Binary package installation for Mac, Unix and WindowsHow to set up GeoServer with the binary distribution package (-bin version) for Mac, Unix, and Windows platforms. This is used for manually installing the files and running GeoServer as a Java program without a wrapper such as Tomcat. Jump to: UnixGetting GeoServer geoserver-*-bin.zipAfter downloading the binary distribution, unzip geoserver--bin.zip* file to */usr/local (Recommended). The file will expand the files into /usr/local/geoserver. cd /usr/local unzip -xvzf geoserver-*-bin.zip There are two techniques by which the GeoServer binary distribution can be started. These will run GeoServer as a user program until you stop it (or the computer is restarted). To have it automatically started see the section Loading GeoServer at boot time.
