Re: Can't load server.xml message

2005-01-02 Thread Sean Schofield
Thanks for all the help.  I tried the server-minimal.xml file a second
time and it worked.  I'm not sure what was happening.  I also
installed JavaWebServicesDeveloperPack and some other stuff that might
have been causing an issue.

It was very bizarre because at one point, I had the minimal server.xml
in conf but got the same message.  I agree that the NPE was because it
couldn't open the file for some ereason.  I don't think it was
permissions because I'm using XP.

Anyways, it seems to be working for now.  Thanks for the suggestions!

Can't load server.xml message

2005-01-01 Thread Sean Schofield
I am an experienced Tomcat user who is all of a sudden having trouble
running Tomcat on my home machine.  I am running Tomcat 5.0.28 and I
get a Null Pointer when trying to start Tomcat.

I have JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME configured.

The very first line in the output says Can't load server.xml
(actually the second line says the same thing as well.)  I tried
chaning to the minimal server.xml as well but no luck.

The stack trace seems to indicate a NullPointer exception at
Catalina.await line 619.  I have tried looking this up on the mailing
lists, but incredibly, nobody seems to have experienced this problem!

Anyways, any insight that could be provided would be greatly
appreciated.  I've never had this problem before ...

TIA,

sean

Hi,
You seem to have added quite a few lines into your
catalina.sh.  The stock script ends at line 287 for
me.  Can you tell us what modifications you have made?
Funny that I can not find how the server.xml is
loaded by the DigesterFactory.java nor by
Bootstrap.java when I browsed their source code.

I had this problem once when I inadvertently moved server.xml from 
/conf.  I think the error message means what it says -- it cant't read 
the file.  Are you sure it is in the right place and the user running tc 
has permission to read the file?

Re: Can't load server.xml message

2005-01-01 Thread sven morales
  I looked in the wrong source codes.  I should have
looked at Catalina.java.  Here is the link:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-tomcat-catalina/catalina/src/share/org/apache/catalina/startup/Catalina.java?rev=1.35view=log

Anyhow, the await() call is at line 578 but thats
after the server has started.  It is after these lines
562 long t2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
563 log.info(Server startup in  + (t2 -
t1) +  ms);
  some test if useShutdownHook...
578 if (await) {..
Check your log file if it has made it this far.

Re: Can't load server.xml message

2005-01-01 Thread Phil Steitz
If you look at the 5.0.28 src distro, you can see that line 519 of 
Catalina.java includes a reference to the server object. Most likely the 
npe is happening because the server initialization is failing.

The first error (Can't load server.xml) looks like it is generated by 
the load method when it can't open the file.
