Hi Tobia,
Thanks for your reply. I am afraid I don't quite understand what you mean! The 
Tomtcat is in fact installed as a Windows Server but I can not see any Java 
options in its properties!

Hi Ammar,
if you have installed Tomcat as a Windows service I suggest to set the 
GEOSERVER_DATA_DIRinside 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 but I 
am losing all the configurations (layers, datasources, workspaces, etc) when 
doing so. The GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR parameter in the web.xml is commented out and 
instead a Windows environment variable has been created that points to a 
location in the local disk drive. The steps that I have been doing are:1. Copy 
the entire folder that contains the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR to the new target 
location.2. Change the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR Windows environment variable from the 
current location to the new desired one.3. Restart Tomtcat 7.0 service.
When I log on to GeoServer, I find that all the configuration has been deleted 
and instead I get the default workspaces, layers, etc that come by default with 
GeoServer!
What am I doing wrong? Any solutions for this problem?
Regards,Ammar
