Anyway, it is fixed now so that is fine.

Hi Paul,
I’ve diffed the 2.6.x and 2.8.x web.xml files and found the following:
git diff 2.6.x…2.8.x – app/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml

I believe theactual issue was caused the change of the SetCharacterEncodingFilter package, as there
is nothing left in GeoServer using the versioning variable.
I believe you should have found one error about that, but not in the GeoServer logs, more likely in the
container ones instead (e.g., Tomcat catalina.out or something like that).
Cheers

Hi,
I’ve been battling to upgrade a 2.6.x version of GeoServer to 2.8.x.
The issue was that the GeoServer would just shutdown on load without an error message:
2016-07-04 12:56:11,819 INFO [geoserver.security] - AuthenticationCache Eviction Task created to run every 600 seconds
2016-07-04 12:56:11,944 INFO [georss.GeoRSSPoller] - destroy() invoked
…
2016-07-04 12:56:13,007 WARN [support.DisposableBeanAdapter] - Invocation of destroy method failed on bean with name ‘geoServerLoader’: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationNotAllowedException: Error creating bean with name ‘geoWebCacheExtensions’: 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!)
I have now identified the cause and I thought I’d share it just incase anyone else gets the problem.
We originally used the Web.xml file to set the data directory for the GeoServer and eventually moved the setting into the JVM options. I had left a custom version of the Web.xml file in my installation directory which meant I was overwriting the file whenever I installed a new version of GeoServer.
It appears that the following entry has been removed from the web.xml in the package for 2.8.4.
enableVersioning
true
Once I replaced the web.xml with the packaged version the server loaded again.
The upgrade page (http://docs.geoserver.org/maintain/en/user/installation/upgrade.html) and migration page (http://docs.geoserver.org/maintain/en/user/datadirectory/migrating.html#migrating-data-directory) in the documentation do not appear to have any notes relating to the move from 2.6.x to 2.8.x so perhaps this email will assist anyone else who uses a custom web.xml and encounters the same issue. The GeoServer logs will not provide much assistance in identifying the cause if this is your problem.
Best Regards,
Paul Wittle
