I figured out what went wrong.
The Cartaro installer used to set GeoServer data folder permissions
before, so now that Cartaro was retired, this code is missing:
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/blob/master/bin/retired/install_cartaro.sh#L381-L385
Lets add this to the GeoNode installer, since that one is
starting/stopping GeoServer for the first time during build.
Thoughts?

Hi Ben,
I saw the same issue in nightly build5.
I am wondering why geoserver has this permission issue, previous
versions used to work fine with this setup.
Best,
Angelos

Angelos,
even with my most recent fixes
<https://github.com/bencaradocdavies/OSGeoLive/tree/upgrade-geoserver>,
GeoServer on a nightly build will still not start.
Looks to me like permissions problems (files and directories in the
data directory whcih are owned by root). Likely culprit is
install_geonode.sh, which starts GeoServer as root "to update layers
in the geonode db", causing the creation of files and directories
owned by root:root. The solution (in install_geonode.sh) might be
something like:
su -c "$GEOSERVER_PATH/bin/startup.sh" - user
but it will take a little fiddling to get this working with
redirection and running in the background. I will let you know when I
have a fix.
Kind regards,
