Hi Ammar,
if you have installed Tomcat as a Windows service I suggest to set the
GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR
inside your service properties -> Java -> Java Options. I hope this can
help you.
Regards,
Tobia Di Pisa

> Hello

> I have GeoServer 2.4.1 installed on Windows Server 2008 R2 in a Tomtcat
> 7.0 container. I am trying to change the location of the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR

> 2. Change the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR Windows environment variable from the

> 3. Restart Tomtcat 7.0 service.

> When I log on to GeoServer, I find that all the configuration has been
