AW: NPE initializing 2.1.6 showcase in Tomcat 6.0.18
Hi.. is that already verified, that the NPE occurs cause of the spaces in the path names? And if - are there any other work arounds than installing tomcat in a different path, cause I have to use a preinstalled tomcat in a path with blank spaces.

I think I found the cause of the problem. (Under Windows XP) - If I install Tomcat under C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat (as the Tomcat Windows service installer does) the NPE occurs - OTOH if I install Tomcat under e.g. C:\java\Tomcat it works fine. It looks like the problem is due to the empty spaces in the directory location of the configuration.

I restarted the showcase several times from Tomcat manager but still got the NPE. I've started it from console (via bat file) maybe that's the case, I will check Nope, works ;-) Regards -- Lukasz http://www.lenart.org.pl/ - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org

I didn't see any other responses, so I'll throw out the obvious answer that may or may not work: Have you tried adding and using a shortcut to that directory (which does not contain spaces) to see if that avoids the issue? -Dale - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org

I agree with Dale Putting ANY characters other than a-z upper/lower and 0-9 and LONG FOLDER NAMES WITH SPACES easily gacks Java read routines so if your CATALINA_HOME is set to C:\PROGRAM FILES WITH SPACES\TOMCAT go to C:\ dir /X /AD find the shortened name e.g. PROGRA~1 and use that for environment variable SET CATALINA_HOME=C:\PROGRA~1\TOMCAT HTH Martin __ Disclaimer and confidentiality note Everything in this e-mail and any attachments relates to the official business of Sender.
