Assuming you are on windows (you mention .bat), you can do a number of things:
Check the Services in windows Control Panel --> Administrative --> Services. Look for the Geoserver entry and make sure it is actually running and not disabled or stopped. You can start it from here and set it to enabled as well
Make sure you are navigating correctly to the right url. It should be
http://localhost:8080/geoserver
or whatever port you nominated when you installed Geoserver with the windows installer
I solved this with these steps on OSGeoLive 8.5
Geoserver was not able to Start after in installed Lubuntu.
i saw that there was no permission to write in the geoserver path, so i did
sudo chmod 777 -R /usr/local/lib/geoserver-2.6.1
i started geoserver in terminal again and saw the error
java.net.BindException: Address already in use
so i looked up, which process it is, thats using port 8082 with
lsof -i :8082
in my case it was java with pid 4217
so:
kill -9 <<pid>>
and closing firefox made the geoserver starting finally :)
hope it helps you folks
I've had the same issue on windows.
The start up batch file would not work for me.
My solution was to open a cmd.exe window running as a Administrator and navigate to the batch files,
>cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\GeoServer 2.4.5\bin
and run this
>startup.bat
from the prompt.
I got the same problem in Windows 7 and GeoServer. But, in my case, the problem was related to using Tomcat 8! I uninstalled the 8 version, installed Tomcat 7 and everything went OK. Check your Tomcat version.
I "solved" this by uninstalling and installing again. Lost everything I had but it's faster to do everything anew than finding out why geoserver stopped working.
I installed java SDK 7, tomcat and geoserver. I got the same error 404. The cause of this was a port binding error for GEO Server. I changed the tomcat port to 8081 as described in this article After the restart of the PC http://localhost:8080/geoserver started to work. I found this information in wrapper.log
