I've been playing with the RC1a release candidate and came across a problem particular to my environment which took me a while to figure out. When trying to run a sample I was getting ...
C:\Release\apache-tuscany-sca-1.0-incubating\tuscany-sca-1.0-incubating\samples\calculator>ant run Buildfile: build.xml run: [java] Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.stream.FactoryConfigurationError: Provider null could not be instantiat ed: java.lang.NullPointerException [java] at javax.xml.stream.FactoryFinder.newInstance(FactoryFinder.java:75) [java] at javax.xml.stream.FactoryFinder.find(FactoryFinder.java:136) [java] at javax.xml.stream.FactoryFinder.find(FactoryFinder.java:92) [java] at javax.xml.stream.XMLOutputFactory.newInstance(XMLOutputFactory.java:98) [java] at org.apache.tuscany.sca.host.embedded.impl.ReallySmallRuntimeBuilder.createContributionService(ReallyS mallRuntimeBuilder.java:176) [java] at org.apache.tuscany.sca.host.embedded.impl.ReallySmallRuntime.start(ReallySmallRuntime.java:114) [java] at org.apache.tuscany.sca.host.embedded.impl.DefaultSCADomain.<init>(DefaultSCADomain.java:101) [java] at org.apache.tuscany.sca.host.embedded.SCADomain.createNewInstance(SCADomain.java:230) [java] at org.apache.tuscany.sca.host.embedded.SCADomain.newInstance(SCADomain.java:69) [java] at calculator.CalculatorClient.main(CalculatorClient.java:31) [java] Java Result: 1 BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 1 second C:\Release\apache-tuscany-sca-1.0-incubating\tuscany-sca-1.0-incubating\samples\calculator>ant run The problem was that I had at some time in the past, altered by IBM 1.5 JRE environment so that it had a jaxp.properties file (I had followed the instructions in the jaxp.properties.sample file). Removing the jaxp.properties file allowed the sample to execute. I'll see about adding this to an FAQ on the wiki.
