Ryan, there are essentially three ways to define the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR (windows or linux does not matter):
- web.xml - as a variable be it system or environment var(with export) - when you start the process java -D...... please have a look whether you have set something (in the former verwsion probably) that contradicts what you're trying to do in the web.xml Cheers Christian P.S.
