Seeking GeoServer tutorials?

Question

What are sources where I can learn how to use GeoServer?

I know of these two sites:

• http://geoserver.org/ - which in fact is not working (at least at the moment)
• http://workshops.opengeo.org/geoserver-intro/ - not only (tutorials) for GeoServer

But I am interested in more complex information, and not to read only documentation.

Answer 1

I have some notes and tutorials on setting GeoServer up and building web mapping apps at http://ian01.geog.psu.edu.

Answer 2

I found this is also a good one: https://khayer.wordpress.com/category/gis/openlayer/, which talks about how to integrate Openlayers with Geoserver

Answer 3

Although it is a 'quickstart' and may not qualify as more complex information, I found this quite thorough and useful, it uses the geoserver installation on the osgeolive image/bootable disk. I use the virtual machine with the free VMware Player:

Answer 4
