Bruce, That is strange. Could you please try to debug the exact Null variable that causes the Exception. In EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX, it says:
private void createWebContext(final WebApplication appInfo, URL warUrl, final WebDescriptorParser webAppParser) throws Exception { ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); WebMetaData metaData = appInfo.getMetaData(); String ctxPath = metaData.getContextRoot(); appInfo.setName(warUrl.getPath()); appInfo.setClassLoader(loader); appInfo.setURL(warUrl); final StandardContext context = (StandardContext) catalina.createContext(ctxPath, warUrl.getFile()); The last line being the exception-raising 354 one after my count. If warUrl would be null, then it should already crash at 351, shouldn´t it? If catalina would be null, my guess is that the whole service would be flawed ... Can you get any other web application to run under catalina? What about the management-console? It would be a tremendous help if you could find out what jboss-net.war in sar makes different to other services (and IMHO it should work with the compressed version, too, maybe you need to compress both the war/wsr ingredients and the jboss-net.sar?

I tried archiving the jboss.net.sar (instead of its new unpacked deployment), but this meant that jboss didn't see the jboss.net.war directory. I tried archiving the jboss.net.war directory, and that didn't work either. I tried amending the jboss-web.xml file to take in <context-root>jboss-net</context-root> but that didn't help either. The problem seems to come from catalina not finding the context as per the stack trace: 2002-09-10 12:44:27,953 DEBUG [org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] webContext: null 2002-09-10 12:44:27,953 DEBUG [org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] warURL: file:/D:/jboss-src/jboss-all/build/output/jboss-4.0.0alpha/server/default/de ploy/jboss-net.sar/jboss-net.war/ 2002-09-10 12:44:27,953 DEBUG [org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] webAppParser: org.jboss.web.AbstractWebContainer$DescriptorParser@b5c22f 2002-09-10 12:44:28,113 INFO [org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] deploy, ctxPath=/jboss-net, warUrl=file:/D:/jboss-src/jboss-all/build/output/jboss-4.0.0alpha/server/def ault/deploy/jboss-net.sar/jboss-net.war/ 2002-09-10 12:44:28,123 ERROR [org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX] Error during deploy java.lang.NullPointerException at org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX.createWebContext(EmbeddedCa talinaServiceSX.java:354) at org.jboss.web.catalina.EmbeddedCatalinaServiceSX.performDeploy(EmbeddedCatal inaServiceSX.java:296) Any clues/hints on how to resolve this greatly appreciated as always. BTW the readme.html under the cvs will also need updating, as its suggestions on integrating tomcat/catalina are now out of date. cheers, Bruce Dr. Bruce Scharlau Dept. of Computing Science University of Aberdeen Aberdeen AB24 3UE 01224 272193 http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/~bscharla mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
