[Geoserver-users] startup problems with 1.7.3

I started copying all the old stuff into the new directory and found out that it’s the coverage directory that is responsible for the failure. Since I only had two coverages I just created them again.

The update sequence should stay the same if you are using an existing
data directory. As Kris states I would ensure all temp
directories are
removed. Also if you could include the entire start up log that might
help us spot the problem.

Hi Kris

Yes, I already stopped Tomcat, then removed the existing
geoserver-devel.war and geoserver-devel directory and the
geoserver-devel directory from work/Catalina/localhost/.
Shouldn’t the
“update sequence” on the upper left corner of the UI go
back to zero?
I works with the default geoserver directory…?

Hi Stefan,

I just deployed 1.7.3 on my local tomcat and having no
problems at all.

Is it possible that an old version was installed and is
bothering
you now.

If you put the war in the webapps dir make sure you stop tomcat
first and delete the expanded (geoserver directory in webapps)
version and also remove the geoserver directory from
work/Catalina/localhost directory (or similar)

Then start.

Hope this helps

Kris

Hi
I’m not able to run the latest GeoServer (1.7.3) with a
different
data directory. I set the data directory in the web.xml and
restarting Apache Tomcat results in this error:

2009-03-11 08:24:16,455 WARN [geoserver.confg] - Error occured

2009-03-11 08:24:17,632 ERROR [context.ContextLoader] - Context

onfig.WMSConfig]: Constructor threw exception; nested

at

autowireConstructor(ConstructorResolver.java:254)

The data directory is copied from a different server
where GeoServer
1.7.2 is running.

We are using Apache Tomcat 5.5 on a Linux machine and there is
already an old GeoServer running. So I renamed the new one to
geoserver-devel.war. Any help is appreciated!

regards
Stefan

Ok. That makes sense. I don;t have coverages so I had no problems.

Glad you found it.

Cheers Kris
