Thanks Ian!
Based on the logs the first issue was a permission denied and I was able to
resolve it by changing ownership on .../Catalina/work from root to tomcat.
The second issue was that my layer had spaces and brackets in it. When
these are removed and the layer is called KP_Marker_C18 the shapefile
export works!
It would be a nice enhancement to have the function replace special
characters with underscores during a shapefile export.
Thanks again,
Vera
For reference the second error was:
2019-01-04 12:29:29,859 WARN [data.shapefile] - Error while writing
featuretype 'KP Marker (C18)' to shapefile.
