Hi, maybe the problem is not were we thought it was. If you get a NullPointerException a (1) (i mean not somewhere deeper inside 1 but exactly at 1), that can only mean getServletContext() returned false. This may be the case if servelt was not properly initialized. Check your init(ServletConfig config) method of your servlet and check twice it calls it's ancestor's method (super.init(config)) because it's the ancestor which will set the servlet context.
