hey
Is the initialization working properly? are you able
to see that the database conneciton is being achieved
and is being passed over. Then the next thing would be
to check for the session, may be the session is
getting invalidated and hence when you try to retrieve
the Connection, it gets null.
can help you if you tell me something about the above
