Hi Christy, Let's look at the code of this static getRequest() method:
public static HttpServletRequest getRequest(Request request) { HttpServletRequest result = null; if (request instanceof HttpRequest) { final HttpCall httpCall = ((HttpRequest) request).getHttpCall(); if (httpCall instanceof ServletCall) { result = ((ServletCall) httpCall).getRequest(); } } return result; } You see that we are looking for a HttpRequest instance (your case), then we extract the "httpCall" property from it. In your case, it is probably not an instance of ServletCall? If so, I would need to understand why. What is your architecture and the way to integrate Restlet and Spring. Are you relying on ServerServlet adapter?

The full name of the "request" variable that I pass to the getRequest() static method is com.noelios.restlet.http.HttpRequest. I've also attached the stack trace below for the NPE.
