Hello: I am trying to set-up Tomcat 3.2.1 as a standalone servlet container for virtual hosts. I downloaded the tomcat 3.2.1 binary distribution, dearchived it, and then made these modifications to server.xml: 1. Changed the HttpContentHandler to port 80 so that it would repond to normal web requests. 2. In the ContextManager section, I added these lines: <Host name="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" > <Context path="" debug="1" docbase="webapps/host1" /> </Host> After starting tomcat, I tried to visit http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and I got this error message: Error: 500 Location: / Internal Servlet Error: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.tomcat.util.FileUtil.isAbsolute(FileUtil.java:289) at org.apache.tomcat.core.Context.getAbsolutePath(Context.java:257) at org.apache.tomcat.core.Context.getRealPath(Context.java:791) at org.apache.tomcat.request.StaticInterceptor.requestMap(StaticInterceptor.java:191) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.processRequest(ContextManager.java:820) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.internalService(ContextManager.java:771) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.service(ContextManager.java:743) at org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler.processConnection(HttpConnectionHandler.java:210) at org.apache.tomcat.service.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:416) at org.apache.tomcat.util.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:498) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:498) Any ideas what is causing this?
