Hi
Geoserver is usually waterproof to install but I can’t say why it fails for you. For getting a better feeling, try this:
-
Download binary package (zip) http://sourceforge.net/projects/geoserver/files/GeoServer/2.5-RC1/geoserver-2.5-RC1-bin.zip/download
-
Unzip it to somewhere else than either of the “program files” on your computer, for example “gs_test”
-
Double click C:\gs_test\geoserver-2.5-RC1\bin\startup.but
If this fails, open the bat file and set JAVA_HOME here:
cls
echo Welcome to GeoServer!
echo.
set error=0
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Java\jre7_64
rem Write your own jre path above
rem JAVA_HOME not defined
if “%JAVA_HOME%” == “” goto noJava
Retry. This works for me on Windows 7 even without admin rights. Firewall warning appears but it can be closed and Geoserver starts at localhost:8080. Let’s hope that this works and you can start playing with Geoserver.

Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-users] Newbie question: GeoServer web page not starting up
From the start menu, I pick GeoServer Web Admin page, and launch chrome trying to go to: http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web
I get an error in chrome that says:
HTTP ERROR: 404
NOT_FOUND
RequestURI=/geoserver/web
Still no logs being created.
Thanks,
James

Are you using a url that specifies the port eg localhost:8080/geoserver/Web or 192.168.5.100:8080/geoserver/Web
You need to specify the port number you set for jetty when installing.

Hi Mauro,
I stopped Apache, and I don’t have IIS running, so I don’t know what the conflict is. I uninstalled, tried going to localhost, and I get a Chrome error saying Chrome can’t connect to localhost. Then I install 2.4.4, this time on port 8080, and I get a jetty error that says:
HTTP ERROR: 404
NOT_FOUND
RequestURI=/geoserver/web
This is on my 32-bit Windows 7 Pro at home. I really don’t know what I"m doing wrong. This time no log files are being created in the log directory. I installed geoserver as an administrator, so I have no idea.
Thanks,
James

Hi James,
from the log file it seems port 8081 is already occupied by another service. Please, try to use a different one and retry.

When I try either of those URLs, I get an error that says “This page can’t
be displayed”. I’m attaching the wrapper.log, which is the only thing that
seems to be changing when I stop the service and restart it. When I hi t
those URLs, nothing is happening in the log folder.

Hi,
I installed the windows installer, version 2.4.4, as a service, and
not as a
service, put it on port 8081, and can’t get the web service to
answer up to
http://localhost:8081, or http://localhost:8081/geoserver/web. I
have java
JRE 6 installed, and it works with other things. When installed as
a
service, I can see the service is running. Anyway, I’m running
64-bit
Windows 7, on a domain machine, and I’m in an admin group on the
domain.
Any clue as to how to get this going?
Thanks,
James
