Error Building Sample Site Files

[Rene Hinojosa]

Having trouble building sample site files. When Build or Build All is selected a new window opens with the progress bar. After a few seconds, get this message:  Cannot start uPortal

Sorry, but a problem is preventing the Portal from starting. The error must be corrected by system administrators. Try again later.

Checked the portal.log and see the following:

ERROR [Thread-4] jasig.portal.[] May/05 08:51:52 - Programming error

I haven't tested HyperContent with uPortal 2.3.x yet.  I've never seen this error before!  I'll install 2.3.1 and see if I can duplicate the problem.
