attempt to connect to a display.) The simplest way to do this is to add ‘-Djava.awt.headless=true’ to your java command-line arguments. For the standalone installer you can do this by editing the startup script, otherwise please consult the centos documentation for tomcat.

Thanks David. I have installed opengeo community edition and thats working. However, I might create another server and see how this works.
