[WebMacro-user] WebMacro.properties & NullPointerException

[viju <vij...@ya...>]

Hi,
   
  I'm facing some issue with webmacro based webapp deployed in tomcat 5.0.0.28. When ever try loading my welcome page from servlet I get the following excpetion 

java.lang.NullPointerException   org.webmacro.servlet.WMServlet.doPost(WMServlet.java:230)   javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:709)   javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)   sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor99.invoke(Unknown Source)   sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25)   java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:324)   org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil$1.run(SecurityUtil.java:239)   java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)   javax.security.auth.Subject.doAsPrivileged(Subject.java:500)   org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil.execute(SecurityUtil.java:268)   org.apache.catalina.security.SecurityUtil.doAsPrivilege(SecurityUtil.java:157)  

The tomcat log says the WebMacro.properties file must be classpath. But I have copied this file into 

tomcat/shared/lib folder. I think the Classloader for the web application should find this property file 

under this folder. 

So can somebody help understand what could be the issue here?

 

thanks in advance
