Re: tomcat 5.5.7 won't start because of NPE

The real problem is the lines above it. Either the server.xml is hosed, 
missing, corrupted or Tomcat doesn't have rights to it.

What OS are you running on?

Using the out of box config files and webapps:
java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode, sharing)
This appears on catalina.out:
