Using a variety of tutorials I found online and the documentation for
o.a.c.startup.Tomcat, I created the following main method to start up an
embedded Tomcat. I'm using 7.0.37 Tomcat JARs.
public static void main(String... arguments) throws Exception
{
Tomcat tomcat = new Tomcat();
tomcat.setBaseDir(".basedir");
tomcat.setPort(8973);
tomcat.enableNaming();
tomcat.init();
tomcat.start();
System.out.println("X: " +
tomcat.getConnector().getService().getContainer());
tomcat.getServer().await();
}
The System.out.println is for debugging purposes, because I'm getting a
NullPointerException. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, because about an
hour of Googling turned up precisely zero results of anyone who's getting a
NullPointerException in MapperListener#findDefaultHost. For some reason, it
looks like a Container is never created. What gives? Here's the full output of
running the JAR file:
