Re: [Geoserver-users] GEOSERVER_HOME envrionemnt variable on Ubuntu
Thanks to everyone for your help. The details in Marcin's response put me on the road to understanding what's going on, and everyone else's comments have added to my understanding of the big picture. I now have GeoServer running and the environment variable correctly defined. Thanks!
