Hi Jody,
Thank you for your response. That link was great, now I have JRE correctly
installed!
C:\Users\user>java --version
openjdk 11.0.12 2021-07-20
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-11.0.12+7 (build 11.0.12+7)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-11.0.12+7 (build 11.0.12+7, mixed mode)
Unfortunately, my local host is not recognizing GeoServer:
HTTP ERROR 503 Service Unavailable
URI: /geoserver/
STATUS: 503
MESSAGE: Service Unavailable
SERVLET: -
Powered by Jetty:// 9.4.36.v20210114
I tried both Microsoft Edge and Firefox browsers with the same result/error
message. Any additional advice
Regarding membership, I received an email stating:
Your mail to 'Geoserver-users' with the subject
Unable to Install GeoServer
Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.
The reason it is being held:
Post by non-member to a members-only list
Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive
notification of the moderator's decision. If you would like to cancel
this posting, please visit the following URL:...
Since this is a members-only list, I was wondering what I/my agency can do to
become a member of GeoServer. We intend to host a WFS on GeoServer for the
foreseeable future, so we would like to be more connected to GeoServer
resources.

You may need to add java to your path? That is what the command line example is
trying to check.
Note we have been recommending https://adoptium.net/ (formally AdoptOpenJDK)
because oracle changed their license terms).

Good afternoon, GeoServer support,
I have tried for several days to download and open GeoServer without any luck.
I am trying to download GeoServer 2.19.2 Platform Independent Binary following
the instructions online and this YouTube
tutorial<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7dDVD8WzKo>, in which my process
erred at the 5:45 minute mark. Essentially, I was able to download the package.
I have Java v. 8:
[cid:17c2cab4f93cb971f161]
But, when I run the command to check with version of Java I am using, I receive
this result:
C:\Users\user>java --version
Unrecognized option: --version
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
So, I am thinking I may have a Java issue, but am unaware how to resolve it.
Secondly, when I try and open the localhost:8080/geoserver on Microsoft Edge, I
get this error message:
Hmmm… can't reach this pagelocalhost refused to connect.
Try:
Search the web for localhost
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
Should I be using a different browser?
I tried running the GeoServer batch process as an administrator and I receive
this result:
Welcome to GeoServer!
JAVA_HOME: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_301
The GEOSERVER_HOME environment variable is not defined.
This environment variable is needed to run this program.
Set this environment variable via the following command:
set GEOSERVER_HOME=[path to GeoServer]
Example:
set GEOSERVER_HOME=C:\Program Files\GeoServer
Startup of GeoServer was unsuccessful.
Press any key to continue . . .
I follow those instructions to ser the GeoServer home to the main folder, but
that doesn't seem to fix the issue. I tried this process twice, once in the
Program Files folder for x86 and once in the main C: drive. Both gave me the
same error message.
I will try again tomorrow, but I really am hoping someone from GeoServer might
be able to assist me in getting the platform up and running. Thank you, in
advance, for any support you can provide.
Regards,
Alaina
