Hi I downloaded and installed a clean Tomcat 5.0.30, and now it started Ok. So I went back and looked at my other Tomcat 5 install, and found that I had some commons-xxx jars and log4J among other things in the common/lib directory. Since we have been suspecious of digester, I removed that one first - No cigar. I then readded that one and remove the next until I finally figured out what causes the problem.
There is a compatibility issue between log4j (1.2.8) and Shale. When I removed my two log4j jars, Shale started ok. Hermod. -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: Wendy Smoak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt: 19. september 2005 16:18 Til: Struts Users Mailing List Emne: Re: [Shale] NullpointerException when running struts-shale-usecas es From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Same problem with latest build - It gives a NPE on 5.0.30 during > startup: > > 2005-09-19 15:48:19 StandardContext[/struts-shale-usecases]Exception > starting filter shale > javax.servlet.ServletException: Error at line 41 char 56: null > ... > ----- Root Cause ----- > java.lang.NullPointerException > at > org.apache.commons.digester.Digester.createSAXException(Digester.java:29 > 19) > > My setup is Sun JDK 1.4.2_09 > Tomcat 5.0.30 - No frills > > It runs OK on 5.5. What OS? It's working fine on both JDK 1.4.2_09 and 1.5.0_01 with Tomcat 5.0.30 on WinXP Pro.
