A few days ago I installed GeoServer 2.2.4 on a Windows server as a service. I have been reading through some of the documentation and went through the basic configuration. I worked through one of the shapefile examples, and then published one of my own shapefiles. All of this was done using the web admin page. I was having problems getting my data to display properly, so I was doing some research on the web. I ran across a post that suggested having the data_dir in a different location than the program files. So, I moved it to another location on the same drive and changed the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR system variable to the new location. I could not get the web admin page to open, so I manually stopped the service. When I tried to restart the service, I got "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion". I tried moving the data_dir to the old location and changing the system variable back, but it still did not work. So, I uninstalled the GeoServer program completely. I reinstalled the GeoServer program again as a service and used the default data_dir, which is under the program installation folder. The service will not start. I have tried to start it manually several times and each time I get the Error 1053.
Any suggestions that you may have are GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, Jerome A.
