Hi,

Windows exe-installer creates a startup.bat file that does not start.  For some 
reason the batch file must be run from GEOSERVER_HOME, not from 
GEOSERVER_HOME\bin. I am remembering that change to jre8 had this effect with 
older Geoserver versions as well.

Adding "cd .." manually fixes the issue:

REM does not start without the next line
cd..
REM startup.bat created by the installer follows
call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_72\bin\java.exe" 
-DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR="C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.9-beta2\data_dir" 
-Xmx512m -DSTOP.PORT=8079 -DSTOP.KEY=geoserver -Djetty.port=8080 
-Djetty.logs="C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.9-beta2\logs" -jar "C:\Program 
Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.9-beta2\start.jar"

After fixing the launch file Geoserver starts. Login fails still from some 
pages, for example from About GeoServer with the familiar error
Problem accessing /geoserver/web/wicket/j_spring_security_check. Reason:
    Not Found

Once logged in from the main page things seem to work. One small glitch:
Go to workspace settings, check Settings-Enabled
-> Enabled box gets covered by the title Primary Contact and can't be 
unchecked. Tested with Firefox 45.0.2.

Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-devel] geoserver 2.9-beta2 preflight testing

Testing with the war on Tomcat (7.0.52) on Kubuntu 14.04 plus all the package 
updates to today.

GeoServer Version 2.9-beta2
Git Revision 7026d8e9a934f2e854c8116e5a8ac52063c3c11c
Build Date 19-Apr-2016 03:28
GeoTools Version 15-beta2 (rev c38b6f373bdb76a731b78cba0e1cb58f7ce06288)
GeoWebCache Version 1.9-beta2 (rev 
master/806006ed652e11d6f3d4ea694d15a16a989a4852)

On trying to log in, it just goes to:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/web/wicket/j_spring_security_check

Layer preview seems good - tried each layer, and tried each output format for 
the Tasmanian Cities (city) layer. All seem OK (well, the world polygon looked 
ugly and grey, but it always does, so that is still tolerable :-)).
