Hi, I'm trying to install geoserver (I started with 2.4.3, but also tested 2.4.0 and 2.2.4) with apache tomcat 8 on Ubuntu 12.04.
Tomcat is working fine, and can run example servlets, Geoserver is deployed from the .war file, but will not start, giving generic error message "FAIL - Application at context path /geoserver could not be started". Checking the logs shows: `ERROR [context.ContextLoader] - context initialization failed org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'geoServerLoader' defined in URL [jar:file:/home/XXX/tomcat/webapps/geoserver/WEB-INF/lib/main-2.2.4.jar!/applicationContext.xml]: Cannot resolve reference to bean 'resourceLoader' while setting constructor argument; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'resourceLoader' defined in URL [jar:file:/home/XXX/tomcat/webapps/geoserver/WEB-INF/lib/main-2.2.4.jar!/applicationContext.xml]: initialization of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The resource path [WEB-INF] is not valid.` I haven't modified geoserver or tomcat in any way. I tried looking through tomcat/webapps/geoserver/WEB-INF/lib/main-2.2.4.jar for either geoServerLoader or resourceLoader, but could find neither? WEB-INF definitely exists, and has appropriate permissions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
