This message is being caused because the TestWrapper application 
includes a Swing GUI.
You are most likely running from a user who does not have a current X 
DISPLAY
configured.  Java is thus throwing the error you reported because it is 
unable to display
its Swing GUI.

The message is fairly clear, but the stack dump is not very pretty.  I 
will modify the code
so that a nicer error message is displayed.  This will be in the next 
release.

For now try running the TestWrapper application from a console under X.

The NT Service Properties section is not used on Linux or UNIX 
platforms.  However
the wrapper.conf file is designed to be 100% cross platform.  That is 
why they are there
in the Solaris version of the Wrapper.   If you are sure that your 
application will never
be run under Windows, fell free to delete that section.  Having it there 
does no harm
however.
