<pre>&gt; I'm trying to install JSPWiki for the first time.  The install
steps
&gt; are pretty basic.... download the WAR and put it in webapps.  Run
&gt; Install.jsp....
&gt; 
&gt; I've tried it on two different servers that I own.  On both servers,
I
&gt; get:a null pointer exception (see info below).
&gt; 
&gt; Kinda hard to mess up two simple steps.  But apparently I'm missing
&gt; something.  What am I doing wrong?
&gt; 
&gt; Thanks.
