I am trying to install Roller 3.0 on Win XP with MySql 5.1.11 with UTF8,
Tomcat 5.5.17 and Java 1.4.2_08.
Followed install guide.
Unzipped apache-roller-3.0-incubating.zip into C:\Roller.
Added contents of required-jars-roller-3.0-incubating.zip to WEB-INF/lib
directory, except for mail.jar and activation.jar which I added to D:\Apache
Group\Tomcat 5.5\common\lib.
Add the file mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar to the common\lib
directory.
Created user scott/tiger on MySql, granted all permissions and ran
createdb.sql script. This ran successfully.
Created roller.xml as described in install guide and updated server.xml to
add URIEncoding="UTF-8".
Created roller_data/uploads and roller_data/search-index directories and
changed references in roller.properties to point there.
Modified hibernate.cfg.xml file to use MySQL5Dialect.
Added CATALINA_HOME and %ROLLER% environment variables.
When starting up tomcat, in the roller.log everything looks good, then I
get:

It fails in IndexManagerImpl with a null pointer which causes context
failure. Everything is downhill after that.
Does anyone know why this basic installation should be failing?
Thanks.
