Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Dear All, I am attempting to enable JSP on my Apache 1.1.13 server using Apache JServ 1.1 and the Java Sun Web Development Kit (JSWDK1.1) on the Windows NT platform. After spending an exhausting couple of days fighting in out with the JServ configuration files and have finally reached the point where JSP pages are correctly passed to the com.sun.jsp.runtime.JspServlet and are compiled into .java files. I even managed (shock) to get the .java file to compile to a .class file, but when the .class file itself is executed I get a NullPointerException. I know for sure that the correct JAR files and class directories are being passed to the wrapper.classpath property and the repositories file. I 'know' why the JSP page is throwing an exception: an examination of the generated, pre-compiled .java file reveals that when the _jspService() method of the generated class is called, the _finally_ block runs the following command: out.flush() which is causing the exception, implying that out == null, but why would this be when everything compiles properly, I cannot fathom. Perhaps the _jspService() file was passed a null value for out initially and the _finally_ block is merely throwing an exception of its own after the first time a method from the null out variable was encountered( this method threw an exception as well and then, after the catch block is run the finally block is run). I hope that is clear. I am sorry I cannot provide log/config files but at the moment I am unable to access your mailing list from work so I am writing this from my home account. Yours gratefully...
