Hi Duane, If you have a NullPointerException on that line, it suggests that the object was not properly instantiated, in this case *setWebApplicationServiceFactory*.
A couple reasons for this may be that you're either missing a module or certain settings in cas.properties required to "activate" the service. We've observed our fair share of difficulties stemming from documentation issues alone (CAS 5.1.x here). One we recently submitted [yet another] PR ( #2811 <https://github.com/apereo/cas/pull/2811>) for addresses a *java.lang.ClassNotFoundException* which merely involved changing org.apache.xerces.util.SecurityManager to com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.util.SecurityManager. Also, in case you haven't seen this already (in addition to service configuration for Proxy Authentication): https://apereo.github.io/cas/5.0.x/installation/Configuring-Proxy-Authentication.html Since you're already in the CAS 5 line, have you thought about going straight to CAS 5.1.x to see if the issue has been resolved there? It appears they started to move away from the instantiation methodology present in CAS 5.0.x (ProxyController.java:127 <https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/5.0.x/support/cas-server-support-validation/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/web/ProxyController.java#L127>) to constructor-based in CAS 5.1.x (ProxyController:66 <https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/5.1.x/support/cas-server-support-validation/src/main/java/org/apereo/cas/web/ProxyController.java#L66>) per this issue: https://github.com/apereo/cas/issues/2184 Hope that helps some!
