This is an FYI for the installation of Geoserver 2.16-RC into a UNIX environment
Last week I installed Geoserver 2.16-RC onto my development server. The configuration is: UNIX OS: Solaris 11 Tomcat 8.5.4 JVM 1.8.0_102-b14 The Geoserver data files are stored outside of Tomcat on the file system and I am using the Oracle DB plugin I had no issue with installing Geoserver, but when I installed the Oracle plugin (the 2.16-RC version) and changed the data directory Geoserver would not start. I reverted to a fresh install and then added the oracle plugin and restarted Geoserver. This happened with no problem. I then stopped Geoserver and altered the data directory location in web.xml and restarted. This time Geoserver was working as expected and all my layers were available. My set up currently has about 85 layers with most of them being vector layers. Several layers are WMTS that come from an ArcGIS web service. I have had no issues with this new release since the installation. ________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER The information in this transmission may be confidential and/or protected by legal professional privilege, and is intended only for the person or persons to whom it is addressed.
