[Pow2acl-users] Problem using pow2acl

[Garry M. <Gar...@uk...>]

Hello,

I trying to use pow2acl(0.95 ) with MySQL.

Database : MySQL 4.1
Tomcat : 5.0.28

I setup my database and made some little change in
Pow2Toolkit.properties  and  dbforms-config.xml.

I am getting the login screen but when I enter any user name or
password it gives me the following error:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	com.pow2.resources.Prefs.getProperty(Prefs.java:177)
	com.pow2.dao.AbstractDAO.<init>(AbstractDAO.java:75)
	com.pow2.user.dao.UserDAO.<init>(UserDAO.java:54)
	com.pow2.user.dao.UserDAO.instance(UserDAO.java:67)
	com.pow2.user.UserManager.getUser(UserManager.java:160)
	com.pow2.struts.actions.LoginAction.perform(LoginAction.java:72)
	com.pow2.acl.struts.action.ACLActionServlet.processActionPerform(ACLActionServlet.java:152)
	org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1585)
	org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doPost(ActionServlet.java:509)
	javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:709)
	javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Thanks,
Garry Mc Hugh

[Pow2acl-users] Problem using pow2acl

[Sudeep D'S. <su...@wi...>]

Hi,

I just downloaded the pow2acl ver 0.95 and I am trying to set it up.

Database : MySQL
Tomcat : 4.0.1
JDK 1.4

I have loaded the database with the sql (after some bit of trouble ;-)). I
have used my own mysql jdbc driver (put it in WEB-INF/lib) and have
configured the entries in dbforms-config.xml and the Pow2Toolkit.properties
as follows

Pow2Toolkit.properties 

jdbc.driver.class = org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver
jdbc.driver.url   = jdbc:mysql://hydrea:3306/acl
jdbc.user         = sudeep
jdbc.passwd       = sudeep

dbforms-config.xml

    <dbconnection
      name     = "jdbc:mysql://hydrea:3306/acl"
      isJndi   = "false"
      conClass = "org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver"
      username = "sudeep"
      password = "sudeep"/>

But now, I am getting the login screen but when I enter any user name or
password it gives me the following error

type Exception report
