Null pointer in class loader after attempting to run invalid servlet file

           Summary: Null pointer in class loader after attempting to run
                    invalid servlet file
           Product: Tomcat 3
           Version: 3.2.3 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 9x
            Status: NEW

          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


If a .class file for a servlet has extra characters (CR/LF in my case), the 
following error occurs when trying to run the servlet:

Internal Servlet Error:

After correcting the .class file, the same error continues until the server is 
restarted.
