OK.
Happens on both WinXp and Win2K
Both are tomcat 5.5.15, Java 1.5.0_06-b05, DB is Oracle 10g
new install of roller 3.0 onto a clean install of DB tables, with 3 blogs each 
with 3 entries

I login
select new entry on the blog i wanna create a new entry for
enter something in the title
enter something in the Summary
click post to weblog

the next page says
"Changes saved"
and 3 lines lower

Status            Published (Last updated 01/12/06 11:08)

but on the right-hand side, where you have listed the pending entries, Recent 
Drafts and Recent Entries, the new entry is not there, and going to 
/blogs/bmcblog/entry/20061201 i get a Tomcat 404 error page.

same behaviour when creating a new entry with title, summary, content - NOT selecting a 
Pub Time, and doing a save as draft is says "Changes saved" and
Status  Draft (Last updated 01/12/06 11:26)

but, again, nothing on the right-hand side


Ah... Oracle!



Sack trace for the first instance:

I'm not an Oracle user, but I've heard that Oracle counts the empty
string as a NULL. Perhaps an Oracle user could step in now and explain
how they worked around the problem.

If I had to guess at a workaround, I'd suggest using ALTER TABLE
statement to make title, summary and text nullable.

I haven't encountered that problem before and I can't reproduce it.
Please provide some details about your system. What O/S, Java version,
app server and database? What is the stack trace you see in the logs?
