Hello Jody, I have had no luck in running GeoServer under Java 8. I keep seeing on the website that it is compatible but that’s not the case with me. For instance, I just downloaded the WAR file of this new release and put in Tomcat and restarted but it doesn’t run. I have other webapps in my Tomcat installation and they run fine. Any clue on what’s going on? My java below:
PS C:\Web\Tomcat\bin> java -version java version "1.8.0_91" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-b14) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.91-b14, mixed mode) PS C:\Web\Tomcat\bin> Your help will be much appreciated.
