Yes, that makes no difference,using <sql:getColumn postion="1"/> or <sql:getColumn colName="wanted_text"/>
Maybe it's a bug in Resin 2.0.x ? The thing works correctly in Tomcat 3.2.3 on my localhost. The strangest thing is that when there is exactly one row in the db, it works. In most cases (not with more complex sql queries) I can fix the nullpointer error by modifying the following: in BaseGetterTag.java you have the variable _name. The first time this _name is the column name I'm requesting results from. (eg. wanted_text) (in the sql query) For the second element in the results of the sql query ... _name has become null. Removing _name = null in the release() method fixes this error. (but maybe will introduce other errors) I've not yet found why and where this _name variable is set and why it is set the first time and not set the second time.
