[appengine-java] Re: java.lang.NullPointerException cannot be cast to javax.servlet.ServletException

2009-10-19 Thread Marc Guillemot

Hi,

any progress on this issue?

Is it possible that it comes from a bug in Jasper, not able to recognize 
RuntimeException occurring in a PrivilegedExceptionAction?

// org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl

public void handlePageException(final Throwable t) throws IOException,
 ServletException {
   if (t == null)
 throw new NullPointerException("null Throwable");

   if (SecurityUtil.isPackageProtectionEnabled()) {
 try {
   AccessController.doPrivileged(
   new PrivilegedExceptionAction() {
 public Void run() throws Exception {
   doHandlePageException(t);
   return null;
 }
   });
 } catch (PrivilegedActionException e) {
   Exception ex = e.getException();
   if (ex instanceof IOException) {
 throw (IOException) ex;
   } else {
 throw (ServletException) ex; <-- here?
   }
 }
   } else {
 doHandlePageException(t);
   }

}

Cheers,
Marc.

Yes, this is:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31171

We need to bundle a later version of Jasper with the App Engine SDK to fix
this.

2009-10-19 Thread Marc Guillemot

This seems to be a really old issue that relates to something 
different... or do you mean that GAE uses a 5 years old version of Jasper?

I've just look at the current sources of PageContextImpl
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/trunk/java/org/apache/jasper/runtime/PageContextImpl.java
and it seems to me that the problem still exists there.

Cheers,
Marc.

Ah, you're right actually.  I hadn't looked closely enough at that bug.
We'll have to get the Jasper guys to fix that and then upgrade.

[appengine-java] Re: java.lang.NullPointerException cannot be cast to javax.servlet.ServletException

2009-10-22 Thread Marc Guillemot

Don,

I've tried to produce a unit test to open an issue for Jasper... and failed.

I'm now quite sure that this is a bug in the JVM used for GAE.

The JavaDoc of AccessController.doPrivileged (which is a native method) 
says that it propagates unchecked exceptions and throws a 
PrivilegedActionException only if a *checked* exception was thrown. 
Therefore Jasper code is correct not to await a RuntimeException as a 
PrivilegedActionException can't contain a NullPointerException and GAE's 
JVM is buggy here.

Cheers,
Marc.

Hey there,

I still get this ClassCastException. When will the JVM be fixed?
It's Dec and the issue was raised in Jul. Is there any progress?
