I'm trying to port my servlets from JServ 1.1.2 to Tomcat 3.1. Most of them have
worked fine; however, I cannot get the Novell GroupWise WebAccess servlet to function
properly. It worked fine under JServ 1.1.2. This was on the same machine with the
same JDK 1.2.2 installation. I have verified that all of the .jar files are in the
classpath, and that the init arguments are properly entered into web.xml.
Here is the error message from tomcat.log:
Context log: path="" Error in webacc init(): null java.lang.NullPointerException

Unfortunately, Novell will not support this platform. However, they assert that their
servlets should run on any servlet container meeting the following:
- Compatible with Java Servlet Development Kit (JSDK) 2.0
- Compatible with Java Development Kit (JDK) 1.1.6 or above
Does anyone have a clue as to why this servlet won't load?
Thanks.
